It came to the final delivery but at one point it didn't look like it would. But Yusuf Pathan played a fabulous innings to make it a really close thrilling game. But Sathish terminated his innings with a fine piece of fielding and though Dogra tried his best with a few big hits, Zaheer Khan and Lasith Malinga ensured that Mumbai Indians would prevail.
That's it from us. Join us in a while for the second game.

Sathish to Dogra, OUT, Yusuf is run out! What a huge wicket! What a fine work from Sathish, the wonderful fielder! It was smashed back down the track, Sathish lunges to his right to stop it and has the presence of the mind to calmly flick a direct hit at the non-striker's end. Yusuf had backed up too far and couldn't come back in time. It has taken some fine fielding to terminate one of the most delightful T20 knocks.
