  • 15.1Trent Boult to Ruturaj Gaikwad. 1 run, Low full toss, wide of off, Ruturaj Gaikwad pushes this to wide mid off and takes one.

  • STRATEGIC BREAK! Easy going for the Super Kings. They need 31 runs from 30 balls. It has been a top knock from Gaikwad so far as he has stuck like glue at the crease and is happy in dealing with singles, with an odd boundary here and there. On the other hand, Kartik Sharma has done well for his 31, which is his best score so far in the IPL and would like to get the job done by being there. Mumbai are staring at another landslide defeat as they simply haven't been able to pick regular wickets. For the positives, Bumrah has been more economical than in the previous game, and Raghu Sharma bowled a tidy spell on debut. However, from ball one it was clear that MI's only route to victory ran through all ten CSK wickets, and that never looks like happening.

The umpire calls it a fair delivery and the CSK skipper sends this upstairs. The visuals show that the ball is passing down the leg side and the on-field decision of wide not given turns to a wide. 

  • Bumrah loses his run up. Walks back to reload.

  • 14.4Jasprit Bumrah to Ruturaj Gaikwad. no run, Slower one, short of a length, around off, Ruturaj Gaikwad cuts this to the right of Will Jacks at point. Jacks puts in a dive to his right, fields this, and keeps it down to a dot. 

  • 14.3Jasprit Bumrah to Ruturaj Gaikwad. no run, A really sharp bumper by Bumrah around middle and off, Ruturaj Gaikwad sits under it.

  • Ghazanfar was left bemused by that shot. Almost run-a-ball needed now for the Super Kings. They require 38 from 36 balls. Jasprit Bumrah (2-0-13-1) is back on. This is well and truly the last throw on the dice from MI. Can he engineer breakthrough(s) for MI here? Meanwhile, the physio is out to check Gaikwad. Not quite sure about the issue. Good to continue now.

  • 13.6Am Ghazanfar to Ruturaj Gaikwad. FOUR, FOUR! A high-quality stroke from the CSK skipper adds four more to the total. Floated around off, Ruturaj Gaikwad shuffles away from the stumps and hammers this past the left of extra cover for a boundary.

  • It's been one-way traffic so far, in favor of CSK and these two are making it look like a stroll in the park. AM Ghazanfar is back on. 2-0-18-1 so far. He replaces Hardik Pandya. But where is MI's best, Bumrah?

  • STRATEGIC BREAK! It has been a good phase of cricket from both sides, but Chennai edge over Mumbai purely based on how rapidly they have scored till this point. With Sanju Samson getting dismissed early, Urvil Patel took charge of proceedings and scored at a brisk pace before chopping one back onto his stumps. Skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad has looked good so far and he looks set to play the anchor for the most part of this chase. Hardik Pandya has not introduced himself into the attack yet and he might be tempted to sneak one right after the break and change ends for AM Ghazanfar, as Raghu Sharma has got a fair bit of purchase from the end he has been bowling.

  • 5.4Am Ghazanfar to Urvil Patel. out, OUT! CHOPPED ON! Ghazanfar delivers the good yet again for Hardik Pandya and Mumbai. Floated wide outside off, Urvil Patel collapses his back knee and looks to play the slog sweep across the line, but has to overstretch for it and loses his shape completely. Hence, he gets it off the inside edge and the ball goes on and rattles the timber. Urvil Patel departs after a breezy knock and Chennai are 62 for 2 now. 

  • 5.3Am Ghazanfar to Ruturaj Gaikwad. 1 run, Pushed through on leg, Ruturaj Gaikwad pushes this down to long on for one.

  • 4.1Krish Bhagat to Urvil Patel. SIX, SIX! Probably the biggest of the game so far. Back of a length, around the hips of Urvil. The batter steps inside the line and dispatches this with a flick over the fence towards the fine leg region. Into the second tier.
