Kochin Tuskers' batting collapses
Put into bat by Rajasthan Royals, Kochi Tuskers could manage to score only 109 from 20 overs. Without star batsman Brendon McCullum , their batting collapsed like a pack of cards. Rajasthan bowled and fielded well under the captaincy of Shane Warne. Shane Warne and Siddharth Trivedi took 3 wickets each.
Parthiv Patel tops cored with 32 from 34 balls. He was out stumped off Shane Warne while trying for an atrocious reverse sweep.

Mumbai Indians won by 37 runs
Mumbai Indian's 172/4 in 20 overs was too much for Deccan chargers as they could score only 135/8.
Mumbai's innings was powered by Davy Jacob's 32 from 20 balls and Sachin's 28 from 24 balls and some power hitting by Rohit Sharma (56 from 34 balls ) and Andrew Symonds (44 from 33 balls). Amit Mishra took 2 wickets for 14 runs. Rohit Sharma's blistering form continues. He has scored 87 in the last match.
In Deccan chargers' innings captain Sangakara topscored with 34 from 28 balls. Malinga's superb bowling restricted Deccan Chargers' progress. He had the wonderful figures of 3 for 9 from 4 overs. Unbelievable economy rate of 2.25 !!!

Kochi meets Rajastan Royals today
Giant Killers Kochi Tuskers Kerala takes on Rajasthan Royals today at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur. Kochi Tuskers are on a winning spree after beating Mumbai Indians , CSK and KKR. Rajasthan Royals have lost their last 3 matches. Even though Rajasthan Royals have stars like Shane Warne, Ross Taylor, Shane Watson and Rahul Dravid they could not perform well in this edition of IPL. They are hoping for a reversal of fortune with the support of their home crowd. While Kochi wants to extend their winning run under the astute captaincy of Mahela Jayawardene. An exciting match is on the cards today.
Sai Baba passes away, Sachin doubtful for today's match.
The phenomenon of Sathya Sai Baba decided to leave the earth on Sunday , April 24, 7:40 a.m. This is the birthday of a batting phenomenon called Sachin. Sri Sathya Sai Baba was Sachin's spiritual guru. In Hyderabad to play the IPL match against Deccan Chargers, the Mumbai Indians' skipper reportedly locked himself in his hotel room, with a 'Do not Disturb' placard describing his saddened state at the news of Sathya Sai Baba's death on Sunday.
