Daredevils break their nine-match winless streak at home. They end the Kotla drought. Tahir is relieved. Duminy looks pleased. Looks like this was slowy in pace outside off, Malinga hacks and does not connect

That is that for tonight. Many thanks for joining us. Do come back tomorrow too. Until then, this is Deivarayan Muthu and Gopi Rangarajan fading away.
Shreyas Iyer, Man of the Match: The senior players have been backing the juniors. There is no pressure at all. I take my time, knock a few balls around and then attack the bowlers. This opening slot is helping me a lot.
JP Duminy: It is quite a small ground. The wicket was quite good to bat on. We still needed to bowl well. The bowlers came out with an aggressive mindset. We still have two home games coming up. Hopefully, we can make it three out of three.
Imran Tahir, Purple Cap holder: We just played as a team. It is a honour to wear this cap.
Gary Kirsten: We put both components of our game together. We had a tough time last year. I learnt a lot from last year. We did not have much depth in our bowling last year. In our recruitment this year we wanted to have good spinners. Unfortunately, we have lost Shami to injury.
Rohit Sharma: I think they played very well to post a total like that. We have to give credit to Daredevils. We did not take wickets in the middle. The same batting line-up scored 200 in the last game. We wanted to have the same batting line-up. We should have built more partnerships. Lendl Simmons and Parthiv Patel got us to a good start but we could not capitalise. We will go back to Mumbai and get ready for Sunrisers.
11:30pm: After putting up a strong total, the Daredevils chipped away at the wickets to rock Mumbai's chase. Parthiv Patel and Lendl Simmons got Mumbai off to a brisk start but the middle order floundered. Tahir was impressive with his googlies and skiddy balls. Mishra combined well with Tahir to hike the required rate. If the bowling was tight, then the fielding was electrifying, though the scorecard won't tell that story. Eventually, Mumbai came up short by 37 runs.

Angelo Mathews to Harbhajan, OUT
Add another super catch to the list! The sub fielder in action now. Mathews digs it in very short. Harbhajan aims for a pull. Hit high up on the sticker of the bat. Jayant Yadav rushes in from deep midwicket, dives forward and takes it

shortish and on middle, Malinga was tucked up for room. He took his eyes off the ball. Yet he manages to pull it over a leaping midwicket

Bhajji has smoked the pants off it. I'm afraid its too late, though. Banged in short on middle, Bhaji sits back, waits on it and swings it over deep midwicket
