He does not look too happy about it and wants to have a go but has been held back by some Mumbai players! Despite the commotion, Kolkata are now three wickets down and Mumbai are chipping away at the wickets. Hrithik Shokeen floats this full and outside the off stump. Nitish Rana shimmies down the wicket and looks to clear the infield. He miscues this and it goes high towards Ramandeep Singh (sub) at long on who makes no mistake grabbing hold of this.

8:13 pmRight then, Mumbai have won on a special day, wearing the women's team jersey and playing in front of 19000 young girls! They could not have written a better script! The action in the Indian T20 League continues as we have a rematch of the last year's final. Gujarat are hosting Rajasthan at the Narendra Modi Stadium and the game is underway. Do switch tabs and catch the action. From here, goodbye and cheers!

7:53 pmThe Player of the Match award has been given to Venkatesh Iyer despite being in the losing team for his remarkable 104 in just 51 deliveries as he proved to be a lone fighter in the visitors' batting order.

7:41 pmThe Kolkata bowlers were under the gun right from the word go and were unable to put any sort of pressure on the batters. They lacked discipline and conceded far too many boundary deliveries with only Suyash Sharma coming out of this tie with something to be proud of. He claimed two wickets for 27 runs in his four overs with Lockie Ferguson, Varun Chakaravarthy, and Shardul Thakur chipping in with one wicket each towards the end. They will be disappointed they could not keep Venkatesh Iyer on the winning side after his remarkable century in the first inning.

7:40 pmMumbai pulled off a surprise in the run-chase by bringing on Rohit Sharma as an Impact Player and he put on a 65-run partnership with Ishan Kishan for the first wicket. He was dismissed after getting off to a start but Ishan went on to score an attacking half-century. Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma played well through the middle overs and got the team close to the finish line. Suryakumar Yadav fell seven runs short of his fifty but Tim David played the role of a finisher to perfection and got his side over the finish line with 14 balls to spare.

7:40 pmThis has been a comprehensive win by Mumbai! They have absolutely nailed this run chase and ascertained their superiority over this opposition with their 23rd win in 32 encounters. They now have consecutive wins and the momentum is back in the favour of the hosts after a poor start to their campaign. Kolkata have now lost two consecutive games after the remarkable rescue job pulled off by Rinku Singh and will want need to figure out what is going wrong at the earliest.

4	16.1: Shardul Thakur to Tim David, FOUR! Lovely shot! Shardul Thakur overpitches this one, outside off, Tim David squeezes it over point for a boundary.

7:07 pmStrategic break! With just 15 runs required to get, Mumbai have one foot already over the finish line. This should be an easy win for the hosts and they will look to get these remaining runs in a hurry. Kolkata have conceded far too many boundaries and have not been able to maintain the pressure and look like a team that has been beaten on the field.

This is bowled back of a length as well and outside the off stump. Rinku Singh looks to pull this over long on and does not connect like he would have liked. He hits this straight into the hands of Nehal Wadhera at long on and Kolkata are now six wickets down. 172/6

