IPL 24th match - Rajasthan Royals v Chennai Super Kings

[Cricketman]

Thushara can bat. He's a big hitter of the ball, should be in the top 7 if not top 6.

Not sure about Badani.

Perfect line up. Only change which I prefer is Gony over Balaji. Or I will still gamble with Tyagi for Balaji. No point in getting 1 wicket and giving away 50 runs in 4 overs. Balaji is competing with Chawla to give most sixes in IPL ( chawla - 35 sixes and Balaji - 30 sixes ) & no wonder why I always rate him(Balaji) as non threatening bowler.

But Dhoni will go with unchanged lineup.

So Joginder Sharma will play again?

I really feel bad for Dhoni. He will never have a good bowling attack whether its India or Super Queens.

CSK should bring back R.Sathish and Dinesh Karthik(your fav. player ) in next edition of IPL.

If Hayden can get back to previous IPL forms, definitely we should be strong enough despite the weak bowling attack. But I know this is a high ask from Hayden - very tough for a player who has rested from international circuit for ages & been asked to display a heroic performance everytime.

ALso for Rajasthan Royals - Yusuf is not a big deal, he will fail anyways against classic deliveries. But who is going to deliver that classic ball? Morkel, Murali or Ashwin can do it!

He is in good form. And Raina also. Thats it.

Hayden has had only one success (against Delhi) in the 6 games. According to law of averages, he is due one tomorrow. @ suren: Balaji is a better option than Gony and Tyagi. Both have shown that they dont pick many wickets and also go for plenty. Balaji has performed better than both in this edition so far.

But he still does well with whatever he gets. I know you will now jump and say CSK havent done well so far in this IPL, but remember they played 3 games without Dhoni.

That is why he is our best captain after Ganguly. And he deserves a better bowling attack now. We find it hard to defend even 400 and still he doesnt lose his cool. He is captain cool. So CSK please release Dhoni if you can't find good bowlers. I will support you for 2 matches at least.

Hayden will hit today! Mark my words!

 

[surendar]

Hit whom? Mongoose has over-hyped Hayden really this season is what I feel. I think without that Mongoose, he would have topped the runs table like how he did previously.

 

[Varun]

Hit whom?

Even I don't know.

 

[naresh091]

YES! Arun Karthik is in.But am still not sure why Joker Sharma is in the side.He is the only weak link in the team now.Soon we can even replace him with Tyagi or Balaji.

 

[Varun]

Can someone tell me why Manpreet Gony is not playing IPL matches?

 

[CaptainOZ]

Good start - 23 off the first 2 overs

 

[Varun]

Michael Lumb has been in good form recently.

 

[rocky_pratik]

Lumb is Out

Do you think RR can post more than 160?

 

[Varun]

If Yusuf works out!
