Akash Madhwal returned with 4 for 37 as Mumbai Indians dragged back Sunrisers Hyderabad in the back-end to restrict them to 200 for five in their must-win IPL game. From being 168 for 1 in 16 overs, SRH lost three wickets and managed just 32 runs in the last four overs. Opener Mayank Agarwal returned to form with his first fifty of the IPL to give SRH a perfect start after Rohit Sharma opted to bowl.

Agarwal top-scored for SRH with his 46-ball 83 (8x4, 4x6) in a solid 140-run opening partnership with Vivrant Sharma (69 from 47b; 8x4, 4x6). But Madhwal triggered the collapse dismissing him in the 17th over.It was Cameron Green who set the tone for Mumbai with his 100. The five-time champions won the toss and opted to bowl first as they need to win handsomely against laggards SRH and hope the Gujarat Titans beat Royal Challengers Bangalore.
