Jasprit Bumrah to Mustafizur RahmanOUT! BOWLED! Neck and crop. Bumrah finishes things off in style. Mustafizur Rahman backs away to the leg side and exposes all his three stumps. Too easy for Boom Boom. He targets the stumps like a hunter and shoots his arrow. Bang. Yorker at the base of the stumps and the sticks are shattered. Delhi Capitals are bowled out for 121 and MUMBAI INDIANS WIN BY 59 RUNSQUALIFYING FOR THE PLAYOFFS OF IPL 2025!

Karn Sharma to Kuldeep YadavOUT! CAUGHT! And Karn does manage to improve his figures. Flights this one up in the air and Kuldeep Yadav is enticed to come down the track again. Is nowhere near the pitch of the ball and ends up skying this miles in the air. Substitute Raj Angad Bawa covers good ground from the long on ropes and charges in to take the catch in between the mid on and long on regions. Kuldeep departs for 7 (8) and Delhi Capitals have slipped from 103/5 to 120/9. Equation - 61 from 12.

He pushed the batter back with a bouncer on the previous ball and then smartly slipped in a slower ball keeping the length much fuller. Tiwari plays from the crease and misses it completely getting his stumps castled. That's 100 wickets for Bumrah in the death overs (16-20) of the IPL alone! Tremendous bowler.

Once again keeper Ryan Rickelton shows excellent guile to collect and whip the bails off in a flash and this timethere is no need for the third umpire.

Jasprit Bumrah to Tristan StubbsOUT! LBW! Stubbs has reviewed but that looks dead. And that is confirmed by technology as well. Full and straight Tristan Stubbs does the cardinal sin of playing across the line and doubles it up by missing the ball. He is pinned right in front of the stumps and the umpire barely takes a while to raise his finger. Stubbs understandably takes the review but UltraEdge detects nothing when the ball is near the bat. UltraEdge squashes any further hope of saving the review or the batter as the ball is projected to be crashing into leg stump. Review gonebatter gone. Stubbs departs for 2 (4) and Delhi Capitals are 65/5 after 9.2 overs. Equation - 116 from 64.

Will Jacks to Abishek PorelOUT! STUMPED! These are shades of the 2020 IPL final. DC were 22/3 batting first in that game in Dubai. Here they are 27/3. Though this decision looked a bit debatable to be honest. No complaints about the bowling. Beautifully flighted outside off drawing the batter forward. Abishek Porel lunged to defend but the ball landed and spun past the outside edge. The keeper Ryan Rickelton collected the ball and quickly whipped off the bails appealing for stumping joyously. The decision was referred upstairs and the replays seemed to indicate that the foot had got up in the air but had also got back down in time before the bails were dislodged. However the third umpire checked a few replays before eventually ruling it in favour of the fielding side. Porel walks off shaking his headas he too is not happy with that decision. But he has to depart for 6 (9) and Delhi Capitals are sinking at 27/3 after 4.2 overs. Equation - 154 from 94.

Right. 4 teams confirmed for the playoffs. But 7 matches still left for the league stage! Are those all dead rubbers? Definitely not. The top 4 teams are confirmed but the order is not confirmed yet. Any of the current top 3 - Gujarat, Bengaluru and Punjab can finish in the top 2 and with some luck, Mumbai could also find themselves in a race for the top 2, if they win their final league game as well and end with 18 points. Thursday, 22nd May, 2025, sees a clash between Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants in Ahmedabad. The table toppers will look to extend their lead at the top. The first ball will be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (1400 GMT) but our buildup will begin well in advance. It is now raining torrentially in Mumbai and we thank the rain gods for patiently waiting till this game got over! Do tune in early from a drier Ahmedabad for all the action from the GT-LSG game. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
Mustafizur Rahman is the last batter, replacing Kuldeep Yadav. Jasprit Bumrah is back on as well. 3-0-11-2 so far.
At 6.7, Bumrah has the best economy in IPL 2025 (Min. 30 overs bowled). That was before this game. In this one, his economy reads under 4. Trent Boult to bowl out. 3-0-24-1 so far.
STRATEGIC TIMEOUT. A totally one-sided game. DC just waiting for this game to end. MI have been just too strong for them and the Capitals have just not found any batting support in this game. Unfortunately for them, in a critical game, the in-form Rahul and Stubbs have missed out and the batting order cuts a sorry picture. It is just about playing for pride now and whether Delhi can play out their 20 overs and try and get to 130-140, just to make the defeat margin look less of a drubbing. Kuldeep Yadav comes out to bat at number 10, replacing Madhav Tiwari.
Dushmantha Chameera walks in next at number 9, replacing Ashutosh Sharma.
Madhav Tiwari walks in next at number 8, replacing Sameer Rizvi.
Oopss.. the heavens are opening up, it seems. There is a drizzle around the Wankhede, which is getting heavier by the moment.
MI is the only team to have 4 pace bowlers to have picked up more than 10 wickets in IPL 2025. Deepak Chahar returns. 2-0-11-1 so far.
Jasprit Bumrah has really been a gamechanger for the Mumbai outfit. He is also in some really good form and picked up at least one wicket in each of the last 5 matches, also being economical.
Ashutosh Sharma walks in next at number 7, replacing Tristan Stubbs.
Since joining them in IPL 2024, Stubbs has been the leading run scorer for DC. Change of ends for Jasprit Bumrah. 1-0-5-0 so far.
Tristan Stubbs walks out at number 6, replacing Vipraj Nigam. Karn Sharma to bowl as well.
STRATEGIC TIMEOUT. Sad scenes in the DC dugout. At the toss, Faf du Plessis said that he hoped that his team would compete in this game. But 2 bad overs with the ball have cost them really big. Vipraj Nigam might have to do a Jesse Ryder here, who was famous for tormenting oppositions when he used to suffer a groin or hamstring injury. Clearly, Vipraj is unable to run and Sameer Rizvi is under pressure to score the boundaries. If Nigam can do a Ryder and just blast the bowling apart, it might help his side a touch. Else, a couple of wickets are around the corner. Impact substitution time for Mumbai Indians. KARN SHARMA IN, ROHIT SHARMA OUT.
In MI's last game vs GT, all wickets were picked up by their pacers. Here's Jasprit Bumrah.
