Bravo CSK!!
At last there was a win for MSD after a gap of 3 months and after a consecutive 8 loses at a streak. Though 7 out of 8 losses were playing for India, yet, the captain cool deserves more accolades for persisting to me Mr.cool.
The intent to win this match was very much writ on MSDs face, right from the time he lost the toss. But the change of bowlers at the right time, placing of fielders at the right places meant that he was on the role. His reading of the situation early that the ball was not coming onto the bat, was related to his his old armory self of leadership.
From 124/4 from 16.1 overs, Cobras folded their innings in a dismal fashion - they were 7 down for a mere 145. Though the field was wet, still, the ball was not coming onto the bat. Bollinger, Bravo and Morkel utilized the conditions well and brought down the score in what looked liked the Cobras would go beyond 160.
The 19th over did the trick for CSK. It was Bravo's effort that sailed through. His score of 6, 4, 4, 2 of the last 4 balls off Steyn sealed the fate of CSK.
It was surprised to see Mr.Cool, loosing ccol after being dismissed. At the dressing room, he was seen restless till the blow from Bravo sealed the match in CSK favour. His wife was also seen being restless, as they badly need a victory to boost their self esteem. Yes, skipper, please bring back the winning habit.
