Rajasthan elect to bowl against Mumbai

Written By Unknown on Sabtu, 21 September 2013 | 22.58

NEW DELHI: Mumbai Indians lost their top-order cheaply as they failed to withstand a fiery Rajasthan Royals pace attack in the inaugural match of the Champions League T20 in Jaipur.

Scorecard

Vikramjeet Malik started the party for Rajasthan when he dismissed Mumbai Indians opener Dwayne Smith and Dinesh Karthik in the second and sixth over respectively.

Malik first caught Smith (9) plumb before the right-arm medium pacer knocked out the stumps of wicketkeeper Karthik (2).

Soon after, Stuart Binny got the prized scalp of the master blaster Sachin Tendulkar (15) when the senior India batsman got a wicked outside edge that was taken comfortably by wicketkeeper Sanju Samson.

Earlier, Rajasthan Royals captain Rahul Dravid won the toss and decided to bowl following an initial delay of 15 minutes due to a wet outfield.

The fact that the tournament will be the last one for Tendulkar, who will be pitted against another great and contemporary Dravid at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium, makes the contest even more special.

Rajasthan can take confidence from the fact that they would be starting their campaign in their own den, where they had won all their eight matches during the sixth edition of the IPL.

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have a formidable team with the right balance and options in all departments.

Teams:

Rajasthan Royals: Rahul Dravid (Capt.), Ajinkya Rahane, Shane Watson, Sanju Samson (wk), Stuart Binny, Brad Hodge, Ashok Menaria, Kevon Cooper, James Faulkner, Vikramjeet Malik, Rahul Shukla.

Mumbai Indians: Sachin Tendulkar, Dwayne Smith, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Rohit Sharma (Capt.), Keiron Pollard, Ambati Rayudu, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Harbhajan Singh, Rishi Dhawan, Mitchell Johnson, Pragyan Ojha .
