Change? Not yet. Deepak Chahar (2-1-16-0) to continue.

Jasprit Bumrah to Josh Inglis, At 138.9 kph, on a nagging length, on off, Josh swings across the line and the ball goes on the bounce to deep third off an outside edge. A single taken. End of a successful over for Jasprit Bumrah and MI.

Jasprit Bumrah to Josh Inglis, There comes the slower yorker from Bumrah that dips on the batter, on the line of the off stump. Josh Inglis manages to keep it out safely.

Jasprit Bumrah to Josh Inglis, On a hard length, on off, Josh Inglis stands tall and punches it to backward point.

Jasprit Bumrah to Josh Inglis, Beaten! Full and moving away a bit. It sneaks inside the tramline and Josh Inglis goes flashing at it. Gets beaten on the outside edge.

Josh Inglis is in at 3 for Punjab Kings.

Jasprit Bumrah to Prabhsimran Singh, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Ashwani Kumar redeems himself! The dropped catch in the previous over does not cost much to MI. Bumrah cleverly takes pace off as he rolls his fingers over the ball, on a length, on off, Singh skips down the track but does not get to the pitch of the ball. Swings to go back over the bowler's head and it goes off the outer half of the bat towards deep third. Kumar runs in off the ropes and dives in front to snaffle it. Prabhsimran Singh departs after a shaky start - 13 (16) and PBKS are 34/1.

Jasprit Bumrah is introduced into the attack now. 16 wickets so far this season. He replaces Trent Boult.

Jasprit Bumrah to Prabhsimran Singh, Just short! Angling in, on a nagging length, on middle, Singh half-heartedly jabs at it. It lobs towards mid on where Trent Boult slides in front but the ball drops short.

Deepak Chahar to Priyansh Arya, FOUR! Gets it through! Deepak sticks to the pace off option, on a length, on off, Priyansh Arya punches it sweetly through covers for a boundary. 16 runs off the over.

Deepak Chahar to Priyansh Arya, On a length, on off, pace taken off, punched to cover.

Deepak Chahar to Priyansh Arya, Wide! Full and this is well wide on off, beyond the tramline.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, DROPPED! MI's impact sub, Ashwani Kumar, puts it down! Never looked comfortable under it, did Kumar. Slower one and on the fuller side, at the stumps, Prabhsimran Singh takes a step down the track and tries to launch it down the ground. Skies it straight up towards the mid-wicket region and it goes a long way up. Swirls in the night sky and Ashwani fails to settle himself under it. He is on the move when the ball hits the palm and it pops out eventually. A single taken.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, FOUR! Clubbed! Deepak Chahar goes into the wicket and it is the slower one. It sits up to to be hit and Prabhsimran Singh waits on it before slapping it to the left of mid off for a boundary.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, Singh tries the scoop again but it does not quite come off for him this time! It is the knuckelball from Deepak and the length is pulled back, over off, Prabhsimran walks across for the scoop but gets beaten on the inside edge. The ball deflects away beside the pitch on the leg side off the gloves of Ryan Rickelton, who is still standing up to the stumps.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, SIX! Innovative and mighty effective! With the keeper up to the stumps, Chahar serves it full, on the off stump, Prabhsimran Singh is quick to get down on a knee and gets inside the line. Plays the scoop over deep fine leg for a six.

Impact player time. Mumbai Indians have decided to use their impact sub as Ashwani Kumar comes in. He is swapped in for Rohit Sharma. With Ashwani coming in, this makes the Mumbai Indians pace attack a 'penta-crew'.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, Brilliant stop by Suryakumar Yadav! This is on a length, on off, Priyansh Arya stays still in the crease and thrashes it towards cover where SKY dives to his right and makes the stop. Saves a certain boundary.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, On top of the off stump, on a short of a length, Priyansh Arya steers it to short third.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, On a nagging length, on middle and this does not move in the air. Slides onto the bat as Priyansh Arya jabs it through mid-wicket for a couple of runs.

Trent Boult to Prabhsimran Singh, Goes full and there is a hint of late inward shape towards the right-hander, Prabhsimran Singh swats it away along the ground to deep square leg for one.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, Leg bye! On the pads, on a length, Priyansh Arya fails to get any bat on the flick. A leg bye is taken as the ball goes off the pads towards backward square leg.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, FOUR! Not where Arya intended, but he will take it! On a good length, outside the off stump, Priyansh does not move his feet at all and just goes through the line. Looks to go over the top on the off side but gets a thickish outside edge that goes well over short third for a boundary.

A maiden over, that too, in the Powerplay! Top stuff from Deepak Chahar this. Boult to continue from the other end.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, A maiden from Deepak despite the hamstring issue! This moves back in the air, on a length, on off, Prabhsimran Singh waits back and stabs it down the deck.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, Five dots in a row! This is on a short of a good length, outside off, Prabhsimran Singh gives the bowler the charge and heaves across the line. The ball sneaks under the bat and goes on the bounce to the keeper.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, Better from Chahar! Takes pace off and attacks the stumps with a fuller ball, Prabhsimran Singh pushes it to cover.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, Still a bit too short and wide on off, Prabhsimran Singh steers it with an open bat face to short third.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, Chahar gets away with one here! Short and well wide on off, outside the tramline, Prabhsimran Singh reaches out to cut but bunts it off the toe end towards point. It would have been a wide had Singh left it.

Deepak Chahar is getting his left hamstring strapped up. The physio is out to the middle. He looked in a bit of a discomfort during the run-up. Gets it done and we are good to go.

Deepak Chahar to Prabhsimran Singh, Pitched up and swinging away, on off, Prabhsimran Singh knocks it with a straight bat towards mid off where Hardik Pandya dives to his right and cuts it off with a dive.

