The two South Indian teams that would clash in the finals are Hyderabad Deccan Chargers and Bangalore Royal Challengers.
In the second semi final, Royal Challengers beat the tournament favorite Chennai Super Kings by 6 wickets with 7 balls remaining.
I would say that the batsmen of CSK let them down than the bowlers. Restricting 147 in the knock-out stage is always difficult especially in a batting wicket.
Kumble asked Chennai to bat first who scored 146 in 20 overs losing 5 wickets. Parthiv Patel top scored with 36 and for Royal Challengers, Pandey top scored with 44. He played a wonderful innings and all the fours were treat to the eyes! His century in the previous match must have added lot of confidence to the batsmen!
The teams finished last in the first season have bounced back very well to meet in the finals!
So, it is DC v. RC in the final.
