Vadodara: Skipper Aditya Tare smashed a quickfire 79 while Ajinkya Rahane returned to form with a fluent 78 as Mumbai beat Baroda by six runs in a high-scoring West Zone match of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Twenty20 tournament, here yesterday.

Mumbai first rode on Rahane and Tare's exploits with the bat to post 211-3 and then restricted an equally potent Baroda to 205-8 to register a narrow win in the opener.
