Another week has gone in the Indian Premier League, and we are left with only four teams in the tournament, with the first semi-final match being played tonight (30/5) between the Delhi Daredevils and the Rajasthan Royals. The second semi-final will be held tomorrow between The Kings XI Punjab and The Chennai Super Kings. Both Semi-Finals, are being played at Mumbai Wankhede Stadium, and the final will be held at Mumbai's DY Patil Stadium, which has the capacity to host 55,000 people.
Both semi-final matches should be very intersting, and although Rajasthan is on top of the table, they will still have to face a tough Delhi side who made a strong come-back to get into the top four.

Week 3 Roundup
We are just past the half way point of the Premier League, and already have seen so many controversies, and such amazing cricket. After 29 matches, the Kings XI Punjab have found their way to the top of the tournament, after a poor start to the tournament. The Kings XI are on the same points as the Rajasthan Royals, who have been the surprise contenders in the tournament, after they were almost written off before the season began. At the other end of the table are the Bangalore Royal Challengers and the Deccan Chargers, both on 4 points after winning only 2 games each.
Some good news for the Kolkata Knight Riders and their fans is that Shoaib Akhtar has been cleared of his charges by the Pakistan Cricket Board, and will be allowed to play in the tournament. Kolkata desperately need the added boost of Shoaib, as they are currently 5th in the table, and are therefore at risk of missing out on making it into the Semi-Finals.
