Stayed up till 2:30 in the morning to watch the match as Deccan Chargers, the winners of the wooden spoon in the competition last year scored a thrilling 6 run victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore to emerge the champions of Indian Premier League – 2009.
What an awesome month this has been. The chaddi gang routed in the elections. Deccan Chargers coming out of nowhere to win this year’s IPL. Twenty-20 world cup coming up in another 10 odd days. Yay.
Missing the sleep was worth it. Tonight, i will have a contented sleep 
It was a double whammy for Vijay Mallya yesterday. His Formula 1 team, Force India just missed out on the points table and his cricket team, Bangalore Royal Challengers just missed out in the finals.

Wohooos!!!! Congos to Gilly and DC…worthy champions!
Mallya’s been shouting that DC didn’t win…but RCB lost
It must have been great. I missed it.
Adam Gilchrist and Gibbs are both mine favorite players before IPL.
When I find both in one team,i was happy and i supported always to Deccan Chargers.
Congratulation to all “Deccan Chargers” Supporters.
Yeah, we believe you!
It was good to see DC winning it. Now, the attention turns to the up-coming ICC’s Twenty20 and seeing how ‘Team India’ goes about defending it!
