Result – Bangalore Royal Challengers won by 7 wickets


Delhi Daredevils Innings

Delhi Daredevils won the toss and elected to bat first. Delhi Daredevils would have never thought of such a disastrous start as they lost 2 wickets in the very first over. This brought them on backfoot and the normal aggression was lacking in the batting of other batsmen. AB de Villers and Karthik tried to bring the innings back to normal and helped Delhi Daredevils to score a respectable total. Nagar and Mahroof also contributed to the total of 134/7 in 20 overs.

FOW:*V Sehwag (1-1, 0.3), M Manhas (1-2, 0.5), G Gambhir (37-3, 6), AB de Villiers (65-4, 10.3), AB McDonald (70-5, 11.3), Y Nagar (109-6, 16.5), D Karthik (114-7, 17.5)

Bangalore Royal Challengers Innings
Chasing the moderate target of 135, Bangalore Royal Challengers lost the first wicket in first over of the innings and it looked Bangalore Royal Challengers will be in some sort of problem chasing this small total too. But then Bangalore Royal Challengers batsmen Kallis and Dravid bounced back and took the team to 54/1 in 10 overs. Dravid was the one to got out after scoring 38 runs but his innings got Bangalore Royal Challengers out of trouble. Taylor came to the center after Dravid’s wicket and he just smashed the bowl for 3 sixes. His camero of 23 in just 12 balls made the target well in reach. Kallis along with Boucher took Bangalore Royal Challengers to a convincing victory by 7 wickets. Kallis remained unbeaten on 58 runs off 56 balls.

FOW:R Uthappa (2-1, 1), R Dravid (72-2, 12.3), R Taylor (101-3, 14.5)
