Nathan Coulter-Nile to Ravichandran Ashwin
On a length on middle and leg, Ashwin takes a stride back and looks to flick but gets hit on the pads. An appeal is made for LBW but it is turned down.

Trent Boult to Shreyas Iyer
Brilliant fielding from Rohit Sharma! Fullish ball outside off, Iyer drives it to covers and takes off for a single but has to go back because Sharma dives and makes a very good stop. Sharma throws it to Boult but Ashwin had made it back in.

Sliced away! Fuller in length and around off, Ravichandran Ashwin gives the charge and goes hard at it. Ends up slicing it behind backward point. Saurabh Tiwary runs across to his right from third man and boots it out at the last moment. The batters take two and Saurabh seems to have hurt himself.

OVERTHROWS! From the skipper, Rohit Sharma too. Not what Mumbai needed. A direct hit would have sent Ashwin back but instead, it has cost Mumbai a few runs. Around middle and leg, slower in pace and it has some extra bounce, Iyer is taken by surprise and chips this one towards covers where Rohit collects it on the bounce. He has a shy at the non-striker's end but misses. There is no one backing up and the batters are able to pick up a couple.

Around middle and off, on a length, Ashwin lofts this one over covers, where the mid off fielder runs to his left and stops the ball. One taken. 4 more needed from 6 balls.

Krunal Pandya to Ravichandran Ashwin
SIX! WOW! What a way to win the game for your side. Ashwin does not want to waste time taking singles, he just smacks one out of the park and wins the game. Fuller, tossed up, around middle and off, Ravichandran Ashwin gets low, mows a cracking slog-sweep and thwacks it flat and over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. DELHI WIN BY 4 WICKETS!
