The bowlers were right on the target and succeeded in restricting the defending champions to a modest total of 112. Had it been 30-40 runs more, it would not have been so easy for us,\u201d said Bhajji, making a special mention of the way his team fielded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the run outs changed the course of the match. Three run outs were gave us an edge. Running Dhoni was a turning point. Had he been on crease, we would had to chase 30-40 runs more and the results could have been different in that case,\u201d said Harbhajan who was in all praise for South African import Richard Levi.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLevi played a fantastic innings. His 50 nearly sealed the match for us,\u201d said Bhajji.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, CSK captain MS Dhoni said that it was yet another rusty start for his side. \u201cIt\u2019s just our first match. Mumbai Indians played well. We fell short of nearly 40 runs. But then you can never predict the outcome in this format. Had we scored more, then for sure Mumbai would have gone with a different game plan. However I think on this wicket 145 could have been defendable today,\u201d said Dhoni.<\/p>\n<p>Man of the moment Richard Levi meanwhile was happy with his performance against CSK. \u201cHope I continue winning matches for MI. It has been a good start for me and I would like to continue scoring runs for my team. It was a pleasure batting along with Sachin Tendulkar. To it the crowd was fantastic and atmosphere electrifying,\u201d said Levi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Chennai: <\/strong>Quite happy with the win against Chennai Super Kings in the inaugural match of the Indian Premier League, Mumbai Indians skipper Harbhajan Singh said that the victory was made possible due to the all-round performace of his players on the field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[661,876,660,559,1249,1247,556],"class_list":["post-4346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-isn-front-stories","tag-chennai-super-kings","tag-harbhajan-singh","tag-indian-premier-league","tag-ms-dhoni","tag-mumbai-indians","tag-richard-levi","tag-sachin-tendulkar"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Dhoni\u2019s run out saved us 40 odd runs to chase: Harbhajan - IndianSportsNews.com - Latest Updated Sports News &amp;
