So, that is it from me, Karthik Raj and my co-commentators, Arjun Bhalla and Aryasekhar Chakraborty. Join us for the Eliminator between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad at 6.50 PM tomorrow
Jasprit Bumrah: I am okay with not getting wickets and winning the tournament, I have been given a role so I just want to execute that role. Opening yorker was really important. I decided I will do that early in the game and when it comes off it's always nice. I am always ready when the captain wants me to bowl. I don't focus on the end result. When I have done that it's always gone downhill
Jasprit Bumrah has been named as the 'Man of the Match' for his superb bowling spell
Rohit Sharma : I guess this is the best performance. The way de Kock and SKY took the momentum after I got out early was good to see. Perfect result for us. We never had a target in mind. We are a different team and we play differently. We just wanted to have a good powerplay and then take it from there. We knew we have the power to accelerate at the end. Ishan has been in just great form, so we just wanted him to be really positive after the second time-out. We told that to Krunal as well, just bat positively and put the bowlers under pressure. With such a versatile squad, we can change the batting and bowling order. I've not seen him (Boult). But he seems okay. I don't think it's a big problem. Three day rest and he should be back on the park. Bumrah and Boult have been in solid form. They play for different teams so they have different plans. We as a team have different plans and it's great to see them execute those.
Shreyas Iyer: I don't want to speak negatively about the team, but going forward it's important to come with a strong mindset. It's never too late, and we'll see to it that we come back strongly. I think we were on top when we got two quick wickets, and they were 102-4. We could have capitalized more at that time, and gotten two more wickets - maybe we could've chased around 170, but it's part and parcel of the game. Every night can't be yours. We keep talking about the opportunities that we get and it's important to have a good mindset. It's not easy to be in the bubble and follow the same routine, but the practice we have done over the last few days, I'm really happy with the boys and their preparations. Ravi Ashwin was a positive for us tonight - he plays around with the batsmen's head a lot, really good to have him in the team, and he's quite an asset for us, especially me as a captain. All their batsmen are in great touch and Hardik/Pollard down the order are incredible. You can't control the situation when all the batsmen are in good touch, but we'll look to do better in the next game.
Comments from the players
The duo of Marcus Stoinis and Axar Patel then stitched a 71-run partnership off 44 balls. Stoinis was particularly lethal against Rahul Chahar with the leg-spinner going for 35 runs in two overs. Even though Delhi didn't have much of a chance, Bumrah came back and dismissed with a peach of a delivery in the 16th over. A couple of deliveries later, Bumrah got Sams with a sharp bouncer. At the other end, Axar carried on with some boundaries for a while before being dismissed by Keiron Pollard with a ball to spare in the innings. Trent Boult didn't bowl his last two overs due to a reported groin strain but Mumbai weren't in dire need of his services. However, they will hope that Boult is fine since he has been really valuable with the new ball
So, that is it, Mumbai wrap up the match by a 57-run margin and qualify for the final directly. They had the perfect start as Trent Boult dismissed both Prithvi Shaw and Ajinkya Rahane in the very first over. Immediatley, Jasprit Bumrah made it 0/3 by removing Shikhar Dhawan with a peach of a yorker. Delhi skipper Shreyas Iyer looked positive but he was also sent back by Jasprit Bumrah in the fourth over. Delhi scrawled to 32/4 after the first six overs but Rishabh Pant struggled yet again as Delhi had half the side back in the pavilion for just 41 runs
I a thrilled to bits, my team Mumbai Indians make it to the final yet again, What a team, quite confident that they will be lifting their 5th IPL title next Tuesday

After all the wides by Pollard in the last over, the over finally ends and Mumbai gets into the finals in a one-sided fashion. Pollard had 72 runs to save in the last over and he ends the over by bowling nine deliveries to the Delhi batters where he gave two boundaries and three wides but got the wicket of Axar Patel. 14 runs from the last over and Mumbai wins the first Qualifier by 57 runs.
