A yorker next, and only a single from it. David gets a wide ball and crashes it over covers for a four. It is getting closer and closer for MI.

Trent Boult continues. Tilak Varma deploys the scoop to get a four. Boult responds with a slow bouncer to earn a dot ball. A single brings David to the crease. David gets a four last ball to bring the equation to 32 in last two overs.

Holder with the 17th. Tilak manages an edge and it runs away to the third man fence. Holder gifts a full toss and David dismisses it away for a six.

Trent Boult with the 16th over. He gets a yorker bang on to sneak in a dot ball. Another yorker against SKY and Boult has given away only 2 runs in the first three. SKY goes for another scoop and Sandeep Sharma runs a good 20 metres back to hold on to a brilliant catch. That is the end of a flying knock by SKY.

Jason Holder is back. A high full toss to start and SKY gets to his fifty with a couple. Dot ball to follow up and a single next ball. A wide and a single brings SKY to strike and he smokes a four to shore up the over.

Chahal goes down the off side and SKY carves it behind point for a four. Tilak gets into the act with a reverse hit, which too goes for a four. Tilak steps down to lift it above long off for a six. These two are getting MI back into the game.

Kuldip Sen is the new bowler and SKY welcomes him with a flick-on six. He smashes a three more boundaries to put the pressure on the RR bowler. Oh wait. It gets worse. Kuldip has overstepped. Thankfully for him, just a single in the freehit.

Chahal gets a crack with the ball. SKY is the big wicket now for RR and Samson is going after him with the leg spin of Chahal. Just three runs from that over.

Ashwin strikes again. It is Trent Boult with the catch, again. Cam Green goes for the big one and he holes out to Boult at deep midwicket. Great catch under pressure there from the Kiwi. Tilak Varma is the new batter. Remarkable over from Ashwin, just three runs there.

Jason Holder given his first over. Two full tosses to start with, but no damage. Arrows one into SKY’s pads and is lifted away with ease for a four. He follows it up with an audacious scoop over the keeper for a six. He is providing this chase with the needed momentum.

Ashwin gets his man. Loops it up and Kishan can only mishit it to Boult. Kishan is disgusted with the his shot. SKY is the new batter and he straight away gets into the action with his trademark paddle sweep shot. Flies away for a six.

Chahal gets his first over and Green goes after him straight away. Steps down and smashes him straight over his head for a maximum. Kishan too steps down to score a four as MI looks to accelerate further.

Ashwin continues. Kishan steps down and Ashwin rifles it down the leg side, but Samson can’t gather it. Missed stumping chance there. Just four singles in that over.

Sandeep Sharma continues. Kishan gets him away for a boundary to the long off fence. Green too joins in, with a drive through the covers which screams to the fence. Mumbai well on course for a big chase here.

Samson brings in Ashwin, who would love to go up against the left-handed Kishan. He had the over under control, until Green stepped onto the offstump line to slog sweep him for a six.

Another knuckle ball from Sandeep Sharma and Green gets away with this one. He keeps things neat and tidy to put the pressure on MI batters. Just

Boult almost scalps new man Green. The ball flies just past Jaiswal after a miscue from Green. The Aussie responds with three authoritative hits to the fence. One through covers, the next straight past the bowler and the last past point.

Sandeep Sharma is Boult’s new ball partner.

String start from the right-arm pacer. Just two runs of the first five balls. He delivers a knuckle ball and Rohit Sharma is caught off-guard and it clips the bails on the way. Huge wicket for RR.

Trent Boult with his trademark first over. Starts with a wide against Rohit Sharma. He induces an edge out of Kishan, but it flies wide off second slip for a four. He adds another four with a cover drive. Good start for MI.

Arshad Khan with the last over. Ashwin gets a single to give the strike to Jaiswal, who smacks it through the covers for a four. Arshad responds with a yorker, but Jaiswal caresses it past third man for a four. The RR batter gets a very high full toss and all he can do is give a return catch. Third umpire looks at it and confirms it is not a no ball.

Ashwin pulls one to the fence to add more misery to MI. RR gets to 212, mostly thanks to Yashasvi Jaiswal’s marvelous knock.

