Mumbai Indians 159 for 7 (37 * Malinga, Ashwin 23/02, Raina 2-6) beat Chennai Super Kings 158 for 4 (Hussey 81, Dhoni 22 *) by three windows
It does not rain, it is absolutely pouring with MS Dhoni. In a night that everything had to Dhoni side script - the draw was won on the track slow, Michael Hussey scored 81 to establish a total of more-than-competitive was slower bowlers choked Mumbai Indians sleeves off, Dhoni had even removed two stumpings and a good decision questionable - he missed a relatively simple chance to strain Lasith Malinga. Malinga came to bat with 53 required in 4.4 overs with three wickets in hand, but with nothing to lose, he swung hard. When he joined right when he hit sixes edge, it was four when he misses, it was goodbye. With 37 out of 18, he completed an improbable victory with one ball to go.
It was a classic case of four overs Twenty20 outweigh the hard work of over 36 overs. It all started with the many times sweating Hussey. He had lost four kilograms in September 16 and 17 in Colombo, when scoring the century that earned him the third of three Man-of-the-match rates in the three test series. A week later, under similar conditions wet, but a completely different format, it seemed he never stopped playing on Indian land league slow and weak.
Seamlessly, he went to pat the game of trills and piecemeal, and pulling out the big hits, to help double the 12 in Chennai for more than 79 points He also received best and Malinga, scoring 13 off the bowler hat on third step, but only very Malinga returned to the issue of his last eight. Malinga did not know he would have done similar things like bat the next inning.
Mumbai openers had plenty of scoring would be facing the ball hard, and went swing accordingly. However, the approach would not work against the spinners. Hussey has played his 22 points in 81 rounds, Aiden Blizzard, but not attractive raps score of 28 balls in his ten. R Ashwin has come to emphasize points. It is almost inevitable that Jacobs was confused on the side of the legs. Dhoni notice of not investing through stump up worked a treat here.
Dhoni Raina presented before a specialist spinner, Shadab Jakati, and was rewarded with another stumping to return Suman T. It 'was followed by a catch small Ambati Rayudu to distinguish, a job that does not meet the control they deserve. Once again, it was all a matter of Pollard, who flattered, he promised, and is often the case, betraying a top-edging a slow Albie Morkel. Then came Malinga.
It all started with a four Morkel broken, but the sleeves reached a milestone when it hit six successive deliveries Jakata almost directly in parallel in two canoes. Chennai not panic yet. Later in the over Malinga ran from a flat Jakata. This time Dhoni had enough time to gather cleanly, but his instinct, without a second method followed by the bullet caused the spill. They are rarely misses. He is now with 31 still needed from three overs.
In the next over a New Yorker edged Malinga for four Bollinger well. The Curse of the hitters with nothing to lose work. Bollinger came back with four deliveries slower than a single lane in operation. Morkel also tried slower balls, but two of them out of discomfort. The faster you upset Malinga sent six other dishes that take more time off. Always need 13 from seven, Chennai were the favorites.
Morkel finished the night with a mistake Malinga slower ball. The ball rebounded to mid-Dhoni, had a wicked wicked bounce over his face and went to two good-bye. The second delivery of the last more Malinga slapped with absolutely no idea where he was striking. He went flying over point for four, and Mumbai was now the favorite with six needed from four. Captain Harbhajan Singh gave the finishing touch with a cut four off a slower one and the fifth ball of the over.
