Sehwag puts Delhi on top

Pics from IPLT20.com
Up until now, there were not many teams capable of challenging Chennai. After Hayden,Hussey out from Chennai team, Dhoni's boys will feel much stiffer competition from other teams.
This match though, was effectively decided by a century stand inside 12 overs between Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir.
Frankly, Chennai was in complete control until first 12 overs but lost their way later on. A super bowling attack was needed but by Oram's absence it was all the more depleted.
To me, Gambhir is the man of the tournament so far. He is on top of batting chart in IPL with 220 + runs with a average of 56 and staggering SR of 140. He has been instrumental in Delhi's success. If Delhi has to win the tournament, Both Sehwag and Gambhir have to fire. They have peaked early in the tournament and there is every chance of "law of averages" coming into play. They should keep their focus and go all the way.
Reaching on top of the charts, they should feel more confident now. I am supporting them!!!
