Kolkata Knight Riders beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 2 runs at
Sharjah. It was IPL 2014 Best catch by Chris Lynn which changed the game
totally. Chris Lynn takes the IPL 2014 Best catch to dismiss AB de
Villiers caught an inch inside the deep midwicket boundary. He take the
catch at the time when his team needed the best.
One question which will hit in this match everyone mind is that Did Yuvraj Singh lose that game with 31 off 34 balls? Or did Chris Lynn win it off one ball? . I think in this match their was no need to take the match till last ball they took it and in the end one catch result in loss.
The match looked well in control as the openers Takawale and Patel got Bangalore to a cracking start. The game was all but over as Kohli looked set to guide them home. But the match turned immediately after his wicket. Kolkata got a sniff and they made sure they got a mouthful in the end. Some seriously good death bowling compounded the pressure on the Bangalore batsmen and wickets started to fall. The moment of the match came when Chris Lynn caught de Villiers at mid-wicket with a breathtaking effort. That brought fresh vigor in the side and Kolkata brought it home thanks to a brilliant final over from Vinay Kumar.
Easily the best match of the tournament so far. Kolkata looked down and out till most part of the game but pulled out a stunning effort late in the day to rock Bangalore and hand them their first defeat of the league.
After taking a catch Chris Lynn said that “I slipped and I thought if
I stood up and dropped the catch, it would look very silly, so just
stayed down.”
I think Chris Lynn needs to take a bow here! A good length ball on middle, de Villiers slaps it down to deep mid-wicket, Chris Lynn leaps up in the air, gets parallel to the ground and takes an absolute ripper of a catch, that is easily the catch of the tournament! Bangalore are shell shocked.
CA Lynn was named as Man Of match
