<p>He was gunning for Sachin Tendulkar's wicket ever since Highveld Lions were drawn to play Mumbai Indians in the Champions League Twenty20 and so thrilled was little-known spinner Aaron Phangiso after getting the prized scalp that he remained up all night to celebrate.<br /><br /></p>.<p>Lions defeated the defending champions by eight wickets with seven balls to spare last night. Aaron's lone contribution to his team's winning cause was dismissing Tendulkar for a mere 16.<br /><br />The victory dance that followed the dismissal showed what it meant for the hardly-known Aaron to dismiss the revered Indian veteran.<br /><br />"I enjoyed that wicket especially being one the greatest batsman in the world, Sachin Tendulkar; I enjoyed that a lot," Aaron said after the match.<br /><br />"Celebration is definitely going to continue for me. We are going to celebrate. It is a big game for us, and a big win.<br /><br />"No, I am not going to sleep. I am just going to enjoy this moment," he added.<br />Asked what was going through his mind when Tendulkar was at the crease, Aaron said he just wanted to come up with some of his best bowling against celebrated veteran. <br /><br />"It is one of those moments, for which you have been preparing, knowing that we are playing against the Mumbai Indians. I was prepared and I just tried to do what I do best and then hoped to do well," Aaron said.<br /><br />"I have just been doing the normal stuff. Bowling in the nets and bowling to our players that's all that I have been doing. I have just been working on my line and length that's what I have been working on," he added.<br /><br />Meanwhile, losing team's pacer Lasith Malinga said the Lions batted extremely well to clinch the game.<br /><br />"I think we got to bowl on a good wicket. The new ball swung around a bit but after that it didn't do much. We were always thinking about bowling a good line and length.<br /><br />"They were batting well but sometimes we didn't bowl that well. I think that is the reason we couldn't win," he said.<br /><br />Asked if being the defending champions has created pressure on Mumbai, Malinga said, "Not much. We don't think about what happened in the IPL or CLT20 2011."<br /><br />"We just think about one game at a time. We don't have any pressure of being defending champions on our mind. We just want to play one game at a time," he added.</p>
