Sriram: "....and who knows MI may get all out within 70 runs" --- Ummm, sounds interesting.

Neesham: "It was challenging with the bat. Everyone's got their own plans and way of going about things. But powerplay is important... Coulter-Nile is outstanding. It wasn't swinging tonight, but we saw how he has a plan B with his cutters."

Rajkumar Lingav: "Polly and Hardik should open and knock off this target in 10 overs."

7.48pm So Royals end on what is the second-lowest total in the full quota of 20 overs in IPL history. Coulter-Nile leads the way for Mumbai with 4 for 14, as Neesham and Bumrah shared five wickets too. Another pitch where the ball barely seemed to be coming on to the bat, and so that struggle by the Royals' batters.