   c Umesh Yadav b Suyash Sharma 4.5 Suyash Sharma to Rohit Sharma, OUT! TAKEN! Suyash Sharma draws first blood! The Kolkata Impact Player sends the Mumbai Impact Player back to the hut. This is tossed up, full and on off, Rohit Sharma makes room and tries to drive, but checks it at the last moment. As a result, it goes in the air towards mid off where Umesh Yadav flies to his left and grabs it really well. Rohit Sharma goes after a good cameo! 65/1
   Ishan Kishan (Wk)	58	25	5	5	232.00
   b Varun Chakaravarthy 7.3 Varun Chakaravarthy to Ishan Kishan, OUT! TIMBER! One shot too many for Ishan Kishan and he has to depart after a fine knock! Varun Chakaravarthy gives the ball a bit more air and loops it into the stumps on a fuller length. Ishan Kishan looks to heave this into the leg side once again but misses and the ball goes off the pads onto the stumps. Kolkata have their second wicket and will be hoping for a few more here. Ishan Kishan makes the long walk back to the shed amidst cheers from the crowd.  87/2
   Suryakumar Yadav (C)	43	25	4	3	172.00
   c Rahmanullah Gurbaz b Shardul Thakur 16.3 Shardul Thakur to Suryakumar Yadav, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Shardul Thakur strikes, but it is too little too late for Kolkata. A soft dismissal for Suryakumar Yadav. Thakur bangs this onto the pitch and around off, Suryakumar Yadav makes room and tries to ramp it away, but gets thing outside edge towards the keeper where Rahmanullah Gurbaz makes no mistake. Sky has done his job though for the team as they are just 10 runs away from the win now. 176/4
   Tilak Varma	30	25	3	1	120.00
   b Suyash Sharma 13.5 Suyash Sharma to Tilak Varma, OUT! CHOPPED ON! Suyash Sharma has bowled a remarkable over here and gets rewarded with a wicket! He bowls this one short, just outside the off pole and gets this one to spin back into the batter. Tilak Varma looks to push this into the off side and gets an inside edge onto the stumps. Tilak Varma seemed to be struggling in this over and has to make the long walk back to the shed. Mumbai have lost their third wicket and need 39 runs to win in 37 balls.  147/3

He bangs this onto the pitch and around off, Nehal Wadhera looks to cut it away, but misses and Rahmanullah Gurbaz collects it behind the stumps. Lockie Ferguson appeals for it, but Gurbaz is not interested. However, Nitish Rana goes for the reveiw and UltraEdge shows a spike when the ball is close to the bat. The on-field call is changed and Nehal Wadhera has to make that long walk back. Still two runs neeeded to win! 184/5

8:13 pmRight then, Mumbai have won on a special day, wearing the women's team jersey and playing in front of 19000 young girls! They could not have written a better script! The action in the Indian T20 League continues as we have a rematch of the last year's final. Gujarat are hosting Rajasthan at the Narendra Modi Stadium and the game is underway. Do switch tabs and catch the action. From here, goodbye and cheers!

7:53 pmThe Player of the Match award has been given to Venkatesh Iyer despite being in the losing team for his remarkable 104 in just 51 deliveries as he proved to be a lone fighter in the visitors' batting order.

7:41 pmThe Kolkata bowlers were under the gun right from the word go and were unable to put any sort of pressure on the batters. They lacked discipline and conceded far too many boundary deliveries with only Suyash Sharma coming out of this tie with something to be proud of. He claimed two wickets for 27 runs in his four overs with Lockie Ferguson, Varun Chakaravarthy, and Shardul Thakur chipping in with one wicket each towards the end. They will be disappointed they could not keep Venkatesh Iyer on the winning side after his remarkable century in the first inning.

7:40 pmMumbai pulled off a surprise in the run-chase by bringing on Rohit Sharma as an Impact Player and he put on a 65-run partnership with Ishan Kishan for the first wicket. He was dismissed after getting off to a start but Ishan went on to score an attacking half-century. Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma played well through the middle overs and got the team close to the finish line. Suryakumar Yadav fell seven runs short of his fifty but Tim David played the role of a finisher to perfection and got his side over the finish line with 14 balls to spare.

7:40 pmThis has been a comprehensive win by Mumbai! They have absolutely nailed this run chase and ascertained their superiority over this opposition with their 23rd win in 32 encounters. They now have consecutive wins and the momentum is back in the favour of the hosts after a poor start to their campaign. Kolkata have now lost two consecutive games after the remarkable rescue job pulled off by Rinku Singh and will want need to figure out what is going wrong at the earliest.

4	16.1: Shardul Thakur to Tim David, FOUR! Lovely shot! Shardul Thakur overpitches this one, outside off, Tim David squeezes it over point for a boundary.

7:07 pmStrategic break! With just 15 runs required to get, Mumbai have one foot already over the finish line. This should be an easy win for the hosts and they will look to get these remaining runs in a hurry. Kolkata have conceded far too many boundaries and have not been able to maintain the pressure and look like a team that has been beaten on the field.
