RCB vs MI, 38th match at Mumbai, , May 01 2017 - Match Result

7.54pm That's it tonight. Thanks for joining us, and make sure you catch the other game of the double-header today. It starts in six minutes. Good night.

Rohit:Got tight in the end but we always knew the wicket was good and we could get to the last over and finish it off. It was a clinical performance. I know we won in the last over, but I'll take that win. Very important in this format to keep taking wickets and we've been doing it consistently so far. One good thing is that we haven't been complacent. We want to finish games in a clinical manner and we did it today. Personally, it felt good to spend time in the middle. I picked my areas and backed myself to hit in those areas. You get value for your shots at Wankhede and I just wanted to find the gaps. We want to be ruthless in our approach and finish on top of the table. The tournament doesn't end here. We have to stick together and play as a team.

Rohit Sharma is the Man of the Match.

From Aizawl's big victory in the I-League to Joshna Chinappa's historic gold - It was a week of several triumphs in Indian sport. Read more on espn.in

zorrohere: "@cricWatch That's how MI has always played, first year of IPL they lost many matches on last ball. MI have tendency to lose way when they are marching to easy victory. As MI fans we are used to see and expect them pull off wins from tough situations. It is very rare to see MI dominate and win comfortably by huge margin."

Barath : "Yet again, Hardik has remained Not out in a successful MI chase. This would be good learning curve for him before the champions trophy. Looks like, MSD will have a finishing partner :) . "

mr.shubhamdhama: "So...MI becomes the first team to qualify for playoffs this season??" --- Yes, Mumbai is through. Eight wins usually do it.

cricWatch: "MI matches have been the most thrilling this year. Another way of putting this is that, since they have chased most of their matches, their final assault has usually started too late. They are starting really well, but loosing too many wickets in the 7-14 overs. Rohit needs to address this before the playoffs."

7.37pm A comfortable win in the end for the home team. It appeared like RCB might have pulled things back, but it was really Mumbai utilizing their resources and pacing their innings. Rohit in particular, did it nicely, after those two quick wickets of Buttler and Rana. Even the math isn't good for RCB anymore. A feeble finish for them. They are, for all practical purposes, out of the running.

Mid-off is in and there's a short midwicket

Shailesh: "Choudhary's wide could well be the game-changer here."

Aravind from around the wicket

He didn't close his first over off after conceding 2 off 5. Once more?
