    The right-left combination hit the opposition bowlers all over the park and beyond before Knight Riders managed to pull back, picking the big two and restricting the Mumbai Indians when it looked like they would run away with the match. Tendulkar first started with a flick off his pads to Ishant Sharma and then dispatched Ashok Dinda over third man for a six.
