An umpiring howler off the last deliver cost Royal Challengers Bangalore dearly as Mumbai Indians pipped the hosts by six runs largely due to Jasprit Bumrah's brilliant spell at the death at Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru . Needing six to take the game into Super Over, Lasith Malinga's final delivery to Shivam Dube was a no-ball that was missed by the on-field umpires as RCB managed 181 for 5 in reply to 187 for 8 by Mumbai Indians. What hurt them more was AB de Villiers, who nearly took his team to victory with an unbeaten 70 off 41 ball would have faced the free-hit. Both umpires C Nandan and ICC Elite Panel's S Ravi bungled completely leaving Virat Kohli seething in anger. But nothing can be taken away from fit-again Bumrah's mastery at the death as he singlehandedly won it for MI with superb 17th and 19th overs.

हार्दिक पंड्या की आखिरी क्षणों की आक्रामक बल्लेबाजी और जसप्रीत बुमराह की डेथ ओवरों में कसी हुई गेंदबाजी के दम पर मुंबई इंडियन्स ने गुरुवार को यहां रॉयल चैलेंजर्स बेंगलोर को छह रन से हराकर आईपीएल 2019 में अपना खाता खोला। बैंगलोर के सामने 188 रन का लक्ष्य था, लेकिन बुमराह ने 20 रन के एवज में तीन विकेट लेकर उसकी पहली जीत दर्ज करने की उम्मीदों पर पानी फेरा।
