Viral IPL Video: The IPL’s inaugural match had a significant impact on the cricketing world, as it ushered in a new era of cricket, which soon became a global phenomenon. The league’s unique format, featuring a mix of international and domestic players, along with the involvement of team owners and Bollywood stars, made it an instant hit with fans across the world.
McCullum goes all gun blazing
The match between RCB and KKR appeared to be a dull affair, but McCullum’s brilliant performance stole the show. Opening the innings with Sourav Ganguly, McCullum hit 10 fours and 13 sixes, making a mockery of a bowling attack that included Zaheer Khan, Jacques Kallis, and Praveen Kumar.
KKR posted a mammoth total of 222/3, and RCB, with a batting line-up of superstars like Rahul Dravid, Virat Kohli, Kallis, and Mark Boucher, failed to chase down the target, as they got all out for 82 in 15.1 overs against an attack of bowlers such as Ishant Sharma, Ajit Agarkar, and Ashok Dinda. Despite the one-sided result, McCullum’s performance remained the highlight of the match.
