| 0.1 : 0.1: Trent Boult to Jos Buttler, FOUR! Buttler and Rajasthan are off the mark with a boundary! Boul starts with a ball too straight. It is on the pads, Buttler clips it fine down the leg side and gets off the mark with a boundary. |
| 1.3 : 1.3: Jasprit Bumrah to Jos Buttler, FOUR! Intentional or not? Does not matter as Buttler will take the runs! Good length ball around off, Buttler looks to defend with soft hands. Makes the adjustment at the last minute as he slightly opens the face of his bat and the ball goes past slip and short third man off the outer half of the bat and to the fence. |
| 2.4 : 2.4: Trent Boult to Yashasvi Jaiswal, FOUR! Jaiswal gets his first boundary of the day! Bouncer from Boult. It is bowled at over 141 kph. It hurries onto Jaiswal. The youngster pulls but not in full control. He hits it in fornt of square on the leg side. There is no one in the deep so the young man fetches a boundary. |
| 4.4: Jayant Yadav to Jos Buttler, FOUR! This time Buttler charges and connects too! Short around off, Buttler comes down the track and hits it over mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 4.5 : 4.5: Jayant Yadav to Jos Buttler, SIX! KABOOM! First maximum of the day and it comes from the bat of Jos Buttler! Short on off, Buttler decides to stay inside his crease this time. He rocks on his back foot and smashes it over the cow corner region for a biggie. |
| 5.4 : 5.4: Nathan Coulter-Nile to Yashasvi Jaiswal, FOUR! Nice and strong shot from Yashasvi Jaiswal! Reminds of Sourav Ganguly! A length delivery is served in the line of the stumps, Jaiswal moves back to create room and hammers it over extra cover. |
| 5.5 : 5.5: Nathan Coulter-Nile to Yashasvi Jaiswal, SIX! Good hit and towards the big side of the ground as well. This is now the best Powerplay for them by some distance. NCN digs in a short ball around middle, Yashasvi rides the bounce and pulls it massively over square leg. |
| 6.2 : 6.2: Jayant Yadav to Jos Buttler, SIX! Buttler has found his groove now! Short around off, Buttler goes on his back foot and hits it over the cow corner region for another maximum. |
| 7.3 : 7.3: Rahul Chahar to Jos Buttler, SIX! Buttler has nailed it. Chahar drags his length short and around leg, Buttler goes deep inside the crease and pulls it disdainfully over square leg. Jos is in the six-hitting mood. Ominous signs for Mumbai! |
| 7.4 : 7.4: Rahul Chahar to Jos Buttler, OUT! Stumped! Rahul Chahar has his revenge immediately. A lovely delivery from the leg spinner. Once again he possibly sensed the charge from the batsman. Slows it up in the air and lands it around middle, Buttler wears his skates to reach the pitch of the ball but fails to do so. Still, the Englishman goes on with his shot, swings his blade across the line but the ball lands, grips and spins past his bat. Quinton de Kock calmly takes the bails off. The square l |
| 7.5 : 7.5: Rahul Chahar to Sanju Samson, FOUR! Smashed away! Flatter delivery, short and wide outside off, Samson could not have asked for better delivery to open his account. He just rocks back and whacks it to the deep extra cover boundary. |
| 8.1 : 8.1: Krunal Pandya to Sanju Samson, FOUR! Not from the middle of the bat but still enough! Floated and full around middle, Sanju advances down the track for a big heave-ho, connects it from the inner half of his bat and it flies over mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 8.6 : 8.6: Krunal Pandya to Sanju Samson, FOUR! Started the over with a boundary and ends it the same way. So much similarity that it was also not from the middle of the bat. Shorter delivery and on middle, Samson hangs back to pull and it speeds off the inner half to bisect the two fielders in the deep on the leg side. A boundary at square leg results. |
| 9.3 : 9.3: Rahul Chahar to Yashasvi Jaiswal, SIX! Jaiswal shows his range there! Floated and full ball on middle, turning away after landing, Yashasvi takes his front leg out of the way and smokes it against the spin over mid-wicket. High and handsome. |
| 9.5 : 9.5: Rahul Chahar to Yashasvi Jaiswal, OUT! Soft dismissal! Chahar roars in delight. Hit him for a six and he will get the revenge immediately. Did that with Jos and now Yashasvi has also fallen. Floated ball, landing full and around leg, Yashasvi tries to work it on the leg side but closes the face of the bat a shade early. It pops out off the leading edge and Rahul accepts the return catch gleefully. An entertaining knock by Yashasvi Jaiswal is over and now Rajasthan have both their openers i |
