11:18 PM: WICKET! MI - 160/9 after 19.4 overs. Umesh Yadav, you beauty! It is all about the experience in the death overs, they say.

11:06 PM: WICKET! MI - 148/6 after 18.2 overs. Oh, oh... the set batter Tilak throws his wicket away! It is a six and a wicket for Tilak Varma.

10:43 PM: It should be Mumbai's game to lose, from here. The visitors are 126/3 after 15 overs, and need just over eight runs per over at the death. Hardik Pandya could come to haunt his former team, and Mumbai look in charge to break the decade-old jinx. Dewald Brevis  (46* off 37) is really playing a composed innings in Ahmedabad. What a start to the season for the youngster!

10:31 PM: WICKET! MI - 107/3 after 12.1 overs. Rohit Sharma departs! The former skipper is gone after a well-made 43. In what was looking like Rohit's night, is cut-short by Sai Kishore at the brink.

10:02 PM: Mumbai Indians make a fighting comeback after losing two quick wickets. The visitors are 52/2 at the end of the batting powerplay.
