It's the Deccan Chargers this time who defeated the Chennai Super Kings of the IPL. This is the third time in a row that the Chennai Super Kings have lost in the tournament. After the first four matches, the Chennai Super Kings were on top of the list and were all geared up and happy. But now they have lost three matches in a row and the skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has a task at hand and he must somehow inspire his bunch of boys to believe in themselves like they did when they started out in the initial matches of the tournament. And I think the big hitting Albie Morkel should be pushed up the batting order so that he gets more overs to go about his routine of hitting big sixes. Manpreet Goni deserves special praise as he has been consistently bowling well throughout the tournament. Before the IPL actually started, I believed that the Deccan Chargers are the team that could very well win the IPL. But as it turned out they lost five of their seven matches as they were not mould themselves into a team. Now that seems like a story from the past. With explosive batsmen like Adam Gilchrist, Herscelle Gibbs and Shahid Afridi in the line up, I feel that if the Deccan Chargers get their momentum going, it will definitely be bad news for all the other seven teams.
