MI 223/6 (20)
Kings XI Punjab won by 7 runs
PLAYER OF THE MATCH
Wriddhiman Saha

Some gambles pay off, some don't, while some leave you stunned so much so that you discard them as an illusion. For instance, the experiment to open the bowling with Hardik Pandya failed for Mumbai. On the other hand, Saha's promotion worked wonders for Punjab. Whew! T20 is quite an organized chaos. With this win, Kings XI keep their play-off hopes alive and Mumbai have been brought back to earth with a couple of losses. Anyway, that's for that. It was a pleasure calling you this game. Join us back tomorrow for all the spills and thrills. Until next time, it's a goodbye from all of us here. Cya!

Saha: Our job was to go hard in the first six overs and the plan was to rotate strike if we did not get big shots. We had the momentum so Maxwell too asked me to go for shots. Once we got 100 in 8 overs, we always wanted to cross 200. We thought 220 was a par score. I am ready to bat at any slot. The ultimate goal is to win for the team. Pollard was a touch tired so yorkers were good options. Mohit tried his knuckle balls but when it did not work, he switched back to yorkers. When boundaries are being hit, I anyway do not get to keep balls. The only goal was to gather whatever came my way. But I thought taking the catch of Hardik Pandya was one of the key moments. We have nothing to lose, we will give it all in our next game. We would like to replicate our performance from the last two games.

Saha is the Man of the Match for his 93.

Maxwell: Firstly, I thought I cost the match with that drop catch. We dropped a few catches and also had a few run-out chances that we missed. I suppose Mohit and Sandeep's last few overs was absolute class. It was very dewy out there, the ball was very slippery and it was tough work but really happy with the guys that they executed. 24 off the last two, with Pollard out there, hats off to our bowlers. Right from the start, we went after it and played some fearless cricket. Our batting on the majority has been good. Hashim led the way for us. Saha with his 93 showed his class and to open the batting was really good. We've got some work to do and need results to go our way. It will be nice to squeeze through the back door.

Rohit Sharma: It is disappointing to be on the losing side. but we put up a great fight. Great effort from boys to be able to reach that score. It was evenly poised when Polly (Pollard) and Hardik were batting, but once Hardik got out it was tough for one guy to hit the big shot. We got to take lot of learning from this game. It was a fresh wicket, was not used this season. There was a bit of grass that held it together. It played true throughout the 40 overs. I do not want to be too critical and too harsh (on bowlers). One game does not change things for us. We have been bowling well, bowling on wickets like these is a challenge for us. They (bowlers) were trying a lot of things but the way Guptill and Maxwell were batting, it was very hard. Not to forget Saha as well. I don't think we lag in any department. As a unit we want to move forward in all three departments The crowd has been brilliant throughout the seven games we have played here. We would like to thank them. It was our last league game here. As expected Mumbai crowd came in good numbers. I am sure we played some great cricket to entertain them.

23:56 Local Time Phew! What a game of cricket. Handshakes all-round. Agony for Mumbai, ecstasy for Punjab. Sensational comeback by the hosts, but couldn't quite cross the finish line. Chasing 231 was always going to be an arduous task. They were off to a blazing start, Parthiv and Simmons plundered the bowlers to all parts of the ground. They were coasting all well and kept things under control. However, Punjab clawed back by removing both openers in quick succession. From there, Mumbai continued to lose wickets in clusters. All batsmen came in and got starts but none could convert them into a big score. Pollard and Pandya kept the belief in the MI camp with their big hitting but in the end, the ever-mounting run rate proved to be the demon and devoured the hosts. Thanks to some brilliant death bowling from Mohit Sharma and Sandeep Sharma. Stick around for the presentations..

19.6

Mohit Sharma to Pollard, 1 run, Mohit seals the deal for his team. Punjab win by 7 runs. Again, fires it in the blockhole, Pollard just about gets his bat down and digs it out

19.5

Mohit Sharma to Pollard, no run, ooh, Mohit has done it. Hurls in a yorker outside off, Pollard can't squeeze it out

19.4

Mohit Sharma to Pollard, no run, dot. Wow. A yorker right at the base of off, all Pollard could do was to squeeze it back to the bowler

19.3

Mohit Sharma to Pollard, no run, low full toss outside off, Pollard dumps it towards long-off, isn't willing to take a single and sends Bhajji back

19.2

Mohit Sharma to Pollard, SIX, wow. Pollard is still keeping Mumbai in the hunt. Pivots back and swats this short ball over deep mid-wicket

19.1

Mohit Sharma to Pollard, 1 run, Mohit is furious. Not happy with his skipper at all. Fullish on the stumps, Pollard bunts it straight down the ground and hustles through for a brace. Maxwell was slow to get to the ball and they will steal the second. Oh, what did I just see? Pollard, in his attempt to come back for the second, fails to plonk his bat over the crease. One-run short. How crucial will it prove to be? Every run is important at this stage and it looked like it was deliberate from Pollard there

16 runs from 6 balls. This match still hangs on a knife's edge. Mohit has been bestowed upon the duty to finish things..

18.6

Sandeep Sharma to Harbhajan, no run, a dot to finish the over. Very full, a yorker outside off, Harbhajan fails to dig it out

18.5

Sandeep Sharma to Pollard, 1 run, he didn't get hold of this, a fuller length delivery outside off, Pollard went chasing after it and smacked it towards extra cover, lands short of the fielder

18.5

Sandeep Sharma to Pollard, wide, harsh but that's the reality. Pollard moves across his sticks, Sandeep sees it and hurls it wide of off. No connection from Pollard but the umpire calls it a wide

Pollard takes a breather, just had a sip of water

18.4

Sandeep Sharma to Pollard, 2 runs, excellent running from the duo. Pollard drives it towards extra cover and collects a brace fuss free

18.3

Sandeep Sharma to Pollard, 2 runs, again keeps it wide of off, Pollard wanted to go over extra cover, drags it off the inner half towards mid-wicket, runs hard and comes back for the second. A better throw from the fielder could've had Pollard in trouble

18.2

Sandeep Sharma to Harbhajan, 1 run, very full outside off, Harbhajan squeezes it towards long-off. Pollard back on strike, just what Mumbai wanted
