A superb all-round effort from man-of-the-match Rohit Sharma -- 38 and 4 for 6 in two overs, including a hat trick -- enabled Deccan Chargers beat Mumbai Indians by 19 runs.


J P Duminy (in the picture) was the lone Mumbai batsman to play an innings of any worth, his 48-ball 52 containing seven boundaries. But he was desperately let down by his teammates.

This was the Hyderabad team's second successive win over Mumbai in the competition, having got the better of them in their opening match-up at Durban.

"I thought the bowlers did a fantastic job. It was the batting in the middle stages that didn't go according to our plan. Pinal batted really well, he kept the scoreboard ticking quite nicely. But it's just that in between overs we lost wickets and didn't score many runs," Tendulkar said after the match.

Earlier Deccan Chargers scored 145 runs for the loss of 6 wickets.
