The fifth edition of the
Indian Premier League is perhaps going to be the last season for Kings XI Punjab
captain, Adam Gilchrist. He is making his mind to take retirement from India’s Twenty20 based cricket tournament. He expressed
his wish of not taking part in the IPL as a player from the next season after
his team received a defeat at the hands of Delhi Daredevils.
Kings XI Punjab had no
choice but to win their last league match against the top placed Delhi
Daredevils at the HPCA stadium to keep their hope alive of remaining in the competition
and move into the four-team play-offs.
After his team lost the
match by six wickets against Delhi Daredevils, Gilchrist said perhaps he had
played his last match in the IPL. He has not yet said anything about his future
plan.
Kings Xi Punjab scored 141
for the loss of eight wickets. It was obviously a score that can be chased and
for that he credited the Daredevils bowlers for their good bowling. According
to him, the score was 20 runs short of making a competitive total against the
opponent team.
