The Delhi Daredevils ousted the Mumbai Indians by five wickets in a nail-biting clash at the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium. The match went all the way down to the wire as the hosts chased down a massive target of 177 runs in the last over of the match with just one ball to spare.

Mumbai Indians registered a huge first innings total of 176 after being put into bat, courtesy an explosive innings from Sanath Jayasuriya at the top of the order. The left-handed opening batsman scored 66 off 42 balls to lay the foundation for his side.

The huge run chase was always going to be a tough task against the quality bowlers of the Mumbai Indians but a complete batting performance ensured that the hosts got over the line with a ball to spare. Dinesh Karthik stayed calm under pressure and produced one of his best knocks in the IPL as he scored a well-crafted half-century to guide the Daredevils in the run chase.

The wicket-keeper batsman managed an unbeaten 56 off 32 balls in this successful run chase and was awarded the Man of the Match for this effort.
