Warm-up Game
The match between Cape Cobras and Rajasthan Royals was billed as the "Clash of the Champions" due to both teams being champions of their country's Twenty20 leagues. However, as an IPL warmup, both teams fielded understrength teams in order to try out new blood, with only 4 of Rajasthan's 2008 title-winning team playing the warm-up. Cape Cobras were the victors.
| 11 April 19:45 (D/N) |
Cape Cobras 142/7 (20 overs) |
v | Rajasthan Royals 115 (19 overs) |

Famous quotes containing the word game:
“Even an attorney of moderate talent can postpone doomsday year after year, for the system of appeals that pervades American jurisprudence amounts to a legalistic wheel of fortune, a game of chance, somewhat fixed in the favor of the criminal, that the participants play interminably.”
—Truman Capote (1924–1984)
