GT vs MI Highlights, IPL 2022: Mumbai make incredible fightback to beat Gujarat by 5 runs

This brings us to the end of yet another thrilling encounter in IPL 2022. We will return tomorrow for the double-header Saturday. Until then, stay safe and good night!

“It's important to back the skills you have. Sams was under the pump in a couple of games but I know the quality he has. It's important to back those guys. We are trying to maintain the same squad how much ever possible. Daniel Sams was brilliant.”

“9 off 6 is one of those ones.. I just kind of look at it as I have nothing to lose here, probably the odds are in the batters favour, so I thought I will stick to my best ball and lucky enough I was able to keep it inside the wide line. Viewing it from the outside it will probably look like that (gutsy), but for me I was just trying to stick to my best ball, the slower ball is something I go-to and happy it paid off.”

“We'll take 9 runs in the last over on any given day, but the two run-outs didn't help us. In T20 cricket you can't keep losing back-to-back wickets, it pushes you back. It's one of the game where we ended on the losing side.”

The IPL continues to deliver, doesn't it? The bottom-placed Mumbai Indians have made an incredible fightback to beat Gujarat Titans by 5 runs.

MUMBAI INDIANS WIN BY 5 RUNS! Daniel Sams has done the unthinkable! He defends 9 runs off the final over against table-toppers Gujarat Titans as MI register their second win of the season.

Gujarat Titans need a six off the final ball to win the game. Can David Miller do it?

No timing from Rashid Khan as he attempts the pull shot. The ball sails into the night sky Daniel Sams fails to reach it in time. 6 needed off 2

This is going down to the wire! Rahul Tewatia is run out! The batter turns for a second run but fails to reach the striker's end on time. 

Lovely work by Ishan Kishan. 7 needed off 3

A slower yorker wide outside the off-stump! 8 needed off 4

A single off the first ball. 8 needed off 5

A single to end Bumrah's final over as he concedes 11. More importantly for GT, David Miller retains strike.

GT 169/4 in 19 overs. Target 178

A much-needed boundary for Titans and it comes off the bat of Miller! 10 runs needed off 7 balls

2, 0, 1 off the first three balls. Brilliant variations from Bumrah

Brilliant running between the two on the first ball of the over. 2 runs! 18 needed off 11 balls

With Miller and Rahul Tewatia on the crease, this is still GT's game to lose.

The on-field umpire refers it to the third-umpire. 

OUT! Hardik Pandya departs! A defensive shot from Miller which finds a bottom edge and the ball travels to the wicketkeeper. Hardik calls for a single and Ishan Kishan throws a direct hit.

With his bat on the line, the third umpire adjudges Hardik out.

Short from Meredith and Hardik gets on top of the delivery and pulls it brilliantly through deep square leg for a four.

GT 153/3 in 17.1 overs. Target 178

Lucky four for Miller! A thick inside edge and Miller gets a fortunate boundary.

Pandya slams the first ball after the timeout for a four off Jasprit Bumrah. Fuller from Bumrah and Pandya times it to perfection past mid-off.

That's an unfortunate dismissal. Sai Sudharsan departs!

A slower delivery from Pollard and Sudharsan goes hard for a pull shot, but fails to connect. His bottom hand comes off the bat's handle and he fails to control the swing of the bat, hitting his leg-stump.

GT 138/3 in 16 overs. Target 178

Sudharsan charges down the track against Pollard and smashes this delivery outside-off over long-off for a maximum!
