Punjab and Hyderabad win comfortably !

Sehwag out means half the battle lost. He was taken by Pathan and Lee took Dhawan, VRV Singh took 3-29 and the Dare Devils could only muster 158/8. Manoj Tiwari scored 39 . The Kings XI game plan worked well.


Simon Katich continued his great form with the bat. He scored 75 and got Man of the Match Award. Yuvraj was at his striking best ( 40 not out ) and he got a hug from Preity Zinta.

In the other match Laxman won the toss and fielded. The Mumbai Indians were 27/3. Shaun Pollock scored 31 and Abhishek Nair scored 34, blasting 3 sixes in the process.

The Deccan Chargers wanted 155 runs and they got it in style. Gilly blasted 10 sixes and nine fours in his 109 no and Laxman gave solid support in the massive score of 155 for none. This is the greatest partnership ever in the IPL. The massive crowd of 50 K had got their money's worth, as they saw one of the greatest innings in T20 from Gilchrist.
