Deccan Chargers win by 7 wickets with four balls to spare. Lovely chase from Deccan Chargers, keeping their wickets intact all the time. Well anchored by Suman who every now and then unleashed the big hits and most importantly laid the foundation with Gilly. Symonds provided the finishing touches with Suman. RCB were good with both bat and ball though a couple of bowlers let them down. Otherwise Dale Steyn was just red hot with his pace!
