— sachin tendulkar (@sachin_rt) May 20, 2015Mumbai Indians put up a superb all-round performance crushing Chennai Super Kings by 25 runs to enter the final of the eighth edition of Indian Premier League here on Wednesday.
En route their third entry to the summit round after 2010 and 2013, Mumbai Indians scored 187 for 6 largely due to the brilliant cameo from Kieron Pollard who smashed a 17-ball-41 on the platform laid by Lendl Simmons' 65 off 51 balls.
In reply, CSK's much vaunted line-up could muster only 162 in 19 overs as none of the top-order batsmen went onto play a match-winning knock. Such was the domination by the home team that CSK never looked a part during better part of the match and ended second best in the process. But the five-time finalists and two-time champions will get another crack during the second Qualifier to be played in Mahendra Singh Dhoni's hometown Ranchi. Read the full story here.
