Chennai Super Kings thrashed the Deccan Chargers in the 29th match of IPL T20 season 2. Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and decided to bat. Most of the Chennai batsmen cleared the boundary ropes easily and Chennai Super Kings reached 178/3 in 20 overs with prominent contributions from Matthew Hayden (43 off 26 balls), Mahendra Singh Dhoni (58 off 37 balls), Suresh Raina (32 off 19 balls) and Murali Vijay (31 off 33 balls). Deccan Chargers kept losing on wickets when they came to bat and even a cameo by Dwayne Smith (49 off 23 balls) could not save them from defeat. The Deccan Chargers were bundled out for only 100 runs in 14.4 overs. Shadab Jakati was the pick of the bowlers with 4 wickets for 22 runs while Muttiah Muralidaran and Albie Morkel bagged 2 wickets each. Dhoni was awarded the Man of the Match for his brilliant knock.

Deccan Chargers were regarded the underdogs as they were at the last place in IPL T20 season 1 points tally. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians is regarded as one of the best teams of IPL 2 with a great bowling and batting combination. Adam Gilchrist won the toss and decided to bat. Hershelle Gibbs (58 off 44 balls), Dwayne Smith (35 off 22 balls) and Adam Gilchrist (35 off 20 balls) guided Deccan Chargers to a competitive total of 168/9 in their 20 overs. Lasith Malinga and Dwayne Bravo were good with the ball with 3 for 19 and 3 for 34 respectively. Mumbai Indians started off well after initial hiccup of Jayasuriya’s wicket with Sachin Tendulkar (36 off 27 balls) and J P Duminy (47 off 40 balls) playing brilliantly. But yet again the strategy break proved to be damaging and Sachin got out soon after after which the required run rate kept on increasing. The middle order could not hold for long and instead of great effort by some of the batsmen, Mumbai Indians could only score 156/7 in their 20 overs. Pragyan Ojha from the Deccan Chargers was adjudged the Man of the Match for his spell of 4 wickets for 21 runs.
