NEW DELHI: Dinesh Karthik produced a champion’s knock to snuff out the challenge of Mumbai Indians on a thrilling night as Delhi Daredevils signed off its final appearance on home turf in style with a five-wicket win off the penultimate ball in the DLF-Indian Premier League on Saturday. Karthik’s clinical charge left Mumbai stunned as the home team came back from a difficult situation. It boiled down to eight runs from the last over by Ashish Nehra but Maharoof (20, 13b, 4x4) completed the job with two well-struck boundaries. Karthik (56, 32b, 4x4 3x6) held his nerve to carve out a victory that kept Delhi’s hopes of a semifinal berth alive. Karthik batted with purpose and his unfinished 49-run partnership with Maharoof was the highlight of Delhi’s performance. The scores: Mumbai Indians: 176 for eight in 20 overs. Delhi Daredevils: G. Gambhir c Smith b Nel 19, V. Sehwag b Nehra 18, S. Dhawan c Chitnis b Smith 27, M. Tiwari (run out) 36, T. Dilshan b Smith 0, D. Karthik (not out) 56, F. Maharoof (not out) 20, Extras (lb-2, w-1), Total (for five wkts in 19.5 overs) 179. Fall of wickets: 1-20, 2-50, 3-89, 4-89, 5-130. Mumbai Indians bowling: Pollock 3-0-33-0, Nehra 3.5-0-30-1, Nel 3-0-31-1, Kulkarni 3-0-26-0, Smith 3-0-22-2, Jayasuriya 4-0-35-0.
