Nothing went right for hyderabad in there first match at home ground, except some fireworks from Rohit Sharma. Deccan Chargers set a decent target because of his scintillating innings of 66

On his day no one can be as brutal as Delhi daredevils icon player virendar Sehwag, watch out his brilliant knock of 94 in 41 balls that include 10 fours and 6 sixes.
April 22, 08 by CricStars
Dissapointment..In a game which every one thought will be a thriller, turned out to be a dampner.
Deccan Chargers lost and lost very badly in home ground. Delhi used new ball to a good extent and troubled HYderabad top order.
Venu Gopal rao is most pathetic of all, he keeps on swinging his bat and miss it by a huge gap, McGrath used the conditions to a great extent and troubled gilly, mcgrath along with Asif gave delhi a perfect strat. Sysmonds looked good in his short stint. when it looked like Hyderabad innings will be rapped out below 110, Rohit Sharma showed soem guts and took on Mahroof in 17 th over and minted 26 runs. Hyderabad scored 52 runsi n last 3 overs. But that was not enough for delhi
Any hopes of saving a low target was dashed by Virender Sehwag his firey 41-ball 94 gave Delhi a emphatic nine-wicket win over the Deccan Chargers in Hyderabad.
Will Post Delhi Innings soon

Bangalore Royal Challengers trashed Mumbai Indians infront of a nosiy Mumbai crowd in there first match. In a match dominated by porteas, Boucher and kallis denied win to Mumbai.
Sachin missed this match and Luke Ronchi, opened the innings with Sanath. Virat Kohli took a awesome catch to dismiss dangerous Ronchi( He had a strike rate of 177 in T20’s). After 17 overs, Mumbai only had 129, but Pollock went on against Bangalore bowlers. Robin Uthappa(48 in 38 ),Sanath Jayasuriya(29), and pollocks 12-ball 28 lifted Mumbai Indians to a challenging 165 for 6 in their first encounter at IPL. Harbhajhan did a fine job as a captain. Zahher Khan looked at his best utilized bounce and controlled the ball very well
Bangalore low of confidence started there reply shakily, while Chandrapual looked confident Dravid was clueless initially but later one displayed some good strokes.
Dravid should come in middle of the innings than open the innings. Virat Kohli Sparked in his short innings, no doubt he will make into India ODI squad very soon. Boucher(39 runs) straight away played beautifully and along with Kallis( 55 run partnership) steered Bangalore Royal Challengers to there first victory
