The five-time Indian Premier League champions had won their second Champions League T20 title on this day 12 years ago, outclassing Rajasthan Royals in the final match. Interestingly, Mumbai Indians also had won the first of their five IPL titles that same year under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma.
October 6, 2013, will go down as one of the most memorable days for the Mumbai Indians for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it was on this very day that they had lifted the CLT20 (Champions League) title for a second time, beating fellow IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals by 33 runs in the final. Batting first, the Mumbai Indians scored 202/6 with Dwayne Smith hitting 44 runs off 39 balls and captain Rohit Sharma (33 off 14) and Glenn Maxwell (37 off 14) playing cameos. In response, Harbhajan Singh stood out as the best bowler for the Mumbai Indians with figures of 4/32 in his four overs as the Rajasthan Royals were bowled out for 169, despite Sanju Samson's 60 and Ajinkya Rahane's 65.
