17:44(IST)
Innings End: Credit to Delhi bowlers as they bowled remarkably well in the last five over to stop Mumbai go over the line. However, Suryakumar, Lewis and Ishan scored freely early on and that helped them reach 194/7 in 20 overs.
17:38(IST)
OUT: Hardik Pandya is also dismissed now and he becomes the seventh batsman to head back into the hut. Pandya tried to clear the mid wicket boudnary but is caught in the deep by Shreyas Iyer. Stunning start to the over by Boult who picks a big wicket on the first ball of the over.
17:36(IST)

17:28(IST)
Out: In trying to clear the extra cover boundary Rohit is caught out in the deep and is dismissed for 18. Boult picks his first wicket of the day as Mumbai lose their fifth. Rohit’s barren streak continues as this is his 8th consecutive IPL innings without managing a 30+ score.
17:24(IST)
The onus is on Rohit Sharma and Krunal Pandya to take Mumbai closer or even over to the magical mark of 200. The foundation has been laid and in the next three overs, these two will have to score a few boundaries to take the score past the 200 run mark.
17:16(IST)
Out and Out: Ishan Kishan's maverick innings finally comes to an end as he is clean bowled by Dan Christian. The southpaw once again went for the switch hit and is castled by the pacer. Then on the next ball, Christian castles Pollard to make it two in two.
17:14(IST)
Four and 50: Christian bowls a bit short and Kishan hits it over the cover fielder for a boundary. And with that the 50-run partnership is also up between Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma. These two have started where the openers had left.
17:06(IST)
Four and Four and 150: Rohit joins the party as he hits a boundary on the last ball of the Dan Christian over and then on the first ball of the next Shami over, Kishan cuts the ball in between keeper and gully for a boundary. With that, Mumbai reach 150 in 14.1 overs.
17:00(IST)
Four, Six and Six: Marginally short from Tewatia and Kishan gets onto the back foot and pulls the ball towards the mid-wicket for a boundary. Then on the delivery, he plays the switch hit for a huge six on the off side. Then on the last ball of the over, the southpaw comes down the track and heaves the ball over deep mid wicket to make it 19 runs from the over.
16:55(IST)
Four and Four: Touch of class from Rohit Sharma as he waits for the ball to come to him and then plays the late cut just past the keeper's gloves for his first boundary of the innings. Excellent stuff from the Mumbai skipper as he looks to start from where the openers left it. Then on the second last ball of the over, Ishan Kishan sweep the ball towards square leg for a boundary. Another expensive over from Delhi as Mumbai reach 122/2 in 12 overs.
16:50(IST)
OUT: Rahul Tewatia has pulled the match back for Delhi a bit a he has not gotten rid of both the openers. After dismissing Lewis, Tewatia has not trapped Suryakumar Yadav LBW for 53. Even the DRS couldn't save the Mumbai star. The home side have lost two wickets now.
16:43(IST)
OUT: Lewis' excellent innings finally comes to an end as he is caught out at the long off boundary by Jason Roy off the bowling of Rahul Tewatia. Roy takes a brilliant running catch to break this stunning partnership.
16:42(IST)
SIX and 100: What a stunning shot to bring up the 100 for Mumbai Indians. A straight six down the ground and Mumbai have reached the 100-run mark in just the 9th overs. Excellent stuff from the two openers.
16:30(IST)
SIX: A massive six to finish the over and Evin Lewis is also enjoying himself now in the middle. We are still into the seventh over and MUmbai have already reached closer to the 100 run mark. As for Delhi they need to break this partnership soon.
16:26(IST)
Four and Four and Four: Four ball have been bowled in this over this far by Dan Christian and three deliveries have gone to the boundary ropes on the off-side. As this rate, 200 is looking like a very small target for Mumbai as their openers have been scoring at a rate of 13+
16:25(IST)
Cricketnext’s IPL expert Aakash Chopra: Some incredible hitting. Some ordinary execution of bowling plans. Things going pear-shaped quite rapidly for GG’s DD.
16:23(IST)
Four: Another poor delivery from Shami and Suryakumar dispathces it with a great shot. Low full toss on the pads by Shami and the right hander simply flicks the ball past the mid-wicket fielder for a boundary. 14 runs came from that over as MI reach 66/0 in 5 overs. Astonishing batting!
16:21(IST)
SIX and Four: Mohammed Shami comes onto the attack and Suryakumar straight away tears into him as well. The first ball goes for a huge six ove fine leg ropes and then the next delivery goes for a boundary towards third man fence. The Mumbai openers are simply toying with the bowling a the moment.
16:17(IST)

