Today is the first semi final of DLF IPL 2010 between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore. The match is to be played at DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai at 8pm today. This is a knockout match i.e. the team which looses will be out of the League. Mumbai captain Sachin Tendulkar is hopeful of the team’s performance and will wish that Mumbai forgets about last match against KKR and get back to the winning streak. Mumbai has played superbly in this season of Indian Premier League and were the first team to qualify for the semi finals. They have won 10 off the 14 matches and are far ahead of all other teams in terms of points, but today none of that matters. Royal Challengers know that on a given day, it can be anyone’s game. RCB has defeated Mumbai earlier in group match and would like to repeat that performance today.

Fans of both teams would be cheering for their teams and would hope that the teams don’t falter at this crucial stage. The man to watch out today from Mumbai will be Sachin Tendulkar who has amazed one and all with his performance in this season. On the other hand Royal Challengers Bangalore have also played excellent cricket in this tournament and would be hoping that today the team effort will once again see them through to the finals.

We have fingers crossed today and lets hope may the best team wins.
