IPL8 – Yuvraj Singh shines Delhi Daredevils win at Pune

#IPL8 #KXIPvDD #yuvraj #sehwag #mayankagarwal At long last Yuvraj Sigh came into his own at Pune by smashing 55 runs in the match against the Kings XI Punjab – it was the first and, a much needed win, for the Delhi Daredevils as reported in timesofindia.indiatimes.com dated 15 April 2015.

Yuvraj Singh (55 three sixes and five fours) in the company of Mayank Agarwal (68 two sixes and seven fours) helped Delhi Daredevils to beat Kings XI Punjab by 5 wickets and register their first win of the eighth season of the Indian Premier League at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium. The pair put on 106 runs for the third wicket before both fell to Anureet Singh who send both back to the pavilion in successive balls of the penultimate over.
KXIP had scored 165 and, with 166 to score, the Delhi boys chased it down with one ball to spare and won by 5 wickets.
Winning the toss, KXIP decided to bat first and Virender Sehwag top-scored with a 41-ball 47 and with a 71-run partnership for the second wicket between him and Wriddhiman Saha (39) Kings XI Punjab managed to an apparently competitive score of 165 for seven. But, cricket is an unpredictable game, especially the T20 version where a single over can change the complexion of the game. The result, at times, disappoints the fans and takes everyone, including the opposition by surprise.
