- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.3 nicked and gone! Bhatia's underwhelming WPL season continues! Back of a length in the fifth stump channel and this just holds its line after pitching. Bhatia flays at it and all she manages is a feather through to Bryce. Pandey is all smiles; a tale of familiar disappointment for Bhatia! 35/16.2 straight to Shafali, and the pressure pays off! Fullish outside off and Matthews' eyes light up. She skips down the track, trying to go downtown but does not get the timing she wants. Shanks it towards Shafali, who watches the ball till the last moment and pouches it above her head. Mumbai Indians in danger of tailing off! 35/213.3 simple return catch, and that is a massive, massive moment in the game! Gives this air too and the ball drops devilishly on NSB. She thinks she can push it back past the bowler but because she is not to the pitch of the ball, she pops it straight back to Jonassen. A comfortable catch to her left, and NSB, for a change, walks back having not impacted the game a great deal! 83/410.4 enormous lbw appeal, and the finger goes up! Harmanpreet goes upstairs, but that might be more in hope! Seems like an arm-ball, pitching on a full length on off and angling in. Harmanpreet plays for the turn and plays outside the line to get pinned on the front pad, right in front of middle stump. Not sure why she has reviewed this. Nothing on Ultra Edge, and Ball Tracking returns with three reds, with the ball thundering into the top of leg stump. Harmanpreet has to go, and she takes a review along with her! 73/316.3 what a catch by Annabel Sutherland, and the Delhi Capitals flags are flying at the Chinnaswamy! Shortish on the stumps and this seems to just stick in the surface. Kerr shapes to pull but the lack of pace, plus the extra bounce, means she top-edges it. Sutherland tears in from long on, tracks it all the way and then sprawls forward to complete a magnificent catch. MI stunned after the time-out! 101/616.1 Sajana bites the dust! And Minnu Mani has her first wicket of the evening! Floated up full outside off and Sajana tries to fight the angle, shaping to go leg-side. Cuts across it too much and the shot goes nowhere. Lanning settles under it at extra cover and does the rest. DC keep chipping away! 100/517.5 off stump knocked back, and Jonassen has done the youngster all ends up here! Tossed up beautifully outside off. The ball goes above the eye-line, prompting a huge swish, only to then dip deliciously. Kamalini, of course, does not account for it, and swings over the trajectory of the ball, which then crashes into off stump. DC have MI on the mat here! 104/718.6 holes out to Rodrigues at deep mid wicket! Flighted up full on middle and leg. Gupta advances and swings at it with all her might. Much better connection than the last ball but not enough to clear the fence. Easy catch for Rodrigues, who caps off the completion of the catch with a bit of floss! 115/819.6 Kalita has been run out at the bowler's end, but Amanjot manages to get across to the striker's end! Slower ball hung up on a back of a length wide outside off. Kalita misses and Amanjot scampers across, which leaves her partner high and dry. Sutherland gathers the throw from Bryce and takes off the bails to catch her well short of her ground. Amanjot, it must be said, seemed to back up quite a bit and took off very early, which, obviously, was not spotted in time by Sutherland to effect a run-out of the non-striker while backing up.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.5 taken on the fence! Amanjot breaks through and brings Shafali's party to an end! Pushed into the slot on middle and leg. The length and the line is there for the pick-up shot over mid wicket but Shafali just cannot generate enough elevation. That brings Kerr into play and she shuffles across to her left from deep mid wicket to gobble up the chance. MI finally have a wicket but is it too late already? 85/1Extras6 (w 6)TOTAL124/1 (14.3 Overs, RR: 8.55)Fall of wickets: 1-85 (Shafali Verma, 9.5 ov)
