It was a second hat-trick of sixes in the Indian innings in this Match, this time by Yusuf Pathan. He got down on one knee and slogged Nathan McCullum’s first three deliveries over long-on but was caught while going for the fourth. The ball travelled flatter towards Oram at long-on who took the catch, pedalled backwards, quickly lobbed the ball in the air before going over the rope and caught it once again after coming back into play. It was reminiscent of Adam Voges’ catch at the same position in Sydney recently.

The need for raw pace in any side is quite evident in this day and age. However, Rajasthan Royals pacer Siddharth Trivedi is one bowler who relies more on accuracy than pace to outwit the batsman. The IPL is a wonderful opportunity for young players and Trivedi is grateful to the league for giving him the opportunity to play under the leadership of a legend in the form of Shane Warne.

Kings XI Punjab will take on Rajasthan Royals on their home turf on Thursday with an eye on keeping their winning momentum. Punjab have hit a winning streak thanks mainly to their new-found hero Paul Valthaty. The Punjab franchise has won their last two games against 2009 IPL champions Deccan Chargers and defending champions Chennai Super Kings. Rajasthan Royals have suffered a couple of setbacks in the last week at the hands of Kolkata Knight Riders. But they will be looking to bounce back and with both Johan Botha and Rahul Dravid expected to be back from injury, their batting line-up has a semblance of solidity.
