IPL 2019: RCB Vs MI: Bumrah, Malinga shine in death as Mumbai edge Bangalore by 6 runs - As it happened

Jasprit Bumrah, Man of the Match: You go ball by ball and you try to control the controllables. You try to back yourself in the situation. You don't go too far behind, I was just focussing on my plan and trying to back my strengths. I always try to back myself in any situation and execute the plan to perfection. I have always taken care of my body.

Rohit Sharma, winning captain: I just got to know when we crossed the rope. These kind of things are not good for cricket, one of the Bumrah's deliveries wasn't a wide. Players can't do much. Very disappointed to see that. Anything over 180 is a good score. We know the conditions here and we got the bowlers to get the job done. We didn't panic, we kept sticking to our strengths. Middle overs are very crucial. We stuck to our plans and I think it was a great effort from the bowlers. Malinga has been the part of MI for a long time, you can always trust those guys in the back end. They bought experience into play. We were quite brave to bowl the deliveries we bowled. Bumrah executed well and we just missed a trick in the middle with the bat. Those are the kind of things we need to remember when playing big games. We were upto the mark today. We all understand Hardik's importance in the side. Whatever happened with him, he needed that confidence. Batted well and got us those crucial runs in the end.

Jasprit Bumrah gets the Man of the Match for his figures of 4-0-20-3. He bagged just 8 runs from the last three overs.

Mumbai Indians have continued their dominance at M Chinnaswamy. It's their 8th win in the IPL on this venue.

Virat Kohli: When they were 145 for 7, we should have done better. The last few overs were brutal for us. A few more strikes apart from AB could have done the job for us. We need to be smarter at death bowling. Sure they guys will take a lot of learnings from the game. I think the way they bowled, we can learn from their game. The onus is always on each and every member of the team. I got out at a wrong point of time. Shivam was good as well. I mean Jassi is a top-class bowler. A bit of a mistake from me to take him on at that stage. Mumbai is lucky to have him. And also Malinga. And if Jassi is in good form, it is good for India.

We playing at the IPL level and not playing club cricket. The umpires should have had their eyes open. That is a ridiculous call at the last ball. If it is a game of margins, I don't know what is happening. They should have been more sharp and careful out there: Virat Kohli lashes out on umpiring blunder on the final delivery.

TV replays showed that Malinga had over-stepped on the final delivery of the innings. Had umpires been alert it would have been a No Ball and RCB could have gotten an extra run, an extra delivery.

Mumbai Win!! Jasprit Bumrah and Lasith Malinga's brilliance in death overs ensures MI beat Royal Challengers by 6 runs. AB finishes the innings with 70 from 41 balls. He had almost taken RCB home but Bumrah and Malinga showed their brilliance in death overs.

The Jodi of guru & shishya wins it for @mipaltan #bumrah #malinga #VIVOIPL #OneFamily

11 runs conceded by Hardik Pandya from that over. RCB - 127/3 after 15 overs. 61 more runs required from 30 balls.

Four! AB de Villiers was lucky to get a boundary off Hardik. Suryakumar tried to catch it but missed it. Hardik wasn't happy with his teammate's effort as he failed to take the catch and the ball went for a boundary as well. Four! Mr 360 pulls it and gets another boundary off Pandya

BIG Wicket! Jasprit Bumrah gets the wicket of #CheekuBhaiya Hardik Pandya takes a simple catch to end Kohli's knock for 46. RCB - 116/3 after 13.4 overs.

5000 IPL RUNS for Virat Kohli Kohli Best thing about these runs is that all these came for RCB.

Just 4 runs conceded by Krunal from his final over. He finishes with 4-0-28-0. First time he's staying wicketless against RCB in 5 occasions. RCB- 114/2 after 13 overs.

SIX!! AB de Villiers flicks Malinga over the square-leg region for a maximum. RCB -109/2 after 12 overs.

100 comes up for RCB with a quick double between Kohli and ABD.

Four! Kohli welcomes Markande with a boundary on the first delivery. Later, AB de Villiers hits the spinner over long-off for a maximum. Much-needed shot from the big man. 13 runs came from that over for RCB. They are 95/2 after 11 overs.

7 runs came from that Krunal Pandya over. #RCB are 82/2 after 10 overs. The spinners have kept both VK and AB silent. 106 runs required from 60 deliveries.

Just three runs conceded by Markande from that over. He was asking the right questions all through that over, #RCB - 75/2 after 9 overs.

Dropped!! AB de Villiers would have been back in the dugout for a duck but Yuvraj puts him down at first slip. It was a regulation catch at slip, perhaps Yuvi wasn't the right fielder at that position. How costly is it going to prove for MI?

Wicket! Parthiv Patel (31) chops it on to the stumps and Mayank Markande gives RCB another jolt. Much-needed breakthrough for MI. RCB - 67/2 after 6.5 overs.
