IPL 2020, MI vs SRH Live Score: Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad.IPL 2020, MI vs SRH Live Cricket Score Online Updates: Mumbai Indians (MI) have opted to bat first against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the first of two IPL 2020 encounters on Sunday at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
Both MI and SRH will be heading into the match on the back of two wins, against KXIP and CSK respectively. MI will have their nose ahead as they would hope to utilise the shorter boundary in Sharjah through big-hitters like Kieron Pollard and Hardik Pandya. To add to SRH’s worry, Bhuvneshwar Kumar misses out after picking up an injury on Friday.
CSK and KXIP will meet each other in the second IPL 2020 clash on Sunday.
Rahul Chahar comes into the attack with an economy of 6.93, but it doesn't exactly go to plan. After Pandey (29*) murdered his spin for a six, Warner (27*) gets on in the act and smashes another straight to the roof. 16 runs off the over. SRH: 86/1 (9 overs)
All of Krunal Pandya's hard work with the ball in the last over has been undone by his brother Hardik now! Pandey's upper-cut was high and heading straight to Hardik but he drops it and lets it go for a four. 11 runs off Pollard's over. SRH: 70/1 (8 overs)
Despite the loss of Bairstow, Hyderabad maintain their momentum through Manish Pandey who hit two fours in the same over. Even their captain Warner found his feet brilliantly against Bumrah, hitting him for two consecutive boundaries to the off-side with excellent timing. Both Warner (15*) and Pandey (13*) now have to build on their innings for the two points. SRH: 56/1 (6 overs)
Mumbai missed out on their first wicket in the last over when Warner's shot dropped in a no man's land, but the breakthrough's here! Bairstow (25) misjudged Boult's slower bouncer and his shot lands in the hands of Pandya near the ropes. SRH: 34/1 (4.1 overs)
After Bairstow (24*) continued his onslaught in Pattinson's over hitting two boundaries, he took on Krunal Pandya. Four balls, no boundaries, but fifth? Short ball and pulled high and over the boundary for a huge six. 10 runs off the over. SRH: 30/0 (3 overs)
David Warner and Jonny Bairstow are at the crease. Trent Boult will open the attack and Bairstow makes contact with a half-volley and deposits it over the long-off for a maximum! That's the kind of start Hyderabad need. SRH: 8/0 (1 over)
21 runs off the last over from Kaul and Mumbai Indians finish at 208/5 after 20 overs. Krunal Pandya 20(4) and Kieron Pollard 25(13) | Siddarth Kaul: 4-0-64-2 | Will #SRH chase down 209?
Appeal for LBW against Pandya. Review taken by SRH but the impact was marginally outside leg. MI- 174/4 after 18 overs. The next over begins with a six! Natarajan misses his length and Pollard doesn't miss that. MI- 187/4 after 19 overs.
Pandey with a full-length dive at long-on and Ishan Kishan is gone for 31 (23). It was a length ball and he flat-batted it to the right of long-on where Manish threw himself at the ball to complete a good effort. MI- 147/4 after 15 ovs
Warner has parried one over the ropes. Will it prove costly for SRH? Was a brilliant effort, he was on the move, leapt as high as he could, but managed to only parry it over the ropes - length ball outside off and Hardik pumped it high and over long-on. MI- 142/3
Hyderabad's solitary hope, the man from Afghanistan does the trick here. What a breakthrough! The first ball of the over, miscue from de Kock and straight into the hands of Rashid. The batsman departs on 67. Next up, Hardik Pandya. MI: 126/3 (13.1 overs)
Before his two overs today, Kane Williamson had previously bowled in the IPL just once in 2016 when he bowled one over. So far, he has gone for 24 runs. Siddarth Kaul (14.33) and Abdul Samad (13.50) still have a worse economy than the Kiwi opener though.
84 metres, nimble footwork and a gigantic six -- de Kock (54*) brings up his first fifty of the season in just 32 balls hitting three fours and three sixes. Williamson then gets clobbered by Kishan (22*) for another six in his over. 17 runs off it. MI: 111/2 (12 overs)
On paper, SRH would be happy to have de Kock (45*) and Kishan (10*) negating most of the deliveries, considering the form Pollard and Pandya are in. But still, the South African is slaying every bowler right now, helping hit Samad for 16 runs in his over with a six and a four... and then maintains the momentum against Kane Williamson. SRH need to be economical. MI: 90/2 (10 overs)
After de Kock (25*) had a bit of help from Lady Luck in the previous over of Abdul Samad, his partner Ishan Kishan (7*) gets it going with a brilliant sweep to the boundary. Mumbai deal in singles and inflict eight runs to Rashid Khan. MI: 67/2 (8 overs)
All of Natarajan's hard work undone by the first ball of Kaul's over as his full toss is sent straight to the boundary by SKY. Kaul continues his torrid time as he concedes his sixth four in his tenth ball, but he redeems himself with an important wicket of the dangerous Suryakumar Yadav (27). He pitches it to the leg side and SKY helps it reach Natarajan's hands. MI: 48/2 (6 overs)
de Kock joins back the party that he started with a well-timed straight drive to the ropes off Natarajan's first ball of the over. The Tamil Nadu seamer adjusts his line and length well to restrict the batsman to just two more runs in the over. MI: 38/1 (5 overs)
Sandeep comes back into the attack and initially does well against de Kock (8*). But as soon as SKY (17*) comes back on strike, he just smashes the pacer down the leg side for a four. Mumbai have bounced back well after Rohit's dismissal. MI: 32/1 (4 overs)
Siddarth Kaul comes in for the third over and de Kock instantly punishes him for his wayward ball down the leg side with a four. Two balls later, SKY opens his account with three consecutive boundaries. A dot to end the over. 18 runs off it. MI: 25/1 (3 overs)
