Live Scorecard:

Harbhajan Singh (9) is run out in a dramatic manner in the 18th over and that brings Lasith Malinga to the crease. 

However, 10 runs come off that Cooper's over, including a boundary by Malinga courtesy some shoddy fielding. 

Mumbai need 15 runs off the last two overs. And it is Rampaul to bowl the penultimate over. He concedes just four runs to finish with impressive figures of three for 16. 

Sherwin Ganga to bowl the final over and Mumbai require 11 runs to win. Malinga smashes his second ball for a maximum. Four from four. But Malinga (15) is run out off the fourth ball.

Rayudu (36) himself is run out in the fifth ball.

However, Chahl takes the required couple of the final ball as Mumbai scrape home in the last ball to win by a wicket.

Just when things seemed to get back on track for Mumbai, Narine gets Trinidad back into the match having Sathish (14) caught by Simmons at midwicket.

Rayudu and Sathish are forging a good little partnership here. The 12th over, bowled by Cooper (his third) has been the best of the Mumbai Indians' innings thus far with nine runs coming off it, both the batsmen helping them to boundaries. 

A couple by Rayudu off Ganga helps the home team surpass the 50-run mark. 

Mumbai 55 for five after 14 overs. 
22:14  
Live Scorecard:

Rampaul gets his third wicket in his third over when he rattles Andrew Symonds (0)stumps.

In come Kieron Pollard and he just about survives the hattrick ball.  

Ambati Rayudu picks up a boundary in the final over of powerplay.

Pollard and Rayudu have managed to stabilise the Mumbai innings despite their lack of communication. But just as things seem to settle down Sunil Narine cleans up Pollard (9).

Mumbai reduced to 33 for five after nine overs.

A couple from new batsman Darren Ganga helps Trinidad reach the 50-run mark inside the first six overs. Harbhajan's first over costs him 11 runs. 

James Franklin is handed the ball in the seventh over, and after bowling the couple of wides, the Kiwi is rewarded with a wicket when a spectacular catch by Sathish accounts for Trinidad captain Ganga (5).

Trinidad and Tobago won the toss and elected to bat first against Mumbai Indians in the Champions League T20 match at Bangalore on Monday. 

"It is a good batting wicket and we will try to score big and put Mumbai under pressure," reasoned Trinidad captain Darren Ganga. 

His opposite number, Harbhajan Singh, wasn't too perturbed with the toss loss. 

"The wicket is different from the one in Chennai. We will look to avoid any complacency," he said.
