The match report by the Veteran: The 12th match of the IPL was a one sided affair. SRH seemed to have used all their fire power in their previous match to make the record breaking score of 277 against MI and could just make 162 in what looked like a pretty decent pitch. GT chased in down with 7 wickets to spare.

In the IL Master group, the Veteran had his second win. He is slowly getting into rhythm after a few bad matches in the beginning of the tournament. The Veteran has his ups and downs but he is usually a consistent customer. It is too early to say if he had got back to his prime form. For now, a great game and congratulations. Keep it up.

Interestingly enough both the games won by Veteran, the second came the ClutchGod. May be it is just a coincidence but at least until now, the Veteran’s ‘Bangali baba tabiz’ is helping him defy the wrath of ClutchGod. Hope that continues. Nice game mate. Congratulations but hard luck.

For first time in the tournament, the Dark Horse came to bottom and received the wooden spoon. It might just be a loss of focus. This is a long tournament and keeping focus is what is most important. So best of luck for that Dark Horse.
