19.4 - Pandya to Kohli, FOUR, another full toss, would you believe that? So easy for Kohli as he simply lofts it inside out over cover, one bounce over the ropes

19.3 - Pandya to Kohli, FOUR, full toss on the pads, whipped stylishly over mid-wicket, the fielder went to his left but couldn't get there. This is bad bowling and gifts for the BLR batsmen

18.5 - Malinga to de Villiers, FOUR, everyone in on the off-side and de Villiers eyed that area. Great shot too. Malinga did nothing wrong there, followed the backing away de Villiers, but de Villiers was too good. It was full and outside leg, but de Villiers lofted it over cover after shifting his weight well back. Genius stuff!

18.1 - Malinga to de Villiers, FOUR, a one-handed sweep for four. One-bounce four. Malinga just goes "oooo". de Villiers kneels down and knows that Malinga will target the stumps with a full toss or an yorker, swept behind square

17.5 - Pandya to Kohli, FOUR, another full toss on the stumps, Kohli heaves it wide of Pollard at long-on, to the big man's right and he had no chance of stopping that. This is cutting Mumbai into pieces

17.3 - Pandya to de Villiers, FOUR, more power from de Villiers, more runs. Muscled straight down the ground, Pollard ran around from long-on and dived but could just get a fingertip on it, ran past him and into the boundary

17.1 - Pandya to de Villiers, FOUR, Pandya's cutters isn't going to pose any problems to de Villiers. Full on the stumps, de Villiers clears his front leg and blasts it straight down the ground, nearly cleaned the umpire up there

16.1 - Bumrah to Kohli, FOUR, Kohli gets into the act. Full outside off, driven powerfully along the ground through cover and long-off running to his left can't get there, that scorched across the turf

16.0 - McClenaghan to de Villiers, FOUR, short outside off, and de Villiers doesn't pull, but flat-bats it over mid-off, inside the ring. How on earth does he have the field mapped out in his brain? Only he will know. Moved slightly outside off and hit it. Into the nineties now

15.3 - McClenaghan to de Villiers, FOUR, has it hit the ad-cushions on the full? No. Bounced just before. So four. Short on the stumps, pulled over mid-wicket, into the gap and de Villiers gets to 87

14.4 - Pandya to de Villiers, FOUR, and what does de Villiers do. Go over mid-off. Pandya helped de Villiers there with a full toss, lifted over the fielder. Hat-trick of boundaries and Kohli goes up to de Villiers to pat him on the back

14.3 - Pandya to de Villiers, FOUR, look at that now. de Villiers goes well outside off and deep in his crease, it was bowled wide outside off, still somehow de Villiers gets elevation to clear cover, once he did that it was four all the way

14.2 - Pandya to de Villiers, FOUR, de Villiers is just toying with the bowling now. Full and wide outside off, de Villiers got it wide of cover and sweeper couldn't get there

13.4 - Bumrah to de Villiers, FOUR, Rayudu did all the hard work but gives away four. Slower on the stumps, de Villiers swipes it with fabulous timing and it raced across the turf, Rayudu went to his left at deep mid-wicket, slid and pushed it back but the ball slipped over the ad-cushions

12.5 - Malinga to de Villiers, FOUR, de Villiers knows the field inside out. Kneels down and then sweeps Malinga for four. Full toss on the stumps, de Villiers gets it over mid-wicket, no-one in the deep there and another four to de Villiers

12.0 - McClenaghan to de Villiers, FOUR, poor delivery from McClenaghan and de Villiers doesn't need any special invitation right now. Slower off-cutter outside off, sat up to be hit and de Villiers rocked back to cut hard, gives sweeper no chance

11.5 - McClenaghan to de Villiers, FOUR, de Villiers still gets four. Wide of Pollard at long-on. Fifty for de Villiers too. His mates stand up and applaud from the dugout. Raced down and then smashed the full ball along the ground, Polly had little distance to cover but the ball sped away across the turf

10.4 - Jagadeesha Suchith to de Villiers, FOUR, fabulous from de Villiers. Backs away, then comes back to his original position, takes it on the full and sweeps powerfully to the deep backward square leg fence, no chance for the fielder at deep square leg, de Villiers manipulated Suchith brilliantly there

8.5 - Jagadeesha Suchith to de Villiers, FOUR, that fumble brings de Villiers back on strike and he gets four more. What a brilliant shot that is again from de Villiers, it wasn't all that short but de Villiers went back and lofted it over cover, de Lange this time was a mere spectator

8.3 - Jagadeesha Suchith to de Villiers, FOUR, de Villiers is timing the ball so well. Not good signs for Mumbai. Another flick along the ground and to the left of short fine, Simmons was the fielder, he put in the dive but didn't get there

