Mumbai 55-4 (8 ovs) vs RCB 167-7 | Scorecard


Mohammed Siraj comes into the attack. Duminy pulls the second ball for two runs and then takes one before Siraj tries the bouncer to Pollard but it goes high and is called a wide.

Pollard then taps the fifth ball on the leg side for one before Duminy gets a thick outside edge to point as Siraj starts off well.

Pollard looks to release the pressure as he lofts Umesh over mid-off for a four before he beats the right-hander with the short ball.

Two singles before Pollard is troubled again by the short ball before Mumbai get five from the last ball, courtesy of the overthrow which goes for a boundary.

11 runs from the over as Mumbai reach 40 for three in six overs.

Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal comes into the attack. The first ball turns and turns big as Pollard is beaten a long way before he gets the edge off the next ball but the tough chance is dropped by wicketkeeper de Kock.

Pollard then picks a single before Chahal gets another big turn but this time it goes way down the leg side for Duminy, beating wicketkeeper de Kock for five wides.

Another wide before Chahal bowls three dot balls in a row. He concedes seven runs from his first over, out of which just one has come off the bat.

Siraj strikes in the next over, with the wicket of Pollard, who fails yet again with the bat. He looks to steer it to thirdman but gets an edge and is caught behind for 13.

The wide count goes up as Siraj bowls it down the leg side to Duminy, followed by two singles, before the left-hander pulls the last ball square on the leg side for a four.
