Mumbai Indians picked up yet another handsome win defeating Delhi Daredevils by 39 runs at the Brabourne Stadium. Kieron Pollard was the difference between the two sides as his unbeaten 45 (from 13 balls which included 5 sixes) powered Mumbai Indians to 183 for 4 on a turning pitch. There were also decent contributions coming in from Sachin Tendulkar (30) and Saurabh Tiwary (38 from 28 balls).

Daredecils started well in their chase until David Warner (31 from 15 balls) got brilliantly caught at mid off by Ali Murtuza in the 4th over. After his dismissal, Daredevils lost all the momentum and could only finish with 144 for 7 to come a distant second. Pollard was the star with the ball as well conceding only 15 off his 4 overs while left arm spinner Ali Murtuza got rewarded with 2 for 18 in his 4 overs.
