Punjab Kings
So that is it from this game! Indian T20 League action though continues as Rajasthan take on Kolkata on 24th April 2021. That game begins at 1930 local (1400 GMT). Till then, take care and goodbye!
KL Rahul, the Punjab skipper and the MAN OF THE MATCH, he says that they are still a young team and it is important to be patient. Adds that they are trying to give opportunities to many players. About the toss, says that he had a long chat with the coach about batting second and he wanted his bowlers to bowl early on this wicket. Adds that they also thought that dew would ease the pitch in the second half but it didn't happen. Says that Gayle brings in a lot of experience and it was nice to see him bat. Praises Bishnoi for the way he bowled and says that he is very brave. Finishes by saying that he is happy with the way he is batting and it gets slightly easier while chasing when he knows the target.
Rohit Sharma, the Mumbai skipper, says that they did not have enough runs on the board. Adds that it isn't a bad wicket to bat on but the application is lacking from their side and if they get 150-160 on this pitch then it is good enough. Tells that the Punjab bowlers bowled really well in the Powerplay. Says that he and Kishan looked to hit the balls but weren't able to. Tells that Kishan coming over Suryakumar Yadav was a tactical decision as they needed someone to bat in the middle overs against spinners.
Mayank Agarwal is down for a chat, he says that it is nice to get 2 points on the board. Adds that discussion with KL Rahul was to keep things simple and play proper cricketing strokes. Says that they wanted to get a good Powerplay and they are glad that they did. Adds that he has taken up the onus of keeping the energy while fielding.
Earlier in the day, after being inserted, Mumbai were restricted to only 131 despite Rohit scoring a half-ton. Punjab bowlers were exceptional especially Shami and Bishnoi. In reply, their skipper led the way with a fine half-ton and took them over the line.
The Mumbai bowling did not begin in the best of manners, they bowled way too many boundary balls and the first six overs cost them the game. Chahar did brilliantly once again to get his side back but he did not receive a lot of support from the rest.
It was all about the start though, the openers got Punjab off to a flier. Agarwal did fall and then there were a few tight overs in between that kept the run rate kept on the rise. However, some really clever batting from Gayle and Rahul took their side over the line.
That is a superb run chase from Punjab! Really good from Rahul who was there from start to end for his side. Took the responsibility on himself and has finished the game off.

Mumbai Indians
The chase begins! Mumbai players make their way out to the middle. KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal will open for Punjab. Trent Boult will be the first one to use the new ball.
The target is a small one but the pitch is quite tricky. Mumbai’s bowlers are in form and they know how to defend on this ground. Punjab’s batting, on the other hand, is struggling a bit. Who will come out on top? Your questions will be answered over the next 20 overs. Stay tuned for the chase!
Rohit and Yadav did get Mumbai back into the game with a good stand but they needed one of them to bat long. That was not the case as Both fell at the wrong time. Mumbai couldn’t finish well but will happy to finish where they are after the start they got.
Right from the word go, they were on the money. Started off with Henriques and Hooda in the Powerplay and that worked brilliantly. They choked the runs and Hooda also got de Kock. Ravi Bishnoi then did his job in the middle phase. Shami and Arshdeep Singh finished things on a high for them.
End of a superb bowling performance from Punjab and they will be pretty pleased with how things stand at the moment.
Ravi Bishnoi says the wicket is sticky, it is not easy to hit the spinners and his team has bowled well. Adds the good length area is the area to bowl. States bowling wide outside off is not the way to go and you need to be more on the stumps. Ends by saying, that he feels his team can chase this down.

Rohit Sharma, the Mumbai skipper, says they were going to bat first, there is a cloud cover so there might not be dew. Adds they have understood how to bat as a group now and he hopes they can do well in this group. Informs they are unchanged.
KL Rahul, the Punjab skipper says they are going to bowl first. Mentions they just lacked a little bit of cricket smartness, the middle order needed to bat carefully after they lost early wickets and he hopes they learn from their mistakes in the last game. Informs there’s just one change, Ravi Bishnoi comes in for Ashwin.
TOSS - Punjab win the toss and they have decided to bowl first.
PITCH REPORT - Matthew Hayden is down for the pitch report. Hayden says that is extremely difficult to bat on this wicket as it is turning a lot here. Adds that the wicket is dry and one would need to be tough like AB de Villiers to emerge victorious on this track.
Hardik Pandya says he does not miss the bowling but it’s not putting pressure on his batting. States it is a part and parcel of the game and he has learned how to deal with it. Mentions you need to be challenged, batting has been difficult but he has realized everyday is a new day and he can do well here.
Hello and welcome to another game of the Indian T20 League. This is a clash between Mumbai and Punjab. One side which is struggling to find a win and the other has been inconsistent. Both though will be eager to win this one. A win for Punjab will boost their morale as they will beat the defending champions. A win for Mumbai will get them back to winning ways. The question is, what will the captains do after winning the toss. Batting first was working initially but the last two games has been won by the teams chasing. Stay tuned to see what decision the winning captain makes.
