Deccan Chargers Champions of IPL-2009

The underdogs, Deccan Chargers crowned as the champions of IPL-2009. They defeat the Royal Challengers of Bangalore by 6 runs. Deccan Chargers batted first and scored a formidable score of 143 runs. Chasing 143, Royal Challengers Bangalore only able to score 137 runs in the alloted 20 overs. Gibbs from Deccan Chargers, played a silent and superb knock of 54 runs, which helped the Deccan Chargers to post a good total on the board. These two teams finished in last 2 places in the first IPL season on 2008, Royal Challengers finished 7th in IPL first season, while the Deccan Chargers finished 8th. This shows, that it just takes matter of time to move from bottom position to top position. We will all hope this season bottom finisher Kolkata Knight Riders to play a better cricket in the next IPL season.
