The overall result of IPL to is a success.The beginning was not so good when compared to IPL 2008 when Mucullum smashed the RCB bowling part.This was different we had low scoring games and spinners had a major part to play and the runs scored in the 20 overs was drastically less when compared to last year.

Nevertheless the matches were very interesting and we witnessed some very close encounters and one match between the Rajasthan Royals and the Kolkata Knight Riders went to become a tie and we had the first Superb Over.The team which looked totally out of socks was the KKR team,but we cannot write them off.Sice the last year table had Deccan and RCB at the bottom of the table.This year those both where the teams which faced each other in the final and DECCAN CHARGES emerged as winners.

Anil Kumble has been declared the new captain of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).Kevin Pieterson the RCB captain who has to turn back to national duty for the Ashes has left the RCB team.So the RCB team was in search of a new captain.The strong contenders for the race were

1) Kallis

2) Rahul Dravid

3) Anil Kumble

Since Kallis is not in the best of the form and Rahul Dravid has gone to India to see his wife who is about to conceive her second baby.Rahul Dravid has not given the return of his exact date hence Anil Kumble has been named the captain of RCB for IPL 2.

Anil Kumble was preferred against Kallis becuase of the respect that Kumble commands from this RCB team and his in a great form with the ball.In the opening match he scalped 5/5 against Rajasthan Royals to tame the Rajasthan Royals.
