Disappointed to lose in the final says Smith

May 22 (CRICKETNMORE) - Mumbai Indians beat Rising Pune Supergiant by 1 run in the final to clinch their third IPL title on Sunday night. Pune's Captain Steve Smith was bit disappointed with this loss but gives complete credit to Mumbai for the stunning victory in the final.

Speaking at the presentation ceremony, he said, "It is always nice when you are winning and getting to the final, but it's a bit disappointing to lose in the final. It's a hard one to swallow. I am proud of the way the boys played throughout the season."

Commenting on the final match, he said, "A lot of credit should go to Mumbai as well. 130 was an under-par score, but they fought well. They bowled beautifully. I thought Johnson was magnificent.
