Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians Highlights
Mumbai Indians pull off a wonderful victory against Chennai Super Kings In The First Match
Who said veterans are not fit for the shorter version of the game? You better rethink. Because it’s Tendulkar who stayed with an unbeaten 59 gave a 166 runs decent score to the Mumbai Indians. The team wins the first match of the tournament with 21 runs against the favorites Chennai Super Kings.
Tendulkar punctuated his innings with 7 fours in 49 balls although his side went on losing wickets at regular intervals. Thanks to the veteran who not only steadied the innings but also gave some decent figure for his bowlers to defend.
From CSK it was Manpreet Singh Gony who could be said successful claiming 2 wickets; one of Shikhar Dhawan who looked to steer to a great total and then that of Jean Paul Duminy. Abhishek Nayar tore Flintoff to 3 sixes and his 35 run from 14 balls came very handy for the MIs.
Chennai Super Kings started off poor in reply to MIs’ 165/7. Parthiv played a lose shot of Lasith Malinga’s delivery and Sachin didn’t miss the catch. Rohan Raje’s catch almost on the ropes of Raina is one to remember in this match. Andrew Flintoff who looked dangerous with 24 runs off 23 balls fell to Harbhajan. Later, the match was carried by CSK’s team captain, MS Dhoni but his armory did not have boundaries and sixes enough to take his team forward. Zaheer Khan and Lasith Malinga’s spells were too good and they did not give any room for runs. Chennai Super Kings fell short by 22 runs in chasing the 167 run target.
