The third week of the Indian Premier League separated the gap the between the Strongest teams and the weakest teams. While Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad cruised to stunning wins, Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils succumbed to spectacular losses. The riveting action did not fail in providing great action and we witnessed the incredible moments from the IPL. Here’s a recap of five best moments.

Shane Watson’s Century against RR, 20th April, 17th Match

Opening up the Super Kings’ innings, Watson was severe on the opposition bowlers from the word go. Watching his opening partner Ambati Rayudu (12) take the walk back to the pavilion in the fourth over did not have any effect on the 36-year former Australian all-rounder.

After being dropped at first slip by Rahul Tripathi in the first over, Watson did not look back as he scored three consecutive sixes in the next two overs. At the end of the powerplay, Watson stood at 38* (21) in the powerplay.

On the second ball of the ninth over, Watson hit a six over long-on to reach his half-century. He followed it up with a four and a six off the next two balls. At the halfway mark, Chennai had reached 107-1, out of which Watson had scored 62* (32).

In the 18th over, with a single off Jaydev Unadkat through the off-side, Watson completed his third IPL century, an innings which put Chennai Super Kings in a dominating position. Watson eventually got out on the penultimate delivery of the innings, scoring 106 (57) with the help of nine fours and six sixes. This is his highest-ever IPL score.
