Mumbai Indians alternated between brilliance and brain-freeze, and despite inexplicably fiddling with their batting order again, trumped Delhi Daredevils by five wickets and three balls to spare. A large chunk of the credit for their fourth win in a row ought to go to Rohit Sharma and Ambati Rayudu, who raised a 60-run stand to resurrect the innings after Daredevils had made a competitive, if not imposing, 152.

When Rohit was bowled by Amit Mishra's wrong one for 46 off 37 balls, Mumbai still needed 53 off 28 balls. But, Kieron Pollard biffed an unbeaten 26 off 14, while Rayudu, shifting gears in the end, remained a rock-solid presence, staying unbeaten for 40 balls.
