IPL @ Chennai Chepauk - April 13 2010

Everyone must be aware of the just concluded IPL 2010. I was playing the "Nokia Main Bhi Coach" in the site http://kkrcoach.in and I was lucky enough to win Goodie bag and a match ticket to Chepauk for CSK vs KKR match held on April 13. I was awarded a 1000 rupees ticket and as many of my friends told about the chaos at the stadium, I started early as my pick up cab from KKR arrived at 2.30 pm for 8 pm match :-)

I reached the stadium around 3.45 and from there started my long and laborious wait outside the staidum. Finally, at 5.45 pm, I was allowed inside and I had my first view of the chepauk stadium live in my life :-). Players were out by 6.10pm for warm up and I was excited to see all the players.

Match viewing experience was very good even though I had a feel that it is a small ground ;-)
Had dinner at 10pm in the stadium, luckily I had my office caterer in the counter who gave me 50% off (lucky me :-P).

Though the match was pretty one sided with Chennai wrapping it up with more than 5 overs to spare, we enjoyed it thoroughly. The crowd behavior needs a special mention as they cheered each and every shot and wicket from both the teams.

Overall, I was very satisfied with my lucky prize :-) Looking forward to more in next IPL :-)

Kudos to KKR and SRK
