The Match
Kolkata vs Rajasthan. The first ever IPL tie - and it should have ended just there. A tie is more Romantic than a "Super Over".
The bowling Spell
Who ever heard of 5 wickets for 5 runs in an IPL match? Well done, Kumble.
The innings.
He wants to be the best batsman in the world. AB De Villiers shows his intentions with the first ton in this year's IPL. No one can laugh at his statements now.
The Veteran(s)
Last year fresh faces and those unheard of were making headlines. This year, players nearing retirement and even those who have retired have taken almost all the Man of the Match awards. T20 keeps bringing surprises.
The New face
Kamran Khan. Shane Warne keeps bringing surprises too.
The Openers
Gibbs/Gilly or Sachin/Sanath? Deccan won the battle when these two teams met, but the Sachin/Sanath show against Kolkata sent shivers down everyone's spines. If you were not a Mumbhai fan.
The upset
Bangalore beating the defending champions. Bangalore haven't won a match after that game. Makes it all the more upsetting for Rajasthan.
The way to break the momentum
Have a "strategic" time out. Unwanted nonsense.
