DC’s top order crumbled against the RCB seamers, losing three wickets in the first 14 balls and their captain’s power play at the end to see the game and the overtime points quickly slip away. For…

Well if you have believed as IPL to be the World’s Best Cricketing League, the past 4 evenings, including last night’s RR vs CSK thriller, have given you enough proof to substantialize that. It isn’t a gospel just about RR’s Victory last night, but it is about the sentiment of fans expecting yet another Magical Innings from Thala MS Dhoni, which came so close, yet remained so far.
