Johannesburg, Oct 6 (ANI): Indian Premier League (IPL) side Mumbai Indians will play their Indian counterparts Rajasthan Royals in the Champions League Twenty20 finals following an emphatic win over Trinidad and Tobago in the second semi-finals OF the tournament at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi on Saturday.
An impressive 59 off 38 balls by Dwayne Smith and an equally strong cameo by Dinesh Karthik propelled the Mumbai Indians to their 157-run victory at the loss of four wickets, also boosted by Indian maestro Sachin Tendulkar's special milestone run.
Tendulkar scored his 26th run as he completed 50, 000 runs in all forms of recognized cricket, Sport24 reports.
Trinidad scored 153 for five in their twenty overs, although Mumbai Indians' bowlers Nathan Coulter-Nile (1-20 in four overs) and Kieron Pollard (1-16 in three overs) used the off-cutters and other slower variations to frustrate Trinidad in the later overs. (ANI)
