Group A (Deccan Chargers, Somerset, Trinidad & Tobago)

[piriyanth]

Deccan Chargers has pretty strong batting line up.

 

[iridescentt]

Any word if Symonds is actually playing? There has not been any decent media coverage on this as far as I can tell.

Yeah I know confirmation on this as well for my fantasy squad.

 

[Masood]

I will Go with Deccan Chargers ...:happy

 

[treva]

Somerset will get cained. C A I N E D

Oh really, Avroneel...

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

am I right in thinking NRR will not determine who goes through, and it's runs scored?

that puts the teams at

Somerset 263
deccan 153
T&T 150


so if T&T post 113 or more and deccan chase it, somerset are out. similarly if deccan post a large score and T&T fail to chase it but do make 114 somerset go out.

but am I wrong in thinking that while in this group things will be ok as deccan have more runs than trinidad&tobago so were they to win they'd automatically have more runs and thus it would just depend on the size of the score whether T&T or somerset go out, but could this system not lead to a team winning, but going out because they are chasing a low target and can't get enough runs back?

Chargers are in deep trouble...They've to rewrite the history if they are planning to continue their campaign at CLt20.
Winning match in Hyderabad is the History which needs to be rewritten.
They played 8 official games in which they lost 8..!!And out of them, 6 matches were last ball thrillers.

And Roy has out standing record of conceding 30 runs off 1 Over to Virender Sehwag and giving 17 runs to Shane Warne off last over.
So, TT gonna make it as Advantage..

Hopefully if DC rewrites the history, it'll be good..

Mate, don't waste your time is typing stats..
DC will lose the next game even as they'll have to rewrite history of RGICS to win the next game..

I think this is the only Group where no team reached the next stage yet.

Trescothick flies home from India | Cricket News | Champions League Twenty20 2009 | Cricinfo.com

Knew this would happen.

 

[treva]

It's a real shame. Couldn't care about the people who will say it's made up and all that because they clearly are too simple minded.

Hopefully now it'll give Craig Kieswetter a chance to shine opening the innings.

 

[Sartaj]

Tsk tsk...i don't actually blame Tresco...i feel sorry for him.
He wouldn't have thought of CL when he was playing in England.

 

[pcfan123]

Its not PTSD Tresco, go fight in Iraq for a bit then you can complain about anxiety and depression.

 

[MUFC1987]

How about you go away, find out something about what is up with Trescothick and then come back? Your ignorance makes you look stupid. Which may well be the case for all I know.

Personally, I'm gutted for the bloke, it's a credit to the guys character that he even got this far just to help the club out. Top bloke and hopefully he can get back to scoring thousands of runs domestically again next year.

 

[Sartaj]

Its like he doesn't really have to do that for a living.
He can still earn enough playing for Somerset in England.