Who bowls next? Bumrah? Chahar? The latter. Deepak Chahar is into the attack.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, FOUR! Uppish but in the gap! Boult is again a bit too short for the southpaw, around off, Priyansh Arya hangs back and lifts it with almost a straight bat between cover and cover-point for a boundary. A positive start to the chase for PBKS.

Trent Boult to Prabhsimran Singh, Angling away, on a good length, Prabhsimran pats it in front of cover and is off for a quick single.

Trent Boult to Prabhsimran Singh, An optimistic shout for LBW! Tailing back in, on the fuller side, pitching just outside the line of the leg stump, Singh is late on the flick and catches it on the boot.

Trent Boult to Prabhsimran Singh, This comes back in a bit into the right-hander, on off, on a back of a length, Prabhsimran Singh gets a bit too close to the ball and guides it to backward point.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, Moving away in the air again, in the channel on off, on a back of a length, Priyansh Arya glides it down to deep third for a single.

Trent Boult to Priyansh Arya, FOUR! Priyansh Arya and the Punjab Kings are underway in some style! Shaping away, fractionally short, outside off, Arya plays it with a high elbow as he lofts it over cover off the back foot for a boundary.

Welcome back, folks, for PBKS' response with the bat. The umpires and players are out in the middle. Hardik Pandya leads his men out as MI players spread out to the field. For Punjab Kings, it is the opening pair of Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh, with the latter being brought in as the impact sub in place of Vyshak Vijaykumar. Trent Boult has the new ball and is raring to go.  Arya to face Boult first up. Off we go...

... THE RUN CHASE ...

Well then, 185 is the magic number for Punjab Kings to secure a top-two finish. Par or under-par? Usually, in high pressure games where everything is on the line, and as SKY said in the chat, having runs on the board is a huge positive. Yes, the pitch is a bit so-so for batting, but Mumbai Indians have got a fighting total nevertheless. Arshdeep Singh, Marco Jansen and others have done the job for PBKS and it is now time for the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult to test the batters. How will the young dynamic opening pair of the Kings adapt against high quality MI pace attack? A strong start is all what will set the tone for either of the two sides. Back in a bit for the second essay.

Suryakumar Yadav of Mumbai Indians is up for a quick chat with the broadcasters. He says it was a little challenging. He felt the wicket was a little sticky but overall good to bat on. He thinks they are 10-15 runs short, given how Hardik, Will and Naman were batting. But he feels that having runs on the board in a pressure game always helps, and he feels it's a fighting total. He mentions, pace off deliveries will work on this wicket and it won't be an easy chase. He says he's happy with his innings. He tells his favourites today were sweeps, flick, but he feels him batting till the end was the most important thing.

In the end, it was all about SKY’s brilliance. Offered a reprieve while batting on 45 off a dropped catch, he went on to score a sensational fifty. SKY and Naman Dhir opened the floodgates with a 23-run penultimate over against Vyshak Vijaykumar. Until that point, MI were well within touching distance of getting past 190, however, Arshdeep Singh spoiled their party a bit in the end, giving away just three runs in the final over.

Wickets kept tumbling in the crucial 7-15 over stretch, with three key batters departing, leaving MI with just 79 runs in that phase. Just when things seemed to be slipping away, Suryakumar Yadav took charge with relentless intent to keep MI in the fight. Hardik Pandya provided a stabilizing presence, injecting momentum, but even he couldn't convert his start into something substantial.

PBKS may not have made early inroads, but their bowling discipline was impeccable. They stuck to sharp lines and lengths, using the bounce effectively to keep batters in check. The pacers ensured Mumbai couldn’t hit full throttle, limiting their charge to sporadic boundaries. Still, SKY and Rohit kept the scoreboard ticking, navigating the tricky middle overs with grit. The run rate stayed healthy at 8-9 per over, but Rohit, battling timing issues, eventually fell trying to break free. His departure triggered a mini-collapse, as Tilak and Jacks followed suit, turning MI’s solid 81/1 into a shaky 106/4.

Mumbai Indians took a calculated approach at the start, with Ryan Rickelton playing the aggressor while Rohit Sharma eased into his innings. Rickelton wasted no time in finding the gaps and keeping the scoreboard moving, but his promising knock was cut short before he could truly capitalise. The bowlers initially found some swing, but it disappeared within the first six overs, leaving the steep bounce at times as the key challenge for batters. By the end of the Powerplay, MI had reached 52/1.

There are very few bowlers across the globe who can get three yorkers right on the money in the final over. Jasprit Bumrah is, of course, the first name that pops up in everyone's minds, but the silent assassin, Arshdeep Singh, has built his own reputation of doing so, and that too, with ridiculous consistency. And to execute it against Suryakumar Yadav is just mind-boggling. All in all, it was a disciplined bowling show from PBKS, barring that penultimate over, and for Mumbai Indians, wickets kept tumbling, but it was SKY who remained till the last, helping MI to get to a respectable total. 

Whoa! Suryakumar Yadav has opted for the review, but he is already walking off. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking shows the wickets on the umpire's call. OUT!

Arshdeep Singh to Suryakumar Yadav, OUT! LBW! Arshdeep Singh ends the over in the best possible fashion! From over the wicket, the yorker is nailed by Singh at the base of the off stump. Suryakumar Yadav reaches out in front and tries to play the reverse scoop. He is beaten on the outside edge and the ball hits him on the boot. The finger is raised but SKY takes the review, more in hope than anything else. The Ball Tracking shows that the ball is clipping the off stump and it is umpire's call. Not as straight as it looked initially but the on-field call is upheld. MI finish with 184 on the board!
