Vaibhav Arora to Suryakumar Yadav
FOUR! This time he goes over the circle and gets the reward! Not an ideal length to bowl with the third man inside the circle. Short, and on off, Suryakumar Yadav climbs on the ball by hopping from the crease and guides it over the short third for a boundary on a single bounce.

Vaibhav Arora to Suryakumar Yadav
Uh, oh! A front foot No Ball from Arora and Suryakumar Yadav would want to make the most out of it. Full toss angling into the stumps. Suryakumar Yadav pushes it to cover. Free Hit to follow.

Vaibhav Arora to Suryakumar Yadav
SIX! He has picked the bones out of it! Misses the yorker and offers a juicy full toss on the middle, Suryakumar Yadav clears his front leg and hoists it over long off for a maximum. 100 up for Mumbai and now they are up and running.

Vaibhav Arora to Suryakumar Yadav
FOUR! SHOT! SKY GETS HIS 24th FIFTY IN THE INDIAN T20 LEAGUE! Short in length, angling into the batter, Suryakumar Yadav stays inside the crease and pulls it well along the ground through square leg for a boundary.

Vaibhav Arora to Suryakumar Yadav
FOUR! The fielders are getting a bit irrelevant at the moment! Not that short but short enough on off for Suryakumar Yadav to employ the pull shot once again. He gets it correct once more and through square leg for another cracking four.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Tim David
FOUR! A little bit of luck and David will take it with both hands! Quicker and outside off on a length, Tim David gets it off the thickish outside edge that just goes past the vacant first slip region for a boundary.

Andre Russell to Suryakumar Yadav
Top delivery! Full and straight, right in the blockhole, Suryakumar Yadav looks to shuffle across but has to adjust and blocks it out in front of covers.

Andre Russell to Suryakumar Yadav
OUT! CAUGHT! What a moment in the game, one that could seal the game for Kolkata, and Suryakumar Yadav is heartbroken. Andre Russell steams in and looks to bowl another yorker straight at the stumps but ends up serving a juicy full toss. SKY isn't quite ready for it and just tries to whip it away but gets it high on the bat and the ball goes a long way up in the air towards fine leg. The keeper, Phil Salt runs back and the man in the deep also comes charging in but does hear the keeper calling for it and Salt hangs on to the swirling ball. Yadav walks back after a fine knock and Russell gets the big fish.

Andre Russell to Gerald Coetzee
Slower one, fuller in length and angled into the legs, Gerald Coetzee clips it away towards the vacant mid-wicket region and turns the strike over.

Andre Russell to Tim David
Oh, overthrows! Bowled into the pitch and outside off stump, Tim David shuffles across the off stump and gets caught on the crease, getting a leading edge in front of cover. They scamper through for one as Shreyas Iyer misses the direct hit at the bowler's end and there's no one backing up which allows David to get an extra run.

The call is for two straight away but they won't get it! Comes from around the stumps and angles it in on a good length, trying to nip it away from off stump. Tim David edges it away with soft hands behind point and gets a single.

Mitchell Starc to Gerald Coetzee
Tim David says no to the second run! Full and outside off, driven brilliantly by Gerald Coetzee wide of long off but Rinku Singh speeds to his left and cuts off the boundary, just the single then.

Mitchell Starc to Tim David
A golden dot ball! Banged in a bit short and angled onto middle, doesn't bounce as much and Tim David is hurried while looking to pull and gets hit on the body.

Mitchell Starc to Tim David
Back of a length and around off, Tim David stays deep in the crease and shuffles across before pulling it in front of mid-wicket for just one more. No timing on that one.

Mitchell Starc to Gerald Coetzee
Another dot ball and the pressure keeps on rising for Mumbai. Full and quick outside off, Gerald Coetzee connects the cover drive once again but hits it straight to the fielder.

Mitchell Starc to Gerald Coetzee
Wow, just 3 off that over and now Mumbai need 43 runs off 18 balls. Starc takes pace off and bowls it on a shortish length outside off, getting it to grip a bit as well. Gerald Coetzee hops back to guide it away but is beaten past the outside edge.

Andre Russell to Tim David
More than half an appeal for LBW by the bowler but he gets no support from his teammates. Slightly back of a length again on off and middle, sticking in the deck, Tim David looks to heave it leg side but misses and gets hit very high on the pads.

Andre Russell to Tim David
TWO LEG BYES! Andre Russell bowls a heavy ball on a hard length and angles it in from middle stump. Tim David goes across to the off side to flick it away but misses and gets hit on the pads. The ball rolls away towards fine leg as the keeper chases it down and there's an appeal for LBW which is turned down. Kolkata take the review and there's clearly no bat involved but Ball Tracking shows that the ball would have gone over leg stump.

Andre Russell to Tim David
Oh, another overthrow and Tim David will be back on strike. Banged in short over the stumps, David pulls it on the bounce to deep mid-wicket and the throw comes in at the keeper's end. Phil Salt gets a bad bounce and the ball goes between his legs as the batters get an extra run.

Mitchell Starc to Tim David
SIX! Just the start Mumbai wanted to the over! Fuller in length, angling it into the stumps, Tim David does well to shuffle across and whips it away over deep backward square leg for a maximum.

Mitchell Starc to Tim David
OUT! CAUGHT! Wow, would you believe it? Not for the first time in the last two games that a full toss has brought a crucial wicket. Mitchell Starc steams in and misses his mark completely with the wide yorker and he serves a juicy full toss instead. Tim David hits it hard and flat and the ball pings off his bat but goes just to the right of long off where Shreyas Iyer takes a very sharp catch and the Mumbai dugout cannot believe it. Is that game over?

Mitchell Starc to Piyush Chawla
OUT! CAUGHT! Two in two for Mitchell Starc and Kolkata on the cusp of a famous win here. Comes from around the stumps to the left-hander and just misses the yorker by a couple of inches. It is a low full toss, quite hard to get underneath and Piyush Chawla ends up chipping the ball straight to cover where Sunil Narine takes a comfortable catch.

Mitchell Starc to Jasprit Bumrah
Mitchell Starc gets the perfect wide yorker in this time. Bowled at 140 clicks and right on the popping crease outside off, Jasprit Bumrah jams it down back past the stumps and scampers across for a single.

Mitchell Starc to Gerald Coetzee
OUT! BOWLED'EM! That's it, Mitchell Starc has cleaned things up here for Kolkata and boy, he is pumped up. With adrenaline pumping through his veins, Starc steams in and darts in the yorker right on the middle stump at well over 140 clicks. Gerald Coetzee backs away to open up the off side but there's just too much heat on the ball and it sneaks through to crash into the middle stump. Starc finishes with a four-fer and Kolkata win by 24 runs!
