At Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai, March 22, 2010. Mumbai Indians won by seven wickets.
‡Kolkata Knight Riders 155-3 (20 overs) (C. H. Gayle 75, S. C. Ganguly 31, O. A. Shah 31);
Mumbai Indians 156-3 (18.3 overs) (S. R. Tendulkar 71*, S. S. Tiwary 30). MoM: S. R. Tendulkar.
Kolkata scored 62 off their last six overs, but even Chris Gayle, who faced 60 balls, had failed to
press the accelerator significantly before that, and they were at least 20 runs below par, which
allowed Mumbai to complete a relaxed victory; they logged 50 in just 4.2 overs.
