Right then, the night belongs to Mumbai Indians. They delivered with the ball and then ensured they chase down the target with ease. Quinton de Kock played another good knock while Mumbai bowlers also put up impressive performance. 

That’s all we have for you tonight. Tomorrow is a double header – RR vs RCB followed by DC vs CSK. We will bring you all the updates from both the matches so do join us. Goodbye!

Quinton de Kock: “Those leg-side shots are just one of the shots I have in my armoury. I don’t plan to do that, it is just natural. It is just about keeping my balance and playing them as I see them. Last game I was disappointed I didn’t finish the game. To be honest I have played this game enough to know you can’t do anything about it if you drop one. You have to carry on and do the best for your team. I am a better keeper than that, and don’t drop catches on purpose so that is nothing to worry about.”

Rohit Sharma: “It is special, gives us confidence. In the second-half of the tournament, I think teams batting second will most of the matches. I believe a lot in match-ups. It has gives us success. I enjoy batting with Quinton. He is straightforward. Most of the times I take the back seat. I have a role to play in the squad. I need to let Quinny bat free and not worry about what the team needs from him.”

“We weren’t in the race at all really, being four or five down. Managed to get a score on the board but when Mumbai are like that, they are hard to stop. Full credit to Mumbai, they played well. We have lessons to learn.”

After 16 overs,Mumbai Indians 141/2 ( Quinton de Kock (W) 76 , Hardik Pandya 15)

Cummins is back and the first ball is a slower one down the leg. Just one for de Kock. Hardik now takes charge and takes Cummins to cleaners. Some timing on those boundary hits. Eight needed now. Next could be the last over.

Sensational! This time, Hardik flicks it but does it so well that the ball crosses the square boundary!

After 15 overs,Mumbai Indians 126/2 ( Quinton de Kock (W) 75 , Hardik Pandya 1)

Shivam Mavi to de Kock. No timing off the fist ball but de Kock hits it in the gap on the leg-side and runs two. Good slower yorker in the next ball, de Kock though is watchful and blocks it. 13 off the over, including a four and a six. Just 23 needed now from last five overs.

After 14 overs,Mumbai Indians 113/2 ( Quinton de Kock (W) 62 , Hardik Pandya 1)

Another impressive performance with the ball from Varun Chakravarthy today. Can’t say the same for other KKR bowlers. He finishes his quota of four overs, conceding only 23 runs and a wicket to his name. Hardik Pandya joins de Kock in the middle.

After 13 overs,Mumbai Indians 110/1 ( Quinton de Kock (W) 60 , Suryakumar Yadav 10)

Mavi starts off with a ball straight to the legs. de Kock flicks it for a single. The next one is a 140 plus ball, hitting the right length to beat Suryakumar. The batsman gets a leading edge in the next ball but it’s safe and one run for Suryakumar. de Kock tries to scoop a short length delivery but the bounce is too much for him. A single and a four to end the over.

Unlucky for Shivam. Suryakumar gets an edge but it’s too far for keeper DK.

Varun Chakravarthy bowls his third of the night. Three doubles and three singles from this over. Hope Mumbai Indians don’t have any plans of dragging this match to the final over, like what we saw last night. They need 46 off 48 balls.

After 11 overs,Mumbai Indians 94/1 ( Quinton de Kock (W) 54 , Suryakumar Yadav 0)

Shivam Mavi into the attack. After conceding the four, Mavi corrects his length, goes fuller and gets the wicket. That’s the length to bowl on this wicket. KKR bowlers have been on the shorter side this innings and they went for runs. Suryakuamr Yadav is the new man batsman. Just four from the over.

Varun continues, beats Rohit in the first ball. The skipper then goes for sweep but again misses it. The third ball, a half tracker, Rohit picks it and clears the boundary for a six. Too much power on that one. A single and a dot to finish the over.

Easy pickings for Rohit Sharma. Slow and short of length from varun, Rohit hits the ball over deep square-leg.

Russell with the ball. Starts off with a wide yorker to de Kock. Similar second ball again for no runs. de Kock decides that’s it, no more dot balls and he scores a four and a six. Two singles to end the over. Mumbai need 66 in 66 balls with 10 wickets in hand.

Varun Chakravarthy into the attack. Rohit Sharma punches the second ball to extra cover to collect two runs. To de Kock, he bowls outside off for one more run. DK, behind the stumps, tells Varun in Tamil to stick to the same length. Four off the over and we have timeout.

