In Match 32 of the IPL T20 season 2, Adam Gilchrist won the toss and put Mumbai Indians to bat. Deccan Chargers could only reach 145/6 in 20 overs with the help of useful innings from Rohit Sharma (38 off 36 balls), Venugopal Rao (28 off 17 balls) and Adam Gilchrist (25 off 29 balls). It seemed to be an easy chase for the Mumbai Indians but it seemed that the Mumbai Indians batsmen had got habituated to the art of choking every time they took a start. Even a valuable half century by J P Duminy (52 off 48 balls) and Pinal Shah (29 off 19 balls) could not save them from a defeat as the whole Mumbai Indians lineup tumbled and could reach only 126/8 in 20 overs. The special feature of the innings is that Rohit Sharma took the second hat-trick of IPL T20 season 2 as he bagged the wickets of Abhishek Nayar, Harbhajan Singh and J P Duminy in consecutive deliveries. After the hat-trick he also took another wicket leaving only one ball in between. The best bowling figures for Deccan Chargers were of Rohit Sharma, R P Singh and Tirumalsetti Suman with figures of 4/6, 2/19 and 2/14 respectively. Rohit Sharma was awarded the Man of the Match for his valuable innings of 38 runs off 36 balls and his bowling spell of 4 wickets for 6 runs in 2 overs.

Deccan Chargers were regarded the underdogs as they were at the last place in IPL T20 season 1 points tally. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians is regarded as one of the best teams of IPL 2 with a great bowling and batting combination. Adam Gilchrist won the toss and decided to bat. Hershelle Gibbs (58 off 44 balls), Dwayne Smith (35 off 22 balls) and Adam Gilchrist (35 off 20 balls) guided Deccan Chargers to a competitive total of 168/9 in their 20 overs. Lasith Malinga and Dwayne Bravo were good with the ball with 3 for 19 and 3 for 34 respectively. Mumbai Indians started off well after initial hiccup of Jayasuriya’s wicket with Sachin Tendulkar (36 off 27 balls) and J P Duminy (47 off 40 balls) playing brilliantly. But yet again the strategy break proved to be damaging and Sachin got out soon after after which the required run rate kept on increasing. The middle order could not hold for long and instead of great effort by some of the batsmen, Mumbai Indians could only score 156/7 in their 20 overs. Pragyan Ojha from the Deccan Chargers was adjudged the Man of the Match for his spell of 4 wickets for 21 runs.
