IPL 2018 Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Daredevils latest cricket score and updates: Delhi Daredevils win by 7 wickets off the final ball! Mumbai Indians lose another thriller! Roy gets bat on ball this time from the outside half of the bat. Although it wasn’t of the middle of the bat, the ball clears the infield and that is enough for Delhi. Preview: Holders Mumbai Indians (MI) and Delhi Daredevils (DD), both winless so far, will be eager to crack a win and register their first points when they clash in an Indian Premier League (IPL) tie at the Wankhede Stadium here on Saturday. Hosts Mumbai lost to Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Sunrisers Hyderabad by identical one-wicket margins in close encounters while Gautam Gambhir-led Delhi finished second best to Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals in their first two outings. Rohit has so far failed to lead from the front for Mumbai while the likes of West Indians Elvin Lewis, Kieron Pollard and Suryakumar Yadav have also not fired.

Sportzpics[/caption] Another worry for Mumbai, who have not batted well in the first two matches, is the injury to India all-rounder Hardik Pandya. In his absence, big brother Krunal Pandya could be pushed up the order as Hardik did not play in the game against Sunrisers. Suryakumar Yadav is the only batsman to be among runs and his role will be a key element for the team, especially if it loses early wickets. In both the games MI lacked big partnerships. Among the bowlers, leg-spinner Mayank Markande has initially taken the IPL by storm and has been brilliant in the two games. His seven wickets, including the four scalps that he captured in a low-scoring tie against Sunrisers, earned him the purple cap. Markande, however, has lacked adequate support from the other bowlers – pacers Mustafizur Rehman, Jasprit Bumrah, Pradeep Sangwan and Krunal. Mustafizur and Bumrah are some of the best death bowlers in the world, but they went for runs and would be keen to do better tomorrow. Coming to visitors Delhi, Gambhir and co have also fired blanks. The hopes from local boy Shreyas Iyer, apart from captain Gambhir, Rishabh Pant, Australian Glenn Maxwell, Englishman Jason Roy and Kiwi Colin Munro are much but the fireworks have been missing. The Delhi bowlers have also been below par and need to get their act together to register a win. The role of spinners, especially leggie Amit Mishra, will be crucial. Teams: MI: Rohit Sharma (captain), Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Mustafizur Rahman, Suryakumar Yadav, Krunal Pandya, Ishan Kishan, Rahul Chahar, Evin Lewis, Saurabh Tiwary, Ben Cutting, Pradeep Sangwan, Jean-Paul Duminy, Tajinder Singh, Sharad Lumba, Siddhesh Lad, Aditya Tare, Mayank Markande, Akila Dhananjaya, Anukul Roy, Mohsin Khan, MD Nidheesh, Mitchell McClenaghan. DD: Shreyas Iyer, Chris Morris, Rishabh Pant, Glenn Maxwell, Gautam Gambhir (captain), Jason Roy, Colin Munro, Mohammed Shami, Amit Mishra, Prithvi Shaw, Rahul Tewatia, Vijay Shankar, Harshal Patel, Avesh Khan, Shahbaz Nadeem, Daniel Christian, Jayant Yadav, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Trent Boult, Manjot Kalra, Abhishek Sharma, Sandeep Lamichhane, Naman Ojha, Sayan Ghosh, Liam Plunkett.

BALL 6: Roy gets bat on ball this time from the outside half of the bat. Although it wasn’t of the middle of the bat, the ball clears the infield and that is enough for Delhi. Jason Roy the Man of the Moment does it in the end. Nerve wrangling that saw Mumbai lose. Delhi get their campaign underway with a last-ball win against Mumbai Indians.
After 19 overs,Delhi Daredevils 184/3 ( Jason Roy 80 , Shreyas Iyer 27)
Bumrah outfoxes Roy with a slower ball with the batsman having no clue. Balloons it up in the air but everything has gone Roy’s way today, falls in no mans land. Five good deliveries giving just five runs. Targeted the wide yorker time and again and executed it to perfection. 11 runs required of the final over. High quality bowling by Bumrah. Delhi’s game to lose.
Can Mustafizur redeem himself after dropping those catches? Need six good balls!
After 18 overs,Delhi Daredevils 179/3 ( Jason Roy 76 , Shreyas Iyer 26)
Will need a miracle for Mumbai to win it from here on. Eight runs of the over. 16 needed off 12. Bumrah to bowl the 19th.
After 17 overs,Delhi Daredevils 171/3 ( Jason Roy 76 , Shreyas Iyer 19)
Eleven runs off the over. DD are favourites to cross the line from hereon. Fizz might be bowling the 18th over, will be interesting to see how he goes about his work after couple of drops. 11 runs off Bumrah’s over.
After 16 overs,Delhi Daredevils 160/3 ( Jason Roy 71 , Shreyas Iyer 13)
34 runs required off 4 overs now. DD are cantering towards the finish line. MI bowlers are facing the wrath from Roy, who is middle of terrific innings.

Danajaya’s IPL debut has been a forgettable outing. Leaked 47 runs without getting a single wicket. 11 runs of his final over. 47 runs required of last five overs.
After 14 overs,Delhi Daredevils 137/3 ( Jason Roy 61 , Shreyas Iyer 1)
Iyer walks out to the middle at the fall of third wicket. He is in without a helmet. Krunal bowls a fantastic over. He has kept Mumbai in this.
OUT! Much-needed breakthrough for the Mumbai Indians. Maxwell’s bat turns in his hands with turn going away from him, but the ball was always going away from Hardik Pandya at long off. The younger Pandya makes good ground, puts in the dive parallel to ground and takes a spectacular catch.
G Maxwell c Hardik Pandya b Krunal Pandya 13(6)
After 13 overs,Delhi Daredevils 134/2 ( Jason Roy 59 , Glenn Maxwell 13)
Mayank Markande has been taken to the cleaners today. Smashed around by Roy and Pant first and now Maxwell also running into him. Match slipping away from. 61 needed off 42 balls.
After 12 overs,Delhi Daredevils 119/2 ( Jason Roy 57 , Glenn Maxwell 0)
Krunal bowls a successful over giving away just six runs and picking up a vital wicket of Pant. Still MI will need couple of more wickets to come into the match.
OUT! Pant once again targets the straight boundary, but patrolling the long off fence is Pollard who moves couple paces to his left and dives to hold on to fiercely hit stroke. End of dynamic innings from Pant

After 11 overs,Delhi Daredevils 113/1 ( Jason Roy 56 , Rishabh Pant (W) 42)
Not even Bumrah is able to keep these two quiet as they continue to find the fence in the over. Roy is going all guns blazing!
Jasprit Bumrah introduced into the attack.
Rishabh Pant has been dismissed by Jasprit Bumrah thrice in just eight balls before today.
After 10 overs,Delhi Daredevils 104/1 ( Jason Roy 49 , Rishabh Pant (W) 40)
Fifty partnership for the second wicket comes in no time. The left and right hand combo are on the attack against the spinners. As they take 19 runs off the over to go past 100.
