Sachin Tendulkar said Mumbai Indians' batting order needs to buck up if they are to win matches in the Indian Premier League after going down by nine wickets to Royal Challengers Bangalore yesterday.

Mumbai Indians recovered from a shaky start thanks to half-centuries from Sanath Jayasuriya and Dwayne Bravo that saw them post 149 for four in their 20 overs. In response, Jacques Kallis (69) and Robin Uthappa (66) helped Royal Challengers cruise to a nine-wicket victory with 11 balls to spare.
