7.58pm The broadcasters have skipped the post-match presentation given the short turnaround time between the first and second game. Guess it's time to say goodbye. Switch tabs to the other game that's starting in Indore. Kings XI Punjab v Rajasthan Royals. First ball starting in a minute. We'll see you there. Bye for now!
7.45pm That's seven consecutive games, and 1125 days since Knight Riders last beat Mumbai, all the way back in April 2015. Handshakes all around as the Wankhede goes crazy. They're still alive.
Vishal Pawar: "Told ya yesterday, they're our bunnies! One more to go and we are even at the third spot!"
Pranay Bhanot: "Hardik Pandya for MoM ? Crucial runs with the bat and an outstanding spell with the ball..."
the crowd comes aliiiive!
Chirag: "Its good learning by KKR that Narain can't take calculated risks for death overs, and better to open with him to have wild scoring."
SD: "@Sameer: It's unfair to blame Uthappa alone. No one else contributed much in a chase where more than 9 is required every over. You can't expect one batsman to do it all by himself. It's a team game after all.
Long on, long off, deep midwicket, deep backward square and deep cover in place for DK as well
Adi: "Mi Gave 24 and 21 runs in their final over in their last two matches and today kkr need 23 runs,cant say anything "
Stof: "From a Protea supporter, i'll take Uthappa any day of the week"

Krunal to bowl the final over. Risky, given Narine's on strike. Mhhm. Long on, long off, deep midwicket and deep cover in place

Sameer: "A lot of people feel sorry that Uthappa is not in the Indian team. But this game explains why. He just is not capable of finishing them off. He had that opportunity today; and he fizzled off despite a great start."
Football fans in the Indian subcontinent can head to ESPN.in to stream the La Liga match between Atletico Madrid and Espanyol.
Where did Knight Riders lose the plot? They need 37 off the final two.
Srinath Sripath [7:34 PM] KKR's run rate has dropped to 6 an over since Uthappa fell. They were cruising at 8.96 till then.
Vignesh Kamath: "Narine at TOP and Gill as finisher was ideal for KKR. Sometimes too much planning kills yourself :D"
