Once again Sachin proved his caliber in achieving victory for his team with all his 21 years experience of his cricket
Against Pune Warriors his team beat Pune Warriors by seven wickets at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai yesterday.
Mumbai bowlers struck fast to lessen Pune its score to 118 and this task was at ease to them to win over the opposite team.
Mumbai lost its opener James Franklin in the first over itself when the score was 9.But as soon as captain Sachin
And Ambati Rayudu with their partnership had put on 74 runs until in the 14th over Rahul Sharma took off Sachin’s wicket in the 14th over as sachin gave an mid-air shot which failed to cross the boundary.His score was 35.
As soon as this partnership has broken Rayudu too did not stay for long and caught hold by Rahul Sharma at 89
Mumbai score.But finally Symonds and Rohit Sharma helped their team to achieve its victory.
The Warriors too made some changes. They dropped Graeme Smith to bring in Tim Paine and drafted in Murali Kartik for Abhishek Jhunjhunwala. The first change though didn't work as Munaf Patel castled Paine who missed a slog. Pune had slumped to 17 for 3 and a lot depended on Yuvraj Singh, their skipper. But he lasted just two balls and edged Munaf to Rayudu. Four wickets had been lost for one run in the space of seven balls. Robin Uthappa and Mohnish Mishra then took the score past 50. More was expected from this partnership but Ali Mortaza took his wicket. As well as Munaf, Malinga and Mortaza bowled, the Warriors had no business to not bat out their full compliment of 20 overs. They wasted 16 deliveries and contributed greatly to Yuvraj's smile turning into a glower.
