Mumbai Indians
Right then, that's all from this game. It is Mumbai who have secured their first win of the season whereas Delhi will have to wait a little longer for their first victory. The Indian T20 League, 2023 action continues on Wednesday, 12th April where Chennai will host Rajasthan at the MA Chidambaram Stadium and the first ball will be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). As always, you can join us in advance for the build-up. Until then, take care and goodbye!
Rohit Sharma, the skipper of Mumbai is the Player of the Match for his brilliant knock of 65 runs from 45 balls. He says that getting over the line is a good feeling. Adds that they have been working hard with the team and getting the first win is always special and they will cherish it. Tells that they played a Test here not long ago and the pitch did not look that different and that is why they selected the spinners which turned out to be a good decision and credits his pacers as well. Mentions that when he went out to bat his plan was to make use of the Powerplay and then see how the game goes. Tells that Tilak Varma batted well too and the big partnership with him was crucial. Says that they have a lot of youngsters and they need to back them up to give them confidence and they don't want to make drastic changes according to results. Ends by saying they want to create a good atmosphere.
Time for the presentations...
One of the stars with the bat for Mumbai, Cameron Green is in for a chat. He says that he is barely breathing, but is happy to be on the winning end. Tells that the chat between him and David was to be busy at the wicket and luckily they were able to hit a few maximums. Mentions that they are here for moments like this and it is exciting. Ends by saying that he knew he was safe when the throw went to the other end and says that Tim David is a big man and can dive.
David Warner, the skipper of Delhi, says that the last three games have been amazing in this tournament. Adds that he is disappointed to be on the wrong end, but credits his bowlers to make a game out of it. Tells that Anrich Nortje and Mustafizur Rahman were brilliant, and in this format, it only takes one or two balls to change the game. Mentions that as Tim David was running at the batter's end he tried to throw over him, but it did not work out. Says that they need to stop losing wickets in clumps as it kills the momentum, and praises Axar Patel for his amazing knock, but admits that the par total was around 180 here.
Earlier in the game, after Rohit Sharma called it right and opted to bowl first, Delhi did lose Prithvi Shaw early but David Warner and Manish Pandey kept the scoreboard ticking by scoring freely. The duo stitched a 43-run stand and at that stage, Delhi were going along nicely in their batting effort. However, Pandey's dismissal meant Delhi lost their way during the middle overs. Axar Patel joined David Warner and forged a solid recovery with a 67-run partnership. After the departure of Axar Patel, no other batter was able to maximize the final two overs and Delhi were bowled out inside the 20 overs. For Mumbai, Jason Behrendorff and Piyush Chawla were the stars with the ball accounting for 3 wickets each.
After failing to bat the full quota of 20 overs, Delhi had their backs against the wall and they surely gave it their all in their bowling effort. The home team did not manage to start well and they leaked a lot of runs in the Powerplay. Their spinners did find some good purchases on this surface but were unable to find any success during the middle overs. They did manage to get rid of Tilak Varma and capitalised on that scalp by dismissing Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma in the space of a few deliveries. At that stage, Delhi sensed an opening but it was always going to be tough against the strong batting unit of Mumbai. With only 4 runs to defend, Anrich Nortje bowled an exceptional final over but it wasn't enough on the night.
In their pursuit of 173, Mumbai were off to a flying start courtesy of the opening pair. Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan found boundaries at will and the away side raced to 70 in 7 overs. Just when the duo was going along nicely, a mixup between the two resulted in the departure of Ishan Kishan. This unfortunate dismissal did not deter Rohit Sharma as he kept going at the other end and ensured that Mumbai kept up with the required run rate. Tilak Varma was at his fluent best as well and stitched a 68-run stand with his skipper. At that stage, it looked like Mumbai would cruise home but they were pegged back, losing three wickets in quick succession. Impact Player Tim David was sent into bat and he along with Cameron Green steadied the ship. With 5 runs needed off the final over, Tim David and Cameron Green failed to find the big shots against Anrich Nortje but held their nerves to take Mumbai over the line.
The Indian T20 League, 2023 continues to deliver cliffhangers every night and at the end of this one, it is Mumbai who come out on top. Mumbai were made to work hard but they are finally off the mark in the Indian T20 League, 2023. As far as Delhi are concerned, it was a case of so near yet so far but they will take pride in taking the game till the final ball.

