Losing on home ground hurts: Laxman
Deccan Chargers, one of the strongest teams in the Indian Premier League, lost their second match on the trot as they were thrashed by Delhi Daredevils, on their home ground – the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.

What I believe is Deccan Charges need one most experienced captain instead of Laxman. He is a test player and completely unaware of 20-20 format game and getting frusturated. He could have made C.Vaas bowl the last over againset Rajasthan Royals but I don’t know what made him to give the bal in Symonds court though Symonds have failed to impress with a ball. Herschelle Gibbs could be the better option for captaincy.
