It's all over now, no pressure, can just pick up the singles.

Feel bad for Dehli, they were the side of the tournament, but just had no answers for Gilchrist.

You mean the required rr?
Yeah.

This is why I LOVE T20. From 0/2, Delhi can come back to 80 odd for 2 off 10 and then be restricted to 153 off 20. Then, the favourites for the tournament can be annihilated completely.

This is also why Adam Gichrist is one of my all time favourite players. Richard doesn't like the destruction of Gilly but then Richard is Richard.

Delhi get no sympathy for me. They deserve this for not giving a single game to Mcgrath. He couldn't be that bad.

As a side comment, loved the attitude of both the captains at the toss and throughout this game. Gilly was sure what he wanted to do when he won the toss - field. Was justified with two wickets falling early. Sehwag was positive in the toss as well saying he would have batted any way and althey had defeated Deccan two times in the competition already. Sehwag then batted well, brought himself to bowl taking the onus when Gilchrist was destroying it (he didn't have many options left though). And Gilly completely destroying Delhi It's game over barring a collapse of a huge magnitute.