| 11.2 : 11.2: Rahul Chahar to Shivam Dube, FOUR! A much-needed boundary for Dube. He was going very slow and slowing the tempo. This should get him going. Floated on off, Dube hits it across between long on and deep mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 12.3 : 12.3: Nathan Coulter-Nile to Shivam Dube, FOUR! Stand and deliver! Full ball around off, Dube does not move much as he thwarts it through extra cover for a boundary. |
| 14.2 : 14.2: Jayant Yadav to Shivam Dube, SIX! Dube needs more of these now. Short on middle, Dube gets on his back foot and smokes it over mid-wicket for a biggie. |
| 15.2: Trent Boult to Sanju Samson, FOUR! Easily put away! Boult goes searching for a yorker but ends up serving a low full toss on middle, Samson clears his front leg and hammers it down the ground for a boundary at long on. |
| 15.3 : 15.3: Trent Boult to Sanju Samson, STREAKY FOUR! Samson has been flying. A length ball angling away from the batsman, Samson camps back to crack it through the line but it takes the bottom edge and runs wide of short third man. Doesn't look intentional. |
| 17.4 : 17.4: Trent Boult to Sanju Samson, OUT! CLEANED UP! That's a top delivery by Trent Boult. He spears in a 140.7 kph yorker, landing on middle, Samson hangs on the back foot to whip it on the leg side but misses to find his stumps shattered. A timely breakthrough for Mumbai as Sanju can prove to be dangerous in the end overs. |
| 17.6 : 17.6: Trent Boult to Shivam Dube, SIX! Dube finally middles one shot and sends it packing. Boult tries to serve a yorker on middle but it turns out to be a fuller length in the hitting zone, Dube clears his front leg and launches it over mid-wicket. Spoils a very good over from the Kiwi. |
| 18.5 : 18.5: Jasprit Bumrah to Shivam Dube, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Bumrah tries to spear in a yorker on middle but it turns out to be a full toss, Dube is deep inside the crease, not expecting a friendly delivery. He tries to swing it over the leg side but is late into it. Ends up chipping a return catch to the bowler and Bumrah makes no mistake. An uncharacteristic knock by Dube is over. |
| 19.1 : 19.1: Nathan Coulter-Nile to Riyan Parag, LUCKY FOUR! They all count. Fuller in length and outside off, Parag throws his bat at it and it goes off the inside edge, past the stumps and the keeper, for a boundary at fine leg. |
| 19.6 : 19.6: Nathan Coulter-Nile to David Miller, FOUR! RAJASTHAN END ON 171/4! A low full toss around leg, Miller steps towards the leg side and drills it down the ground for a boundary. No chance for long off. |
| 5.6 : 5.6: Chris Morris to Rohit Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Soft dismissal and Rohit is out of here. Mumbai looked in control and this wicket has come against the run of play. A surprising but delightful end to the Powerplay for Rajasthan. Mumbai are 49/1 at the end of the first phase. Full on middle, Rohit pumps it uppishly straight to mid on. Chetan Sakariya does not even have to move an inch to take the catch. |
| 6.3 : 6.3: Rahul Tewatia to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR! Supreme from Suryakumar Yadav! One of the toughest shots to play but SKY has played it without beating a sweat. Tossed up on middle, Suryakumar gets outside the line of the ball and goes inside-out over extra cover for a boundary. |
| 6.4 : 6.4: Rahul Tewatia to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR! Lovely from Surykumar Yadav! Short but not very short around off. Suryakumar gets on his back foot and manages to punch it through point for a boundary. |
| 6.6 : 6.6: Rahul Tewatia to Quinton de Kock, FOUR! Quinton de Kock is on the march today! Expensive start for Tewatia. 14 off his first. The last ball is tossed up on middle, de Kock premeditates his shot. He gets in a position to reverse sweep it and sends it behind point for a boundary. |
| 7.1 : 7.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Suryakumar Yadav, EDGED AND FOUR! Nothing is going Rajasthan's way! Good length ball outside off, Suryakumar Yadav looks to drive it on the up but gets an outside edge which goes away from third man for a boundary. |
