Watch cricket highlights – Mohali vs Royal Challengers Bangalore – from IPL 2009

Scoreline: Bangalore 168/9: Jacques Kallis 62, Ross Taylor 35, Jesse Ryder 32 – Abdulla 4-31-4, Irfan Pathan 4-35-3.
Mohali finish with an over to spare: Ravi Bopara 84 (59), Yuvraj Singh 30 (17) – Anil Kumble 4-19-1

Ravi Bopara finally put on a show of his clean-hitting abilities, though he’d do well to get rid of his grafting-tendencies that sometimes brings him down. Dale Steyn missed out today to fit in the Glimmer twins – Ross Taylor and Jesse Ryder. Much joy from the two. It was a determined Yuvraj Singh on show today, holding himself back, until right at the end, while Bopara picked up his game with 5 overs and 60 runs to get. No Pie-chucker vs KP today

Much as KP the player is one of the best around, think the Bangalore team will acquire a better balance when he returns for the England-WI series. Bad news however hovers – Dravid will miss some of the later games (becoming daddy beckons) while Kallis is apparently going to be Capn. Well, at least he could amuse his teammates with gems like – How high above sea-level are we (while strolling on a beach with SA teammates).

User, Zeronava’s comments probably make sense – drop Mallya to improve Bangalore’s fortunes.

The IPL has been fun so far. Only dampener is the appearance of Harsha Bhogle on air – Gavaskar is probably the best equipped to handle him. Hope their duet continues.

Pregame: Though Mohali have a game in hand relative to Bangalore, another loss is hardly desired. Also, they’d be hoping to get their first 20 over complete game this season.

  4. Excellent highlights. Keep it up!

  5. Great job with the highlights. Though I’d like to add that Harsha Bhogle is one of the most respected and admired commentators in India. In fact, he, is the only commentator, from what I’ve noticed, who doesn’t shout out “DLF MAXIUMUM!!” or “CITI MOMENT OF SUCCESS!!” every time some players clears the boundary or breaks a partnership. It is very much appreciated by viewers like me who are SICK AND TIRED of listening to commentators like Shastri or Gavaskar (whom I think is one of the very worst).
