It was an absolute thriller in the grand final as the match went on the last ball. RPS needed 4 runs to win in the final ball. Daniel Christian and Washington Sundar managed to take two runs.
Batting first, Mumbai Indians were restricted to just 129 runs for the loss of 8 wickets in their 20 runs. Only Krunal Pandya managed to score some runs (47).
Chasing the low total, RPS at one point of time were in the driver's seat. But their slow run rate increased the pressure on the batsmen.
Mitchell Johnson in the final over took two wickets of Steve Smith and Manoj Tiwary to break the backbone of the team. MS Dhoni managed to score just 10 runs off 13 balls.
As Mumbai lift their third title, here are some photos from the match.
