I'm with you on this. People are going through really tough time psychologically and they find escape in watching their favorites playing. But I just don't get why franchise owners and players' families are allowed to stadiums. Fans switch to IPL for their favorite players and teams, not to see...
I actually realize now that it was a rather tough call and not a straightforward one. You had to pick KW since he was in great flow last night. Also only because a SLA was going to bowl, they must have decided to go for a left handed batsman in Dave, and that's why he took the strike first ball...

He doesn't often use it until death overs, whereas this pitch demands 4/6 balls per over in powerplay to be low paced to avoid any comfort for batsmen. That's why DD opened with Stoinis and today PK opened with Henriques. MI likes to play in structured fashion, but it hasn't been helping much...
