South African allrounder Albie Morkel has did it for Chennai Super Kings during their IPL 2012 playoff against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Until the 19^th over, it was all certain that RCB will romp back home with a thrilling victory over CSK. However, it was Morkel who made all the difference with his supernatural innings during which he scored 28 off just 7 deliveries.

The winning performance of Morkel has overshadowed the majestic innings of Chris Gayle for RCB. Faf du Plessis set the platform for CSK with his heroic efforts, which was later continued by skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Virat Kohli was at the receiving end who bowled the 19^th over, which went for 28 runs and that almost eased off the pressure from a no-win situation for CSK. RCB skipper Daniel Vettori was left clueless and decided to hand the ball to Vinay Kumar during the crucial final over.

West Indies allrounder Dwayne Bravo held the innings throughout and ensured no further casualties along with Ravindra Jadeja, a transfer from Rajasthan Royals scoring four runs in the last ball. During the post match conference, skipper Dhoni admitted that they have got lucky to have three allrounders in the form of Morkel, Bravo, and Jadeja.

With his stint in the IPL, Albie Morkel expects to cement his place in the South African side like his brother Morne Morkel. He is set to play for Somerset next giving him enough scope to perform and get selected for England series between July and August.
