Sangakkara, White lead Chargers to their second win of IPL 5

The highest third-wicket partnership of 157 runs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Kumar Sangakarra and Cameron White steered Deccan Chargers to their second win in the fifth edition. Incidentally, it was also the highest stand for any wicket in IPL-V. Pune Warriors came tantalisingly close to the 187-run target before losing by 13 runs at the Barabati Stadium here yesterday.
