Exactly the pitch CSK needed! The ball started holding up towards the finishing stages of the CSK innings itself, making it hard for Dube, Ruturaj and Dhoni to get the big hits going. I think it was an error from Cummins to rely too much on the dew and the last game heroics of Stoinis, to choose...
Sanju Samson's name is growing to deafening levels for T20 WC selection. I have a feeling that this time, the noise has gotten very loud for the selectors and Rohit/Dravid to ignore him from the squad. I just cannot see any reason why he would be kept out of the squad. Not only does he need to...
CSK not making it to the playoffs. Cant see them with this kind of a bowling. Hope they release Deepak Chahar and release that 14cr that they wasted on him. This is going to be 2020, but I hope Ruturaj is persisted with his captaincy and allowed to pick his squad at the mega auction next year...
Karn Sharma would definitely want to have a word with DK in the dresssing room and ask "why didn't you trust me?". Karn is an IPL veteran and has had some extremely valuable innings with the bat (for SRH) and if DK has trusted him a tiny bit, both of them could've finished the game for RCB!
The pitch was not as conducive to batting in the first innings and with the dew, it just got better and better! The balls that got Rahane and Ruturaj out, the bounce was so uneven. And we could see the change when CSK started scoring fast from the 17th over onwards.
This was a "win the toss...
They waited on Conway's injury to see what was going to happen with Fizz and his return to Bangladesh. When they found out that Fizz can't be kept any longer, they decided to replace Conway with Gleeson since Fizz cannot be replaced as he is returning back for international related work.
Seeing...
Excellent win that for CSK! Lost the toss at Wankhede, defending at Wankhede against the arch rivals who have some massive hitters and yet defended it!
The turning point was Hardik bowling the 20th over. With Madhwal having an over left and Hardik having bowled very scarcely this season, it...
Does Dinesh Karthik really want to quit IPL after this season? I mean if MSD can play till 42, DK can easily play another mega auction cycle of 3 more years (he is just 38).
Hope DK can take back his retirement announcement and put himself up in the mega auction. His dream of a 'CSK selection'...
I would also pick Riyan Parag for the T20 WC, coz he also has an added bonus of being a useful part time bowler. If the wickets in USA/WI spin (which could be possible), he can chip in very useful overs.
His batting has been superlative and the boy looks extremely motivated (he even got...
Why is the man batting so low? Just WHY? If he is this good, no need to prepare people of his farewell. The man has just too much of mass these days!!! That one handed six was brilliant!! And a lot of big hits on the off side too.
He resurrected NRR damage, he got some serious match pressure...
Nothing wrong with Hardik and to be fair, MI bought back their homegrown player who became a successful captain in another franchise, as MI were looking to phase a struggling Rohit out early. Rohit's batting returns were consistently underwhelming in many IPL's till now and also MI were not...
Early days, but I think we might’ve cracked the ‘captaincy transition’ at CSK finally. I hope they have seen enough in Gaikwad’s captaincy to persist with him even if turbulence happens to the team this season. I’m confident he had a hand at Rizvi’s promotion over Jadeja (fans on social
media...
Enjoy! Hoping you got a lower stand. I saw the players like ants from The K upper stand on Friday vs RCB!
But still, it’s a lot of fun at Chepauk with the crowd energy, the Marina breeze, the food, etc. and I predict it’ll be a tough game with Rashid and Sai Kishore dangerous after their first...
Opening ceremony was so boring and stupid!! A few tracks by AR Rahman brought out the roars, but you gotta position it more for the fans who visit!!! They decided to promote Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Chamkila… :facepalm:noway
Watched the game live in the stadium!!! Had to leave 40 mins before it ended coz the crowd was maddening and I had to reach the opp end of Chennai for my home!!! Got a tkt through a friends friend for 3x original price (corporate complimentary tkt).
Amazing atmosphere!!! Absolutely worth it...
Two more franchises add blue to their jerseys - RCB and Punjab! So annoying… RCB were actually great with their red and black combo!
SRH, CSK and KKR are the best ones now. SRH have done a very good job of bringing in their SAT20 jersey, which looks different and unique (in a good way).
CSK and the tickets scam continues! After 3 hrs of truly mind bending stress, I’ve given up on the idea of watching the game in the stadium. I don’t want to support black marketers (already at 60,000 rupees for a 7,000 rupee ticket).
X (Twitter) is a bloodbath right now from those who can’t...
Oh nice!!! Yea he landed in Chennai yesterday and already the "mass elevation, connecting him to Vijay and Rajinikanth songs/dialogues from last year films" has truly kickstarted!
I am eagerly waiting for tickets to open for the season opener on March 22nd (CSK v RCB). Will be in Chennai this...
