Match 6 :DLF IPL Its the Gayle and McCullum show for KKR.

Match 6 of the DLF IPL:
Kings 11 Punjab had their moments.After loosing an early wicket Irfan Pathan who seems a much better batsmen than bowler did do good for their cause.But KKR kept taking wickets at crucial intervals.
Well you can love him,you can hate him but you cannot ignore the prince of Calcutta.With two wickets in one over and match figures of 4 overs 24 runs for 2 wickets Sourav Ganguly just proved us all wrong when people had started to write him off.
After the 10 overs and into the strategy break Kings 11 Punjab were 67/3 of 10 overs.

After the break Yuvraj Singh played really well with those flamboyant super sixes.His wicket was the most important wicket of the day when you look at the result.With him finding his feet a score of 200 was looming over KKR.
Towards the end of the match it was Mahela Jayawardenas late flurry that got them to a score of 158/6 which seemed power for the course.

Then came the Knights:
Brendom Mccullum and Chris Gayle started causiously and Karan Goel dropped a sitter of Gayle which is another turning point of the match.Like all good players Gayle took it in his stride and phew Irfan Pathan and the others were sent chasing Leather all over Kingsmead Durban.

Within the first 5 overs Kolkata Knight Riders had screamed past the 50 mark and were 76/1 in 7.2 overs when rain interrupted play and hasnt stopped since for the next match.

SRK expressed his gratitude to Duckworth and Lewis and wished he could meet them.He was extremely tensed and being a good actor in emotional movies he too could not control the anxiety and tension that was so evident on his brow.

It seems KKR might simply be the best team one day if their openers and Ganguly get going or disasterous if they loose their first three wickets.It was a change in strategy with Ganguly slated to come 2 down.Early days though but the day all three get going it will be a treat to all our eyes.

As for the Kings from Punjab ,all the pep talk and eye candy in the form of Priety Zinta wont do as they seem to have a really weak bowling line up without Brett Lee ,Shreesanth.

The cut-off time for the Mumbai Indians v Rajasthan Royals match is 10:45 pm IST and if rain doesnt stop we wont have a 5 over a side match.I dunno but if I were in either team I wouldnt be gearing up for that small a match.
