Mumbai Indians beat Deccan Chargers by 25 runs and record 6th continous win in the IPL. No other team has done it! After losing the first four games, they have bounced back very well and did not surrender like Bangalore Royal Challengers or Hyderabad Deccan Chargers.
Batting first, Mumbai scored 178 for 7 in 20 overs with Jayasuriya demolishing the early attack with his usual batting style. He scored 36 in just 15 balls including 6 fours and 2 sixes. When he was caught at deep square leg off a sweep from Venugopal Rao, the score was 39 in 2.5 overs. Tendulkar tried to keep the momentum, but got out for 23, tried to slog Afridi's first ball to find Silva at covers. He scored 23 off 19 balls with 4 fours.
Nayar scored 38 off 24 balls with 3 fours and 2 sixes and Bravo added 30 off 17 balls with 2 fours and 2 sixes.
