It was an important match for both the team as both lost the opening match in the league. The overseas players of the Rajasthan team were still not present and looked like they were the under dogs in the tournament but they proved it wrong at the end! The Mohali team led by Yuvraj singh batted first and they were restricted to a total of 166 by the Jaipur bowlers with captain Shane Warne spearheading the attack. He picked up three wickets. Shane Watcon lead the batting attack and the Royals won without any big hassles. Watson was declared the man of the match for his knock of 76 from 49 balls.
