IPL 2018, RR vs MI: Rajasthan Royals beat Mumbai Indians by 3 wickets

Gowtham has turned this match on its head for Rajasthan Royals. Jasprit Bumrah who led Mumbai Indians back in the match has leaked runs at a very heavy rate. They need 10 off the last over

Mustafizur has a wicket as he removes Klassen. It was a cutter and Klassen just edged that one and gave a catch to Ishan Kishan. He holds on to a good catch behind the stumps

Back to back wickets for Jasprit Bumrah and Mumbai Indians and they are back in the match. This is a brilliant display of captaincy from Rohit Sharma and Rajasthan are in a spot of bother

Hardik Pandya cleans up Ben Stokes for 40 and RR lose three for 110. Pandya bowled a yorker around his legs and cleaned the left-hand batsman. This is surely a huge wicket for Mumbai Indians at a very crucial stage

Rajasthan Royals bring up 100 runs in Jaipur. They have just over 7 overs to chase down that target of 168 runs. The match is evenly poised right now and RR just need to get runs without going for any risky strokes

Ben Stokes scores 10 runs in two deliveries to end the 11th over. He first smacked a six off a slower one to the fine leg boundary and then got a boundary on the last through the covers

We are half way through and Rajasthan Royals are 70/2 in Jaipur. They need to up scoring rate to stay in the match. Ben Stokes who has been silent in the match so far can take the risk and go after Mumbai bowling

So we have the strategic timeout now. Rajasthan Royals need to re-think their plans as they are still on the backfoot in this run-chase. Sanju Samson has the opportunity to get some more runs under his belt

This brings us to the end of Powerplay overs and it has been a good start from Mumbai Indians. They have picked two wickets and have just given away 43 runs in 6 overs. 

McClenaghan picks up an important wicket of Ajinkya Rahane as the skipper departs for 14 and Rajasthan lose their second wicket. It was a good catch from Krunal Pandya at mid-wicket

Sanju Samson had looked a bit off-colour in last couple of matches but the right-hander is looking stable in Jaipur. He has moved to 12 from 7 in no time

Krunal Pandya continues to pick up wickets in this IPL and he has his first of th match. Rahul Tripathi is out for 9 after he gives a catch to Suryakumar Yadav at mid on. RR are 14.1 and this brings Sanju Samson in

Rajasthan Royals begin their 168-run chase in Jaipur and we finally have Rahul Tripathi opening the innings with Ajinkya Rahane. He has showed his class at that position in last year's edition and RR would want him to replicate that for them as well

Rajasthan Royals restricted Mumbai Indians for 167/7 in 20 overs after Archer scalped three wickets in one over. RR now need 168 to win against MI.

Third one goes down in that over and a brilliant display of bowling from Archer. The right-hander bowls a yorker to McClenaghan and disturbs the stumps behind him. Earlier, Hardik Pandya was cleaned up by Archer for four runs. MI are 158/7 after 19 overs

From 129-1 after 14 overs, this has been a stunning turnaround. 158-7 in 19

Krunal Pandya is gone for 6 after being caught in the deep. Mumbai Indians continue to keep losing wickets in Jaipur. It was Knuckleball from Archer and Pandya didn't time it properly. MI lose five now

The fall of wickets in quick succession has resulted in Mumbai Indians losing momentum in Jaipur. The departure of Suryakumar Yadav became the turning point of the scoring rate. They looked steady for a big total till the right-hander was in

A brilliant work in the field from Ajinya Rahane results in Rohit Sharma's wicket as the Mumbai Indians skipper has been run out on the non-striker's end for a golden duck by his Mumbai teammate. MI 136/4

Mumbai Indians lose a couple of wickets in quick succession and this time it's Suryakumar Yadav who has been caught by Jos Buttler for 72. Jaydev Unadkat has his first wicket

Ishan Kishan departs for a brilliant 58. This has been a vital stand and inning for Mumbai Indians. He had got out early against RCB but has shown his ability here. Kieron Pollard is the new man in who will replace Ishan Kishan

Ishan Kishan brings up his second fifty in the Indian Premier League. He has shown great mettle especially after getting out for a golden duck in the previous game. This has been a brilliant partnership between Yadav and Kishan

Another catch goes down in this Indian Premier League. The mis-fields and the drop catches have become regular cite in this edition. Suryakumar Yadav survives as Gowtham drops a chance in the deep

Suryakumar Yadav brings up his half-century with a maximum. He has taken the aerial route and has cleared the fence with ease. This is his third six of the match and Mumbai Indians are looking well set for a good total now

So the timeout has been taken now after 8 overs. MI have scored 64 at the loss of one wicket. Evin Lewis once again failed to produce something good but Ishan Kishan who got hit with the ball in the last match while fielding is looking good and it doesn't really seem that the hit has created any problems for him

Mumbai Indians lost an early wicket in Evin Lewis but Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav have got themselves back in the game. They have completed the powerplay overs and are 43/1 after 6 with Yadav and Kishan at the crease

Suryakumar Yadav has another one and that's gone all the way to leg-side. Another length delivery from Kulkarni and this time towards the leg side, Yadav just directed it towards the boundary. Rahane needs to think something else to keep the scoring rate down now. 

Ishan Kishan dances down the track and sends the cricket ball over the ropes. This is MI's second six of the match and has come against the same bowler. Dhawal Kulkarni is at the receiving end once again. It was a slower delivery on good length and Kishan read it early and timed the shot with perfection.

Rajasthan Royals have the first bowling change now. Jofra Archer has been brought into the attack now and he has replaced Krishnappa Gowtham. Archer is making his IPL debut in this match. Let's see what has he brought with himself

A brilliant strike from Suryakumar Yadav. He timed the shot with perfection and sends the ball over long-on boundary for a maximum. Kulkarni got a wicket in the previous over but the batsman isn't afraid of him and has taken on Kulkarni now

Dhawal Kulkarni strikes in first over and he has the wicket of Evin Lewis who is gone for a golden duck. Lewis played that one on to his stumps and MI are 1/1. It's a big wicket for RR as Evin Lewis has the ability to take on the bowling attack if gets settled in. This is his second consecutive golden duck in IPL 2018

Rajasthan Royals and openers of the Mumbai Indians side are out in the middle. Mumbai would be looking to continue with the momentum they got in the last match. RR need to re-think of what they can do to turn tables for themselves. 

Rajasthan Royals (Playing XI): Ajinkya Rahane(c), Heinrich Klaasen, Sanju Samson, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler(w), Rahul Tripathi, Krishnappa Gowtham, Jofra Archer, Dhawal Kulkarni, Shreyas Gopal, Jaydev Unadkat

Mumbai Indians (Playing XI): Suryakumar Yadav, Evin Lewis, Ishan Kishan(w), Rohit Sharma(c), Krunal Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Hardik Pandya, Mitchell McClenaghan, Mayank Markande, Jasprit Bumrah, Mustafizur Rahman

Mumbai Indians win toss, elect to bat against Rajasthan Royals. Rohit Sharma would be looking to get a good start from his batsmen. They have got the momentum back and would now look to capitalise. For RR, the opening remains a topic of discussion.

Rajasthan Royals are sixth in the IPL table with two wins and three defeats in five matches. The wins coming against Delhi Daredevils, Royals Challengers Bangalore while losing out to Sunrisers Hyderabad, Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings.

Mumbai Indians are one step down in seventh having played four matches which has yielded one win and three defeats. Their only win has come against Royal Challengers Bangalore but lost out to Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Daredevils
