KKR continue to slip; Mumbai Indians in control
September 23, 2020  23:11

KKR 78-4 (12 ovs) vs MI 195-5

Chahar dents KKR further with the wicket of captain Karthik, who is trapped leg before wicket. Karthik, who made 30 from 23 balls, went for the sweep but missed it and was struck plumb in front.

England captain Eoin Morgan is hit on the pads but the leg before appeal is turned down down, before the left-hander attempts the reverse sweep and is beaten.

Excellent bowling from Chahar as he gets Morgan poking at one outside the off-stump only to miss before he gets off the mark with a single from the final ball.

Just a single run from the over as the asking rate jumps over 13, with 124 needed from nine overs for victory.

Pollard continues as Morgan cuts it past point for a four despite a desperate lunge from Hardik at deep point. The next ball is pitched up as Morgan goes for the big hit down the ground but fails to connect.

Morgan hits Pollard down to long-on for a single as he still struggles with his timing.

Pollard then strikes with the wicket of Rana, who goes for the lofted shot over the covers but Pandya in the deep makes good ground and completes a superb running catch.

That is Pollard's first wicket in the IPL since the 2015 edition.

Rana is dismissed for 24 from 18 balls as KKR are reduced to 78-4 in 12 overs, losing two wickets for seven runs in two overs.

They need 118 from eight overs for victory at an asking rate of nearly 15.

Can Andre Russell script a magical turnaround with the bat?
