What was Bravo doing coming in at 2?
You have Sanath Jayasurya in your team. You have Sachin Tenculkar in your team. And you send Dwayne Bravo to open for you? Something is terribly wrong!!!!
Mumbai has been winning their matches when they have a proper batting line-up. And with the match almost in their bag after a fantastic performance with the ball, such a move is nothing but losing from the jaws of victory.
Ironically, as I write this Bravo just hits Appam for a massive SIX!!! What a shot!!!! And another one!!!! Whoa!!!

Team Selection and then batting line up, is baffling to the say the least, throughout the IPL 2009!
I actually like the idea of Bravo opening.. For one, it was a small total and gave Bravo time to find his range. And two, he is better suited up the order than down, where he tends to get bogged down in the middle overs.
The last two games, the Mumbai outfit is getting its batting order just about right.

Exactly Ankit.. I dont understand y they can't stick to their usual line up?
Homer,
I feel Bravo is better coming in at 3 down.. after Duminy... Yest the total was low & the Sreesanth over was bad.. otherwise Bravo was easily struggling... I still say that when u have Jayasurya & Tendulkar in the team, they should open.
