Join Saurabh for the chase in ten to see where this one goes. Can Shaw and company get going early?

"I still feel, it's a CSK match today. While reading the name Thakur on commentary column", recalls an emotional Azweer.

Rana: "60 runs from 10 overs of Kuldeep, Khaleel "

Kuldeep Yadav after taking 3 for 18: "Very happy, since most of my balls were on a good length. I have been talking to Ricky [Ponting] regarding the length of the ball in T20s. I did the same with Rohit bhai with the India side. I didn't change my pace, it just depended on the rhythm. All three wickets were important. If Pollard would have stayed, he could have scored more. The wicket was good, and it didn't help me. The length has to be good to not allow the batters the time to hit. I varied my length and my pace, which was important."

5.15pm So it is the big-bucks boy who delivers for Mumbai - again! Kishan slams an unbeaten 81 off 48 balls, and carries his side to 177, a very good total in the end. Rohit and Tilak contributed too, but credit to Kuldeep for keeping Mumbai quiet with regular strikes. But then, don't forget that catch from Seifert. Who knows what might have been had Pollard hung around?

Ahmed to David, OUT, slices to deep backward point! Khaleel comes back well in the second half of the over. This was like the last ball - full and close to the hitting range, but wide of off. David went to loft that over the off side, but ended up opening the bat face and sending that right into the hands of the fielder there

After taking that catch, he now leaps while running to his right, and pats the ball back from his left hand after it bounced high on pitching inside the rope.

Thakur to Ishan Kishan, 1 leg bye, yorker length delivery, and Thakur goes up in a leg before appeal. Pant doesn't go for a review. That was again dipping, and was a very accurate yorker, but the impact was just outside off, as Kishan swung to the on side and missed. They sneaked a leg bye in time though

Thakur to Ishan Kishan, no run, that was a might swing. Now this reminds me of Pant. That was a dipping full toss wide of off, as he went swinging and lost his balance to fall on his back. The ball raced off his top edge to short third man. Good stop diving to his right by Shaw

Thakur back. Over the stumps.

Harti: "I was really afraid that the huge price tag might add pressure to Kishan. But he bursts that fear with that authoritative six. "