Anrich Nortje to Tim David, Mumbai win a thriller here! Anrich Nortje nails a low full toss around off, Tim David jams it out towards long off and sets off for the run, the batters turn around for the second as David Warner charges onto the ball and throws it at the keeper's end, but his throw is too high and Abishek Porel has to jump and collect and then break the stumps as Tim David puts in a desperate dive. The replay shows that David is in safely. MUMBAI WIN BY SIX WICKETS!
More drama as Tim David has asked for a change of bat. Is this the bat that takes Mumbai over the line?

Rohit Sharma goes back after playing a brilliant knock.
Is that out? Abishek Porel behind the wickets has taken a one-handed stunner diving full length to his right. Rohit Sharma thinks it is a bump ball and has opted for the review. But no, the replays show that it is not a bump ball and Rohit Sharma has to make his way back.

Strategic break! Despite the loss of Ishan Kishan in the previous over, this is a solid start by Mumbai.

On the other hand, Delhi have been unable to keep the pressure on the opposition batters but were rewarded with the prized scalp of Ishan Kishan. They will look to squeeze in a couple of quiet overs against the newly arrived Tilak Varma and claw their way back into the game. David Warner now brings Anrich Nortje back into the attack.

Delhi Capitals
We are back for the chase! The players are making their way out to the middle now. Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan are the two openers for Mumbai. Delhi have used their Impact Player as Mukesh Kumar replaces Prithvi Shaw and has the new ball in his hand. Here we go...
... THE RUN CHASE ...
Right then, Delhi have posted a fighting total on the board, but they would have liked some more as dew could be a factor. Mumbai have the momentum on their side and they will need to start well to set the base for this chase. They have the quality, but they have to show that on the field now. It is going to be an exciting chase to watch. Let's see how it unfolds.
The star of the moment for Delhi, Axar Patel is in for a flash interview. Says that he was backing himself and went through with his shots if the ball was in his slot. Adds that the ball was stopping on the surface and holding the shape while hitting was important. Mentions that he tried not to hit the ball hard. Feels that 172 is a challenging total on this wicket and hopes to defend this total.
Mumbai, on the other hand will have mixed feelings about their bowling performance. They got an early breakthrough, but could not build on them. However, Piyush Chawla absolutely brilliant in the middle overs and got rid of the middle order alone. They were a bit sloppy in the field and dropped crucial chances which has cost them some extra runs. But they pulled things back nicely in the last two overs with Jason Behrendorff and Riley Meredith coming good. Chawla was the pick of the bowlers with his three wickets while Jason Behrendorff also got three scalps. Riley Meredith picked up a couple of wickets and Hrithik Shokeen got one to his name. The onus is now on the batters to get them their first win of the season.
Delhi got off to a decent start with Prithvi Shaw playing some lusty blows before getting out. Then it was David Warner and Manish Pandey who steadied the ship for a bit, but Pandey could not stick around for long. They lost their way in the middle as they kept losing wickets, but just like in all the other matches, Warner held one end and registered another half-century. However, Axar Patel took charge and smashed a brilliant fifty off just 23 balls to provide the much-needed impetus. Both of them added 67 runs together but they got out in the 19th over for 51 and 54 respectively. That started a collapse for them as Delhi could only score six runs after that and were bowled out.
What a comeback from Mumbai! They only conceded seven runs in the last two overs and picked up five wickets to bundle Delhi out for 172. Before that, Delhi were looking good to go beyond 190, but the bowlers stepped up and the away team will be the happier side going into the break.
