First the bowlers did a fantastic job for Delhi Daredevils - they managed to restrict MS Dhoni and their boys and their team Chennai Super Kings at a moderate score of 169. It could have been a little less if not for the sixes in the closing two overs. And a little more would have made the match a bit more spicy.

With Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir coming in to open for Delhi Daredevils it was a riot of runs from the begining with sixes and fours flashing out from Sehwags bat in a never ending flow. Even a sporting home crowd could do nothing but enjoy and applaud such a brilliant display of batting wonder.Sewhwag scored 71 of onyl 41 balls with 7 fours and 4 sixes. Gautam added another 50 off 37 balls and also got the orange cap - which was so far with Hayden - another loss for Chennai.

Delhi Daredevils finished off the reign of the Chennai Super Kings in 19 overs and won by 8 wickets.

Chennai Super Kings: 169/6 (20.0 Ovs)
