DROPPED AND FOUR! Tim David puts down a dolly! Short of a length, outside off. Padikkal this time tries to ramp it away but the ball goes off the upper half of the bat and to deep backward point where Tim David has enough time to settle down but makes a meal of it. Just where Daniel Sams made a mistake. A boundary.

FOUR! This time uses his feet! On a length and around off. Padikkal comes down the track, gives a bit of space and hammers it straight back past the bowler for a boundary.

FOUR! CHANCE! Short of a length and targeting Buttler's head. He looks to pull but gets a top edge to deep square leg. Sams there, misjudges the flight of the ball as he runs forward and then realizes he has made a blunder. He leaps and runs back but to no avail. The ball lands right in-between the ropes and the ground. The third umpire has a view and calls it a boundary.

Boundary-check! The umpires have sent the decision upstairs and they are checking whether the ball landed directly on the boundary cushion. It seems that the ball landed just in front of the boundary cushion and the umpire signals a boundary.

The players of both sides have lined up and they are giving a round of applause in the memory of the former Rajasthan skipper, Shane Warne.

">Rajasthan players will be wearing a special jersey 'SW23' for this game against Mumbai, as a tribute to their former player and coach, Shane Warne.

Rohit Sharma, the skipper of Mumbai, says they will bowl first, as the nature of the pitch suits their game as well. Informs there are two changes. Adds that the preparation happens before the tournament, it's just ticking the boxes and the focus is to win the game while enjoying it. Feels they should stick together as a team.

TOSS - Mumbai have won the toss and they have elected to BOWL first.

Rajasthan are flying high this season with a wonderful squad and some match-winning players in them. They are on a three-game winning streak and also had the upper hand when these two sides met earlier this season. Will they do the double or will Mumbai find a breakthrough? We will find out soon. Stay tuned for further updates.

The last time Mumbai played it was Sachin Tendulkar’s birthday but the result was again unconventional. Today it’s the Hitman, Rohit Sharma’s birthday and although the season already looks gloomy, Mumbai will hope that the skipper would give a return gift to his team by registering their first win of the season.

Super Saturday means a double dose of entertainment and the second match is between two teams who are travelling in unparalleled ways, it is Rajasthan vs Mumbai. One team is at the top half of the points table, while the other is hanging down with a sullen look. On that note, a very warm welcome to our coverage. Who are you cheering for tonight?

... MATCH DAY...
