in 2010, the bcci decided to expel kings xi punjab and rajasthan royals from the ipl. the expulsion baffled captain shane warne who stated that he suspected that there might be some foul play and that the bcci might possess some ulterior motives. the rajasthan royals however filed an appeal against the decision and the two parties went to the mumbai high court to decide the mumbai high-court adjourned that case until 29 october 2010. both parties then agreed to adjourn the case again to 15 november because they didn't want it to coincide with diwali celebrations from 1 to 14 november later it was announced by the royals that they told the bombay high court that they would be negotiating with an arbitrator to see if they could reconcile with the ipl the arbitrator announced that while the investigation was ongoing the royals would remain a part of the ipl for six-weeks and the bcci would not be allowed to change rules which might go against the royals. the six-week period included the player auction in which rajasthan royals participated. after this the bombay high court rejected the appeals of the bcci against keeping the rajasthan royals in the ipl for six-weeks while the case was sorted out. it was estimated because of the losses in court cases and damaging reputation the bcci decided not to pursue any further legal action against royals' or kings xi punjab and announced they decided to keep them in the ipl.

with one game left to play they were fifth in the table with 12 points. in the last league-stage match of the season against rajasthan royals who were fourth in the league table with 14 points they needed to win by a big margin so as to leapfrog the opponent into the fourth spot and claim the play-offs spot too. rajasthan royals set the target of 190 runs but mumbai indians had to reach the target in 14.3 overs in order to improve the net run rate and claim the fourth position in the table but they just managed a tie with the rajasthan royals in 14.3 overs. so the mumbai indians needed a boundary off the next ball to push rajasthan royals below and claim that fourth spot and aditya tare hit a six to a full toss bowled by james faulkner. due to that six they reached the play-offs of ipl but lost against the chennai super kings in the eliminator which ended their ipl 2014 campaign.
