Warriors vs MI, 21st match at Mumbai, IPL, Apr 20 2011 - Match Result

It's always endearing to listen to Munaf speak in these post-game ceremonies. Honest cricketer, who knows his limitations and sticks to the basics. Right then, the Maharashtra Derby was a damp squib despite the last ball finish. Here's hoping Kolkata and Kochi play a really good game. On behalf of the Cricinfo army, this is Nitin Sundar signing off. Ta!

Presentations at long last. Ravi Shastri does the ceremony, he's really the Man of the Match of Man-of-the-Match ceremonies.

Munaf Patel is the Man of the Match "I am working hard with Pollock, especially on line, length and legcutters. I have played continuously for India, now the IPL and five days of practice here at the Wankhede [hence my good rhythm]. I had to use my variations, else they bang you on these pitches!"

Tendulkar: "Batting could have been better, we should have finished it in 17-18 overs. There were some hiccups in the middle since we could not produce bit shots. Brilliant performance from our fast bowlers, though. Pollard's was mind-boggling. Wicket was slower than the previous ones, today was one of those days when the shots me and Rayudu were trying did not come off, and hopefully that won't happen again. Thanks to the crowd for the support, this noise is an addiction!"

Yuvraj: "Another 20 runs would have been good. Not our day, we were never in the match. We lost too many early wickets. This is the only game we haven't played well in, so far."

Rayudu: "The wicket wasn't as easy as we thought, it was holding up a bit, but we were always in control. May be we could have finished it an over or two before."

Sen Saban: "Yeah. They might also say most of Sachin's tweets are not replies. So he is not good in "second inning" tweets! And compare him with Styris who has a measly 17000 followers but comes up with tweets when his team needs them." Howlarious!

Naresh: "Sachin Tendulkar has become the first Indian with over a million followers on Twitter. I'm waiting for critics to slam him for being on Twitter for personal records." Ah! Meanwhile, I hear Naresh plagiarised that comment, that too from my good friend Rahul Roushan, creator of Faking News. Caught you Naresh.

Ashok: "Rohit Sharma almost did a South Africa." More like it.

Tapajyoti: "Rohit Sharma's done a Javed Miandad!" Ye, right. And I am a koala bear.

Yuvraj has a half-smile as he shakes hands with the Mumbai players. Should he have bowled that last over? Mumbai played things really safe in the last two overs, else it would not have come down to the last ball. The two fours in Parnell's 18th over allowed them to cruise, and they might have taken things a little too easy towards the end. No worries, though. Danny Morrison calls it "a comfortable seven-wicket win". He's got it kind of right, despite the contrives finish.

1 off 1. Bring on the Super Over! The field converges.

Yuvraj and Kartik have a chat. Pressure! If only Pune had fielded better. Or batted 20 overs...

Who will bowl the last over? It's Yuvraj... Oh no, it's Kartik. Five to win.

Pune, sadly, were all-out by this time.

Ankush: "Alfonso Thomas should have been a part of Kochi team. The mango name would have gelled with the team outfit. :)" Ha!

Parnell comes on. Mumbai need a boundary somewhere to release this little pressure head that's come about.
