Highlights, IPL 2018, MI vs RCB at Wankhede, Full Cricket Score: Mumbai beat Bangalore by 46 runs

Vaibhav Shah and Shantanu Srivastava review Mumbai Indians’ 46-run victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore from outside the Wankhede Stadium.

Rohit Sharma is Man of the Match

Rohit: It was not the ideal situation to bat at 0 for 2. I think Umesh bowled well. It was a good wicket to bat on. When I went in, wicket was a little soft. It is easier as long as you are there. 

I think this is a perfect game for us. We wanted collective effort. We can take a lot of confidence from this game and move ahead. We have played some good cricket. 

Batting at number 4 has been happening for the last few years. Me batting at 4 gives balance to the side and gives younger lads opportunity at the top. Opening the innings and batting at number 4 does not matter. 

Lewis is exciting to watch. If he bats like that, our job will be a lot easier.

OUT! Second wicket for Jasprit Bumrah. An ugly slog from Umesh and he holes out to cover. 

U Yadav c Rohit b Bumrah 1(2)

OUT! Bumrah strikes. Woakes looks to slice it over short third man and fails to go past Krunal, who is stationed at that position. Bumrah collects his 50th IPL wicket.

This match is only heading towards one result and now it is a question of NRR for RCB. 13 come in the over.

After 16 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 121/6 ( Virat Kohli (C) 57 , Chris Woakes 10)

Three singles and two boundaries in the 16th over. Eight short off the required run rate.

After 15 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 108/6 ( Virat Kohli (C) 51 , Chris Woakes 3)

Hardik Pandya comes back. Virat Kohli completes his 50 off the third ball with a single but doesn’t even celebrate. 106 needed off 30. The required run rate is 21.2.

MI spinners have been absolutely fabulous today. Markande and Krunal have bowled 8 overs today 54 runs and picking up 4 wickets. The pitch has clearly slowed down since the first innings with no rap dew coming into play.

At the fall of Sarfaraz’s wicket the reaction of Virat said it all. He simply turns around not wanting to see Sarfaraz’s face after the dismissal, but I am sure the feeling was mutual albeit for completely contrasting reasons.

After 14 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 104/6 ( Virat Kohli (C) 49 , Chris Woakes 1)

Just felt that Virat Kohli is going to make a move after the first-ball six but then Markande conceded only four runs off the next five balls. Wonder where the runs are going to come from with Kohli regularly losing wickets at the other end.

OUT! Markande strikes. Sarfaraz Khan dances down the wicket and swings blindly only to miss it. Tare collects the ball and stumps him. 

Sarfaraz Khan st Tare b Markande 5(6)

After 13 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 94/5 ( Virat Kohli (C) 40 , Sarfaraz Khan 5)

Bumrah returns. But RCB still haven’t upped the ante. Only seven off the over. Ishan Kishan left the field due to the injury which made Aditya Tare the first substitute keeper in IPL.

After 12 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 87/5 ( Virat Kohli (C) 38 , Sarfaraz Khan 0)

Krunal Pandya was underbowled in all the previous matches. Finishes his quota here and his figures are: 4-0-28-3. Simply brilliant.

Krunal Pandya in IPL:

v RCB – 9 wickets
v all other teams combined – 12 wickets
