What a great finish we have had at the Supersport,Centurion...Full marks for entertainment and pressure.The Punjab Kings really played their heart out to reach somewhere near the SuperKings's total with a run-rate as high as 11.
At one stage it was all Punjab.They were nearly there.But they lost their way,lost their momentum in the last 2 overs of the game,giving an opportunity for the SuperKings to bounce back and grab a 12 run win over the Punjab Kings.
The Turn-around ::
2-0-8-0 ... The young man with those bowling figures,Suresh Raina was the super hero Yesterday night.The part-timer kept his line simple and hit the right areas, has won it for the SuperKings.He conceded just 8 runs of his 2 overs when all the bowlers were going for atleast 10 runs in an over,is the turning point of the game.
An Intellectual Dhoni ::
Dhoni has always been a thinking captain on the field.When Murali and Jakati went for more runs,he was too quick to understand the wicket had nothing for the spinners.And he was brave enough to try Raina(a part-timer) leaving back Jakati(a specialist spinner).I would say this is one of the finest moves,which fetched SuperKings their Victory.
Anyways.. the SuperKings are going Great Guns...and no stopping them.
4th win in a row clinched !! Great Job boys !!
