DLF IPL Season 5 - Match 19
Mumbai Indians Vs Delhi Daredevils at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai
Spectators were hoping that Sachin Tendulkar would play today. But he didn't want to take risk as he has not fully recovered.
Delhi Daredevils won the toss and elected to field. Delhi spinner Shahbaz Nadeem who bowled the second over clean bowled Davy Jacobs for a duck. Jacobs struggled for 10 deliveries before getting out. Nadeem also captured the wicket of dangerous Richard Levi. Rohit Sharma made a brisk 29 off 27 balls but did not care to stay till the end. Wickets kept tumbling at the other end too. Harbhajan scored 33 off 22 balls but did not try to carry on till the last over. Relentless bowling attack from Irfan Patha, Shahbaz Nadeem, Mornie Morkel and Umesh Yadav didn't allow Mumbai Indians to recover. Agarkar was the most expensive bowler of the lot. All the bowlers of Delhi Daredevils team were among the wickets. Mumbai were bowled out for 92 runs in 19.2 overs.
Needing 93 to win, Delhi Daredevils had a reasonable start. Naman Ojha scored 13 runs and got out when the total was 34. Pietersen could score only 9 runs. Sehwag played well scoring 32 off 36 balls. After his fall, Jayawardene and Ross Taylor played cautiously and achieved the victory in 14.5 overs. A convincing victory for the Delhi Daredevils took them to the top of the table.