7.5 - Harbhajan to de Villiers, FOUR, what timing from de Villiers. It was just a push again, off the front foot, beats Bumrah at cover and gave sweeper no chance. How did that go for four? I'm stunned as would millions of people watching

5.5 - Jagadeesha Suchith to de Villiers, FOUR, brilliant from de Villiers. Even the bowler is impressed. Jagadeesha Suchith has his tongue out. It was nothing but a push after he came down the track, Malinga at mid-on didn't dive there and once it went past him it was timed so well that it raced away. Needed the dive

5.4 - Jagadeesha Suchith to de Villiers, FOUR, over cover. de Villiers is looking to back away and play against Jagadeesha Suchith, this was slightly short and that allowed de Villiers to clear the infield. Fine shot

4.4 - Bumrah to Kohli, FOUR, Kohli takes charge. Races down the track and then hits it on the rise, through cover, no-one moved as it raced away

2.2 - McClenaghan to Kohli, FOUR, Malinga has given away four at fine leg. McClenaghan and Rohit aren't happy at all. It was short down leg, Kohli swivel-pulled it to the right of Malinga who overran the ball and let it slip through his hands. A single turns out to be four

2.0 - Malinga to Gayle, FOUR, thick outside edge and it flies over backward point. Gayle saw the slower delivery outside off and threw his bat at it, no-one at third man and once he got it over the infield it was four

19.5 - Pandya to Kohli, SIX, the gifts continue. Ridiculous tactics from Mumbai. They seem to have given up. Another full toss on the stumps, heaved over wide long-on. Hit a long way back into the stands, six more to the total. Rohit grimaces

17.2 - Pandya to de Villiers, SIX, Gayle with just a towel draped across his shoulders, asks the ball to come and hit him with a smile on his face. Low full toss and de Villiers lofted it over long-off. The ball almost went into the BLR dugout

17.0 - Bumrah to Kohli, SIX, these full tosses aren't helping Mumbai one bit. Low full toss and Kohli lofted it over wide long-on, easily done. 25 off that over

16.4 - Bumrah to de Villiers, SIX, 100 for de Villiers. Kohli has de Villiers in a bear hug. That legend - Sammy is on his feet clapping. de Villiers does a jig celebrating, pointing at someone. Maybe at Sammy or Gayle. Not sure. He got to his 100 with a powerful slog across the line, picked the slower delivery from outside off and sent it way back into the deep mid-wicket stands. This has been an outstanding knock. Second T20 League hundred for de Villiers and first for BLR

16.3 - Bumrah to de Villiers, SIX, Allan Donald applauds that from the dugout. Gets outside off and on one knee, low full toss on the stumps, de Villiers sweeps it into the stands at fine leg, that went a long way, got plenty of elevation to deposit that

10.2 - Jagadeesha Suchith to Kohli, SIX, when he hit it, I thought he had holed out, but it goes all the way over long-on. The bat turned as he came down the track to loft it, still had enough to clear Rayudu

9.5 - Harbhajan to Kohli, SIX, Kohli goes over mid-wicket and gets six. Skips out and hoicks the offie way back into the stands. Timed superbly to get the elevation. Got to the pitch and hit it for a biggie

8.0 - Harbhajan to de Villiers, SIX, de Villiers is attacking Harbhajan and gets six. Down the track in a jiffy and then flicks the off-break over mid-wicket, it has the legs to go all the way, kept the fielder interested for a while but it sailed over him

0.3 - McClenaghan to Gayle, SIX, very predictable from McClenaghan and Gayle was waiting for it, short outside off, Gayle fetches the pull and hits it over mid-wicket. That was cracked by Gayle, off the mark in style

3.1 - Malinga to Gayle, out Caught by Simmons!! Simmons shows his mates how to do it. A replay of the catch he took last game. Gayle walks off with a wry smile on his face. It was the slower delivery outside off, width was there but Gayle edged the cut, it was going to the left of short third man and eluding Simmons, but he leaps to his left and gets both hands, hangs on. All the Mumbai fielders go to him. McClenaghan manages a smile as well. Simmons was airborne as he took that. Sensational stuff, not as brilliant as the one he took to dismiss Yuvraj, but still superb. Gayle c Simmons b Malinga 13(12) [4s-1 6s-1]

2.5 - McClenaghan to Kohli, no run, now dropped by Harbhajan at slip. What is going on, Mumbai? McClenaghan again with a cry of anguish. This is hurting him big time, Kohli gave the charge and edged the big drive, it went comfortably to Bhajji at slip who tried to take it reverse cup and put it down, very sloppy by Mumbai. McClenaghan came round the wicket and got the edge, but he has no luck. Will these drops hurt Mumbai, come the end of the day?

