Akash Madhwal to Ashutosh Sharma
SIX! BANG! Clean as a whistle by Ashutosh Sharma and that is some way to bring up your maiden Indian T20 League. Oh...no! The siren goes off and Madhwal has overstepped here. Free Hit to follow now and this is more misery for Mumbai. In the slot by Madhwal, on off and middle, Ashutosh Sharma gets underneath it and smacks it flat and it goes over mid off for a maximum.

Akash Madhwal to Harpreet Brar
SIX! BANG! Harpreet Brar gets into the six-hitting act now and this is a monstrous hit! It goes into the top tier and the game has turned on its head with this 24-run over from Madhwal. Madhwal misses his mark yet again and serves it right in the slot, on middle, Harpreet Brar clears his front leg and lets his long levers do the rest. Tonks it back over the bowler's head and it goes many a mile. Punjab on top now out of nowhere, needing 28 runs off the last four overs. But remember, Bumrah has one over up in his sleeve and six balls are enough for him to turn the tide back in Mumbai's favour.

Ouch, Harpreet Brar cops a blow on the glove! Bumrah bends his back and digs it in short, at the helmet of the batter from around the wicket.

Gerald Coetzee to Ashutosh Sharma
OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE MAN IN THE DEEP! The game takes another twist! Gerald Coetzee lets out a roar and he is pumped to the hilt! Ashutosh Sharma holes out and cannot quite see his side home. The crowd get up on their feet to applaud what has been an extraordinary knock. Coetzee comes from over the wicket and goes into the deck, on off, Ashutosh Sharma gets this one at a good height and hits the pull flat towards deep mid-wicket. Fails to get the elevation to clear the man in the deep and picks out Mohammad Nabi who makes no mistake.

Three dots to close out the over! Brilliant stuff from Coetzee, the big wicket of Ashutosh Sharma and just the 2 runs off it. Gerald Coetzee bangs it into the wicket but this time, he takes pace, over middle and leg, Harshal Patel backs away to slap it up and over on the off side. He gets undone by the lack of pace and connects with thin air. Coetzee is bowled out and it leaves Punjab needing 23 runs from 12 balls.

Hardik Pandya to Harpreet Brar
Pandya is lucky to get away with it! Drifts on the pads, fuller in length, Harpreet Brar gets inside the line of the ball to help it away fine on the leg side. He misses and since he had shuffled, the umpire does not signal a wide. Brar takes the review but the third umpire confirms that the ball would have struck Brar on the pads had he stayed in his normal standing position.

Hardik Pandya to Harpreet Brar
Lands it on a length, on the off-stump line, Harpreet Brar stays leg side of the ball and opens himself up to go up and over on the off side. Slices it over point and gets a couple of runs as Tilak Varma and Rohit Sharma give it a chase and cut it off.

Hardik Pandya to Harpreet Brar
OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! The Mumbai skipper with a crucial strike for his side and what a time to get the first wicket of the night. Body blow to Punjab as Brar departs. On a good length, on middle and leg, Harpreet Brar gets inside the line and shapes up to swipe it away behind square on the leg side. Gets this one off the bottom part of the bat and it goes only as far as deep backward square leg where Mohammad Nabi takes it near his chest.

Hardik Pandya to Kagiso Rabada
SIX! WOW! Kagiso Rabada picks the bones out of that with the first delivery he faces! Hardik Pandya goes short and it is slower one as well, over middle, Kagiso Rabada sits deep in his crease and waits for the ball to arrive. Nails the pull over deep square leg for a biggie. The crowd go wild with this hit from Rabada.

Hardik Pandya to Kagiso Rabada
Slower and fuller, on middle, Kagiso Rabada clears his front leg and knocks it down to long on for a single. Folks, we are going to the final over with Punjab requiring 12 runs. With 9 wickets down, you would back the bowling side but the way Rabada cleared the fence with his first ball, Punjab are in with more than a shout. Another game involving Punjab that is going the distance.

Akash Madhwal to Kagiso Rabada
OUT! RUN OUT! WHAT A WAY FOR THE GAME TO END! MUMBAI WIN BY 9 RUNS! Madhwal keeps it full and near the tramline on off, Kagiso Rabada walks across his stumps and reaches out to cream it through covers. Hits it along the ground to the right of deep cover. The first run is completed comfortably but Rabada slips a bit while returning for the second run, which made the difference there. Mohammad Nabi swoops in towards the ball quickly and releases an accurate and flat throw, near the stumps at the batting end. Ishan Kishan gets to the stumps quickly and takes the bails off. The third umpire is called into action and the replays confirm that Rabada is short of his crease despite the stretch. Mumbai players break into celebrations after seeing the replays on the big screen. Despair on the faces of Sam Curran and his men as they come close yet again, only to fall short.
