After a busy schedule of two days , IPL given some rest to the
its viewers by organizing only one match today. The sizzling rain before match creates a suspicion among the viewers that it may be going to affect the enjoyment but the rain stopped and they get relief.After winning the toss DHONI elected to bat first and the two opener ,especially HAYDEN converts it in a right decision by making a blasting half century. Both openers were on fire and made 106 runs together in just ten overs. Before captain himself,of royal challengers provide twice

breakthrough in his very first over, it seems that the chennai

super kings are going to make a score more than 200.
After that RAINA , DHONI and FLINTOFF also made a

handful contribution to score to make it finally 179/5. The

most successful & economical bowler was the KEVIN

PIETERSEN with 1/14 in 3 overs.

In reply the start of ROYAL CHALLENGERS was not good

and they lost wicket of PRAVEEN KUMAR in very first over

when GONY bold him with a beautiful yorker. A partnership

was building after that early dismissal but it cannot go

beyond 40
runs when KALLIS given out lbw on delivery of his own

countrymen bowler MORKEL. After that every batsman

shown eagerness to return pavilion and wickets were falling

like cards. only DRAVID and KOHLI put some resistance

by putting 16 runs together. DRAVID was the last man to got
out and the challengers shown again performance like they

were playing in the IPL-I.