Excellent first over from Maxwell to start with as he stops the flow of boundaries and doesn't concede any in this particular over.

IPL Live Score, MI vs DD: Gambhir, Roy Look to Start Strong in this Big Chase

PREVIEW: Winless title-holders Mumbai Indians and an equally sluggish Delhi Daredevils will be eager to notch up their first points when they clash in the Indian Premier League at the Wankhede Stadium. While Mumbai went down to Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad by identical one-wicket margins in edge-of-the-seat thrillers, Gautam Gambhir-led Delhi succumbed to Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals in their first two games. The live telecast of the IPL 2018 today’s match between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils will start at 4 PM on April 14th (Saturdays ). Today’s IPL match can be seen live on the Star Sports network and live streaming will be available on hotstar.com. You can also follow our live blog for ball-by-ball updates and analysis on cricketnext.com. Mumbai's batting line-up which boasts of attacking players like skipper Rohit Sharma, West Indians Elvin Lewis, Kieron Pollard and Suryakumar Yadav has failed to fire in unison in the first two games. The hosts would especially hope for an end to the dismal run of skipper Rohit, who fell cheaply in both the games after a largely forgettable tour of South Africa and some modest run in the tri-series in Sri Lanka prior to the commencement of the T20 League. Rohit's form is crucial for Mumbai and with Lewis too not coming good, the opening partnership has been struggling to get going. Mumbai could look at promoting Krunal Pandya up the order if his injured brother Hardik, who did not play in the game against Sunrisers last night, again misses tomorrow's match. On the plus side for MI, Yadav has been among runs and his role will be a key element for the team, especially if the team loses early wickets. In both the games MI lacked big partnerships. Among the bowlers, rookie leg spinner Mayank Markande has been brilliant in the two games. His seven wickets, including the four scalps that he captured in a low-scoring tie against Sunrisers at Hyderabad last night, earned him the purple cap. The Punjab-born wrist spinner has been relying mostly on googlies as his wicket taking balls and his performance would be key to Mumbai's success. Markande, however, has lacked adequate support from the other bowlers pacers Muztifizur Rehman, Jasprit Bumrah, Pradeep Sangwan and Krunal. Muztifizur and Bumrah are some of the best death bowlers in the world, but they went for runs and would be keen to do better. Delhi, on the other hand, also possess top batsmen but they too haven't been able to perform to their potential till now. Expectations will be high from local boy Shreyas Iyer, apart from captain Gambhir, Rishabh Pant, Aussie Glenn Maxwell, Englishman Jason Roy and Kiwi Colin Munro. If they get going they can dismantle any bowling attack and Mumbai's won't be an exception. The visitors could also bring in some new comers in place of laggards. Delhi bowlers, who have leaked runs aplenty, will also need to step up and strike regular blows to contain Mumbai's strong batting line-up. The role of spinners, especially leggie Amit Mishra, will be crucial. The dew factor may not play a significant role as it's an evening game.Teams (from): Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma(c), Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Mustafizur Rahman, Suryakumar Yadav, Krunal Pandya, Ishan Kishan, Rahul Chahar, Evin Lewis, Saurabh Tiwary, Ben Cutting, Pradeep Sangwan, Jean-Paul Duminy, Tajinder Singh, Sharad Lumba, Siddhesh Lad, Aditya Tare, Mayank Markande, Akila Dhananjaya, Anukul Roy, Mohsin Khan, MD Nidheesh, Mitchell McClenaghan.
