Games like the one that recently concluded at Kolkata's mammoth Eden Gardens stadium certainly intrigue and interest me far more than the slug fest that was played out between RCB and the Chennai Super Kings yesterday. Today's game between the Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders was more of a battle of attrition and the team that held it's nerve till the very end kept a cooler head throughout deservedly came up trumps; the game that unfolded today certainly had it all; some classic spin bowling that made the opposition batsmen look like a bunch of nincompoops who did not have the faintest clue about which way the ball was turning, some scintillating cricket shots though far and in few between, acts of desperation on the field where fielders flung themselves around the boundary lines risking life and limb and last but not the least a slog swept six of the first ball of the 20th over of the KKR innings that drew the curtains on this highly intriguing and fascinating game of cricket, give me more such humdingers seven days of the week........
