Morkel's attack on Virat Kohli in the 19th over of the match between CSK and RCB was the most brutal T20 attack that I remember. Smashing 28 runs off the over, that brought CSK from nowhere back in the match and they finally one in the final over. The over went like this:
4, 6, 4, 6, 2, 6
Have you seen a more brutal over in a T20 chase?
Cheers!

Hi Ram,
Yes,I think you are right.This must be one of the most brutal attacks in T20 history.I don't think there was such a brutal attack in T20 history.I could remember Yuvraj Singh hitting six sixes against England.It was also a brutal attack.Albie Morkel's 7 ball
28 runs brought CSK back into the match. It was a great victory for CSK and it would bring back their momentum .It has brought the excitement back to IPL-5.
I could remember Chris Gayle smashing against Parameshwaran when RCB faced against Kochi last year.It was also one of the brutal attacks in IPL.
All is well that ends well.CSK began the chase with a good start and finished off it in their style with a 
boundary.

Not just in a chase, I think one of the most brutal period. Vettori and Kohli showed the frustration on their faces. Good observation though. I believe Vettori will think a lot before giving the ball to Virat again

I think Kohli is not a very good depth bowler and most probably should be used earlier rather than at the end of the match. I think the captain missed a trick by not bowling the sixth and seventh bowler early part of the match and having less option at the end of the match. I think it was one of the classic batting of Morkel in that particular over.

Mortkel attack on Kohli plundering 28 runs of one over was indeed one of the brutal attacks by the batsman to a bowler but not the only one. First and foremost Yuvraj Singh who plundered 36 runs hitting six sixes of one Broad's over. This over also reminded me the drubbing of Waqar Younis by Ajay Jadeja in World cup semi finals at Bangalore if I remember correctly. He too belted the great Waqar for 28 runs in one over.

I don't remember in the IPL that anyone had gone so brutal in one over and in chasing.I remember one instance in which India was against England and Yuvraj hit 6 sixes in a over in the T20 world cup 2007.In todays match it was the over which turned drastically towards the chennai.Albie is a man of power as you would have seen him hit 2 of the sixes very low and the bowler was also a part timer so it was a little easy to hit the ball.But in the recent time it is one over which I will remember for long time.
