Dhawan was really knocking the ball well and helped the
Chargers to reach 35 in 5 overs.Sangakara tried to be over ambitious and had
his stumps knocked over by Balaji for a mere 12 Runs ,The hit duo of Parthiv Patel
and Dhawan were together and they took the Chargers past 80 in the 12th
over.ust when Deccan Chargers were looking to launch their innings
,Parthiv was run out for 23.
Dhawan fell soon after scoring his 50 .There was no momentum provided to the
Chargers innings in the last 5 overs and they could manage a mere 126/7 in 20
vers. Lee and Narine were the pick of the bowlers
and gained two wickets each.
Deccan Chargers knew that they haven’t put enough runs on
the board and were staring at their 5th defeat in this IPL.KKR did not
have a good start as they lost McCulum early in the 3rd over and Steyn was the man who did it again for Deccan Chargers. Gambhir
was
playing aggressively and Bisla too was looking good .But Deccan Chargers kept
on taking at regular intervals .The KKR side were 20 of the last three overs
surely ,they had made a mess of the run chase and it required matured knock of 30 by Manoj Tiwary to guide
them home to Victory in 19 overs.
KKR registered their Fourth Victory of the season and are
currently third in the table behind Delhi and Rajasthan .Deccan Chargers are
all but out of the tournament with five loses in as
many games .They need to win at least 9 out of their remaining 11 games
and that seems too tough a challenge for
any team in IPL 5 however strong the side may be.
Score :
Deccan Chargers -126/7 [20].
Dhawan-50
Parthiv-23
Lee-2/22 [M.O.M]
KKR-127/5 [19]
Tiwary-30*
Gambir-30
Steyn-2/24
