KKR 89-4 (12 ovs) vs Mumbai | Scorecard

Harbhajan Singh comes into the attack in place of Krunal, who bowled a good first spell of two for 10 in two overs. The veteran off-spinner makes a tidy start, giving away just five runs in his first over as Manish Pandey and Yusuf Pathan look to build a partnership and lend some stability to the innings in the middle.

Change of ends for Krunal as he comes on from the Media Box End. He starts with a short ball which Pandey cuts past point for two runs followed by a single to long-off. The KKR duo pick five singles from the next five balls as the visitors reach 79 for three in 10 overs.

The two Mumbai spinners bowling well in tandem as they dry up the boundaries and restrict the scoring rate. Harbhajan bowls another tight over, giving away just three runs with KKR losing momentum rapidly.

Krunal gets Pandey to edge one but Parthiv can't hold on it before he edges again off the next ball which flies past the wicketkeeper for a four.

Yusuf Pathan takes on Krunal as he targets the straight boundary but ends up hitting it straight into the hands of Hardik at long-off, the second time both the brothers have been involved in a dismissal in this match.

KKR continue to struggle as they are reduced to 89 for four in 12 overs with Pandey batting on 20 from 22 balls.
