Delhi Daredevils
Mumbai Indians
Delhi have crushed Mumbai, defeating them by 4 wickets with 15 balls to spare having finished with 166/6 in their chase. They got off to a flying start with Gambhir looking in excellent form along with Warner. Sehwag came in after Warner was out and he found his form back scoring 50 off just 27 balls and adding 68 runs for the second wicket with Gambhir. They were running away with the game at that stage and even though four wickets by Harbhajan Singh in his last two overs gave them a slight scare, they got home well in time.
Virendar Sehwag is the Man of the Match.
