Mumbai 148-3 (16 ovs) vs KKR

Cummins is back into the attack.

Tiwary tears into the Australian pacer straightaway as he clears his front foot and hammers the first ball down the ground for a four.

The left-hander then swings the next ball over the long-on boundary for a six and dances around the crease before tapping the third ball to point for one.

Rohit walks across his stumps and picks Cummins over short fine leg for one and Tiwary then clips the next past short fine leg for two runs before his partner takes one off the last ball.

Not a good start for Cummins with the ball in the IPL as he concedes 30 runs in his first two overs.

Narine comes back and makes the breakthrough with the wicket of Tiwary with the first delivery of his new spell.

The left-hander tries to loft it down the ground but can't get hold of it and is caught at long-off after scoring 21 from 13 balls.

All-rounder Hardik Pandya comes out to bat at No 5.

Rohit swats the next ball to deep square leg for one before Narine bowls four dot balls in a row to Hardik, to end a superb over in which he took a wicket and conceded just a single.

Mumbai are 148-3 in 16 overs and will aim for a strong finish, to finish on 200 or more. Their hopes will largely rest of Rohit, who has stroked his way to 72 from 49 balls.
