Saturday, April 3, 2010 0 comments

In week-three of the league there were a few upsets and turnarounds but Mumbai remained at top and Punjab at bottom with their only super-over win in week-2.

  • Chennai Superking made a remarkable comeback after beating RCB and RR in their home turf. Murali Vijay came to the party at right time.
  • All izz bad for Kings XI, even Jayawardane’s temporary captaincy could not change their fortune. Their strike bowler of previous season Brett Lee is out of shape from every angle.
  • Mumbai continued their juggernaut and still remained the only team to be bowled out in the competition.
  • Prince of Kolkata came back to his form of yesteryears as see at his best against Deccan’s “left arm spinner” Pragyan Ojha.
  • Match of week was the close match between Kings XI and Mumbai. In which Punjab gave too many runs in the penultimate over.
  • One of the expensive players Kevin Pietersen of RCB is back and proved his price by match winning knock against Kings XI.
  • Knock of the week was by Murali Vijay and the other best knock was century by David Warner. Who in the subsequent match made sure to contribute in the field also by being responsible for five dismissals ( 4 catches and 1 direct-hit runout).
  • All the teams are now in full strength with the conclusion of Aus-NZ series. And needless to stay every team is in spot of bother that whom to select for the slots of four international players.
