Turnaround

Zero points from the first three matches. Shame and relegation looked likely. Mumbai were staring at being booted out of the competition that they had won 36 times before. But its not for nothing that Mumbai cricket has so many legends and stories associated with it. They say Mumbai cricket is 'khadoos' where the players dont give an inch and fight to the finish - and have it in them to pull off a stunner when all looks lost.

Mumbai did that yet again. They went on to win the next 3 matches - with bonus points no less and stormed into the semis.

And if one thought that it was the end of their turnaround heroics - they decided to fight back from 0/5 in the second inning in the semis to post a stunning win - courtesy heroics from Vinayak Samant.

And then the finals - picking up 6 wickets in 21 balls to seal the issue just when it looked like Bengal was threatening to upstage Mumbai.

What can i say but Mumbai rocks!
