Warne Hits Penultimate Ball SIX To Win For The Royals

Apr 24th, 2008 | By Aditya | Category: News

Oh dear, that match was just too tense for me. The Rajsthan Royals were locked in a intense match against the Deccan Chargers, and it went down right to the finish. Needing 215 to win, the Rajasthan Royals did well to chase, but needed 17 runs of the last over to win. And as Warne smashed a SIX of the last-but-one delivery to seal the win for the Royals, the entire stadium erupted. What a match!

Earlier in the evening, the famed Symonds finally clicked, scoring a well hit 117 off just 53 balls with 18 hits to the fence (including 7 sixes). The Deccan Chargers did well, but I think they needed just a slightly higher score on this wicket. Symonds needed some more hitting support from the rest of the team that didn’t come through and that cost the Deccan Chargers their 3rd loss in a row. The Chargers need to pull things together and quickly!
