Manan Sharma gets rid of Aditya Tare

Finally, Delhi break through. An arm ball from Manan, it is angled in, Tare goes back to cut, misses the ball and is pinned on the pads. He has played a defiant innings, though!

15:32 hrs IST

Gambhir juggling around for options

The Delhi captain wants wickets, and he is looking at different options to get him a breakthrough. For Mumbai, it is all about sticking together

15:08 hrs IST

Mumbai in control

Aditya Tare and Siddesh Lad, two men with experience and pedigree have soaked up all the pressure and they begun to play their strokes. Lucky break too, apparently Bhati appealed for a run out. He believed the ball had touched his shoes before dislodging the stumps, but the third umpire says not out after a million replays

14:18 hrs IST

Lad, Tare trying to stitch a partnership together

After that frenetic start, Aditya Tare and Siddesh Lad have tried to counter-attack. Gambhir has set very attacking fields so this has allowed boundaries to trickle in. Mumbai look settled, as of now!

13:56 hrs IST

Finally, Khejroliya strikes

It was a very uneasy stay at the crease for Shreyas Iyer. He kept wafting at balls outside the off stump, kept missing, kept edging. Finally, he edges one and has been pouched

13:51 hrs IST

Another one bites the dust, but Saini has overstepped

Well, this is quite shambolic from Mumbai, to be honest. The batsmen keep coming in, they keep playing extravagant strokes and they keep departing. Well, Saini has overstepped there so Siddesh Lad can stay. Mumbai need to calm down here

13:42 hrs IST

Make that 3

Navdeep Saini is slicing through this Mumbai batting order. Pace, bounce, accuracy. Mumbai are three down and they have to battle now.

The ball was not too short and yet, Suryakumar wanted to cut, he edged it and Nitish Rana takes it at second slip

13:37 hrs IST

Rahane pinned infront

Good bowling from Navdeep Saini, he gets the ball to deck back in after pitching and pins Rahane right in front of the stumps. Delhi have made a roaring start

13:28 hrs IST

Saini has been brilliant

One of the most promising fast bowlers in India at the moment, Navdeep Saini has been impressive in this brief spell so far. He was drafted into India’s Test squad to take on Afghanistan earlier this year

13:17 hrs IST

4..4..OUT

A beauty from Navdeep Saini and Shaw has lost his off stump. A frenetic start to the chase. Boundaries in the first 2 balls and then Shaw has been castled

12:42 hrs IST

It’s all over for Delhi

Dominant bowling attack, and relentless pressure has an effect on Delhi as they never got going and now have been sent packing for 177.

12:16 hrs IST

Huge six from Bhati

Royston Dias bowls a bit short and Bhati picks the ball off his waist and hits the ball over the mid-wicket boundary for a huge six. Delhi need more of these to get to a decent total here.

12:15 hrs IST

Delhi need quick runs

Suboth Bhati and Navdeep Saini are toiling hard in the middle and they will look to add as many runs as possible in these final few overs. They will look to power Delhi as closer to the 200-run mark to give their bowlers any chance of defending the total against a strong Mumbai batting line-up.

12:02 hrs IST

Delhi are 7 down

Himmat made room, wanted to hit that ball from Tushar over mid off, missed it, the ball took the edge and Tare took the catch

11:55 hrs IST

Negi is forced to retire hurt

Unfortunate for Delhi and Pawan Negi, as he was hit on the hand and the blow has forced him to leave the field. He has dipped his hand in ice at the moment, but there is pain!

11:37 hrs IST

Negi comes out all positive

The hero of the previous match, Pawan Negi has come out and has taken the left-arm spinner Mulani to the cleaners. He wants to play his strokes, which could well be good option to transfer some pressure back on Mumbai

10:54 hrs IST

Spoke too soon, he has been dismissed

Good ball from Mulani, pitching the ball on a length, drawing Shorey forward and then getting the ball to jag away. Tare whips the bails off even as Shorey’s foot is on the line. This is a huge jolt for Delhi

10:48 hrs IST

Shorey holds the key

The right-hander has faced more than 60 balls and is set. He has to carry on and bat deep into the innings if Delhi are to post a competitive total on the board

10:30 hrs IST

4 down now

Not a very smart stroke from Nitish Rana, there was a man positioned at deep square leg and yet, he went for the pull. Not controlled at all and he has picked out the man. Just when Delhi trying to stage a comeback, they snap again!

10:15 hrs IST

Delhi’s chance to hit back

Shorey and Rana have been calculated in the strokes they are playing and things are looking much easier now. This should be Delhi’s chance to hit back

9:56 hrs IST

Few strokes being played

The first change has been made and this has allowed some breathing space for Nitish Rana and Dhruv Shorey who are now looking to play few strokes

9:42 hrs IST

Rana, Shorey watchful

Both batsmen are looking to soak in the pressure and see off this new ball spell. The sun is out, so it could get easier to bat on later in the day

9:29 hrs IST

Shocking shot, Manan dismissed

The ball is moving around and Manan Sharma wants to plant the front foot and drive it on the up through covers. Ball takes the edge and finds the keeper. Delhi on the mat!

9:23 hrs IST

Unmukt Chand departs

Well, the ball from Dhawal was short and wide, Chand cuts, but has not control and finds the man at backward point perfectly. Delhi in some early strife in the final

9:19 hrs IST

Brilliant start by Mumbai

The pitch has assistance and the new ball bowlers, Dhawal Kulkarni and Tushar Deshpande are creating few problems here. Tricky phase for Delhi!

9:00 hrs IST

Umnukt takes strike

The captain has walked out along with Unmukt Chand. Dhawal Kulkarni is with the new ball. The pitch has a green tinge and the ball should move around. Fun times, let’s go!

9:07 hrs IST

Gambhir departs early

Early jolt for Delhi. Tushar Deshpande bowls one wide, Gambhir slashes at it, the ball takes the outside edge and flies off to third man where Prithvi Shaw takes the catch
