Mumbai Indians pulled off a dramatic last ball win over Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens in Kolkata in the last league match of IPL 4. Mumbai Indians captain Sachin Tendulkar won the toss and put KKR to bat. Jacques Kallis (59 runs off 42 balls), Yusuf Pathan (36 runs off 27 balls) and Manoj Tiwary (35 runs off 22 balls) contributed as KKR scored 175/7 in 20 overs. James Franklin and Abu Nechim Ahmed took 2 wickets each for the Mumbai Indians. In reply, Mumbai Indians kept on losing wickets and they seemed to be in a losing position as they required 44 runs in 3 overs and then 21 runs in the last over. But they took advantage of both overs of Balaji as they smashed him for 37 runs in his two overs (over no. 18 and over no. 20) and finished off the win with a last ball six by Ambati Rayudu to guide MI to 178/5 in 20 overs. James Franklin was the unlikely hero as he scored 45 runs off 23 balls and was ably supported by Ambati Rayudu (17 runs off 6 balls). Rajat Bhatia took 3 wickets for KKR. James Franklin was awarded the Man of the Match for his match winning knock of 45 runs in 23 balls and his 2 wickets for 35 runs.

Delhi Daredevils thrashed Mumbai Indians by 7 wickets in the 35th match of IPL T20 season 2. Sachin Tendulkar won the toss and decided to bat. The Mumbai Indians batting lineup crumbled once again and they were bowled out for a mere 116 runs in their 20 overs. Ashish Nehra (2/27), Dirk Nannes (2/32) and Rajat Bhatia (3/15) had the best bowling figures for the Delhi Daredevils. Delhi Daredevils played sensibly without losing much wickets and they cruised to 118/3 in 18.5 overs guided by 50 runs off 38 deliveries by A B De Villiers. Ashish Nehra was awarded the Man of the Match.
