Result – Mumbai Indians won by 8 wickets

Kings XI Punjab Innings
Kings XI Punjab won the toss and elected to bat first. The decision proved disastrous as they lost wickets right at the start and could never recover. Sohal played a good innings of 43 before he was out because of his own laziness. Apart from Sohal, Goel scored 20 runs and was the second highest run scorer for Kings XI Punjab. The batting collapsed and Kings XI Punjab could manage only 119/9 in 20 overs.

FOW:S Katich (5-1, 1.2), I Pathan (22-2, 3.2), S Sohal (50-3, 5.3), K Sangakarra (67-4, 9.1), W Mota (79-5, 11.1), *Yuvraj Singh (79-6, 11.4), L Pomersbach (89-7, 14.3), B Lee (106-8, 17.3), P Chawla (112-9, 17.4)

Mumbai Indians Innings
Chasing what we can call a low total as per IPL standards, Mumbai Indians lost the first wicket for just 5 runs. This initial break raised some hopes for Kings XI Punjab but Bravo was determined on one end and hammered all bowlers of Punjab. Mumbai Indians lost second wicket which brought Sachin Tendulkar to the center. Together with Bravo, Sachin played well and successfully chased the small total of set by Punjab.
