Mumbai Indians faced thier 2nd defeat in 3 matches yesterday as they lost to Rajasthan Royals by 5 wickets. It was a shameful loss considering that they had as much as 32 runs to defend in the last over.
Dilhara Fernando was given the ball in the last over. Having 14 runs to defend he made a sorry state of affairs for himself by giving away a six in the third ball. Of the last ball RR needed 3 to win. Again Fernando did a sin(yup, you heard it right), he bowled a wide. Two runs of the last ball, two misfields after the ball was delivered and Rajasthan had a record for 7 wins on home turf.
Delhi are through to the finals. Mumbai need to win thier last match and hope Chennai lose in their penultimate match to go to the finals.
