Indian Premier League - General Discussion

Great over by yadav but what are harsha and KP talking about serious pace. Most of the balls were mid 130s

Looked more than that while watching live.

Ridiculous shot by Uthappa. Good bowling by Yadav. Not express pace but still enough to trouble the batsmen. He should be used primarily in the PP. But he's way too expensive at the death.

KKR need a big partnership now.

 

[Yash.]

Umesh Yadav, you beautiful!

 

[abhi_jacko]

Kkr still firm favorites

And I just saw umesh bowl one at 141. That's pretty good pace

 

[Yash.]

Umesh Yadav bowled just too good today.

RCB should’ve played another bowler.

Just checked our schedule and noticed a crazy thing:

 

[SaiSrini]

Lets see how he does against eng,aus,pak,wi,afg.

He should ideally have probability of more success against those teams because most of them are non-subcontinental teams who have a profound weakness of facing upto spin bowling (except Pakistan, who like any subcontinent team, face spinners better than most).

Big game against the Royals tomorrow. This team is really good but I am confident SRH can beat them especially the fact that they are playing at home.

Although Hales is likely going to play tomorrow, I would go with this lineup:

Dhawan
Saha
Williamson
Pandey
Shakib
Yusuf Pathan
Nabi
Bhuvi
Rashid
Sandeep
Kaul

For the past few seasons, the Hyd pitch has seen to favour spin bowlers. Since it's so spin friendly, I'd go with Nabi as the fourth overseas player. He can give at least two overs, maybe share it with Shakib getting two. He can give also give two overs if someone's having a bad day as well. Nabi's proved he can tonk the ball around as well, he demonstrated this in the BBL and other t20 games. Having Pathan and Nabi as finishers would be ideal for SRH, and you've got Rashid Khan who can hit out as well.

Bowling is clearly our strength, but the lack of a reliable batsman in the batting order prevents SRH from being top favorites. Hope they can get a win and a good start to the season

Not that close...

2015 IPL had CSK vs KKR on 28th April and KKR vs CSK on 30th.

Lol, but why?

 

[SaiSrini]

Kedar Jadhav has been ruled out of IPL 2018
http://www.espncricinfo.com/thestands/content/story/1142815.html

Considering what he did in the first game and the price tag he was bought with, it's a hugely massive loss for CSK! What does the rules/regulations say? Can CSK seek for a replacement for him? They already have lost Santner to an injury too.

----
David Willey almost about to be signed by CSK as replacement for Mitch Santner. Waiting for IPL approval

Will be a great replacement. Willey being a fast bowler will boost CSK's fast bowling stocks. Also being a big hitting batsman, he will cover up for Jadhav and Santner's loss. Hope his signing is approved.

 

[Yash.]

The mini David Warner goes run out.

Surprised to see Stanlake playing. Will be exciting to see the eiffel tower bowl with Bhuvi and Kaul.

 

[LiveLoveABD]

I'm amazed how Rahane is a part of the IPL let alone as a captain!

 

[Yash.]

Billy gets Ben!

Great bowling from Stanlake.

 

[Yash.]

So we win the match easily! Dhawan shows his batting class.

It was a good move to open with Saha. I hope they continue this foreward.
