MI vs SRH Highlights, IPL 2026: Ryan Rickelton's ton goes in vain as Head, Klaasen power SRH to six-wicket win over MI

Eshan Malinga to Will Jacks, Slow and short, outside off. Will Jacks controls the pull shot to mid-wicket. Sakib Hussain fumbles to stop it to his right and parries it behind but it stays in his vicinity and he is quick to recover. Just a single.

Eshan Malinga to Ryan Rickelton, Deceptive slower ball, on a length, outside leg. Ryan Rickelton tries to whip it over the leg side, but swings his bat months early before the ball arrives. The ball hits his thigh pad and rolls away to the off side for a leg bye.

Eshan Malinga to Ryan Rickelton, Nice and full, around off. Ryan Rickelton drives it to the left of the bowler. Eshan half stops on his follow-through and the ball keeps rolling on the strip.

Change? Yes, Eshan Malinga replaces Praful Hinge. There was a time when the name ‘Malinga’ was almost synonymous with the Wankhede, but here, it is a different story.

Pat Cummins to Will Jacks, At 142.5 kph, this is bashed hard into the pitch, on off. Jacks stands tall and square cuts it crisply, but finds the fielder at backward point. Jacks thinks he missed out on piercing the gap on this one. He lets out a huge grunt. 16 runs from Cummins' second.

Pat Cummins to Will Jacks, FOUR! How beautiful is that shot! Cummins bowls it full and in front of the sticks. Will Jacks gets on the front foot and slices it inside out over extra cover for a boundary. Sweetly timed.

Pat Cummins to Ryan Rickelton, Shin-high full toss, on the pads. Rickelton flicks it to deep mid-wicket for a run.

Pat Cummins to Ryan Rickelton, Much fuller again, on leg. Ryan Rickelton clips it through wide mid-wicket and by the time Heinrich Klaasen from long on mops it to his left, the batters hustle back for the second run.

Pat Cummins to Ryan Rickelton, WIDE! Too straight down the leg stump, full in length. Ryan misses to flick. Wide called.

Pat Cummins to Ryan Rickelton, FOUR! Straight as an arrow! Pitched a little bit fuller, on the stumps. Ryan Rickelton presses forward, keeps his head steady and cracks the straight drive back past the bowler for a boundary. Picture perfect from Rickelton.

Pat Cummins to Ryan Rickelton, FOUR! Muscled! Just around off, on a good length. Ryan Rickelton goes deep in the crease and heaves it over mid-wicket for a cracking boundary. The intent is clearly there from these two openers. Something MI has missed so far this season.

MI have grabbed a bit of momentum with that over and will look to build on it, making this Powerplay big.

Praful Hinge to Will Jacks, BEATEN! Hard length, skidding through, on middle and off. Jacks tries to smash it over mid-wicket, but misses to connect. 15 runs off the over.

Praful Hinge to Will Jacks, That was travelling but Head does well! Hard length, outside off, Jacks slashes hard at it but gets a huge outside edge. The ball goes flat and on the bounce to the left of Travis Head at short third. Travis dives to that direction and cuts it off. A little more carry and that would have been a catch there.

Praful Hinge to Will Jacks, FOUR! Off the top edge! Bangs it short, on top of off. Jacks shimmies down a bit and tries to flat bat it down the ground, but gets a fat top edge and the ball flies over the keeper and trips into the fence for a boundary.

Praful Hinge to Will Jacks, FOUR! Timed to perfection! Back of a length, around off. Will Jacks waits for it, presses back and punches it crisply behind point for a boundary. The deep backward point fielder stands absolutely no chance to cut it off.

Praful Hinge to Ryan Rickelton, Hits the deck hard, on middle, Ryan knocks it wide of mid on for a run.

Praful Hinge to Ryan Rickelton, SIX! In the arc means out of the park! Praful Hinge serves it in the slot, a yard or so behind fuller length, on off. Ryan Rickelton clears the front leg and whips it aerially, dumping it into the stands behind deep mid-wicket.

Praful Hinge to share the attack.

Pat Cummins to Will Jacks, FOUR! That's nonchalantly played! Slightly full in length this time, on middle, nipping in a touch. Will Jacks gets on the front foot and picks it up. Does not connect well and airs off the toe end, but gets enough to clear the mid on fielder to pick up the first boundary of the game. So 6 runs from the first over.

Pat Cummins to Ryan Rickelton, Finally, Rickelton is off the mark. Around off at 142.3 kph, on a good length. Ryan Rickelton tries to drive it on the up to the cover region, but inside edges it to the backward square leg region for a single.

Pat Cummins to Ryan Rickelton, Big swing and a miss! Cummins angles it across the batter, on a length, just outside off. Ryan Rickelton has a big swipe across the line but misses as the ball sneaks close to his inside edge.

We are all set to begin now! Regardless of the results, the ever-passionate MI Paltan continues to turn up in numbers, painting the Wankhede in a sea of blue and it is no different here in Mumbai tonight. Out come the two umpires, followed by the Sunrisers Hyderabad players who spread out to take their respective field positions. A new opening combination for the Mumbai Indians - Will Jacks and Ryan Rickelton. The skipper of SRH, Pat Cummins has the new ball in his hand and is raring to go. Let's play...

Impact sub options for SRH - Ravichandran Smaran, Aniket Verma, Liam Livingstone, Shivang Kumar and Harshal Patel.

Sunrisers Hyderabad (Playing XI) - Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan (WK), Heinrich Klaasen, Salil Arora, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Pat Cummins (C), Harsh Dubey (In place of Shivang Kumar), Sakib Hussain, Praful Hinge and Eshan Malinga.

Impact sub options for MI -  Mayank Rawat, Raghu Sharma, Shardul Thakur, Krish Bhagat and Raj Bawa.

Mumbai Indians (Playing XI) - Ryan Rickelton (WK) (In place of Quinton de Kock), Will Jacks (In place of Sherfane Rutherford), Naman Dhir, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (C), Robin Minz (In place of Krish Bhagat), Trent Boult (In place of Mitchell Santner), Jasprit Bumrah, AM Ghazanfar and Ashwani Kumar.

The captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad - Pat Cummins, about his thoughts on the toss result, says that they would have bowled first anyway. Details that it's a bit tacky in nature, so they are happy to bowl. More broadly, he stresses the importance of resetting expectations from game to game, noting that each pitch asks different questions and the key is to assess the conditions in front of you rather than arrive with a fixed mindset. On team changes, Cummins confirms Harsh Dubey comes into the side in place of Shivang Kumar. On supporting his bowlers through difficult spells, Cummins says he hopes they trust what he tells them. He shares that he uses his own opinion of the pitch to guide them and is not shy about the fact that he has been hit around himself in the past. For him, he says, it is about putting an arm around his bowlers and making sure they feel backed and confident enough to come back hard.

The captain of the Mumbai Indians - Hardik Pandya says that it looks like a breezy and cold evening and dew would not play a factor, so they want to put up a good score. Adds that they just needed to take some time off, had a couple of good boys' night outs. Pandya shares that it was important for all of them to just reset and not get too complicated. He reckons they are refreshed and are excited for this game. Hardik informs that it was an unfortunate injury to Santner and Quinton de Kock has also done something to his wrist. So, Ryan Rickelton comes in the team along with Robin Minz. Ends by saying that Rohit will take a couple of more games, he is trying but still not where he wants to be.
