    Rohit looked set to take his side over the victory line, but was caught at mid-wicket by Abhishek Sharma off Eshan Malinga with 14 left to win, leaving it to Suryakumar to close the match with consecutive fours in the following over.

    Hyderabad were fortunate to have reached 143-8, having fallen to 13-4 in the fifth over, with Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar taking two wickets apiece.

    Heinrich Klaasen rebuilt his side's innings, hitting 71 off 44 deliveries in an innings that featured nine fours and two sixes.

    His 99-run partnership with Abhinav Manohar was only ended when he found Tilak Varma off Jasprit Bumrah's penultimate over, before Boult (4-26) returned to take two wickets, including that of Abhinav, at the death.

    Mumbai lost opener Ryan Rickelton (11) early, caught and bowled by Jaydev Unadkat, but Rohit soon put his side on course for their fourth consecutive victory.
