MI vs KKR IPL 2022 Highlights: MI collapse to 113 all out, lose by 52 runs

Back to back run outs to end the game! Bumrah tries to tap and go for a run but Rinku Singh comes charging in and fires in a direct hit to end the match. Sensational fielding effort today from KKR. MI have lost their last five wickets in just over 3 overs. KKR have recorded a third consecutive win against MI and Bumrah's five-wicket haul ends up on the losing side. 

Pollard dropped by Sheldon Jackson and then run out all off the same delivery. Pollard has an almighty heave against Russell and the ball goes miles up in the air. Jackson calls for it but he has a lot of ground to make and in the end he can't get there. But Chakravarthy and Shreyas are as aware as ever. The former backed up Jackson, collected the ball, and threw it to Shreyas who was in position at the stumps to finish the run out. 

Pollard run out (Chakravarthy/Shreyas Iyer) 15 (16), MI 113/9 in 17.3

Pollard wanted the strike and came running back for the second. The throw goes to the other end and where Kartikeya is nowhere in the frame and MI lose their eighth. 

Another short ball, another wicket for Cummins. Ashwin tries to ramp this and he middles it. Unfortunately for him, there is a third man in position for that shot and he takes a simple catch. Cummins is doing to MI what Bumrah did to KKR. 

Ashwin c Varun b Cummins 0 (2), MI 102/7 in 15 overs

Bouncer from Cummins that Milne has no answer to. He goes for a pull, the ball comes off the helmet after taking a top edge and loops to the keeper.  

Bouncer on middle and it's the short ball that gets Ishan Kishan again. He top edges the pull and Rinku Singh does very well to hold on to it right at the ropes. 

Kishan c Rinku b Cummins 51 (43), MI 100/5 in 14.1 overs

Well that was no easy catch despite the fact that it was coming straight to Shreyas Iyer. Pollard absolutely smashed a pull straight to the KKR batter and the pace on that shot was such that Iyer hardly had any reaction time. He got his hands to the ball though and it just burst through them. 

It has taken 41 balls. It is his third half century of the season and, despite the number of balls it has taken, a welcome one. This is the innings for MI, one feels. 

Pollard decides to go from the beginning! David had been sent in ahead of him and Pollard doesn't wait too long to go for the big shots. He first uncharacteristically danced down the track and then sends the next one into orbit over long on.  

He tries to heave Chakravarthy over the leg side but flies it big time. The ball goes deep into the night sky and Rahane does well to keep his eyes on it all along and take the catch safely. 

David c Rahane b Chakravarthy 13 (9), MI 83/4 in 12.2 overs

Make that a hat-trick of fours to start the innings for David. Another bouncer from Russell and David pulls in front through midwicket for four. He gets to 12 off 3, MI 81/3 in 11 overs.

Tim David gets off the mark in style. Bouncer from Russell that David pulls away and it almost goes for the flattest of sixes. David then punches the next ball past Russell for a second boundary. 

Ramandeep tries to heave a length ball over midwicket. Miscues it completely and the catch is taken at third man. 

Ramandeep Singh c Rana b Russell 12 (16), MI 69/3 in 10.3 overs 

It has been seven innings since he got a half century. He hasn't exactly set the place on fire today but this has been an important innings for MI. The real problem for them is that Ramandeep Singh at the other end is also going at a strike rate of less than 100. 

Another quiet over passes by. It has been 13 balls since the last boundary and these two should be wary about leaving too much to do for the rest of their batting lineup. But then again, that might exactly be the kind of situation that Kieron Pollard could be craving to show that he has still got it. 

MI 58/2 in 9 overs

Conservation of wickets seem to be the priority at the moment. This is a good start for KKR and MI's net run rate has crept up over 9.50 now. 

Kishan drives Chakravarthy through extra cover for his fourth four of the innings. Two more runs off the next ball takes MI to 46/2 in 7 overs. 

Test match length from Russell to cramp up Tilak Varma. He tries to cut it, gets an edge on it and floats to slip. 

Tilak Varma c Rana b Russell 6 (5), MI 32/2 in 5 overs

Tilak Varma slashes at one outside off from Russell and the ball flies over slip and keeper for four. They are slashing at everything and they have gone for streaky boundaries but one wonders how long that luck will hold. 

Shreyas Iyer mixing it up and MI are not having a very good time with their run rate at the moment. They are on 26/1 after four overs, and their run rate of 6.50 is well below the required rate of 8.75. 

Pitched up by Cummins from round the wicket and Kishan just strokes it back past the bowler for four. It has been two overs since Rohit has left and Kishan has faced all of the balls thus far. Tilak Varma at the other end is still on nought of nought. 

Southee offers some width and Kishan slashes hard it. It goes over slip and rolls to the boundary. 

DRS time in the first over itself! KKR review for the caught behind... and UltraEdge shows the ball brushing Rohit's bat. 

MI skipper perishes on just two! He walks back in disbelief. Brilliant catch by keeper Sheldon Jackson. 

MI 2/1

Rohit and Ishan are in the middle. Southee starts proceedings with the ball! Let's begin the chase!

“ It was a good day. I was looking to use the dimensions of the ground. When things are going your way, it's important to stay in the present and not to overdo things. Whenever you help the team, make an impact, that gives me a satisfaction.”

“That's the way I always play my cricket, so happy with my performance. I don't go there with a fixed mindset, I train for all situations and I understand, sometimes I have to bowl at the start, sometimes in the end.”
