Romario Shepherd's 10-ball 39 not out outmuscled Tristan Stubb's courageous 71 off 25 balls as Mumbai Indians ended its three-match losing streak in the Indian Premier League with a 29–run win against Delhi Capitals here on Sunday. Conceding as many as 51 runs in the last two overs proved catastrophic for Delhi Capitals, whose bowlers remained wayward and batters lacked the spunk in the initial overs to go after MI bowlers, even though Stubbs went ballistic to make 25-ball 71 not out. The right-handed Stubbs smacked as many as seven sixes and three fours but his effort could only reduce the margin of defeat for Delhi, who lost a flurry of wickets towards the end to finish at 205 for eight in reply to Mumbai Indians' 234 for five. Once again poor quality of domestic talent in DC set-up proved to be their undoing. Save Abhishek Porel, none of the other young uncapped Indians have measured up.

fish markets, you often see a vendor with a long fish with several diagonal cuts, but not detached from the spine. When she holds it up, the segments splay sideways like a fleshy Christmas decoration.

This style of cutting helps slide the flesh off the bones. Davidson notes that in Hong Kong, it is used for fish balls.