| 2.3 : 2.3: Chetan Sakariya to Quinton de Kock, FOUR! Crunched! Full in length and wide outside off, de Kock reaches out for it and leans into the drive as he crunches it through covers. |
| 3.1 : 3.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Quinton de Kock, FOUR! Well executed! Very, very delicate from Quinton de Kock. Lots of skills and timing. A length ball outside off, de Kock opens the face of the bat late and threads the gap between short third man and backward point. |
| 3.2 : 3.2: Mustafizur Rahman to Quinton de Kock, SIX! Uses the pace and the angle of the bowler this time. This time it's a full length ball on middle and leg, angling down, de Kock walks across the stumps and thwacks it over fine leg. Knock knock - de Kock, flashes the giantscreen! |
| 4.2: Jaydev Unadkat to Rohit Sharma, SIX! The Hitman connects well! Mumbai will hope that breaks the shackles for him. Short of a good length delivery around off, Rohit picks it up early, rides the bounce and nails his pull shot in front of square leg for a biggie. |
| 5.1 : 5.1: Chris Morris to Quinton de Kock, SIX! SMOKED! That was six the moment it left the bat. Shortish ball around off, de Kock swivels with his pull shot and whacks it over mid-wicket for a biggie. |
| 8.2 : 8.2: Jaydev Unadkat to Quinton de Kock, FOUR! De Kock has finally arrived this season! He is enjoying this Delhi track to the fullest. Short on middle and leg, de Kock swivels and pulls it away from the fine leg fielder for a boundary. |
| 8.6 : 8.6: Jaydev Unadkat to Quinton de Kock, FOUR! Easily done! Full toss on middle, de Kock does not try to hit it hard. He just times and places it away from long on for a boundary straight down the ground. |
| 9.2 : 9.2: Chris Morris to Suryakumar Yadav, OUT! CAUGHT! Morris does the trick once again as he gets rid of Suryakumar Yadav. Another tame dismissal but Rajasthan will take it gladly. Suryakumar once again looks good out in the middle, gets a start but fails to capitalize on it. Fuller ball on middle, Suryakumar looks to play his stylish flick but he hits it uppishly and straight to short mid-wicket. Buttler there makes no mistake and takes a simple catch. |
| 11.6 : 11.6: Jaydev Unadkat to Krunal Pandya, FOUR! Timing and placement, wow! Fuller in length and outside off, Krunal times his drive sweetly and places it through the gap between extra cover and mid off. Glorious. 66 needed off 48 balls. |
| 14.1 : 14.1: Rahul Tewatia to Krunal Pandya, SIX! See you later, alligator! Krunal Pandya has deposited way into the stand. Floated on off, Krunal slogs it down the ground for a huge six. |
| 15.1: Chris Morris to Krunal Pandya, FOUR! Again it's a good start to the over for Mumbai. A low dipping full toss outside leg, Pandya does well to get bat on ball and places it superbly behind square leg for a boundary. The 50-run stand comes up! |
| 16.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Krunal Pandya, IN THE AIR AND SIX! Full ball around the pads, Krunal swings hard at it. It goes high in the air and gets just over the ropes for a biggie at deep mid-wicket. |
| 16.4 : 16.4: Mustafizur Rahman to Krunal Pandya, OUT! BOWLED! The Fizz strikes and has the last laugh. It has been a strong comeback from Mustafizur in this over after being hit for a six. A very full ball and this time it is pace on from Mustafizur Rahman. Krunal swings but misses and the ball sneaks under the bat to disturb the stumps. 26 needed in 20, are Rajasthan still in this or is it too little too late? |
| 17.2 : 17.2: Chris Morris to Kieron Pollard, FOUR! Brilliant from Pollard! Low full toss, almost a yorker. Nothing wrong with the delivery. Pollard is just too good. He goes deep in his crease and wrists it through mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 17.1 : 17.1: Chris Morris to Kieron Pollard, SIX! How easily has Pollard done that? Shorter around off, Pollard smacks it over covers with the minimum of fuss for a biggie. |
| 18.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Quinton de Kock, FOUR! Valiant chase from Tewatia but to no avail. Full around off, de Kock hits it over extra cover. Tewatia runs from long off and puts a dive but to no avail. |
| 18.3 : 18.3: Mustafizur Rahman to Kieron Pollard, FOUR! Pollard puts the finishing touches in this game! Mumbai are back to winning ways! On the pads, Pollard clips it through fine leg. There is no one in the deep. Convincing win for Mumbai, they WIN BY 7 WICKETS! |
