The bull hooks up the toreros in the collosium ...



Mumbai Indians registered their first loss in the hands of the Deccan Chargers at the kingsmead.Winning the toss gilly had only one thing in his mind bat bat n bat.He with gibbs did exactly what his mind said.The south paw exploded as he scored a quick 35.Gibbs on the other hand was in no mood to dodge. He went in all attack mode and the duo made a thundorous effort of scoring 63 in just 7 overs.Gilchrist departed at this point,thanks to a timely bowling effort from bravo. Gibbs continued the tsunami of runs.He quickly reached his halfton. At 58 he was ran out, thanx to some obnoxious calling from Rao.Dwayne Smith was a suprise package as he supported gibbs by making a quick 35. All the other batsmen were beating the bushes and therefore it meant that the bulls were restricted to a score of 168. Mallinga was found breaking the legs(sorry stumps) of his counterparts with his accurate torpedo like yorker deliveries.He was a catapult that never missed the target. He took 3 out of the 11 bulls.Bravo put an inspired bowling performance of 3wickets.
Later the mumbai Indians felt their first punch as sanath was caught napping by RP.Sachin was seen in his youthfull bliss, He with the african wonder Duminy took the attack right back to the bulls dugout. They kept on scoring runs at a brisk pace, for a moment every one thought that the mumbai Indians had controlled the bull.It was the Strategic break that spoiled the weekend bash of the mumbaikars.Sachin(36) was dismissed by ohja when the team score was 86. J.P continued the good work.Soon he was also dismissed at 47.The chargers were at there full charge.They took wickets synchronously, When bravo(20) was dismissed it was all over for the mumbai indians.They fell short of the target.The whole of the deccan chargers team errupted like a valcano as they register a hatrick in the points table.
Gilly was inspirational.He made timely use of his bowlers.He suprised the mumbai indians by introducing rao & sharma to the bowling in the final overs.Edwards and RP were the pick of the bowlers at the chargers end. Personally Am a bit dissapointed that mumbai lost but am happy that the best team in the collosium won.
