The prospect of a final face-off between Sachin Tendulkar and Shane Warne had dominated the build-up to this clash, but on the field it was overshadowed by an imposing performance from Shane Watson.
The Sachin-Warne duel failed to produce any fireworks but it was action all around at the Wankhede Stadium as the Mumbai Indians managed to score 133/5 in the IPL-4 match here on Friday.
Australian spin legend Shane Warne today lavished praise on his long-time tormentor Sachin Tendulkar, declaring the iconic Indian batsman as the greatest cricketer he has ever played against.
