Johannesburg, South Africa. -- The Deccan Chargers fought off Anil Kumble's 4 for 16 spell Sunday to defeat the Royal Challengers in the Indian Premier League cricket final in South Africa.

The Johannesburg thriller saw Herschelle Gibbs (53 not out) and Andrew Symonds (33 in 21 balls) take Hyderabad's total to 143-6 in 20 overs, enough to register a six-run win over the Bangalore team's 137 for 9 in the same number of overs, the BBC reported.

The Chargers thus erased their ignominious record of finishing at the bottom in the IPL's first season last year.

This year's matches were moved to foreign venues because of the month-long general elections in India and security concerns there.
