Sunday was both a disappointment and a triumphant day for IPL with two matches going exactly opposite way as predicted. After all that is all a T-20 format of game is all about, unpredictability.
In the 4pm match, Mumbai had an average target set for the Crown holding, all winning team CSK led by the never failing captain MS Dhoni but this was not just his day. Wickets fell like a pack of cards. There was no way in heck they could even achieve a decent score. With the lowest season total for the whole IPL 6 and their personal worst, they lost to Mumbai Indians traling behind by 60 runs
Mumbai vs Chennai, 49th Match, Mumbai
Chennai: 79-all out (15.2 Ovs)
Mumbai: 139/5 (20.0 Ovs)
Mumbai won by 60 runs
At 8pm Pune chose the willow and made an impressive score of 178 losing only four wickets by the end of the day but Rajasthan proved to be fatal for the underdogs who showed them where they belonged. With a ball to spare, they won the game in style.
Rajasthan vs Pune, 50th Match, Jaipur
Rajasthan: 182/5 (19.5 Ovs)
Pune: 178/4 (20.0 Ovs)
Rajasthan won by 5 wkts
Punjab vs Bangalore, 51st Match, Mohali
The game at Mohali is being predicted in favor of Ben"Gayle"uru for the obvious reasons but does Punjab have tricks up its sleeve or will there be some miracles that work and get the danger guy out of the field before he causes any damage? We will have to wait and see.
