Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 26Sep 20IPL -2020: T20 match at the famous Zayed Sports City Stadium in the AbudhabiThe much-awaited T20 match started on September 19 at the famous Zayed Sports City Stadium in the Abudhabi was nice and colourful to watch (“IPL 2020 in UAE: Fans soak up the excitement as action goes live”, Gulf News, September 19). The initial speech by the honourable Minister of Culture Youth and Social development, Sheikh Mubarak bin Nahyan about the game, which will last 55 days, was inspiring. Even though Chennai Super Kings(CSK) won the toss, skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni elected to field. The initial four overs were very thunderous with good hits by the openers, skipper Rohit Sharma and Quinton De Kock. Piyush Chawla took Sharma's wicket, the leg spinner made a change in the game as the average score crossed more than nine runs per over. The following two wickets made the game not only more interesting but also challenging. After hitting 42 runs, Saurabh Tiwary brought the score to a good figure. Chennai Super King's Rayudu score an excellent 71 runs, and Du Plessis’ 58 made a remarkable victory for the CSK. Both the teams played very well with a limited score—congratulations to Dhoni and his men.From Mr K RagavanBengaluru, India
