Royal Challengers Bangalore vs http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 Daredevils – IPL 5 – Toss Report
Delhi Daredevils captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/V-Sehwag-c2739, has won the toss and will bowl first against the Royal Challengers Bangalore, with the match shortly commencing at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore, April 7, 2012.
Rejuvenated by their success in the opening game against Kolkata Knight Riders, Sehwag opted to go with the same strategy of asking his opponents to have a bat, and make full use of the early freshness of the track through his inform pace attack. Also the skipper reckons that the pitch will behave in much the same manner for most of the day.

However, the major news from the Challengers camp is the exclusion of Gayle, who misses the tie due to injury. It will be a major disappointment for the packed Bengaluru crowd, who were eagerly anticipating some firework from the Windies dynamite. His place will be taken by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/M-Muralitharan-c1864.
The Delhi franchise is still without their major overseas recruits in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Doug-Bracewell-c1394 as their four foreign players.
Both sides played each other once last year – with the game being held at Delhi. The Challengers emerged narrow winners after claiming victory by 3 wickets. However a new game will offer new prospects for both sides.
The pitch will be a batting paradise.
