MS Dhoni and Washington Sundar shone as Rising Pune Supergiant thrashed Mumbai Indians by 20 runs to reach their first Indian Premier League final on 16 May.

Dhoni smacked 40 off 26 balls in the death overs to help Pune post a decent score of 162/4 before young off-spinner Sundar scalped three wickets that led to Mumbai scoring 142/9 in Qualifier 1.
