Deccan Chargers captain Laxman scored 52 off 44 in the Indian Premier Leagues 21st match and Rohit Sharma scored 57 off 42 to finish at 153 for 6 . This was never going to be enough but they were playing the Banglore Royals who are not playing great at the present . Nevertheless Dravid's team beat Deccan Chargers by 3 runs . W Jaffer scored 44 off 37 , young Virat Kohli hit 38 off 28 and the captain 26 off 19 to finish at 156 for 8 . A good fight by Banglore Royals .

In the Indian Premier Leagues 22nd match between Kings Punjab XI and Kolkata Knight Riders , the Knight Riders lost despite D Hussey and Prashant Saha trying their best  . Hussey at 71 off 46 and Saha at 59 off 32, both with 4 sixes each .Captain Ganguly once again failed to make a mark .Kings Punjab finished at 178 for 6 and Kolkata 169 for 6 .

It seems that icon players and captains Dravid , Ganguly and Captain Yuvraj have still got to fire up . These are world class players and it is only a matter of time before they will entertain the crowds as well as the Australians did . I wait for that day .
