The bowlers tried hard and picked up three wickets in total but were unsuccessful in defending the total. They will have to bounce in the Eliminator against the Gladiators.
The Deccan Gladiators, on the other hand, had a fantastic start to the competition but lost their way a bit. They managed to win four out of seven games and finished in fourth position. They lost to the Morrisville Samp Army in their last league game and despite that, they qualified for the playoffs.
