7.50pm That's all the action from the Wankhede today, but that's not all the cricket from today. Gujarat Titans are taking on Rajasthan Royals in a replay of last year's final. This is Abhimanyu, signing off on behalf of Sreshth, Thilak and everyone else here at ESPNcricinfo.
Venkatesh Iyer is the POTM, for his 51-ball 104: "Would have been happier if we would have finished on the winning note but nonetheless, pleased with my effort. That's the role given to me by the management and it's my job to repay them. Obviously it was a very beautiful wicket to bat on. Once you score those 30-40 runs, it gets easy to score. Really happy to get a hundred. Their new ball bowlers are both swing bowlers and once you allow them to settle down, it gets difficult. So I just didn't want to let them settle. Once the swing goes away, it gets easier to play them. Once you're out there doing something for the team, you forget all the pain. The wicket was really nice and I was enjoying myself out there. In hindsight I think we did score 15-20 runs less, and the way MI were going, they could have scored it in another over but yeah, we were a little short."
Mumbai Indians captain on the day, Suryakumar Yadav comes out to speak: "We had a chat in the dugout that we had to carry the momentum from the last game and the boys put on a show. I would have loved to finish the game but nevertheless, I was very happy with the way the team played. In the afternoon we thought the wicket was a little dry, but the way the guys batted it settled down in the evening. At the Wankhede in day games, 160-170 is a good score but Kishan got us off to a great start. I took my time in the first five-seven balls and thought if I could get my eye in I could get a score. We know that if the top order gives a good start, what kind of firepower we have lower down the order. It was a legendary spell [Piyush Chawla]. He put his hand up under pressure."
7.40pm It's time for the presentation ceremony
Sumeet: "On a complete tangent.. ZAK even today looks so fit and does not look a day older than the 2011 World Cup winning ZAK! "
7.30pm The Mumbai Indians side take a lap of the stadium, which is all blue right now. There are loud cheers all around. Sachin Tendulkar ended his career with a lap of honour and Arjun Tendulkar begins his with one, notes Hemant Brar!
Nitish Rana: "I think we were 15-20 runs short. Credit to PC bhai (Piyush Chawla) for the way he bowled. I feel quite bad for Venky. You play so well, score a century in a day game in Mumbai and you end up on the losing side. I feel bad for him. If our best bowlers are going for runs, there's not much to say. The way Ishan played against Narine. I think we could have bowled better in the powerplay. I definitely want my bowling unit to deliver more. One or two matches is fine, but it's been five games now. People can have off days, but on back-to-back games, it hurts as an unit. But we will talk about it and hopefully we can bounce back."
7.21pm Mumbai Indians have bounced back in style with two wins in two games. Venkatesh Iyer's belligerent century seems a long while back now. He never got the support he needed from his team-mates today and Mumbai Indians have chased down the target in style. Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma pretty much killed the game in the powerplay and Suryakumar Yadav returning to form is an added bonus for them.
Ferguson goes around the wicket
Diwakar: "Once upon a time Rana and SKY played for opposite teams and then in one of the auctions they got into other team and in today's match they are the captain of that team"
Cam Green comes out to bat with two runs needed
