Fernando, Jayasuriya Help Mumbai Rout Bangalore In IPL


Mumbai Indians outclassed Bangalore Royal Challengers in all departments of the game as they signed off their IPL campaign with an emphatic nine-wicket victory at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore today.


The rain-curtailed match saw Mumbai winning the toss and electing to bat first in an 18 overs a side contest.
Dilhara Fernando, who could have possibly messed up Mumbai's chances of qualifying for the semis the other night against Rajasthan, could not have done anything wrong today. He made amends for his poor final over last match and produced a wonderful performance with the ball to return four wickets, a run out and a catch to walk away with a man of the match prize.
Fernando's blitz reduced Bangalore to 122-9 in 18 overs while Mumbai, led by the experienced Tendulkar and Jayasuriya ensured that the match was pocketed with 12 balls to spare.
Jayasuriya was his aggressive self as he blasted 54 and added 96 for the first wicket with Tendulkar, who remained unbeaten on 40.
