LIVE IPL: Mumbai Indians v/s Delhi Daredevils: Mumbai scramble to 125/6 after late rally

Hi folks

Welcome to the first match of the evening, between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils

Mumbai have won the toss and will bat first

Rohit Sharma and Aditya Tare are out to open the innings

Shahbaz Nadeem to bowl for Delhi

Nadeem to Sharma, 1 run

A few singles and two wides give Mumbai 7 runs off the first over

Mohammad Shami will bowl the second over

OUT! That is run out, Rohit Sharma went for a quick single but Shami darted forward and threw the ball onto the stumps. Mumbai 10/1

Four. Tare pulls Shami over the short leg fielder for four.

MI 14/1 after 2 overs

Corey Anderson is in at No. 3

JP Duminy to bowl

MI 16/1 after 3 overs

Anderson hasn't been able to adjust to the IPL yet. His S/R remains abysmally low given the reason he was brought in.

Wide ball

Wayne Parnell to bowl

OUT! Now Tare is out, he rocked back to a short ball and tried to go over the on side, but found midwicket.

MI 17/2

Ambati Rayudu comes in

Flicked through the on side for four

MI 21/2 after 4 overs

Mumbai are content with scoring in ones and twos at the moment, apart from the odd rush of blood.

Four. Boundary off the last ball means Mumbai get 10 off the over

Mumbai 31/2 after 5 overs

Mohammad Shami comes back

Now Anderson's starting to get into the groove. Thumping pull for four through the midwicket region.

MI 37/2 after 6 overs. Powerplay over.

Jaydev Unadkat comes in after the powerplay

Corey walks at him and pushes the delivery towards mid off

OUT! Long hop gets thumped straight to deep midwicket, the shot was on but the placement was a mess.

That ball didn't deserve a wicket

MI 39/3 

Time for the time out

Michael Hussey comes in at No 5. This could be a much better position for Hussey.

MI 41/3 after 7 overs

Duminy comes back

Four dot balls to begin the over

Eased to long off for one

MI 42/3 after 8 overs

Four singles from the first 4 balls of the over

OUT! Rayudu has picked out long on to a flighted delivery

Mumbai's batsmen are in terrible form...they just cannot find the gaps.

Keiron Pollard is in, way too early for Mumbai

MI 49/4 after 10 overs

Nadeem gives away just 2 runs from the next over

MI 51/4 after 11 overs

Five balls of the 12th over have fetched one run. MI can't get the ball off the turf.

Wide. That adds one more run to the tally

One run from Hussey to end the over

MI 54/4 after 12 overs

Laxmi Shukla comes in to bowl

Single off the first ball

Now Pollard walks down and tries to heave it over the leg side. The ball hit his back pad and there was a huge appeal, but it was turned down but the umpire

Another tangle as Pollard almost falls over while trying to hit that through midwicket. Hit on the pads again, and it looked adjacent but the ump doesn't agree

Now Pollard goes straight down the ground, Shukla tries to catch it but it was hit too hard and sped to the boundary

MI 59/4 after 13 overs

Another strategic timeout

Hussey steers Unadkat behind point for one

Dabbed towards point for a quick single

Clipped to deep midwicket for one. Six runs per over will not help them.

Four runs off the first four balls

Bowled! What a delivery! Slow yorker on middle and leg, Hussey jams his bat down at the last moment but can't block it and is bowled

MI 63/5 after 14 overs

Chidambaram Gautam comes in to bat

Another 6-run over

MI 69/5 after 15 overs

MI have hit just 5 boundaries in this innings

Now Gautam gets into a tangle. There is something very wrong with the defending champions

Short ball gets cut over the cover fielder for two

SIX! Finally Pollard goes big. He got under it and it sailed over long on

MI 80/5 after 16 overs

Pollard biffs Unadkat to deep midwicket for one

Down the track and Gautam hits over extra cover for four

Gautam now reverse sweeps for four

MI 94/5 after 17 overs

MI 100/5 after 18 overs

Mumbai 100/5 after 18 overs

OUT! Gautam is run out. He lost his bat while heaving the ball to deep midwicket, and was called for two anyway. He got run out.

Four. Pollard biffs a low full toss from Shami for four

Six. That was massive. Over long on, that should have been 15 runs, it went out of the stadium

MI 113/6 after 19 overs

Ball 1, big swing and a miss from Harbhajan

Four. Now he smashes him for four

HUGE HIT from Harbhajan, that sailed for six over the on side

1 run off a slow, low full toss.
