#2 RP Singh - Deccan Chargers (Result - Won), IPL Final 2009

South Africa hosted the second season of the Indian Premier League as the dates of the tournament clashed with the General Elections of India. Adam Gilchrist led the Hyderabad based Deccan Chargers to their first ever final after a disappointing first season. On the other hand, Anil Kumble inspired the Royal Challengers Bangalore to their maiden IPL final.
The two teams played out a thriller at Johannesburg as Herschelle Gibbs' 53* helped DC post 143/6 on the board. However, the RCB batsmen failed to achieve the target as they fell short by 6 runs. RP Singh successfully defended 15 runs in the last over as Robin Uthappa and Anil Kumble could score only 8 runs off the last 6 balls of the RCB innings. Singh bowled two crucial dot balls in the most important over of his IPL career to set up Chargers' triumph.
