Earlier in the match, Lucknow were off to a horror start as they lost three wickets very early on but that did not really stop them to get an above-par score on this wicket. Before the match, they would've taken 160, although Marcus Stoinis powered them to 177 runs. Mumbai need to sort out their bowling at the death overs. It hasn't been consistent for them over the course of this season, and once again it has put a huge dent on their momentum at the fag end of the season.

Lucknow needed a good start with the ball, but it did not go as per plan. The hosts were put on the back foot instantly, with the Mumbai openers scoring for fun on this sluggish wicket. That's when Ravi Bishnoi worked his magic and sent both the openers back into the hut. This was the turning point of this match, as, after this, the Lucknow bowlers executed their plans to perfection. Yash Thakur picked up a brace as well and then it was Mohsin Khan who stole the limelight with his exceptional effort in the final over.

Mumbai were off to a flying start with the bat in hand. Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan were scoring runs for fun on this slow track. These two certainly set a solid platform, although the middle order could not come out all guns blazing and struggled in the second half of their chase. Mumbai were cruising at 103/2 at 11.1 and it looked like they had the game in the bag, but the Mumbai batting performance was a bit lacklustre in the final 9 overs. Tim David tried his best to get them over the line, but could not get the job done for his side.

A brilliant win for Lucknow and all the home fans have a new star to praise, oh yes, it is Mohsin Khan. The pace bowler defended 10 runs successfully in the final over to hand his side two crucial points at the business end of the tournament. Mumbai were the favourite with the way they started this chase, although the visitors lost their mojo once the opening pair was taken apart.

Mohsin Khan has done it for Lucknow! Slower and fuller outside off, Tim David has a heave across the line without much timing. Gets it from the inner half of the bat to deep square leg and attempts for the second run. Pooran hits the stumps at the batter's end but the replays show that Tim David was just in. Lucknow win by 5 runs!

That should do it for Lucknow! Mohsin holds his line and length and bowls it full and outside off, Cameron Green can only knock this one down to long off for a single. The bowler has his arms up in celebration. One more legal ball to deliver and Lucknow will grab crucial two points.

Executes the yorker to perfection and goes outside off, Cameron Green looks to squeeze this one out on the off side but misses.

Goes full and going away, outside off, Tim David opens himself up and carves it to deep cover for a single. Lucknow wouldn't mind these singles. Mumbai need 9 runs from 3 balls.

Keeps it on a shortish length, angling across, outside off, Cameron Green muscles this one to deep mid-wicket and brings Tim David back on strike with a single.

Starts well does Mohsin Khan! Bowls it on a hard length, on middle, Cameron Green gets cramped for room as he goes for the pull. Mistimes his shot back to the bowler.

Mumbai need 11 runs off the final over. It will be Mohsin Khan who get the ball in hand now. He has gone for 21 runs in his two overs. Will he be able to defend 10 runs this time around?
