Good-length delivery, around middle. Rohit Sharma stays in his crease and blocks this, but the ball goes off the toe-end, bounces on the deck, and goes just over the leg pole.

Umesh Yadav begins with a length ball, nipping back in, around middle. Rohit Sharma looks to defend this but he gets an inside edge back onto his pads.

We are all set for the action. The players of Kolkata are out in the middle. Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma to open for Mumbai. 50% crowd allowed from now on so, it almost feels like a full capacity here at Pune. The man in form, Umesh Yadav will start the proceedings. Here we go...