2.4 - McClenaghan to Gayle, 1 run, Rohit has dropped Gayle. How costly could that turn out to be? Gayle made room and skied the length ball straight up as he was cramped for room, it went way up and Rohit circled around it at mid-on, got both hands and out it went, Rohit tried to grab the rebound and failed. McClenaghan is down on his knees and almost in tears

19.2 - Pandya to Kohli, 2 runs, has Rohit been hit on the mouth? Or on the chin? Yes he has been. He is down for sometime but gets up and is ok to continue. Worried faces in the crowd. Rohit charged in from mid-wicket to take the catch, it bounced in front of him and hit him on the chin. He didn't get up for 20-25 seconds but then rises. In the meantime the batsmen take two as the throw comes in to the striker's end. Kohli made it back with a dive

15.5 - McClenaghan to Kohli, 1 run, tucks the length ball on the stumps through mid-wicket and gets to his fifty

16.5 - Wiese to Simmons, FOUR, unlucky for the bowler. Wiese bangs this slower ball short, Simmons advances and goes for the pull, gets a top edge and it flies past the keeper

16.1 - Wiese to Simmons, FOUR, fifty for Simmons, but it's come off 43 balls. He needs to up the ante. Short of a length delivery just outside off stump, Simmons cuts and beats the fielder at backward point, who was diving to his left

14.1 - Aravind to Pollard, FOUR, can't lose your length at this stage of the innings. A full ball right in the slot, Pollard lofts it to the right of long-on and begins the over in style

13.0 - Starc to Pollard, FOUR, too short, thank you very much says Pollard and gets four more. Short and angling across, not good enough to trouble the big all-rounder and he nails the pull shot to perfection over mid-wicket

12.2 - Starc to Pollard, FOUR, where is long-off, Virat Kohli? This is ridiculous! Pollard loves to play with a straight bat and he takes full toll of the field. Good length delivery outside off stump, Pollard doesn't try to do anything fancy, just lofts it over mid-off and it rockets for four

10.3 - Harshal Patel to Pollard, FOUR, freebie! Takes pace off the ball, but it was too short, although Pollard was beaten by the lack of pace just a touch, he swivelled and pulled it fine past short fine leg, Aravind runs to his right in the deep but the ball wins the race

10.0 - Aravind to Simmons, FOUR, that's an excellent shot, nothing wrong with the ball, full and perhaps just a little bit of width, Simmons opens the face of the bat and runs it past short third man for a boundary, 17 came from the over

9.3 - Aravind to Pollard, FOUR, another meaty blow from Pollard, on a good length and just outside off, mid-off was inside the ring and Pollard goes over that fielder, turning out to be an expensive over

9.2 - Aravind to Pollard, FOUR, that's nicely played by Pollard, back of a length and on his thighs, he uses the pace of the ball and runs it past short fine for a boundary

6.2 - Wiese to Simmons, FOUR, clever batting from Simmons, this was full and just outside off, he was looking for the yorker, Simmons waits on it, opens the face of the bat at the last moment and runs it past the keeper for a boundary

5.0 - Wiese to Rohit, FOUR, if AB can do it, so can I, says Rohit, goes down on his knees to a full ball and sweeps it behind square on the on-side, no one in the deep and the ball races away to the fence

3.0 - Starc to Parthiv Patel, FOUR, this is excellent cricket from Parthiv, comes down the track, takes the ball on the full and drills it past cover, third boundary of the over. MUM are off and running

2.4 - Starc to Parthiv Patel, FOUR, that's nicely played by Parthiv, fraction too straight from Starc, Parthiv gets inside the line, delays the flick and gets it fine past short fine, the ball races away to the fence

2.2 - Starc to Parthiv Patel, FOUR, that's much better from Parthiv, tad fuller and shaping back in, Parthiv presses forward, presents the full face of the bat and punches it back past the bowler for a boundary

0.4 - Starc to Simmons, FOUR, lovely shot, half-volley on Simmons' pads, he gets inside the line and clips it effortlessly past mid-on, no need to run for those

20.0 - Chahal to McClenaghan, SIX, shuffles in the crease and plays a lovely slog-sweep over deep square leg. BLR win by 39 runs. This is a comprehensive win!

