A dominating win for the Chennai Super Kings against Mumbai Indians in Mumbai. got the team to a flying start accumulating 61 runs in the powerplay.

A cameo of 31 from Tim David helped MI get to a respectable total of 157 which was always a tough one to defend against a deep batting lineup of .

In the end, CSK won the game comfortably by 7 wickets and 11 balls to spare!

Rohit Sharma, MI Skipper: "We lost our way in the middle and did not capitalize on the start we got. It was a good pitch and we were about 30-40 runs short. Have to give credit to their spinners, they bowled well and kept us under pressure. You need to try out different things, you need to attack and be brave. We have got a couple of young guys on the side and we got to give some time to them. They have real talent and we have to back them and show trust in their ability. The senior guys need to step up starting with me. We know the nature of this tournament, when the tournament starts we need to get some momentum and when we don't it is tough to get going. Just two games and all is not lost still. If you win, you can win a few on the trot, and when you lose it is hard to come out of that momentum. ." 

MS DHONI, CSK Skipper: "It was not easy after losing Deepak Chahar in the first over,  He is our new ball bowler and Mangala is playing his first match. The good thing is spinners bowled well and got us the game. It was a bit two-paced after 7 overs and started turning as well.  Mangala was good and so was Pretorious in their second spells. Also, Deshpande, We believe in his abilities and when you're new you are under pressure but playing in the IPL for a few years brings different pressure. He had a great domestic season, he is improving. I and Ajinkya Rahane spoke at the start of the season and I told him to play to his strengths and use his ability to manipulate the fields. I told him to go and enjoy himself, don't take the stress and we'll back him. That is exactly what he did."

RAVINDRA JADEJA is the Player of the Match

Ravindra Jadeja: "When we were bowling, the odd ball was turning. So I and Mitch wanted to bowl in good areas because they have so many power hitters. Every time we come here, the wicket plays differently, sometimes it is flat, and sometimes it is sticky. I and Santner discuss everything and whoever starts advises the other person on what lengths to bowl. We keep talking and advising each other."
