Chasing 165 to win, Mumbai Indian got a perfect start with opener Shikar Dhawan scoring a half century. But things seemed to be going out of the hands of Mumbai Indians when it lost Shikhar Dhawan and Kieron Pollard (20) in quick succession. Ravi Bopara dismissed Dhawan in the 12th over and also toot a brilliant catch at long-on off Irfan Pathan’s bowling to get rid of dangerous Pollard. But, Rajagopal Sathish (17 not out) and Saurabh Tiwary (31) ensure they took the team past the target comforrtably.
