Still away this week so no article unfortunately from us but what a brilliant way to win from an extremely tough situation. We looked down and out at the halfway stage but economical and wicket taking bowling showed we can win in all circumstances now making it 4/4!

ATLéTICO DE KOLKATA POST MATCH REVIEW
​

Atlético De Kolkata celebrating their second victory in the league against Hyderabad Hurricanes which was easy as cooking noodles. Winning the toss ADK captain Rohit choose to bowl which was a wise decision given the condition of the pitch. Supporting the captains decision the Big Bird Jo started striking from the first over. Jo managed to bring down Herschelle Gibbs in the first ball of the innings and Lara in the next ball, we were able to see the range of Garner who was disappointed with his performance in the last match. Giving two wickets in two balls Hyderabad Hurricanes were relying big on their middle order to thrive but the shock came to fans when Sangakkara was given a slow LBW in out-swing bowled by Doeschate, Atlético De Kolkata is lucky not to have Review system in the league has that was a very close call and could have gone either way if it was reviewed. Struggling to face Atlético De Kolkata bowling attack Sachin and Azharuddin joined hands to form a steady partnership but it did not last long has Yuvi managed to take the wicket of Sachin who is considered to be his mentor. Breaking this partnership following Hyderabad Hurricanes batsman never had a real chance against Atlético De Kolkata bowling attack. At last HH ended up scoring just 217 all out in 43.2 overs. Garner and Doeschate picked 3 wickets each.

Having a good batting line up, Atlético De Kolkata players entered the pitch confidently to chase the competitive target. Dhawan gave his wicket in the early stage of the game to Vass which was the only momentum where Hyderabad Hurricanes would have hoped to win the game but it was shattered but the remaining batsman. Rohit, Amala and Doeschate played their parts by contributing 30s and 40s respectively but the real game changer was Yuvi's innings of 78 which took the game long way back from Hyderabad Hurricanes. Atlético De Kolkata was able to make an comfortable 6 wickets win.

Yuvraj Singh was awarded the man of the match for his all rounder performance.​

Now lets move on to the post match Interview, first lets hear it from the winning manager.

@NaviN GandhI "We are happy with the performance of the bowlers, we were worried about their performance but they have proved to be effective in this game. All credits for winning this game goes to @Aravind. has he was the one who made some major change to the line up. Hyderabad Hurricanes are a very strong team on papers, they have some huge names, it is shocking to see them fail. well shocking and happy. Hope we carry this momentum to the next game as well. Thank you"

Bowlers bowled brilliantly especially the great Joel Garner,which was backed up with some great batting especially Yuvi who show cased his all round ability in this match,our team is well balanced with great specialist in all departments,hope we will continue to perform in this manner.

Moving to the loosing manager.

There's something going one, but we dunno what is that. how on earth a team with Sachin, Lara, Azhar, Gibbs, Sanga, Boult, Vaas, Murali and many more, lose four matches in a row.

it is really frustrating and disappointing about this. one of the best team on paper is giving out 2 free points for every opposition .

This is a happy moment for all the ADK fans out there. Like manager Navin said lets hope they carry this momentum through the season.

Moving on to the current standings, Kolkata Knight Riders and Southampton Samurai are comfortably placed at the top of the table whereas all other teams except Bayern Munich and Hyderabad Hurricanes are fighting for the third place sharing same points in the table, lets hear from the league manager @PCA.
