| 19.6 : Chris Jordan to Aiden Markram, SIX! BANG! Aiden Markram ends the innings in style! On a good length and around leg stump, Markram makes a bit of room and gets the front leg out of the way before whacking it a long way over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie. Hyderabad finish with 200/5 on the board! |
| Hyderabad finish on a high but this has been some fightback by the Mumbai bowlers! After Rohit Sharma won the toss and sent Hyderabad into bat, the visitors opted for a new opening pair, their 7th of the season and it certainly worked wonders for them. Vivrant Sharma and Mayank Agarwal were cautious to begin but started to find boundaries once set and stitched a 140-run opening stand. After the departure of both openers, Hyderabad lost their way where they lost wickets in a clump and boundari |
| Vivrant Sharma, the star with the bat for Hyderabad and Akash Madhwal, the star bowler for Mumbai are both down for a quick chat. Vivrant starts by saying that this is the first time he got to bat and he is very happy that his hard work in the nets has paid off. Adds that it was a nice feeling to get a bat in this tournament. Madhwal then says that he was only thinking about execution and Rohit Sharma gave him a lot of confidence. Says that he practices a lot of yorkers in the nets and says that |
| As far as Mumbai are concerned, they did not start well with their seam bowlers failing to get early inroads. Moreover, their spinners were put under the pump by the opening pair of Hyderabad and they failed to deliver as well. With four overs remaining in the innings, it looked like the hosts were on course to chase a target above 200. However, they clawed their way back into the game, conceding only 32 runs and picking 4 wickets in the last four overs. Akash Madhwal was the pick of the bowl |
| ... THE RUN CHASE ... |
| Right then, Hyderabad would have liked a few runs more but this is still a daunting total. On the other hand, Mumbai will be pleased with their bowling effort during the death overs. They need to chase down the total in 11.4 overs in order to overtake Bangalore's net run rate. Can Rohit Sharma and Co. take their side over the line? Let's find out. Back in a bit for the chase... |
| We are back for Mumbai's reply. |

| 0.2 : Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Ishan Kishan, A bit of a yes and no in the middle. Good length around off, Ishan Kishan eases it toward cover-point and looks for one but is sent back late by Rohit Sharma. Luckily for Kishan, the fielder misses the direct hit at the batter's end. |
| 0.3 : Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Ishan Kishan, In the air...safe! This is pitched up around off, Ishan Kishan looks to flick but gets a leading edge. The ball goes high and over the cover region as Kishan picks up a couple of runs. Mumbai are underway! |

| Strategic break! This has been a blistering start from Mumbai with the bat. Ishan Kishan started well but got out soon after and it has been Cameron Green who has been striking the ball sweetly since then. Skipper, Rohit Sharma has got a life and hasn't been able to middle the ball yet. Hyderabad know that this a ground where boundaries will be hit and would want to keep on picking up wickets to curtail the flow of runs. A vital middle phase is coming up next. With that said, Umran Malik com |

| 12.1 : Nitish Kumar Reddy to Cameron Green, Close but not close enough! Nitish Kumar Reddy bowls it on a good length and around off. Cameron Green comes forward and looks to loft it away but is beaten on the outside edge. Heinrich Klaasen who is standing up to the stumps shows quick hands and whips off the bails. The replays though show that Green managed to drag his back leg back inside the crease. |
| 0.0 : Is that out? Cameron Green looks to drive on the up but gets beaten. Heinrich Klaasen takes the bails off and seems confident that Green had dragged his foot outside the crease. However, the replays show that Green has his foot grounded inside the crease. |

| 0.0 : Strategic break! Mumbai are absolutely cruising here in this run chase with both Cameron Green and Rohit Sharma looking in complete control. The hosts would want to finish the game as quickly as possible and significantly boost their net run rate. As far as Hyderabad are concerned, nothing seems to be working for them and the two dropped catches of the Mumbai skipper have made matters worse for them. They desperately need a breakthrough here if they are to make a comeback into this game. |

| MUMBAI HAVE DONE THEIR BIT! What a brilliant chase this has been from Mumbai and especially Cameron Green and they have now done what they needed to do. As things stand, Mumbai will make it through to the playoffs but, it can all change as there is one more game left. For now, Mumbai will be happy and it is the end of a rather underwhelming season for Hyderabad. |
| Needing 201 to win, Mumbai were off to a quick start but Ishan Kishan fell early. Cameron Green walked out at number 3 and simply took the bull by its horns as he went after the bowlers and got maximum purchase as well. Rohit Sharma at the other end kept going hard at the bowling without much success and did get a couple of lives as well but made them count as he brought up a half-century. Sharma did get out but Green continued the onslaught and together with Suryakumar Yadav, the pair took M |
| Hyderabad just never looked like they had the belief to win this game. They let the momentum slip at the backend with the bat and with the ball, the inexperienced lineup showed its fragility. Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowled a fine spell and was economical as well but apart from him no one really stepped up. Mayank Dagar did get a wicket but the pace trio of Umran Malik, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Kartik Tyagi were simply blown away by the Mumbai batters. All in all, it was a below-par showing with the |
| Earlier in the game, Rohit Sharma won the toss and put Hyderabad into bat first which backfired a bit as the opposition made a good start with the bat. The new opening pair of Mayank Agarwal and Vivrant Sharma added 140 runs for the first wicket and laid down the platform for Hyderabad to get something around 210 or 220 on the board. Both Agarwal and Sharma got half-centuries but once the latter fell, it all went downhill for the visitors. Apart from a few runs by Heinrich Klaasen and Aiden |
| Time for some interviews... |
| Cameron Green is the Player of the Match for his match-winning knock of 100 runs from 47 balls. |
| Right then, the final day of league action in the Indian T20 League 2023 and as it stands, Mumbai will be going through to the playoffs. There is however one more game left and the outcome of that one can change Mumbai's fate. Bangalore take on Gujarat on a rain-hit day in Bangalore. For now, the rain has stopped though and the toss is about to take place soon. You can simply switch tabs and enjoy our coverage of that game. Cheers! |
| Suryakumar Yadav is in for a chat. He says that Green deserved that 100 and adds that they did not have not to worry about the net run rate.
