Playing his last competitive match, Shane Warne had Rohit stumped by Pinal Shah.

Rohit hit a six and 5 fours in his knock before falling to Warne.

Mumbai lost their fourth wicket when Kieron Pollard edged a Shane Watson delivery onto his stumps after hitting 2 fours in his 18-ball 20.

Amit Singh got the prized wicket of Tendulkar when he had the Mumbai captain caught by Shane Watson at third man.

Tendulkar hit 3 fours in his 35-ball 31 before falling to Singh.

Shane Watson dismissed Tirumalasetti Suman and Ambati Rayudu in his successive overs to rattle Mumbai's innings.

Ross Taylor took a good catch running backwards from the covers to dismiss Rayudu and give Watson his second wicket.

Mumbai got off to a bad start as Watson had Suman caught by Ashok Meneria at mid-wicket.

The breakthroughs came after Mumbai captain Sachin Tendulkar won the toss and chose to bat.

Mumbai replaced Aiden Blizzard with James Franklin.

Rajasthan brought in Ross Taylor, Johan Botha, Amit Singh and Sidharth Trivedi.
