OUT! CAUGHT! Here is another wicket and Sams gets his fourth wicket! Outstanding catch from Kieron Pollard at long off and good innings from Ambati Rayudu comes to an end.

OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust! It is the big wicket of Jadeja. Mumbai now surely on top. Sticks to bowling it wide outside off, another slower one.

FOUR! DHONI PUTS IT AWAY! That is why he is the best finisher in the world! Dhoni you absolute beauty! Probably not off the middle but he won't care! He has just turned back the clock.

A low full toss on the pads, Dhoni swings, it goes more off the inner half through backward square leg and into the boundary. CHENNAI WIN IT ON THE LAST BALL BY 3 WICKETS!
