Rampaul uproots off stump, and takes off on a run as Chinnaswamy loses its head, Rohrer misses the heave to leg, Rampaul hits with a full delivery
Daredevils vs RCB, 21st match at Bengaluru, IPL, Apr 16 2013 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Match tied (RCB won the one-over eliminator)
Phew. That does it for the night. Good bye
Virat Kohli is the Man of the Match.
Virat Kohli: "Fourth last-ball finish for us, our time had to come in the Super Over i guess, but we should have won with an over to spare. Great comeback by DD and great hits by AB to get us back into the game. We needed 26 off 28 when AB got run out and I didnt get strike after that. I would have been really angry if we had lost today. Ravi bowled a great over to pull us back. It was a brilliant effort by the bowlers."
Mahela Jayawardene: "We are getting there. Four overs to go we were not in, couple of crucial wickets, we came back. In the super over, the first three-four balls were alright. That shows the character of the team, the guys are fighting, we need to handle those crucial situations better."
Hang on for the presentation
RCB end on the happier side of a Super Over this time, after their loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad. Their collapse lends more credence to those saying their batting starts and ends with Gayle, AB and Kohli. Two of their four wins now have come without Gayle firing, though, and that is a start towards gaining some balance
Fifth successive losses for Delhi now, they were all but out of this match before RCB handed them a lifeline and yanked it back late
AB de Villiers says he felt responsible for starting the collapse and was lucky to get back in the Super Over with those two sixes. Also credits Rampaul for delivering with the ball
Kohli clenches his fists and screams, a lot better than what he was uttering after getting out earlier
Vaaalpaiyan: "Just 2 seasons before, Sehwag would ve been automatic choice for super over in any team across IPL.. regardless of win or loss its painful to see Sehwag stays in dug-out during super over.."
he's picked out square leg this time, precious, just a single conceded off a full toss
holy moly, that has sailed over deep bacckward square leg for six, he's walked across to off and lifted a length delivery from there, no big swing, just a paddle flick
misses now, he misses, a low full toss, Irfan tries to go square on leg again, it eludes him just outside off
and IKP connects first ball, length on middle and off, and Irfan has swung it over square leg
Delhi trust in IK Pathan
Warner gone first ball, makes room to a back of a length ball and cuts, straight to Gayle at backward point, what a start for RCB
Right, Kohli and Jennings have a chat with the umpires, Kohli has the ball and hands it to Ravi Rampaul. No Vinay Kumar for RCB this time. Warner, and Sehwag Ben Rohrer it will be for Delhi
and one more, AB revives RCB in the Super Over with successive sixes, Umesh back of a length now and AB's slammed that over deep midwicket again, Kohli is pumped up in the dugout
AB connects big this time, on the knee to the express bowler, who bowls it on a good length, and AB slogs it several metres o the crowd over deep midwicket
Umesh hits the blockhole this time, outside off, and even AB cannot connect
cannot get under this full delivery, he's powered it flat on the bounce to long off
AB goes across to a high full toss but he can;t get it wide enough of deep midwicket
full and around the stumps, Gayle flays it down to long on
Gayle and AB DV walk out. Chinnaswamy on its feet. Umesh to bowl the Super Over. Gayle to face
Over 20 • RCB 152/7
Match tied (RCB won the one-over eliminator)
