Sure did. Dougie had 2 overs 0/3. Had 9 dot ballsin his first 2 overs. Great effort by Dougie!!!

In such a high scoring game, 2/15 off 4 overs was definitely the difference IMO

If ever there were any doubts as too whether match fixing is prevalent in the IPL, I think last nights game confirmed my personal thoughts, that players are readily fixing matches for their own personal gain. Sachin Tendulker retiring hurt due to dehydration in a 20/20 game at night in India where he has played cricket his entire life. Tendulkar was seeing them like watermelons and he opts to retire hurt and walk off at a crucial time becuase he needs a drink, your kidding me, what a disgrace!!

DId you watch it throughout the game though?
He was struggling in the field. It was ridicolously hot and he had already called for the physio numerous times.
He was struggling to even lift the bat.
Stating that about Sachin IMO is very low and not very fair on one of the best, most fair and respected cricketers we have witnessed
