Delhi Daredevils beat Mumbai Indians by 7 wickets
 
Delhi have registered yet another convincing victory against a hapless Mumbai team. They win by seven wickets, with seven balls to spare. Chasing 117 on a track which assisted the bowlers, Delhi went about their chase clinically, keeping wickets in hand and not taking too many risks. Just when Mumbai's spinners were putting pressure on Delhi, Tendulkar decided to bowl himself and AB de Villiers made merry by scoring 19 runs in that over which put Delhi in a comfortable position to win the match from there. De Villiers' second fifty came off 38 balls and he is responsible for taking Delhi to the top of the IPL points table. Mumbai will need to win all their forthcoming encounters to qualify for the semi-finals. Zaheer Khan and Sanath Jayasuriya were sorely missed for this game. Delhi are looking like the team to beat in this tournament. Ashish Nehra is declared the Man of the Match.
