Another royal challenge ending up in another royal defeat. So what's new ? Well, there is something new ! And there is something old - old like gold. The new is the arrival of Shreevats Goswami ! Kudos to this bloke ! He looks a fine talent - with the bat, but more impressively, with the gloves. His keeping today was outstanding and was definitely one of the high points of today's game. The old of course is the glorious Anil Kumble ! What a fighting spell of superb leg-spin bowling that was ! If only he could have gotten Shikhar Dhawan - who I maintain was out - he could have conceivably helped Bangalore turn the game around even at that late stage !
Other than that, Misbah (Mr. T20, as I like to call him) finally lived up to his reputation. Well he kind of dawdled in the middle of the innings but what a finish he provided. Unfortunately the likes of White didn't quite support him and BRC ended up with a disappointing total yet again.
Well, a bit perversely, the Royal Challengers vs Deccan Chargers is going to be the big game to watch out for now - between two sides who just can't get anything right.
Revenge Battle Results
Gambhir v Steyn, Zaheer, Kallis - partial victory to Gambhir again, handled them pretty comfortably though did not quite humiliate them like last time
Sehwag v Zaheer - Comprehensive win for Sehwag AGAIN
McGrath v Praveen - McGrath OWNS Praveen ! AGAIN
Rest of the battles were no-shows.
