Abhinav Manohar: 143 is low on this wicket, it's not as flat as it looks on TV. It's holding on a bit with the new ball, got tougher as the ball got older. Was holding for the spinners too. From the past three games, I've been expecting to come in if there's a collapse. First three wickets fell quickly. Klaasen told me to play it like an ODI till the 15th and catch up from there. He makes batting look easy, wasn't so tonight.
9:11pm: This is the pitch on which 286 was scored and 160-odd was chased down in ten overs last season. Abhishek got 141 vs PBKS, but this game was nothing like it. SRH were 13 for 4 before the blink of an eye. Travis was out to driving, Kishan wasn't out but walked, Abhishek spooned one to point. Reddy chipped one to mid-on. Mostly harmless shots knocking out the specialists. Abhinav had to be brought in as Impact Player, he joined Klaasen and added 99 off 63 balls. It's added some sense of respectability to their total, although it seems low. For MI, Chahar was great early on. Boult did well across phases. Santner kept Abhinav quiet. Off day for Bumrah though. Chase coming up, Sudarshanan will be here soon.

Meanwhile, teenager Dev Meena is Indian athletics' new big hope, who recently smashed the pole vault national record. However, his constant struggles, from logistical issues to trying to live up to the federation's demands, have taken centre stage.

Prabhav: "Not quite bumrah's day today, good to see others step up."
Bumrah to close out
