In IPL T20 season 1, Deccan Chargers were placed at the last position in the points tally while Rajasthan Royals bagged the IPL title. But in IPL T20 season 2 Deccan Chargers won all its initial matches while Rajasthan Royals had just lost quite a few of the matches initially. So, the contest was going to be very interesting as expected. Adam Gilchrist won the toss and decided to bat. With useful contributions from Adam Gilchrist (39 off 35 balls), Rohit Sharma (38 off 32 balls) and Tirumalsetti Suman (41 off 32 balls), Deccan Chargers reached 141/5 in 20 overs. Shane Harwood did well for the Royals with the ball playing his first IPL match and he took 2 wickets for 25 runs. Rajasthan Royals had a terrible start as three of its top order batsmen got out on ducks. But then some brilliant knocking by Abhishek Raut (36 off 23 balls), Lee Carseldine (39 off 32 balls), Yusuf Pathan (24 off 14 balls) and Shane Warne (21 off 17 balls) helped Rajasthan Royals reach the target in 19.4 overs. Yusuf Pathan bagged yet another Man of the Match due to his quickfire 24 off 14 balls and his economical bowling figures of 1 wicket for 19 runs in 4 overs.
