Yuvraj Singh seems to have come back to form and there is no better sight in world cricket than to see him at full flow. Yuvi took the Delhi attack to the cleaners and made mince meat out of it as he scored 68 off 29 balls with the help of 9 sixes and 1 boundary. Bangalore reached a formidable total of 186 runs which honestly gave Delhi little chance of winning the match.

The veteran off-spinner Muttiah Murlitharan struck in his first over by dismissing Murali Vijay and from there onwards it was only downhill for the Daredevils. Delhi lost wickets at regular intervals and although Duminy looked dangerous in his brief stay at the crease, chasing down a stiff target of 187 runs was always going to be difficult for DD and at the end they fell short by 16 runs.
