Direct hit! Has AB de Villiers been caught napping? He wanted the second but was sent back. Was he late in getting back?

The phsyio is out in the middle to have a look at AB de Villiers. The mandatory checks are being done. AB looks alright though and seems fine to continue.

J Bumrah to de Villiers, OUCH! On the helmet. AB has been stunned by a vicious bouncer. A short ball, outside off, de Villiers looks to pull but is way too late into his shot. The ball jags back in sharply and hits him on the back of his helmet.

J Bumrah to de Villiers, FOUR! Another AB special. Low full toss outside off, AB backs away and crunches this wide of mid off for a boundary. Nothing wrong with the ball. Bumrah missed his length by just an inch or two.

Score151 - 4

L Malinga to M Stoinis, OUT! Malinga gets his second of the over and Marcus Stoinis departs for a duck. He has been outdone here by a very clever bowler. It is bowled at 119.3 kph on a length on middle and leg. Stoinis looks to flick but is way too early in his shot. He gets a leading edge which goes straight to Rohit Sharma at cover who makes no mistake.

Overs17.2
Score150 - 3

L Malinga to de Villiers, SIX! Not a bad ball at all, but this is all class from AB. He walks across his stumps and Malinga looks to fire it down the leg side. It turns out to be a full toss but AB still connects with his paddle, lapping it over fine leg, right onto the third tier!

21:24 (IST) Apr 15

Marcus Stoinis walks in at number 5, replacing Moeen.

Overs17.1
Score144 - 3

L Malinga to M Ali, OUT! The 95-run stand is broken and more importantly for Mumbai a new batsman will come in. Bangalore needed Moeen to play through but he cannot do so. Slower delivery on middle and leg, Moeen looks to go over mid-wicket but the lack of pace does him and he hits it straight to Hardik Pandya at deep mid-wicket.

21:23 (IST) Apr 15

Lasith Malinga to bowl the 18th. 2-0-16-0 so far.

J Bumrah to M Ali, Fifty for Moeen. The job is not done yet though and he needs to keep on accelerating and get his side to a big total. He gets to his fifty by flicking it towards mid-wicket.

J Bumrah to M Ali, Play and a miss. Shorter ball outside off, Moeen looks to pull but misses.
