15th Match, Group B - Mumbai v Royal Challengers Bangalore @ Durban

[AkshayS]

The decider for Group B , whichever team wins will have a foot in the semis. It's going to be exciting.

For RCB, if they win this one, they will reach the semis undoubtedly due to superior run-rate.

If MI thrashes RCB then their life will be easy, but at the same time they'll need some other matches go their way.

The easiest way for MI will be:
MI thrashes RCB
Guyana wins comfortably against Lions
Lions stuns RCB in a close game.

I'm supporting MI for this one too.
Time to discuss.


P.S.:As I post this, i can expect MI to lose.

MI got to the next round. I thought they were out of the competition. Cant see them going too far. RCB to win!

If Guyana manage to pull off a surprise win against Lions & MI win against RCB, then Sachin & Co do have a chance. But well, may the best deserve.

well, I do hope that Guyana pulls an upset tomorrow and MI will win this one to advance.

Royal Challengers Bangalore gonna take the revenge of their Semi Final defeat.
C'mon Durban, cheer RCB.

Everyone knows that MI gonna lose. Doesn't matter if you create the thread or someone else.
Just kidding.....

Come on Bangalore. I'm sure I will be shuttling through both teams as the match progresses but I really don't see Bangalore losing this one.

Pollard is absolutely key for MI.

 

[Mike23]

^ and Sachin too.

 

[pcfan123]

Steyn has been a bit disappointing this tournament, hoping he makes a solid contribution today.

 

[Varun]

Mumbai should win it. They look better on the paper, for Pollard can make more contribution than anyone else.

 

[pcfan123]

Pollard is due a failure and its a good time for one

Either way Mumbai would really have to thrash Bangalore to get ahead in RR of the Saffer team.

 

[Mike23]

Pollard goes for a duck!

Not sure where you got that from, but if they do win, which is looking likely then the group will be decided by RCB vs Lions.

Ideally I would like Mumbai to win this one, and then it means we could end up in a situation when no IPL teams are in the semis! :happy:happy:happy

Great on field presence by RCB fielders after first instance of No Ball catching.:hpraise

 

[Prithvi]

How often you see some orthodox cricketing shots in T20 cricket?
Rahul Dravid Rocks:hpraise!

Binnu added 7 Minutes and 43 Seconds later...

This match, irrespective of result, is my all time favorite T20 game!
Perfect orthodox cricket in super fast T20 format is only possible when legends like RD play:hpraise.
