Ravi Bishnoi to Suryakumar Yadav
OUT! TAKEN! A lot of Mumbai's hopes were on Suryakumar Yadav and he has holded out. The required rate was creeping up and Suryakumar Yadav had to go for a big shot. Short ball from Ravi Bishnoi on middle and leg, Suryakumar Yadav hangs back and swivel-pulls it to deep square leg. It's a long side of the boundary and SKY doesn't quite get the distance. Krishnappa Gowtham, the substitute fielder, settles under the ball and takes the catch easily.
