CSK vs Wayamba, 9th Match, Group A at Centurion, Sep 15 2010 - Match Result

Well, now we have seen everything.. only one Sri Lankan has been smiling today and his smile just got wider! Murali draws Shalika out of the crease in a manner that would have done the pied piper proud. Dhoni does the rest. Game over.

slower ball, beautifully bowled outside off, 118 kph and the No. 11's almighty hoick makes no contact.

goes for the yorker and nearly cleans him up. Was just marginally wide of off stump, and the batsman was no where near it.. once again.

short again, but this one is on the leg stump line and he taps it down to square leg for one

another short ball, and Shalika moves away to the leg side looking for a cross-batted carve over covers... no contact.

bouncer wasted, he is not even close to getting close to the ball and just staggers away

length ball, would have been better driving, went for the pull and made no contact

another straighter one to finish a wonderful spell, Ashwin take a bow! Carrying on his IPL form here for Chennai.

seeya later Mr. Mendis! Ashwin draws him out with a flighter offering, Mendis is sucked in, does not make the pitch of the ball and misses. Dhoni is the king of minimalism behind the stumps. Collects and flicks away the bails with minimal fuss, with Mendis out of the crease.

short from ashwin and deft from Mendis. Goes back on the crease and late-cuts it delicately past Haydos at short third man

carrom ball, breaks away, but Shalika has probably faced it in the nets, from Herath. Plays it expertly, against the spin to square leg

straighter, works it with the spin to midwicket. Thinks of a single and changes his mind

offie to start with, pushes Shalika back into the crease. Defends to cover

Normal service resumes.. Bolly bangs it in short and Mendis plays his own version of the pull - the ungainly version - and misses

and now he makes contact, well done too.. Length from Bolly, Mendis prefers it to the shorter stuff, sets himself up and mows it straight over mid off

very short bouncer, gets big on Mendis who thinks of upper-cutting and play atleast a foot under the ball.. It was a nasty lifter this one

short ball, angling across and he swings with gay abandon. Not even close to connecting

another regulation length ball, Mendis is moving around the crease, but can't do much with this except defend back down the track

Hits the length that tail-enders don't like.. pushes him back and he does well to run it down to third man for one

Whoop! A measure of revenge, Mendis sets himself up and swings Murali with the spin into the midwicket stands
