MySQL Update query with left join and group by

I take it that (Index1, Index2) is a unique key on Table, otherwise I would expect the reference to t.SpecialEventCount to result in an error.

Edited query to use subquery as it didn’t work using GROUP BY

UPDATE
    Table AS t
    LEFT JOIN (
        SELECT
            Index1,
            Index2,
            COUNT(EventType) AS NumEvents
        FROM
            MEvents
        WHERE
            EventType="A" OR EventType="B"
        GROUP BY
            Index1,
            Index2
    ) AS m ON
        m.Index1 = t.Index1 AND
        m.Index2 = t.Index2
SET
    t.SpecialEventCount = m.NumEvents
WHERE
    t.SpecialEventCount IS NULL
