Cape Town: Unlike last year there hasn't been too much controversy yet in the IPL. But is one brewing? After the first few games, the decision to take a tactical 'time-out' after every 10 overs is becoming the subject of an intense debate.

Karan Goel was going great guns for the Kings XI Punjab, creaming the Delhi Daredevils for fours and sixes. At the half stage of their 12-over contest, Kings XI were going at 11 runs an over.

But instead of building the momentum, Kings XI were forced into the dugout, only to return seven and a half minutes later and face the canny Daniel Vettori, and could only manage 37 in their last six overs.
