Hayden and Muralitharan does the cameo for CSK

Finally they are out, from my point of view I say that it’s really difficult for other teams if they keep going like this. Hayden and Patel who made a brilliant start to the innings contributed 106 for the first wicket.Chennai Super Kings who started with match with a defeat against Mumbai Indians have now regrouped their team that had slayed the Bangalore Royal Challengers. Chasing a huge total of 179 runs under lights Bangalore Royal Challengers have lost the match by 92 runs. It was once again a poor start for the Challengers, Praveen Kumar who started the innings was bowled out by Gony.Kallis made a firing start but it was his International team mate Albie Morkel who caught him for a leg before wicket. Soon the other players went out for cheap dismissals.Dravid alone fought the battle alone scoring 20 runs and in no time even he was dismissed by Balaji.Muralitharan who claimed three wickets giving away only 11 runs was adjudged the Man Of The Match. Hayden now holds the Orange cap for scoring high runs in this season. Even Freddie’s cameo of 21 runs in just 12 balls saw Chennai set an impressive total of 179/5 in 20 overs.

Hayden Fit..

After his retirement he feels that he has been fit and strong enough to open the match for the Chennai Super Kings in the IPL Season 2.Having advantage of the pace men in South Africa pitches the openers have to show their best in batting. He admits himself that he loves playing T20 matches these days with an energetic, fast and great atmosphere. With lot more cricket left for him to play lets hope out for a good season from him.
