Who bought back this Laxman Sivaramakrishnan back in the commentry team? I need to mute my TV every now and then

Amazing knock by MSD!! He thrashed SRH to pulp today at his hometown Ranchi! Wonder how the noise in Ranchi must have been while Dhoni was murdering the opposition bowlers! And invaluable knock from Raina!

The dew is expected to play a big part, but if CSK can keep the extras down and bowl sensibly, they can win this despite the dew.

 

[zeustrojanstark]

Wow Wow! I was just jumping up and down. MSD THE BOSS!

Sir Murali Vijay...

1st Match - 1 ball 0
2nd Match - 2 ball 0
Next Match - May be 3 ball 0

Maggie has got a new brand ambassador

----------

What a carnage that was, Just awesome to watch that...
Mahi back with Bang Bang Bang at Ranchi... Fastest 50 in just 16 deliveries, broke Pollard's record of 18 balls-50

Poor Perera 3 overs 60 runs (he was my Power Player in fantasy league team tonight)

 

[Aravind.]

Mahi the mass an absolute smashing innings,poor perera .

 

[SaiSrini]

The 10th and the 11th over by Raina and Ashwin has tilted the match in CSK's favor. 3 crucial wickets of Pate, Duminy and the big fish Dhawan.

We still need Perera and Sammy. These guys are big hitters and can turn the game on its head.

----------

Dhoni needs to be very careful here. Jadeja got a pasting last game, and it seems to be continuing here (two sixes by Sammy off Jadeja's first three balls of this match). Can't afford to lose this one after getting to this kind of position.

Edit: Jadeja could kill us here! WTF!!!

----------

Too many easy runs being given here. This is going to go down the wire, unless CSK nips out Sammy.

----------

35 off 12 balls, wth Sammy still in! This is getting so so tense now. Dhoni had to ransack 61 runs off the last 18 balls to get CSK to 202. And Sammy needs just 38 off 12. And that too, when the dew is playing a big role.

SRH in front here? I hope not!

----------

That could be the nailing blow by Holder! Tremendous game, fluctuating ball after ball. First ball wicket, second ball six, third ball wicket. And next ball FOUR!!! Whoaaa......

 

[SambarVadai]

That was a pretty nail biting finish...Dhawan and Parthiv pouded in the first eight overs...Then came sammy to strike...he wasnt enough for the csk bowlers...After such a dismal start..I was shocked to see CSK's score as 170+..then I saw something on cricbuzz...5 sixes in one over....MSD bludgeoned Perera..What an innings...a superb match to watch till the end...hope csk carry on this momentum till the end of the tournament..

Hats off to Darren Sammy for mind-blowing efforts despite injury.

Bur real turning point of the match was Suresh Raina's over and 2 wickets of Parthiv-Duminy in quick succession, that created pressure on Dhawan who just gave away wicket to Ashwin.

 

[SaiSrini]

Its so invaluable to have fielders like Suresh Raina who can turn matches with their fielding. His brilliant direct hit to run out Parthiv turned the game immensely. I thought both him and Ashwin bowled brilliantly in those soapy conditions and picked mighty crucial wickets that derailed their chase. The fact that SRH was able to come that close to the total proved how valuable Raina and Ashwin's overs were to CSK's win.

 

[War]

Have heard about about this Hardus Viljeon bloke, but never seen him bowl before now. Damn he has real natural pace, clocking 150 mph with ease geez.

S Africa's pace stocks real serious right now.

 

[crazyrahul]

Officially Lions are out of the tournament. Bye Bye

Pollard finishing the remaining task, well batted by Smith

 

[Aravind.]

Looks like Chennai on the way to book their place in semi finals.

 

[Aravind.]

Csk into the semi finals.great performance by us so far hope we lift the trophy.

 

[zeustrojanstark]

Well played Super Kings.

 

[KrishnamurthiN]

Whistle Podu for Chennai SuperKings and Yeah it is good to see Vijay amidst runs and not ducks for a change
