The team floundered in powerplay and finished with 164/6, at least 20 runs short. The collapse was caused by Jasprit Bumrah who took two wickets in a maiden over and earned 3/14. Skipper Virat Kohli fell for 9 and AB de Villiers for 15.

Mumbai’s chase had a setback initially with the fall of two wickets. But Suryakumar Yadav (79 runs off 43 balls) smashed an unbeaten 79 even as wickets kept falling around him.

Saurabh Tiwary was caught by Devdutt Padikkal in Mohammed Siraj’s over. Ishan Kishan (25) was felled by Chahal caught by Chris Morris. Mohammed Siraj took the wicket of Quinton de Kock (18).
