Chennai Super Kings defeat Kings XI Punjab



Chennai Super kings have proved themselves champions of the tournament after a bad start initially this season. They defeated the Kings XI by 12 runs. CSK put up a total of 185 after a rain delayed match. The overs were reduced to 18. Skipper MSDhoni and Matthew Hayden were on fire. Kings XI almost closed in while chasing the total when MSDhoni gambled by bringing in Suresh Raina to bowl towards the end of the match. The two overs he bowled was exceptional reducing the pace of the match completely with jus 8 runs for 2 overs. And Raina was the man of the hour making it easy for CSK to win.

Chennai Super Kings strike again


Well CSK has made it again by beating Deccan chargers.MS.Dhoni and Matthew Hayden managed to put a decent total of 178 on board. And the Deccan chargers losing early wickets of Gibbs and Gilchrist created a pressure on the batting side. But still Smith managed to maintain the runrate till he was dismissed for a lbw. It was Jakati who struck again with the ball picking up 4 for 22. Skipper MS.Dhoni was awarded man of the match for his unbeaten 58 off 37 balls.

FAKE IPL PLAYER


Well this post is fully dedicated to the Fake ipl player. For all those who are not aware of this anonymous personality, this person is definitely grabbing a lot of attention in this season of IPL. The person has been blogging about his team and the discussions that generally take place off the field and the events that take place in the dressing room. He says that he will post about all the action taking place in the dressing room, bedroom and bathroom of the players. ( Mann you have a lot of guts.)

This blogger calls himself a member of the Kolkata Knight Riders team and through his posts its shows his clear hatred towards the co-owner Shah Rukh Khan and coach John Buchanan. And is also posting about the post match parties too. The blogger is playing a safe game by not directly mentioning the names of the characters instead he has given them nick names with an explanation on how that name arrived. Well thats super-cool man.

His way of narrating things that are happening inside the team is absolutely fantastic.By the way IPL-2 being quite a bore with the matches being washed away by rain and the poor crowd turning up for the match, all i need is some action and entertainment. Which i'm definitely getting by reading the articles posted by you in your blog.

Who ever you are man once you get caught you are gonna be screwed for sure. And your career is gonna be totally fucked. But who cares, as of now your posts are better than the matches. You rock and keep rocking !!!
