Mumbai 51-2 (6 ovs) vs CSK

CSK introduce spin as leg-spinner Piyush Chawla comes into the attack. De Kock tries to reverse the first ball but fails to make connection before he hits the next to mid-off for a single.

Chawla then lifts CSK as he makes the breakthrough with the wicket of Rohit.

The MI captain tries to loft it down the ground but fails to get hold of it and is caught by Curran at mid-off after scoring 12.

New batsman Suryakumar Yadav gets off the mark with a single on the off-side and de Kock keeps strike with one from the last ball.

Curran comes back for his second spell, and he strikes first ball with the key wicket of de Kock.

He looks to swing it over the leg side but ends up miscuing the slower ball to Ngidi at midwicket, to perish after scoring 33 from 20 balls.

Left-hander Saurabh Tiwary is the new batsman, at No 4.

Tiwary blocks the first ball before he clips the next ball through midwicket for two runs to get off the mark, while taking Mumbai past the 50-run mark, in the sixth over.

A single to the left-hander before Suryakumar defends the last ball as Mumbai reach 51 for two, in six overs.

Superb stuff from Curran, conceding just three runs in the Powerplay, while picking up the wicket of de Kock.