19.4 - Chahal to McClenaghan, SIX, good hit! Tossed up and in the slot, McClenaghan lofts it over long-on, the fielder jumps high but the ball escapes

17.2 - Harshal Patel to Rayudu, SIX, slower delivery on the off stump, Rayudu gets down on one knee and slog-sweeps it, the ball lands on the rope and it's a maximum

16.2 - Wiese to Simmons, SIX, shortish in length, on the leg stump, Simmons takes his front leg out of the way and smashes it flat over long-on. This is a great start to the over for MUM

16.0 - Chahal to Rayudu, SIX, completely mistimed, AB tries his best at long-off but he can only palm it over the rope. Flighted delivery spinning away outside off stump, Rayudu steps out and looks to go big, the bat turns in his hands and goes high towards long-off, AB jumps and tries to take it with one hand but doesn't succeed

15.3 - Chahal to Pandya, SIX, he's continuing from where he left the other day in Chennai. No flight whatsoever on this one from Chahal, Pandya hangs back and lofts it easily over long-on

12.0 - Chahal to Simmons, SIX, clean hit! He didn't go hard at it at all. Just came down the track, got to the pitch of the ball, got under it and lofted it easily straight back over the bowler's head

11.2 - Chahal to Pollard, SIX, in the airrrr, does it have enough legs to go all the way? Yes it has! Pollard is turning it on and the crowd get right behind Pollard. Flighted delivery just outside off stump, Pollard steps out and lofts high into the sky, clears the sightscreen by a distance. This is interesting, Chris Gayle goes to Virat Kohli and has a tip for him. He knows Pollard well!

11.0 - Harshal Patel to Pollard, SIX, oh that's gone into orbit. Mumbai aren't out of this until this man is at the crease. Too short from Harshal Patel, Pollard muscles the pull way back over deep mid-wicket

6.5 - Wiese to Rohit, SIX, cracking shot, the slower ball goes wrong for Wiese, drops it halfway down the pitch, Rohit swivels across and pulls it high and over mid-wicket for a maximum

5.3 - Harshal Patel to Simmons, SIX, Simmons breaks free! This was pitched up and in the zone for Simmons, he steps down the track, hits it with the angle and clears mid-wicket with ease, first maximum of the innings

19.2 - Chahal to Jagadeesha Suchith, out Caught by D Karthik!! Easy catch for the keeper. Flighted delivery just outside off stump, Suchith slogs, mistimes it completely, the ball takes a top edge and goes towards short cover. Karthik calls for the catch and takes it easily. Jagadeesha Suchith c D Karthik b Chahal 4(4)

18.2 - Starc to Harbhajan, out Caught by Kohli!! No calling was needed this time as it went straight to the fielder. Harbhajan looks for a maximum but hits this full ball straight to long-on, where Kohli takes a simple catch. Harbhajan c Kohli b Starc 3(3)

17.3 - Harshal Patel to Rayudu, out Caught by de Villiers!! Oh he made that look so easy did AB de Villiers. Ah! What an athlete. Full delivery just outside off stump, Rayudu steps out and looks to drive inside-out, hits it well but doesn't get the placement right. AB moves to his left, dives and takes a good low catch. Rayudu asks AB if he caught it cleanly and AB showed him the thumbs up. Rayudu c de Villiers b Harshal Patel 14(4) [6s-2]

15.4 - Chahal to Pandya, out Stumped!! Well bowled! Chahal not afraid to toss the ball despite being hit for a six. Pandya comes down the track and looks for a gallery hit, the ball spins past the bat and Karthik effects an easy stumping. Pandya st D Karthik b Chahal 8(4) [6s-1]

14.2 - Aravind to Pollard, out Caught by Starc!! Is that the match for BLR? Massive wicket for the Bangalore boys! They are all charged up. They know the importance of this wicket. Pollard was looking determined to steal the match but he's gone now. Slower delivery just outside off stump, Pollard goes for a big hit over long-on, he was deceived by the slower ball, the ball takes the outside half of the bat and flies towards sweeper cover, where Starc takes a good low catch. That was a difficult grab as it was in the air for a long time but Starc was so cool under it. Pollard c Starc b Aravind 49(24) [4s-6 6s-2]

8.1 - Harshal Patel to Rohit, out Caught by Mandeep!! Massive blow for MUM, they lose their skipper. Excellent piece of bowling from Harshal, he held this one back slightly as Rohit made room for the lofted shot. It's the off-cutter, there was no pace on the ball, Rohit had to reach out for the shot, he loses control over it and ends up lobbing it down the throat of long-on. Rohit c Mandeep b Harshal Patel 15(13) [4s-1 6s-1]

4.0 - Aravind to Simmons, out Parthiv Patel Run Out!! Unlucky for Parthiv Patel, the bat got jammed in front of the return crease and he wasn't able to ground it properly. Excellent work though by Kohli and Karthik. This was short and just outside off, Simmons hopped across and punched it in front of cover-point, calls for a quick single. Parthiv was quick to respond, but the accurate throw finds him short of his ground. Parthiv Patel run out (Kohli/D Karthik) 19(11) [4s-3]

18.1 - Starc to Harbhajan, 2 runs, in the airrrr and put down. Poor calling from Chahal and Mandeep. Full delivery on the off stump, Singh mistimes the lofted drive, Chahal runs back from extra-cover, Mandeep runs in from long-off, both fielders go for the catch, miss the ball and almost collide with each other
