That's it for today. BIG WIN for the Mumbai Indians. Be back with coverage of tomorrow's game between the Sunrisers and the Daredevils. See you and good night.
Krunal Pandya said, "Really happy the way I bowled today. Just wanted to vary my pace, mix it up. Generally, it is a high scoring ground, expected the same today but when I bowled a few balls, I knew it will assist me if I vary my pace. It's an honour to be part of this Mumbai team and I feel glad to contribute."
Rohit said, "It was a crunch game for us. We were not thinking about what is going to happen in the table before the game, we focused on our processes, we bowled, fielded and batted well. Bangalore has always been a high scoring ground, we discussed a lot of stuff in our meetings, it was important to keep taking wickets and keep the score low. In the middle of our chase, we had a bit of a hiccup but in the end Pollard and Jos did the job for us. We just want to continue, we have 3 games left, our focus is on the next game."
Kohli said, "We're literally playing knockouts now. Great knock by KL to keep us in the game. The bowlers pulled it back nicely, but it was too much to ask them to restrict them to 150 here. Kudos to MI's bowlers and fielders. We lost a couple of early wickets, dismissals you don't see often, we never really got momentum. Credit to Mumbai for reading the wicket and bowling so well. I asked the boys to give their 120 percent and I'm glad they did. I'm proud of the effort put in by the boys. It's a wonderful situation to be in, having to win all the games, no room for complacency, it's an exciting position. It's going to take a lot of character to get to the playoffs from here, but this is what you play cricket for."
GAME OVER! Mumbai Indians win by 6 wickets. This is their sixth win in 7 against the RCB at the Chinnaswamy. Very impressive win. They won the first important battle, the toss. They were always going to be at an advantage chasing here. Then they came out with the ball and bowled very impressively, restricting RCB to 151. For the RCB, it was a much more impressive bowling display. Sreenath Arvind, Aaron and Chahal were all impressive but Watson, for once, and Jordan, again, failed. Mumbai Indians are an incredibly strong team and will be tough to beat.
18.5 Aaron to Jos Buttler, SIX! MUMBAI WIN by 6 wickets! Low full toss on the stumps, Buttler smashes it high and long over widish long on for a maximum to finish the game in style.
18.3 Aaron to Jos Buttler, 1 run + NO BALL, High full toss, above waist height, pulled away towards deep midwicket, where the man in the deep takes the catch.
17.6 Jordan to Jos Buttler, SIX! Full ball on leg stump, Buttler picks it up from there, as he had backed away outside leg stump and smashed it towards the deep midwicket fence. It hits the boundary cushions on the full.
17.5 Jordan to Jos Buttler, SIX! Misses the yorker, does Jordan, bowls a full toss on the stumps, and Buttler, clears his front leg and smashed that straight back over Jordan's head for six. People were expecting the ramp shot, this wasn't a ramp shot, this was a full blooded heave over the bowler's head, 98 metres, that has gone into orbit.
Pollard tears into Watson, destroys him, looks to have the mental edge here. 18 runs taken and Mumbai can do this at a canter here. 26 off 18. Do RCB have a death bowler? Jordan came in as a specialist! Is this now his moment?
