    Oram to Kohli
    game over and Bangalore make it to the final! It's a half volley on the pads and he whips it past midwicket, several red shirts make their way to the outfield, we have a fairytale climax in the final, the two bottom-placed teams from last year will fight it out this time for the trophy

    Oram to Taylor
    it's a waist high full toss and Taylor moves across and clubs it over deep squre leg, Koertzen signals a four at first and the decision goes upstairs, it's a six and a no-ball as well

    Murali to Kohli
    even Murali isn't spared! As Ian Chappell often says, if you want to chip down the track you might as well go the full distance and that's what Kohli does, gets right to the pitch of the ball and slams him several rows back over the sight screen
