CSK vs Chargers, 16th match at Durban, IPL, Apr 27 2009 - Ball by Ball Commentary

and Deccan have doubled their points tally from last year, short and wide and cut over point, easy win despite a last-over finish

full, outside off, and an easy single to long-off

and Gibbs has planned it perfectly, he knew a slower ball was coming along, he makes room, waits and slogs it into the leg side, clearing the short square boundary, what a knock

makes room, follows him with a yorker, just a single

goes for the scoop again, it's a length delivery, but he misses, and is saved from the lbw because it hits him outside the line of off

yorker, follows a Gibbs who wants to make room, he gets an inside edge, the ball goes slowly towards dee backward square, and they hurry through for two, good running

another fulltoss, knee high, and played towards midwicket for one

good shot, length ball, outside off, Azhar makes room, and hits through extra cover, not enough power, but two taken

Dhoni was signalling for slower behind Azhar's back, slower ball it is, Azhar goes for the paddle over short fine, but misses, yet gets a leg-bye

shapes up for the scoop again, slower delivery, so he changes the shot and plays with an open face towards third man

full, played to long-on, Axhar puts pressure calling for two, results ina fumble, and an easy two

slower ball, just outside off, and beats Gibbs's dab aimed at thirdman

cool Gibbs coolly hits a four, fulltoss on the pads, he bends a bit, scoops it, actually flicks it, over short fine, and it bounces just inside the ropes

short of a length, angling in, easy single to square leg

slower ball, just outside off, too full, and an easy single to wide of point

yorker on the leg stump, played straight to midwicket

yorker outside off, Gibbs gets an inside edge, and Dhoni dives to his left to save three

full outside off, worked into the off side for a single

high fulltoss again, Gibbs plays it down to long-on to get a single, what's with tactics of bowling high fulltosses?

worst delivery possible, Gibbs steps out, and another fulltoss tried, a beamer, beats Dhoni too, five runs, no ball

fulltoss, high, and Raina has almsot worked the magic, played straight to short cover, and Gibbs has just taken two steps backing up, but Raina swoops, slides and hits direct. Gibbs has just made it, by one split frame, and gets an overthrow
