Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma could not hide his joy after pulling off a stunning victory.

"It's an unbelievable feeling, honestly. People wrote us off after those first five games. To come here at the end of day and see Mumbai Indians at No 4 is simply amazing. We really played some good cricket and deserve to be in the top four. Since we came back to India we have played nine games and lost only two and won seven. It shows we are a consistent team," Sharma said.
