IPL history: 5 greatest finals of all time

#2 Mumbai Indians beat Rising Pune Supergiant by 1 run - 2017

Mumbai won the crown for the third time in 2017

Having lost twice in the league stage and again in the first qualifier to Rising Pune Supergiant, Mumbai Indians was desperate to beat them in the finals of the 2017 season. They got off to a worst possible start as their innings never got going.

MI kept losing wickets at regular intervals as Krunal Pandya's 47 took them to a manageable total of 129. Pune was cautious to start as Ajinkya Rahane and Steve Smith played risk-free cricket in the middle overs. Just when they were trying to accelerate Pollard pulled off a stunning diving catch to dismiss Rahane.

Smith kept chipping in with timely boundaries to take the game to the last over needing 11. Manoj Tiwary scored a boundary and was dismissed off the next ball. The onus was on Smith to deliver and in the process of finishing it in a single shot, he picked the only man in the off-side.

With four needed off the last ball, Washington Sundar was run out when he was trying to take the third run. Mumbai won the match by one run as they clinched their third IPL crown in five years.
