What a thrilling match it was! I wouldn't lie and say that I had mentally registered Chennai Super Kings as the ultimate winner of this new season before Malinga decided 'not today' (get the GoT reference?). You can imagine what a nail-biting match it was when Rohit Sharma's Mumbai Indians registered a one-run victory against MS Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings to bring home the trophy for the fourth time. A perfect ending to this exciting season, MI deserved the win and that's not the true Mumbaikar in me speaking. Other 'Mumbaiwalas' are cheering for the home team equally.
