| Strategic Time-Out! Mumbai are scoring at a brisk pace. They did lose Quinton de Kock early, but Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav are looking in fine form. If they continue like this, then it will be a very good platform for the middle order to go big. Delhi need to break this partnership and try to put Mumbai under pressure.

| 8.6 : Amit Mishra to Hardik Pandya, OUT! CAUGHT! Mishra gets his second wicket! Flighted delivery on middle, Pandya lofts it over mid on but does not get the distance on it. It goes towards long on where Steven Smith takes a simple catch. Poor batting from Pandya, he didn't even look to get a feel of things. He likes to put pressure on the bowlers straightaway but has perished this time. End of a wonderful over for Delhi. |
| 9.1 : Ravichandran Ashwin to Ishan Kishan, Tossed up delivery on middle, Kishan defends it off the back foot. |
| 0.0 : Will Krunal Pandya replace his brother out in the middle? Yes he does. Ravichandran Ashwin (2-0-17-0) comes into the attack. |

| 10.4 : Kieron Pollard is the next batsman in. |
| Lalit Yadav to Krunal Pandya, OUT! BOWLED! Lalit Yadav gets into the act and Mumbai slide further here! Flatter ball, lands outside off and comes in with the angle. It is too close to his body but Krunal Pandya looks to run it down to third man. Ends up getting the inside edge back onto the stumps. |
| 10.5 : Lalit Yadav to Kieron Pollard, Flatter ball, around off. Pollard defends. |
| 10.6 : Lalit Yadav to Kieron Pollard, Shorter ball, lands on off. Kieron Pollard whips it to deep mid-wicket for one. |

Another wonderful googly, lands on a length outside off. Pollard doesn't pick it and is hit on the pads. The umpire raises his finger right away. Pollard has a chat with his partner and decides to review. Nothing on the Ultra Edge and umpire's call on Ball Tracker means that he walks back to the dressing room. |

| 12.6 : STRATEGIC TIME-OUT! Delhi have bowled well here. They have taken the crucial wicket of Rohit Sharma and have made a comeback into this game. Amit Mishra has been superb after his first over. He has taken 3 wickets till now. On the other hand, Mumbai lost Rohit Sharma and have collapsed all of a sudden. They have Ishan Kishan out there but he needs support from other batsmen. Also, Marcus Stoinis is back on. 2-0-13-1 are his figures so far. |
| 13.1 : Marcus Stoinis to Ishan Kishan, Starts with a back of a length ball, outside off. Cut away to sweeper cover for one. |

| Great performance by Delhi with the ball. They kept things tight and picked up wickets at critical moments. Mumbai had a poor day with the blade. |
| Delhi were great with the ball. They picked up de Kock early and right when a partnership was building, Amit Mishra came in and brought them back on the track. Lalit Yadav bowled very well in the middle overs and so did Ashwin. Stoinis too had a good spell in the Powerplay. Rabada was expensive in his first over, but came back strongly at the death and kept things tight. Avesh Khan continued to impress in this season. They would be mighty pleased with the way they have performed. |
| Amit Mishra is down for an interview. He says that he is happy with his performance. Adds that he looked to bowl well and that is why he got wickets. Mentions that Hardik Pandya would go for big runs and he bowled to him accordingly. Further says that their batsmen should be able to chase down this total. |
| Can Delhi chase it down? It's a low total but Mumbai has been exceptional with the ball. Also, Delhi batters have not yet played at this ground so it would be interesting to see how they approach it. An exciting period of play coming your way, don't go anywhere... |
| Mumbai's batting was poor. Quinton de Kock fell early and then Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav steadied the ship. But once they fell, the rest of the batters fell quickly. Pollard and Hardik had no answers to Amit Mishra, whereas Krunal Pandya fell to Lalit Yadav. Ishan Kishan looked to take the innings deep but got out just when it was the right time to accelerate. In the end, they managed to get to a below-par score. |
