Indian Premier League

Delhi Daredevils 150 for 4 (Dilshan 67*) beat Bangalore Royal Challengers 149 for 7 (Pietersen 37, Nehra 2-34) by six wickets

• It looked like Delhis' batsmen had been a tad complacent while chasing a modest target, which Bangalores' bowlers defended tenaciously, but an unbeaten half-century from Dilshan completed their third consecutive win in the tournament
  
• The six-wicket victory took Delhi level with Deccan on top of the points table, with six each

Kings XI Punjab 139 for 6 (Sangakkara 60, Irfan 39) beat Rajasthan Royals (Jadeja 37, Abdulla 3-21, Irfan 2-26) by 27 runs

• Two pairs of left-handers played key roles as Kings XI steamrolled Royals in Cape Town
• Punjab struggled after early losses and it was left to Sangakkara to weigh in with his first half-century of the tournament and the star of the day, Irfan, to provide the momentum for a fightback.
• Then, defending a total of 139, Punjab were indebted to double-wicket overs from Irfan and Abdulla at the start
