Cricket Fever

P Singh from Deccan Chargers scalped 4 wickets for 22 runs in 3.4 overs to send Kolkata Knight Riders Struggling to finish with 101 runs with 2 balls remining in his first match at IPL 2009.

RP has removed the danger man Brendan McCullum in his very first ball. Chris Gayle who got a 4 and a 6 against RP fell for him, thanks to DC captain Adam Gilchrist who made the field change in time to send gayle packing. Fidel Edwards is another pick of the bowlers whose spell really put KKR under great pressure. Edwards gave just 4 runs in 6 overs with a maiden, certainly something very peculiar to be seen at twenty twenty format.
