Mumbai Indians restrict Pune Warriors to 129/9

The Warriors, who had won only four games in the previous season, slumped to 27 for 3 by the fifth over after being put in to bat and never recovered from the early blows.

The Warriors lost the wickets of Manish Pandey, skipper Sourav Ganguly and Wayne Parnell, all of them to poor shots, much to the delight of the home crowd.

Only Robin Uthappa (36 in 33 balls with three fours) and Steven Smith (39 in 32 balls with four fours) were among the runs and also compiled the highest stand of the innings
