Match 70 IPL 2013 – Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Chennai Super Kings
Date – Sat May 18
Time – 8:00 pm i.e 14:30 GMT | 20:00 IST
Venue – M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore
Toss – Chennai elected to field – Match Reduced to 8 overs due to rain
Result – Royal Challengers Bangalore won by 24 Runs

Today in the 70th match of IPL 2013, rain played a spoilsport and at one stage nervous RCB players were seen roaming all over the park. Captain Kohli and his team knew, if the match is abandoned, they will be out from Season 6 of IPL as Sunrisers will qualify for the 4th spot.

The prayers of RCB players and fans were finally answered as rain stopped but the match was reduced to a 8 over game.

Chennai Super Kings won the toss and elected to field first. Captain Kohli and Chris Gayle opened the innings for RCB and the duo were in no mood to forgive Chennai bowlers. RCB players knew this was a do or die situation and thus the enthusiasm and eagerness to perform was seen. The openers added 67 runs in just 5.2 overs before Gayle got out after scoring 28 off 13 which included 4 sixes. Captain Virat Kohli lead from front and remained unbeaten on 56 off 29 balls which included 6 fours and 4 sixes. Finally three fours in three balls by Moises Henriques helped Royal Challengers Bangalore post a good total of 106/2 in 8 overs.

Chasing 107 in 8 overs, Chennai Super Kings opened with Michael Hussey and Murali Vijay. Two wickets on consecutive balls by Zaheer Khan reduced CSK to 11/2 in 1.4 overs. Michael Hussey got out after scoring just 6 where as Suresh Raina got out on the very first ball he faced on a duck. Dwayne Bravo and Murali Vijay then took the score to 29 before Bravo got out after scoring just 11. Needing 78 more to win from 4, Murali Vijay hit few sixes but fell eventually after scoring 32 off 18 balls. The pressure of increasing run rate was too much and despite brilliant 24 off 10 balls by MS Dhoni, CSK could manage to score 82/6 and thus lost the match by 24 runs. With this win, all eyes are now on Sunday’s Sunrisers encounter as if Hyderbad wins that match, RCB will be knocked out of IPL 2013.

Today in the 69th match of IPL 2013, Mumbai Indians won the toss and invited Kings XI Punjab to bat first. Openers Adam Gilchrist and Mandeep Singh failed to give KXIP a good start and both were back in the pavilion by the 3rd over. KXIP scorecard was reading at 6/2 in 2.2 overs and they needed someone to shoulder the responsibility to take their team to a respective total. Azhar Mahmood and Shaun Marsh then played superbly and steadied KXIP’s innings. They both completed half centuries and took the score past 150. Shaun Marsh got out after scoring a brilliant 47 ball 63 where as Azhar Mahmood scored 80 in 44 balls which included 8 fours and 4 sixes. Finally 20 in 8 balls by Manan Vohra helped KXIP post a good total of 183/8 in 20 overs.

Chasing 184 to win, Mumbai Indians lost Glenn Maxwell on the third ball of the innings for a duck. Aditya Tare and Ambati Rayudu then took the score to 27 before Tare got out after scoring 12 ball 22. Captain Rohit Sharma and Rayudu then took the team score past 50. Rayudu was the next to fall when the team score was 62 and with his wicket, Mumbai Indians lost the scoring momentum and were reduced to 78/5 in 12 overs. Again a magical innings was needed from Pollard to take his team to a sensational victory but he got out after scoring 22 off 21 balls and with his wicket, it was curtain down for Mumbai. Finally Mumbai managed to score 133/9 in 20 overs and thus lost the match by a huge margin of 50 runs.

Despite performing so well today, KXIP have already been shown the door from the league and Mumbai have already qualified for the playoffs. KXIP’s skipper Adam Gilchrist was playing his last match in IPL and to every one’s surprise, he bowled and got the wicket of Harbhajan Singh on the very first ball he bowled in IPL.
