Sehwag leads the victory march against Deccan Chargers

When Virender Sehwag is in a devastating form, bowlers run for cover. It was proved yet against at Hyderabad during the IPL encounter between Hyderabad Deccan Chargers and Delhi DareDevils. Sehwag scored a blazing 94 to power DareDevils to register a comprehensive 9-wicket victory over the Deccan Chargers.

Deccan Chargers won the toss and elected to bat first. But their batsmen failed to face the bowling of Md. Asif, G McGrath and P Maharoof. The team managed to score 142/8 in 20 overs, thanks to a brilliant 66 off 36 balls by Rohit Sharma. Asif, Maharoof and Bhatia took 2 wickets each.

The target turned out to be very ordinary, as Sehwag stepped in for the DareDevils. Sehwag's 41-ball 94* changed the course of the game. The DareDevils lost only one wicket and reached the target in just 13 overs. Shikhar Dhawan played a second fiddle and remained unbeaten on 25. Sanjay Bangar and Andrew Symonds burnt Sehwag's fury. In Bangar's one over, Sehwag scored 23 runs (2 sixes and 2 boundaries). Later, he hit 30 runs in a Symonds over. Sehwag hit Symonds 4, 6, 4, 6, 4, 6 in that particular over. Not surprisingly, he was declared "Man of the Match".

Sehwag is one of the greatest players of all time. I just loved watching him score smashing 94 runs against Deccan Chargers. I am sure that he along with rest of the daredevils is going to rock in this tournament. I was surprised to see the way they were preparing themselves before the big game. They really worked hard http://www.youtube.com/user/ipldelhidaredevils
