NO PATHAN???:crying
i want punjab to win so that the tourney opens up//

 

[Gurjot95]

Really improtant match for KXI as they have to win this if they want to go for semis and it will be a big task as this match is against already semifinalist and on 1st position, Delhi Daredevils. I will be great if KXI rested Sree.

DD are in good form,they are really doing well, for Punjab its a must win situation, Yuvraj and Kumar Sangakkara will fire today thats wat i feel, Pathan can bat a bit,he can also swing the ball compared to VRV,i feel Pathan should have been there. even Chawla hasent done well,he had a good season last time...

 

[Raj_Aryan]

Big expectations from Lee also, Nehra is bowling well for DD,he is in good touch,overall DD have an edge,but its 20-20 nothing can be said before,anything can happen....

 

[Pranav]

I want Delhi to win this one. I want Mumbai to be in the semis, so if Punjab lose this match, they are out of the competition.

 

[SciD]

No chance for Kings here. Royal pasting instored.

 

[Raj_Aryan]

Sehwag comes back to opening..its a leathal combination Sehwag and Gambir,but they havent been that destructive as they were in last season...

 

[ZexyZahid]

Sehwag is already out by Lee some minutes ago.

 

[King Cricket]

The match is on! 13 runs 11 balls! Ooooo boy!!!! What a tournament it has been so far! And the funny thing is that it is still open. Still, any team except for the KKR, can go to the semis! Any team! If Punjab wins this, then that will make the situation really heated! Woha!

King Cricket added 2 Minutes and 10 Seconds later...

Sensible batting by Sang and Irf! KXI is nearly home! :happy Fantastic match reading by these two players! And the tournament.....it's boiling!

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Just the thing i wanted more pressure on Mumbai :banana2

 

[shantanu_rooney]

Great win there for Punjab. This will add some more pressure on Mumbai but looking at the last two matches ie RCB v CSk and DD v KXI, I feel we can beat both of them, but we need to bat sensibly and dont lose a lot of wickets because or bowling has been pretty good. So still hopes for Mumbai now...:banana2

 

[leftarmlegspin]

Mumbai need to stop changing their team around. You deserve every loss coming to you when the order is constantly changed.

 

[aussie1st]

Clearly DD resting players, Nannes and Warner would have made the difference

 

[nikhil_99]

Look at nehra's bowling figures, 4 overs ::1 maiden::6 runs ::1 wicket,great...
Thanks to Sangakkara and pathan...
