Gilchrist decimated Mumbai bowlers

Hyderabad Deccan Chargers won their game in IPL by beating Mumbai Indians at D.Y. Patil stadium in Mumbai. Adam Gilchrist scored fastest century in IPL to setup this emphatic win for Hyderabad IPL team. Hyderabad crushed Mumbai by 10 wickets as Mumbai played without Sachin Tendulkar and suspended Harbhajan Singh. This is the fourth successive defeat for Mumbai IPL team.VVS Laxman first time showed his batting skills and captaincy prowess in this match. But selection politics are still going on. On what criterion, Hyderabad selectors are picking Arjun Yadav over Ravi Teja. Ravi Teja need to switch to IPL as Ambati Rayudu did. Shivlal Yadav family is ruling Hyderabad cricket like their own kingdom. IPL franchisees need passionate owners like Shahrukh Khan, Preity Zinta and Vijay Mallya.

Hyderabad sent warning signals to opposition teams by this emphatic performance. Arrival of Adam Gilchrist into this kind of form is good news at an ideal time.

But Hyderabad still needs to sort out selection errors to win against strong teams.
