third game

The Mumbai Indians have begun this edition of the tournament rather well as they notched up two wins in as many games. In their first game, they scored a 200-plus total, and despite a blitzkrieg ton from Yusuf Pathan, emerged winners. The other game saw them crush Delhi after getting to a near 220, winning by 98 runs.

Younis Khan has done it again! Known for his penchant for resigning from the captaincy and retiring from cricket, only to take back his decision, he has decided to resign from the top post and take a temporary break from international cricket.

Group A saw Pakistan play the first game of the tournament against West Indies on the Johannesburg pitch, a wicket that would have spelt doom for most batsmen. For some surprising reason, the second string West Indian side decided to bat first on a green looking Wanderers track, and were in big trouble earlier on. They had lost seven wickets for 47, and it looked like the game would finish up inside the first half of the match when a nice rearguard action by the West Indian side saw them get to 133.
