Jayasuriya’s 47 ball 114 not out led to an emphatic victory of Mumbai Indians in their IPL match against the Chennai Super Kings.

Tendulkar who was playing his first IPL match did not contribute much with bat but was witness to spectacular fireworks by Jayasuriya.

Chennai Super Kings did not have a good start and the batsman made it look as if the pitch was very difficult to play. Last few overs heroics by Dhoni and Badrinath helped them psot a decent total of 156/6.

 

From then all it was all Sanath Jayasuriya. His innings of 114 with 11 sixes and 9 fours helped Mumbai Indians reach the score in 13.5 overs only for the loss of only one wicket.

Here is what I feel Chennai Super Kings need to do (but ofcourse dhoni is a better judge):

  • Flemming is not his usual self and does not seem to be enjoying his game. Get rid of him and get Parthiv Patel or someone else.
  • Chennai Super King bowlers need to learn from Kings XI Punjab bowlers who seemed to have mastered the art of bowling yorkers in dealth overs.

Man of the Match: Sanath Jayasuriya
