mumbai can only beat under 15s

That might be true, but you would admit that 214 was a heavy ask for any team, especially one that have little batting like Mumbai Champs, even in the long format of the game, some teams would fall short!!!
Ok let me ask you, every series or tournament has a weak team, ICL has Mumbai, what about the IPL, which team you believe is their weak team?

On paper it was Rajasthan & Banglore team (Dravid's team)who was weak,and Deccan Chanrges was strongest,but it we know what has happened.

Banned batsman Mohammad Yousuf on Friday said the attitude of Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik towards him and the shabby treatment by the cricket board and national selectors had compelled him to join the 'rebel' Indian Cricket League (ICL).

In my opinion he was really a champion bastman,many team members,X players are saying bad things about their captain,even in Pak these things must be familiar,so this affects more to the team,also they now cant select him for upcoming India series,as he has joined ICL.

A very disappointing score by the Warriors, expected at least 160 based on how they have played in the last few, but today no one got going.

Yousuf too is responsible to some extent in this entire saga.
He had been offered captaincy after Inzi's departure,after Younis turned it down. The situation would have been different if he were in charge of Pakistan now.

Fantastic win for the Badshahs. Rana Naved > What a legend! :hpraise

He gets 318 in 4 overs with the ball and then comes in at number 3 and smashes 64 off 32 balls with 5 sixes!

Badshahs are in contention for the Finals now. Chennai will be a tough game though.

Well icy I agree with you, but I guess you have an understanding to what guys like him holds dear to heart, pride, respect etc... I guess he must have felt like the next thing because Younis did not want it, and if I am not mistaken, it was the second time Younis turned down the captaincy of Pakistan, correct me if I am wrong.

Younis did a volte-face thrice. After turning down the captaincy ,he actually took over the role of Pakistan's vice-captain.

Yousuf,on the other hand,was exactly the way you mentioned above.Also,I believe his proximity to Inzi lead to this decision.

Can't believe Dhaka are out of it. Rafique was too expensive and Rana Naved played like a champ.

Yeah they are out, but one must admit that they have done well, seeing its there first time, and even a late addition as well. I see them doing even better next time around.

Lahore's batting is too good against Chennai.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Yousuf is showing he can play Twenty20. He scored 40 runs of 28 balls He actually showed it a time ago also in Pakistani domestic cricket in the ABN Amro Twenty20 tournament.

Azhar Mahmood scored of the first ball he faced, and the last ball of the innings, a six. That six brought the total of 211-4 against Chennai.

Yes Zexy... Yousuf did well, and the more I look at the ICL the more I feel that the talent is deep in the whole league and competitive, I would love to see an ICL 11 take on an IPL 11.

I am seeing an ICL game online for my first time and it is amazing stuff, great crowd too. Well it looks like Ian Harvey will win this match for Superstars if he keep hitting like this and if they keep bowling so short!!!

WestIndian added 1 Minutes and 20 Seconds later...

Lahore must take wickets if they are to win this match. And another 6 by Harvey, that's his 4th.

 

[Pakistani Army]

Thank god Harvey has got out. I think we should win it from here as the asking rate is going up.
