Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings are the top two teams in IPL, and both the teams have won three titles each. Their rivalry is fondly called 'The Super-Indian Derby' by the cricketing world.

When MI beat CSK in the 2013 IPL finals to win their maiden IPL title, Rohit did not contribute much as he got out for just two runs. However, when both the teams met again in the 2015 IPL finals, Rohit played an impressive knock scoring unbeaten 50 off just 26 balls at a strike-rate of 192.31. His quick-fire half-century helped Mumbai Indians to score 202 runs in 20 overs.

While chasing, CSK could manage only 161 runs, thus handing MI their 2nd IPL title. Rohit Sharma also won the Player of the Match award for his brilliant knock under pressure.
