But their plans of capitalising on a pitch that was full of runs boomeranged spectacularly as they ran into trouble from the very first over of their innings.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nShikhar Dhawan, one of their batting mainstays departed after just 1 run, getting bowled by Sri Lankan pacer of the last ball of the first over, putting an end to his opening partnership with skipper David Warner (6) that has been SRH&#39;s key to big totals in the tournament.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBut that was just the beginning of what was a miserable batting performance as they lost their skipper on the very next delivery, caught by West Indian Kieron Pollard off a Mitchell McClenaghan delivery.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nWith their two best batsmen back in the hut, there was no way out for SRH who succumbed to the pressure losing wickets at regular intervals.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nCredit must be given to the entire Mumbai bowling line-up who delivered in unison, keeping up the pressure on SRH batsmen.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThey bowled a probing line and length and swiftly reduced SRH to 51 for five inside 10 overs with Hyderabad&#39;s other two dependable foreign imports, England&#39;s Eoin MOrgan (9) and Australia&#39;s Moises Henriques (11) also back in the pavilion.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThat broke the backbone of SRH&#39;s batting. Any Hyderabad&#39;s hopes of posting a strong total went up in smoke and they stomped and stumbled to 113.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nMumbai&#39;s opening pacers Malinga (4\/17) and McClenaghan (3\/16) were spectacular. They bowled in tandem and struck crucial blows to their opponents.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nTheir good work was carried on by the slower bowlers, spearheaded by Harbhajan Singh (3\/18).<\/span><\/span><br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
