MI vs RR, IPL 2018: Rajasthan Royals beat Mumbai Indians by seven wickets

We are back for the chase. D'Arcy Short and Jos Buttler to open the batting for Rajasthan. Jasprit Bumrah to begin the proceedings with the ball. Here we go...

Archer by far was the best bowler for Rajasthan. He gave away just 16 runs in his four overs and got a couple of important wickets. Lewis at the other end though carried on and registered a fine fifty. He was looking to cut loose but was caught in the deep soon after reaching the landmark and Mumbai had a short little lull period following that. All thanks to Hardik Pandya's breezy knock, the hosts got to 168. He along with Cutting smashed 32 runs in the final two overs and gave some respectability to their score. 169 isn't a big target considering Wankhede is a tough ground to defend and dew too might play a role in the run chase. Join us in a while for Rajasthan's reply.

Good comeback by the visiting team! They pulled things back quite sharply after the 87-run opening stand between Suryakumar Yadav and Evin Lewis. Mumbai were going great guns as both the batsmen were looking in terrific rhythm. At that stage, it looked like Mumbai might end up with a score in excess of 200 but the double strike from Archer in the 11th over got Rajasthan back in the game.

Ben Stokes to Ben Cutting, Fullish delivery around middle, Cuttling slogs it towards wide long on and hares back for the second. MUMBAI FINISH ON 168/6!

Ben Stokes to H Pandya, OUT! That's a spectacular catch from Samson! Take a bow, young man. Shortish delivery, Pandya pulls it hard towards deep mid-wicket. Samson moves to his right, dives full length and takes a one-handed stunner. A handy contribution from Pandya this.

Ben Stokes to H Pandya, The ball is down the leg side but the batsman still goes after it and misses.

Ben Stokes to H Pandya, FOUR! Cheeky shot from Hardik! He expects a slower bumper from Stokes and accordingly reacts. He gets inside the line of the delivery and scoops. The ball hits the upper half of the bat and rolls past the keeper who tries to stop that with a full length dive but fails.

J Unadkat to H Pandya, In the air...lands safely! Hardik goes for the heave, top edges it to the mid-wicket region. No one in the zone to catch it. Surprisingly, the Mumbai pair take just the single.
