Picture of the week
The big match
The big match this week was the final of the fifth IPL between the
Chennai Super Kings and the Kolkata Knight Riders. A strong performance from
the CSK top order (Hussey 54, Vijay 42, Raina 73 & Dhoni 14) left them at
190/3. Manvinder Bisla batted well for 89 off 48 balls and was supported by
Kallis (68). Kallis departed after 18.5 overs KKR needed 16 to win. Shakib Al
Hasan & Manoj Tiwary saw them home with 2 balls to spare.
