MI vs SRH, 51st Match at Mumbai, IPL, May 02 2019 - Match Result
Match tied (MI won the one-over eliminator)
Mohammad Nabi and Manish Pandey's 49-run partnership is SRH's highest for the 6th wicket in IPL, breaking the record of 47 between Naman Ojha and S Dhawan
Rashid Khan has broken the record for most ducks (15) in IPL, going past Harbhajan's 13
That's all from our side for this game. And if you missed any of the action, you can catch it here with our experts:
Bumrah: Sometimes the mind can get too negative but I keep to maintain clarity, try to keep it as simple as possible. There is always pressure but you don't try to think about the pressure. I focus on one ball at a time. In the end, it's your own decision and that's the best way to go. Backing myself has always helped me.
Bumrah is the Man of the Match.
Rohit: We are rewarded for some real hard work we have put in throughout the tournament. We played consistent cricket and have the results for it. We were very clear in the mind that we wanted to bat first and put runs on the board. Runs on the board is always nice, that's what I feel and that's what the team believed. We knew if we get early wickets, we can put some pressure on them. But Manish batted really well. Eight overs by the spinners were really crucial. Bumrah has been brilliant for us. He keeps improving and he is hungry for more. He is a lead bowler for us and he held the nerve during those two overs and the Super Over as well. Quinny has been really good for us but we need help from the other batters. Confidence is there but we need to understand what the par scores are at different venues.
12.20pm Time for the presentation ceremony.
Lakshman Kumar: "So Mumbai wins the toss, elects to bat first but ends up winning the match chasing a total..!! "
Krunal: Quite happy with the result. It feels good when the team wins and you contribute. It doesn't make any difference whether you bat first or second here. But we knew we had to bowl well. Powerplay didn't go well for us but Bumrah's two wickets were crucial. When I was bowling I was trying to vary the pace. [On Rohit for the Super over] It was quite evident that Hardik and Pollard for going for the Super Over, so there was no debate over there (laughs).
Williamson: A fantastic effort to get so close from Manish and the lower order. It was a pretty good first half but we couldn't get over the line. Rashid is world class and we thought he was our man. When it gets down to the last ball, it's a shame. But there is a game left.

11.45pm With 41 needed from 18 balls and Bumrah having one over left, it looked like Mumbai had the game in their pocket. And when Nabi got out, in the last over, Sunrisers needed nine from the last two balls. Pandey managed a couple off the penultimate delivery before smashing the next for a six to level the game. Don't forget if Mumbai win the Super Over, they will be through for the playoffs. If Sunrisers win here, they will be all but through and that will also bring an end to Rajasthan Royals' hopes of making it to top four.
