Praveen Kumar a magnificent hat-trick.



Bangalore register the second biggest win (in terms of balls to spare, 56 balls) and the third 10-wicket win in the history of the tournament. The 93-run target was taken down in 10.4 overs without losing any wickets.


Jaipur failed to get off the mark as Bangalore bowl them out for a paltry 92 in 19.5 overs to register the lowest total of this edition of the tournament.


The highest scorer was Yusuf Pathan but even he got 2 lives before finally getting run out. Praveen Kumar was the pick of the bowlers with 3 wickets for 18 runs including a magnificent hat-trick.


Kumble supported him brilliantly with figures of 3 for 9. This will be an easy target for a side that just chased over 200 in their last game


Manish Pandey (42*) and Jacques Kallis (44*) finished things in style for Bangalore with both batsmen getting into their early forties. News from the presentation - Yusuf Pathan bagged the maximum sixes award. Warne reckoned that defending such a low total would require a miracle, and that clearly did not happen tonight.


Jacques Kallis was adjudged man of the match for the second time in as many games
