5:53 PM IST PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Arshdeep Singh wins the award for his excellent figures of 3/22.

5:44 PM IST Sloppy show costs Mumbai - Despite AM Ghazanfar picking up a couple of wickets in the Powerplay, Mumbai Indians never really looked like defending this total. They were inconsistent with their lines and lengths, leaked too many boundaries, and were sloppy in the field. The biggest moment came when Jasprit Bumrah put down Prabhsimran, a costly miss that hurt them badly. They also seemed to lack a strong presence on the field, with Pandya looking under immense pressure, while Bumrah's wicketless run continues to hamper them. It’s back to the drawing board for MI.

5:43 PM IST Century spark, but missing the final kick - Earlier in the game, Mumbai Indians posted a competitive total, highlighted by a fantastic unbeaten century from Quinton de Kock in his first game of the season, along with a fine half-century from Naman Dhir. The duo made the most of the chances that came their way, stitching together a massive 122-run stand, but the home side couldn’t quite get the finish they were aiming for. Arshdeep Singh looked back to his best for Punjab Kings, picking up 3/22 and also bringing up his 100th IPL wicket in the process, while Marco Jansen and Shashank Singh chipped in with one each. The rest, however, went for runs, though they did manage to pull things back a bit towards the end.
