Deccan Chargers, who finished at the bottom of the inaugural Indian Premier League (IPL), began the second edition with a bang, scoring an emphatic eight-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders in the fourth match of the Twenty2O league at the Newlands here Sunday.

It was an all-round show by the Deccan Chargers, who excelled in all the three departments of the game. The bowlers, Rudra Pratap Singh (4-22) and Fidel Edwards, supported by some superb fielding, bowled a tight line and length to restrict Knight Riders for a paltry 101 in 19.4 overs.
