STEVE SMITH CLINCHES IT!

Two massive sixes in the final over from Pollard just finished the game for RPS. Smith remains unbeaten on 84 and almost single-handedly won the game in his maiden stint as skipper.

Brilliant start for RPS, their first win at home. MI, meanwhile, continue to lend meat to the slow-starters theory.

Dropped:

Dhoni is dropped on 9 by Southee. A full toss hit straight to wide long on. Quite a flat strike and we've seen catches dropped from this angle. The floodlights are quite low and Southee lost the ball in the background. 13 needed off the final over to be bowled by Pollard.

27 needed off 18

Looks like with these two at the crease, this chase will be a simple one for RPS. They need just one of the two to stay on till the end.

Meanwhile, Ambati Rayudu was stretchered off the field after an injury. No update yet on what caused it.

WICKET: Stokes falls to Pandya

An old-fashioned slog straight down to deep mid wicket. Stokes falls for 21. Smith still holds the key in this chase for RPS. They will also have Dhoni walking in soon.


👌🏏







Steve Smith and Rohit Sharma have been escorted in on a golf cart with a band playing alongside. Hopefully the cricket that follows offers some better action. There is a lot to look forward to there as well. MS Dhoni is no longer the captain of RPS. Mumbai Indians have a near full-strength squad to choose from. The strategies that RPS adopt under Smith will also be quite interesting to look into.
