19:06   MI opt to bowl against SRH
Mumbai Indians win the toss and elect to bowl first against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Wankhede.

Electing to field first, MI skipper Hardik Pandya says, "The wicket looks fresh, seems like might have something with the new ball. We want to make sure we use it. It's all about playing for your pride, and playing for the badge we honour, and our fans who have supported us through thick and thin. One change: Gerald misses out and Anshul Kamboj makes his debut."

Meanwhile, SRH skipper Pat Cummins says, "We got Mayank Agarwal coming back into the side at No. 3. Dew is a factor. But we have been batting well in the first half so another opportunity tonight. We have four games left and probably need to win two to make it into the top four but can't think too far ahead."

18:25   SRH eager to exploit batting friendly Wankhede
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of match no. 55 of the ongoing IPL season. With the tournament entering its business end, Mumbai Indians host Sunrisers Hyderabad in a must-win clash at the Wankhede.

A confident SRH will look to produce a dominant show against a frail Mumbai Indians outfit and move up in the Indian Premier League points table when the teams clash tonight.

Placed fourth in the table with 12 points from 10 matches after six wins and four defeats, SRH will be desperate to produce an all-round show and make improvements especially in their bowling department.

The Pat Cummins-led side is in the midst of an intense battle between multiple teams who are bidding for spots in the final four, with Rajasthan Royals (16 points), Kolkata Knight Riders (14 points) and Lucknow Super Giants (12 points) placed above SRH.

Chennai Super Kings (5th with 10 points) and a resurgent Delhi Capitals (6th with 10 points) are breathing down SRH's neck, a scenario that must force the 2016 winners to shrug off any rust and get ready for an intense mid-table battle.

If a two-paced pitch at the Wankhede stadium for the previous clash against KKR was an aberration, the free-flowing SRH batters will look to make merry and pile up a huge score as they have done several times this year.

The pitches at the Wankhede generally are batting-friendly and short boundary lengths at the venue makes scores in excess of 200 a norm, though the MI-KKR contest, played out on a sluggish surface last Friday, challenged the batters to dig deep.

SRH will be high on confidence having pipped the table-toppers RR by just one run in their previous outing, their bowlers pulling off a thrilling win.

Stay tuned as we bring you all the action of another cracking IPL match. Toss at 7:00pm IST.
