Thats it ! the last match of the innings is bowled and LSG win by 18 runs. Mumbai were in trouble at the start by losing Rohit for yet another low score but it was Brevis's innings of 31 off 13 deliveries that helped them end the Powerplay on a high. He fell later and Mumbai were 3 down and looked upon Yadav once again to save them. SKY and Varma kept the scoreboard ticking and took the game deep. Few hopes were dead when Suryakumar Yadav perished but it was the big man, Pollard who kept the faith alive. A substantial innings was needed from him and something spectacular was required but the chase was just too big for the big man. Jaydev Unadkat and Murugan Ashwin tried hard but only tried.
RUN OUT! A miscommunication between the batters and Jaydev Unadkat has been run out. Murugan Ashwin walks out. He will be on the strike and its a six! WOW! Mumbai are still in it

Mumbai Indians have won the toss and have opted to field against LSG.
Quinton de Kock has hit two fifties in five matches so far as has Deepak Hooda. Young Ayush Badoni has played a couple of crucial knocks towards the end of the innings. Leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi has been in fine form for LSG, picking 4 wickets but more importantly has been economical in his spells, only once going at more than 7.5 an over.
Former England cricketer Graeme Swann feels Mumbai Indians should adopt the “ultra aggressive” approach CSK showed against RCB as it aims for its first win of the season.
“Mumbai Indians basically need to take a template from what CSK did against RCB and copy that going forward” Swann said on Star Sports. “If they can go with an ultra-aggressive intent, they will be able to win (their upcoming matches),” the former off spinner said.
1. Two more sixes will take skipper Rohit Sharma to 200 T20 sixes for MI.
2. Surykumar Yadav needs to score the 57 more runs he needs to complete 2000 T20 runs for MI.
3. Pacer Jaydev Unadkat is three wickets short of completing 200 wickets in all T20s.
For MI, SKY has hit two fifties and a 43 in his three matches while young gun Tilak Varma has impressed whenever he has walked out to bat, with a high score of 61.