Archer with the penultimate. Ashwin takes a single first ball. Archer deceives Jaiswal with a couple of slower ones. But Jaiswal gets back on it with a couple of sixes. The first one straight down and the second down the leg side.

Dhruv Jurel attempts a pull shot in front of square and it ends in the hands of Tilak Varma. Mumbai keeps hitting back with wickets at the right time.

Jaiswal goes across again and clips a low full toss for a four. 96 now for the youngster. Another four to midwicket and that is his 100. The fourth youngest to get to a 100 in IPL.

Arshad drifts to Hetmyer’s pads and it is easily clipped away for a six. But his stint is short-lived as he guides a short ball into the hands of SKY at deep mid wicket. Jurel is the new batter. Jaiswal goes across his stumps to pull one over fine leg fence for a six. He is into his 90s.

Riley Meredith with his third. Just four singles of the first four balls, before Jaiswal cracks a full toss above long on for a six. This is his highest score in IPL. Meredith gets a bouncer in and it is a dot ball.

Archer is back and he starts with a wide. But he dismisses Holder next up with a slower ball. Easy catch for David at long off. Hetmyer is the new batter and he is kept at the crease without scoring by a charged-up Archer.

Green reintroduced. Holder finally gets going. Green offers a short one and Holder carves it over mid wicket for a six. Green goes way down the off side. It is a wide and Kishan lets it go and RR sneaks in a few byes. Jaiswal adds a four to make it an even better over.

Jaiswal brings out the reverse hit against Chawla. Puts it to the cover fence. Chawla goes full and Jaiswal steps out and pummels it straight for another four.

Mumbai has fought its way back into the game with quick wickets. But Jaiswal keeps going. Gets a four off Meredith, with an edge. Follows it up with a ramps shot for the same result.

Chawls into his third over. Jaiswal steps down and gets a boundary and reaches his fifth. Chawla responds with a quicker one. It is a googly and Padikkal misreads and he is bowled.

Arshad Khan with his first over. Jaiswal premeditates and scoops one over the keeper for a four. Arshad goes off pace, pitching it on good length and Samson can only clip it to deep mid wicket. Big wicket for Mumbai. Padikkal is the new batter.

Buttler goes first ball and Chawla with the breakthrough as he doesn’t connect well and hands a straightforward catch at long-on. SIX! Sanju Samson comes in and smashes a maximum first ball, clearing long-on. Samson goes for another big heave next ball and misses. There’s a huge appeal for caught behind and it is given. Samson reviews it immediately and he survives. A couple of singles to end the over.

Kumar Kartikeya into the attack. SIX! Buttler finally cuts loose. Short and Buttler rocks back and sends this over wide long-on for a maximum.

Rohit Sharma brings in Piyush Chawla to stop the onslaught from RR openers. He succeeds in doing that for the first five balls, before Jaiswal smacks a short one into the stands.

A very high full toss from Meredith to start with and Jaiswal lofts it above mid on for a four. Meredith recovers with a couple of yorkers, before offering Jaiswal a few full length ones, which are dispatched without any hesitation for boundaries.

Archer continues. Buttler gets a couple of boundaries, both thanks to Archer messing up his line, drifting down the leg. The pacer overcompensates, giving Buttler too much width and he drives it past point for another four.

Cam Green continues. Again begins with a few dot balls. He goes down Buttler’s leg side and there seems to be a sound. Umpire gives it out. Buttler reviews and there is no bat involved and he survives. Buttles finally gets off strike, in his eighth ball.

Jofra Archer with his first over. Offers widdth and bounce and Jaiswal clips it away for two. Archer goes in with a bouncer and it is pulled away for a six, again by Jaiswal. And it is no ball. Just a single of the freehit. Archer gets it in control in the last few balls, beating Jaiswal’s outside edge twice.

Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal to open the innings for RR.

Cam Green is the new ball operator for MI. Three dot balls to start with, before Jaiswal pulls one over fine leg fence for the first six of the evening. RR wastes a review on a wide call.
