New Delhi, May 7 (IBNS): Mumbai Indians defeated the host team Delhi Daredevils by 146 runs in an encounter in the tenth edition of the Indian Premier League, becoming the first team in the tournament to reach the pay-offs in the ongoing season, on Saturday.

Winning the toss, Delhi captain Zaheer Khan sent Mumbai to bat first and in reply the visiting team posted a huge total of 212 for the loss of three wickets.

Two West Indies players, Lendl Simmons and Kieron Pollard, scored 66 and unbeaten 63 respectively which helped MI to post 200 plus total.
