The Deccan Chargers (DC) were a franchise cricket team based in Hyderabad, India, that competed in the Indian Premier League (IPL), a professional Twenty20 cricket (T20) league in India. They were one of the eight teams that competed in the 2010 Indian Premier League, making their third appearance in all IPL tournaments. The team was captained by Adam Gilchrist and coached by Darren Lehmann with Kanwaljit Singh and Mike Young as assistant coaches.[1][2]
They began their season by losing their opening fixture of the IPL on 12 March against the Kolkata Knight Riders but five consecutive wins at the end of the group stage helped them to qualify for the semi-finals.[3][4] They lost to Chennai Super Kings by 38 runs in the semi-final and to Royal Challengers Bangalore by 9 wickets in the third-place playoff to finish the tournament at fourth and failed to qualify for the 2010 Champions League Twenty20.[5][6]
