Bangalore however managed to strike first when Mitchell Johnson (unseen) shattered the stumps of a rather tentative looking Tillakaratne Dilshan.(BCCI Image)

Virat Kohli however, got a superb start for himself and negated the early wicket of Dilshan. He hit four boundaries and a six in his 14-ball 24 before becoming the first victim of debutant Jasprit Bumrah.(BCCI Image)

Bumrah may have been a new kid on the block but the right-handed medium-fast bowler added two more wickets to his kitty to dent Bangalore's batting.(BCCI Image)

Gayle had been an uncharacteristically mute audience at the other end for most part of the innings. (BCCI Image)

He eventually found his rhythm to unleash full fury. Gayle's knock of 92 took him just 58 deliveries as his ferocious hitting took the hosts to 156.(BCCI Image)

Sachin Tendulkar got a huge cheer when he came out to start Mumbai's chase with Ricky Ponting.(BCCI Image)

Sachin hit a confident 23 off 19 but was dismissed in unfortunate circumstances.(BCCI Image)

Ponting looked to carry forward the innings and hit a boundary and a six in his 33-ball 28 before surrendering to Murali Kartik.(BCCI Image)

Dinesh Karthik hit magnificent shots though but his eventual wicket took the match to the wire only for his side to stop 2 short.(BCCI Image)
