Hi friends
,
I think you would have seen the match which took place in Chennai.It was an exciting match between two heavy weights.Royal Challengers were under control for nearly 38 overs.There were two turning points in the match.The first turning point was that they lost six wickets towards the end of their innings which cost them.
The final turning point was Kohli
bowling the 19TH over where Albie was taking strike.
He got smashed all over the ground.
It brought CSK back in the game.These two turning points caused RCB.
It has brought the excitement back to this year's IPL.Is this the best ever chase in the history of IPL or T20 ?

Apparently this is the second highest chase in the IPL T20. Also, I think the Australian chase against Pakistan when Hussey scored 24 odd runs in the final run was probably a bit more dramatic than this one. In the IPL, I remember one match in which Dhoni hit the last two balls from Kings XI Punjab for sixes to win the match at Dharmashala.
Cheers!

Hi Ram,
You are right.The Australian chase was also one of the mind blowing attacks T20.Mike Hussey smashed 24 runs in a unbelievable chase.Dhoni's chase was superb.It was simply the best.He smashed two sixes with his mighty power.These are one of the best chases.Hope IPL gets more exciting this year.

I think this IPL is pretty interesting already. The teams seem to be more competitive and this is clearly seen by the number of upsets this season. Yesterday, CSK was beaten by Pune Warriors. So it is really going to be an interesting IPL this season.
Cheers!

Hi Devan,
Everyone thought that it was really an exciting thriller between the two teams.Both teams played out of their skin till the very end.The turning point was in the 19th over.Kohli was smashed by Morkel all over the ground.He hit 28 runs in that over.Vettori should be angry with himself.He failed in preserving his main bowlers quota.It was really a poor decision.RCB continue to do the same so far.

Woowwwww!! Whatttaaaa matchhh...!!! Tension all the way to the last ball of the last over!! This match has truly brought the excitement back into IPL. Loved it...
I would totally agree wth u. the 18th Over when Kohli got slammed all over the cricket ground by ALBIE MORKEL was a major turning point of the match. I think this was the best run chase ever in IPL history.. Can u imagine trying to chase 206 in 20 overs - 10 runs per over!!! Wowww!?!?
What was the captain & coach of RCB thinking?? Damn good match, though!!! Lets hope there are more matches like this in IPL 5...

Hi PJHA,
It was a nail
biting game.Both sides gave their best to win the game.CSK were desperate for a win.They got the win and now they could carry the momentum to their next match.Vettori
messed up by giving the ball to Kohli in the 19TH over.He should have reserved the last two overs for his best bowlers,but instead he went on the opposite way.It was a very close match.Bravo,Morkel,Dhoni and Jadeja played a great role in the chase.Hope there will be more and more thrills
in the upcoming matches.

I think this is the second highest run chase in the IPL history. morkal was the real hero of this match. but one thing went unnoticed is the master bowling from the great bowler muralidharan. he bowled 4 overs for around 21 odd runs and took 3 wickets. He again proved what he is and what he can do. He also took a stunning catch on his own bowling.

Hi Rock,
Yeah,it was the second highest chase in the IPL history.Morkel brought the match back to excitement in the 19TH over.It gave hope for the CSK.It is due to Vettori's captaincy.Kohli was given the 19TH over by Vettori.He should have reserved the over for Murali.Murali bowled very well and took a superb catch.He kept RCB in the game.The 19TH over was the game changer.Really Morkel could even have smashed Murali over.
