But  de Villiers remained unfazed and turned aggressive, finishing the game  in style, hitting a whopping 72 runs in 3.5 overs, including an unbeaten  43-run partnership with Syed Mohammad.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Though Royal Challengers&#8217; openers Dilshan and Chris Gayle (26) laid  the foundation with a solid 91-run first wicket partnership, the quick  departure of the Jamaican southpaw, followed by substitute captain Virat  Kohli and Pathan made the Deccan Chargers fancy a surprise win though  languishing at the bottom of the table.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With two wickets for 28, Amit Mishra was Deccan Chargers&#8217; most  successful bowler, while Singh, Anand Rajan and Ashish Reddy shared one  wicket each.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, put to bat first, Deccan Chargers hit an imposing target of  181 for just two wickets in the stipulated 20 overs, as Royal  Challengers bowlers failed to contain their openers Daniel Harris and  Shikhar Dhawan, who had put up 86-run partnership for the first wicket  in 11.5 overs.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Making a sedate start, Harris (47 in 41 balls) and Dhawan (73 not out  in 52 balls) steadied the innings with quick running between the  wickets during the first six overs of power play and stepping up the  score to make 50 in 44 balls.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Harris lofted four sixes and two fours while Dhawan remained unbeaten with 10 hits to the boundaries and one six.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Return of Sri Lankan legendary spinner Muthaiah Muralitharan in place  of captain Daniel Vettori, who opted to sit out for the first time in  this tournament, was greeted by the frenzied fans as he contained the  Deccan Chargers, giving away only 18 runs in four overs though he was  not lucky to get a wicket.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Attempt for a quick single ended the partnership with Harris getting run out by Kohil of through by Syed Mohammed.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>New comer Prashanth Parameshwaran was the lone successful bowler to  have caught and bold Cameron White for 45 in 24 balls with three sixes  and two fours.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Deccan Chargers captain Kumara Sngakkara remained not out with six.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deccan Chargers<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Harris run out (Kohli\/Syed Mohammad) 47<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Shikhar Dhawan not out 73<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Cameron White c &amp;
