A hattrick by Praveen Kumar forced the Rajastan Royals to set up the lowest target(93) in this edition of the IPL, which was quite easily overhauled by the Royal Challangers Banglore without losing a wicket.
One of the most one-sided contests in this IPL, the match would have deeply dissapointed the captain of the first time winners, Shane Warne, who did well to put up a brave face, urging people not to give up on them as yet, but more than the results, its the manner in which they have been losing, would have disheartened even their most loyal fan.
As has been seen, they are still dependent on Yusuf Pathan, while all other teams are busy devising a plan against this explosive batsman. Banglore succeeded in stopping him, and as a result, the RR had no way to go but down.
Praveen Kumar did well to get that hattrick, but then he is hardly a menacing bowler. He can get wickets when the batsmen are trying to cart him around, good for him.
Banglore has got the momentum now, and are looking increasingly good.
Great news for its fans.
