Delhi Daredevils win by 8 wickets

Delhi's batsmen enjoyed themselves as they chased a tame score from Pune. Captain Sehwag was the stand out performer, with 87 runs, but Jaywardene and Pietersen showed why this side are tournament favourites with impressive supporting innings. Pune never recovered from their horrible start when they lost Ryder and Ganguly for only one run.

  • Sehwag: "Good to be top of the table, all because of my bowlers, they did a fantastic job."
  • Ganguly: "We didn't get enough runs, it's a good wicket, not a big ground, so 170-180 would be a par score. We were under six an over for about 13 overs and then got some runs in the end"

Story behind Yusuf Pathan jersey No. '999'

Like in life, in sports too there are people who remain an enigma. At least to those who watch them from the outside. They fascinate and frustrate in equal measures. At times, one feels they are surviving on their reputation and not its execution. But these enigmatic geniuses often find someone who understands their worth, who believes in them as much as they believe in themselves. Yusuf Pathan is an enigma. Everyone knows of his supreme leather-pounding power and they love him for that. But to their dismay they don’t see that skill being converted into runs. But those close to him and his team mates see what others can’t. His Kolkata Knight Riders skipper, Gautam Gambhir, surely does.  Questions have been raised about Pathan’s place in the KKR Playing XI since the beginning of the 2012 IPL. And with every low score against his name, they have gotten louder. In IPL 2013, Pathan has played three matches so far and scored 18*, 0 and 27.  They’re not big scores but they’
