Pune Warriors needed just two wins to get into complacent mode. Ganguly’s preference of Ryder over Tamim Iqbal has been raising questions. After today’s poor performance, Ryder should give way to Tamim. Pune Warriors were bowled out at Mohali for 115 runs, with Mascarenhas grabbing 5-wkt haul. Kings XI completed the formalities with IPLs best batsman Shaun Marsh scoring an unbeaten half-century.
