IPL 2: Match 5: CSK vs RCB





The fourth match of the IPL was between Chennai Superb Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore.Royals where a confident side beating the last time champions Rajasthan Royals comfortably. M.S.Dhoni won the toss and elected to bat.the plan was to score sum huge total and put the pressure on the opposition.That is what they exactly did they scored 179/5 in the allotted 20 overs.Thanks to some lusty blows by Mathew Hayden and the little Parthiv Patel at the start of the innings.

Chasing 180 at 9 runs per overs is always a difficult task and some early wickets reduced RCB to 49/4.then it was just a catch up game.While playing a T20 game never you can succed if you go for the catch up game.Dravid played well for his 20 and Kallis for his 24.Apart from them the rest of the team looked totally out of shape.RCB where all out for 87.Some great bowling by Muralitharan was the main reason for that.