After 7 overs,Mumbai Indians 67/0 ( Rohit Sharma (C) 20 , Quinton de Kock (W) 42)

When these two openers get going, it becomes really tough for bowlers. Quinton de Kock is having fun out there. He’s picking the length early and dealing in boundaries. He’s already in 40s. 16 off Prasidh’s over.

Andre Russell with the ball. He’s bowling with an orange shoe on one foot and a blue one on the other one. The fifth ball is short and De Kock goes for the pull, one bounce to the fine-leg fielder. A yorker to end the over. He keeps the run-flow in check. End of the powerplay.

Another good over for Mumbai Indians. Nine off Green’s second over and the required runs are 101 from 90 balls. Should be a cake walk from here. KKR bowlers need to pull off something special here.

While the likes of Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Jofra Archer have wickets to show, that’s not the case for Pat Cummins. He has picked only two so far this season. He is scoring the runs plus dot balls percentage is high but no wickets for Cummins. Nine off the over.

IPL 2020 LIVE SCORE, Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders latest updates: Done and dusted! Mumbai chase down 149 with eight wickets in hand and 19 balls to spare. KKR have been outplayed by the best team of this season. This is Mumbai’s 21st win over Kolkata in IPL.

 Preview:  Mumbai Indians take on Kolkata Knight Riders in the 32nd match of the Indian Premier League in Abu Dhabi.

Mumbai Indians love playing against KKR. Before the start of the season, they had their best win percentage (for teams against whom they have played 10 or more matches) against Kolkata – 76 percent, with 19 wins from 25 matches. They continued that dominance with a comprehensive 49-run win over them earlier in this edition at Abu Dhabi and would be looking to get a double on them this season again at the same venue. And with the way they are playing, there is every chance they can achieve that double. They are on a winning spree and will go into the match on the back of four consecutive wins. In the last match, they beat the formidable DC and it’s the all-round contribution that was again the key. Quinton de Kock has found form, Suryakumar Yadav has looked impressive with two fifties in a row. Ishan Kishan has also timed the ball well. Rohit has been a bit inconsistent but the last time he played against KKR, he made 80 off 54 balls and was named Man of the Match. The middle and lower order can tear attacks apart. So KKR have a lot to ponder about. They need their bowlers to step up after the thumping loss against RCB. On a slowish Sharjah surface, they conceded an above-par 194 against RCB in their last match and then crumbled to 112/9 in the chase. Their batsmen need to fire after the abject performance. With Tom Banton coming in, Rahul Tripathi was again pushed down the order against RCB but they would look to bring him back to open the innings considering the fact that he had hit 81 against CSK when promoted up the order. Nitish Rana, Eoin Morgan, Andre Russell all need to raise their game. Maybe KKR should look to push Russell up the order in order to get the best out of him. With the pitches getting slower, KKR might look to bring back Kuldeep Yadav again. With the form and confidence that MI are in and considering their record over KKR, they start off as favourites. Mumbai Indians full squad:  Rohit Sharma ,  Sherfane Rutherford ,  Suryakumar Yadav ,  Anmolpreet Singh ,  Chris Lynn ,  Saurabh Tiwary ,  Dhawal Kulkarni ,  Jasprit Bumrah ,  Mitchell McClenaghan ,  Rahul Chahar ,  Trent Boult ,  Mohsin Khan ,  Prince Balwant Rai Singh ,  Digvijay Deshmukh ,  Hardik Pandya ,  Jayant Yadav ,  Kieron Pollard ,  Krunal Pandya ,  Anukul Roy ,  Nathan Coulter-Nile ,  Ishan Kishan ,  Quinton de Kock ,  Aditya Tare ,  James Pattinson Kolkata Knight Riders full squad:  Andre Russell ,  Dinesh Karthik ,  Kamlesh Nagarkoti ,  Kuldeep Yadav ,  Ali Khan ,  Lockie Ferguson ,  Nitish Rana ,  Prasidh Krishna ,  Rinku Singh ,  Sandeep Warrier ,  Shivam Mavi ,  Shubman Gill ,  Siddhesh Lad ,  Sunil Narine ,  Pat Cummins ,  Eoin Morgan ,  Varun Chakravarthy ,  Tom Banton ,  Rahul Tripathi ,  Chris Green ,  M Siddharth ,  Nikhil Naik Click here to read factboxes of all IPL teams Click here to check out the full IPL 2020 Schedule Click here to read all IPL team previews Click here to read IPL FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
