Indian Premier League - 31st match

Kings XI Punjab v Royal Challengers Bangalore

Royal Challengers Bangalore won by 6 wickets (with 5 balls remaining)

Twenty20 match | 2009/10 season
Played at Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, Mohali, Chandigarh
2 April 2010 - day/night (20-over match)


Kings XI Punjab innings (20 overs maximum)		R	B	4s	6s	SR
SE Marsh	c Dravid b Vinay Kumar	2	9	0	0	22.22
1.4 and VK strikes early, what a bowling combination change! the effort ball, quicker than his three previous deliveries, pitches middle and off and makes him play and leaves him enough to take the edge, and Dravid at wide slip is placed perfectly for it 3/1
MS Bisla	b Kumble	28	26	4	0	107.69
8.6 Man wins the Man v Boy game! This time Bisla looks to scoop Kumble (seriously?) over short fine, and leaves the stumps exposed, and Kumble nails the off stick with a straight delivery 66/2
KC Sangakkara*†	c Kallis b Steyn	45	27	8	0	166.66
11.1 soft end to a dangerous-looking innings, Sanga picks a short ball, pulls it nicely but also picks out Kallis at deep square leg 84/3
RS Bopara	not out	42	33	3	0	127.27

Yuvraj Singh	c White b Kallis	36	20	3	2	180.00
17.4 don't tell me this was a plan! another full toss on the pads and he has timed it sweetly straight down deep midwicket's throat. Big wicket, Yuvraj could have taken this innings to an imposing total 149/4
IK Pathan	run out (Pandey/†Uthappa)	16	5	2	1	320.00
19.5 from Kumar, Bopara wants Irfan on strike and risks a second that is not on as it has gone straight to long-on, and Pandey's flat throw is right by the stumps and a new man now will face the last ball 180/5
B Lee	not out	1	1	0	0	100.00

Extras	(b 2, lb 1, w 7, nb 1)	11

Total	(5 wickets; 20 overs)	181	(9.05 runs per over)

R Vinay Kumar	3	0	24	1	8.00
1.4 to Marsh, and VK strikes early, what a bowling combination change! the effort ball, quicker than his three previous deliveries, pitches middle and off and makes him play and leaves him enough to take the edge, and Dravid at wide slip is placed perfectly for it 3/1
DW Steyn	4	0	31	1	7.75	(1w)

Royal Challengers Bangalore innings (target: 182 runs from 20 overs)		R	B	4s	6s	SR
MK Pandey	run out (Bipul Sharma)	29	25	3	0	116.00
6.6 Bipul Sharma to Pietersen, and immediately there is action! KP drills a short ball back at Sharma who misses the catch but gets a deflection onto the non-striker's stumps to find Pandey backing up and not back in. Freak dismissal 54/2
JH Kallis	c †Bisla b Srivastava	9	10	1	0	90.00
4.1 out first ball, Kallis looks for the big booming drive through the off side, ends up going too hard and edges a straight angling delivery 28/1
KP Pietersen	not out	66	44	7	1	150.00

V Kohli	c Pathan b Bipul Sharma	42	26	4	1	161.53
15.3 another full toss claims a wicket! could be a big wicket! Kohli is looking to send this full toss to Chandigarh but gets the toe end straight to Irfan at deep midwicket 130/3
RV Uthappa†	c †Bisla b Pathan	22	8	1	2	275.00
17.6 and finally somebody has held onto a catch! Uthappa walks down the wicket to send this flying down the ground again, but gets a toe edge through to Bisla. Too late for Punjab? 170/4
