Mumbai Indians summoned all their experience to turn a nervy night into their own, with an IPL title victory

Mumbai Indians players huddled together in celebration after Mitchell Johnson pulled off a sensational final over.

The RGI stadium in Hyderabad witnessed big celebrations as a two-time winner added another title to its trophy cabinet.
