Rajasthan Royals
After winning the toss and choosing to field first, Deccan Chargers batted really well to post a huge total of 214 on the board thanks to a brilliant innings from Andrew Symonds who scored an unbeaten 117 runs.

Rajasthan Royals came out all guns blazing with quick half centuries from Yusuf Pathan and Graeme Smith followed by a cameo from Mohammad Kaif. In the end, it was their skipper Shane Warne who played a heroic innings to lead his team to victory. Ironically enough, the winning runs came off Andrew Symonds’ over. This win proved instrumental in boosting RR’s confidence throughout the season.
This was also the highest successful run chase which hasn’t been broken in 10 years, and I don’t think it will be broken anytime soon.

A wrestling aficionado since childhood, Sunil used to imitate his favorite wrestlers as a young kid, and started writing professionally about the sport via Sportskeeda’s revenue-sharing opportunity.
Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
