IPL5 Points Table - 14th May '12

It has happened again. Teams have lost matches in their home grounds last night. While Rain, Light and Gayle played spoilsport for Royal Challengers against Mumbai Indians, it was the last ball decider which went in favor of Chennai Super Kings against Kolkata Knight Riders.

Now when the playoffs are so close can RCB make it to the top 4?

Adding Cheer to IPL - Cheer Leaders at IPL5

Cheerleaders have been an integral part of IPL. Some teams have opted for the desi beauties while rest have sticked on to the fair blondes. The job of a cheerleader is not that easy as you think . The job starts proir to the arrival of teams on the field and continues upto after they leave.

They have to perform at the end of each over (40 overs mind it!) And to celebrate each of 4s and 6s. (Imagine the state when Chris Gayle is on fire!) And do not forget the fall of wickets. No doubt they have been successful in providing entertainment to the packed stadia and pull larger and larger crowds with their presence and performance

Some of the cheerful moments of of these beauties

IPL5 Points Table - 4th May '12

The champions of IPL2, the Deccan Chargers are successfully holding their bottom position intact this season ;)

They were beaten comfortably by Dhoni's men in a rather disappointing match last night. Cameron White's brilliant 77 off 53 balls went in vain. Top 4 Teams will qualify for the play-offs
