Kumar Kartikeya, comes into the attack

Timeout. RR need a bit of a breather here. After starting well in the first two overs, their bowlers struggled to contain the opposition in the next four.

5.6

Theekshana to Rickelton, no run, full on leg-stump, Rickelton looks to work it into the leg-side and is struck on the pad

5.5

Theekshana to Rickelton, no run, flatter delivery on middle-leg, Rickelton looks to work it into the leg-side but is beaten by the pace, hits him on the front-pad and Theekshana was absolutely convinced he had his man, he was shocked it wasn't given and signalled his captain to review. Parag wasn't hasty though and consulted his keeper and they decided not to go upstairs. Good call too as that had pitched outside the line of leg stump

- Second 50-plus opening stand for MI this season in 11 games.

Scratch that, they haven't reviewed

5.4

Theekshana to Rickelton, FOUR, RR are really bleeding boundaries now! Flatter just outside off, Rickelton rocks back and creates a bit of room before slapping it hard through extra cover, Theekshana hasn't hit his lengths today

5.3

Theekshana to Rohit, 1 run, low full-toss on off-stump, driven to extra cover, fielder does well to stop it and keep it down to one

5.2

Theekshana to Rohit, FOUR, he goes again! Too full from Theekshana once more, just outside off and it was asking to be hit, Rohit slices it uppishly over extra cover and picks up four more

5.1

Theekshana to Rohit, FOUR, they're motoring now! Tossed up full on middle-leg, Rohit makes a bit of room and lifts it over mid-off, safe shot that and he gets four

Maheesh Theekshana [1.0-0-7-0] is back into the attack
