Mumbai Indians First win

The Mumbai team, mired with controversy surrounding Harbhajan Singh, put out Kolkata Knight Riders by seven wickets at the Eden Gardens to score their first win in five matches.

The Kolkata team suffered its second straight loss, after scoring two successive wins.

Chasing a modest 138 to win, Mumbai were reduced to 25 for three in the fifth over before a 113-run fourth-wicket partnership between Bravo and Robin Uthappa (37 not out) sealed them a win.

Bravo's 53-ball knock contained eight boundaries and a huge six and ensured Mumbai's win with eight balls to spare.

Ajit Agarkar, Ishant Sharma and Ashok Dinda took a wicket each for the Knight Riders, but the home team's total was too paltry in the final analysis.

Earlier, Mumbai Indians' veterans Sanath Jayasuriya and Shaun Pollock stole the limelight, wrecking the top and middle order of the Kolkata Knight Riders, to restrict the hosts to a modest 137 for 8.
