Mumbai 71-1 (8 ovs) vs KKR 178-7 | Scorecard

Sunil Narine comes into the attack in place of Boult, who bowled two overs for 19 runs. He starts with a short ball which Parthiv pulls it through midwicket for a four. He steers the next ball fine on the off-side for a couple before he picks a quick single on the off-side with Buttler making his crease despite a direct hit.

Spin from both ends as chinaman spinner Kuldeep Yadav comes on from the other end. He makes a tidy start as he concedes just five runs in his first over as Mumbai reach 49 for no loss in six overs.

Buttler keen not to let the spinners settle down as he launches Narine over long-on for a six in the seventh over.

In the next over, Parthiv slog sweeps Kuldeep for a six over midwicket before the spinner gets revenge off the very next delivery. Parthiv goes for the sweep but fails to make connection and is dismissed leg before wicket for 30.

Nitish Rana walks in ahead of Rohit Sharma and he gets off the mark with a four as Kuldeep slips it down the leg side.
