MI vs KKR Highlights and Match Recap, IPL 2019, Full cricket score: Mumbai finish on top of table with nine-wicket win

Hardik Pandya (3-0-20-2) is the Man of the Match! 

HP: Getting a Man of the Match with your bowling performance. I’m quite happy. As a batsman, when you hit the ball, nothing is better than that. But when you get something that people don’t expect much from, that makes me happy. (On his big-hitting ability) I have no clue. Krunal was telling me Im generating power from my hip and core. Eventually became a habit, and now I’m clearing them. (On playoffs) I was focusing on the Chennai game because it will be a cracker of a game. On the day, if the team requires me of the situation, I can bowl four overs, 10 overs. Whatever the team needs.

SRH have now qualified for playoffs with 12 points — the first time a team has qualified with 12 points to IPL playoffs. 

RCB is at the last place and finished the season with 11 points — the first time a team finished at the last position with 11 points

A relatively expensive over fr Gurney, with 13 runs coming off it. While Surya collects two boundaries to approach 40, Rohit collects a single to bring up his third fifty of the season. Mumbai nearly home now, needing 13 to win off 30 balls.

It has been a bad day for Russell!

Even the mighty Andre Russell can have a day like this. A first ball duck, 2 overs for 28 and an emotional display on the field.

Nine runs and a wicket off the over.
