Good to see Mohammed Shami playing and doing well after all the fiasco of his personal life that took place in the past one month or so.

Jinxed!

Kapil Dev comes back for commentary.

Russell storm approachig.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Manjrekar is so annoying. Russel played yet another blinder. Well played Rana.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Also KKR are atleast 15 runs short from where they would have liked to be after Russels blitz. Need to get wickets quick to be able to win this.

 

[Yash.]

Tewatia bowled quite well.

Rohan Gavaskar and Manjrekar make an excellent combination.... Both talking utter bullsh*t so annoying to listen to both of them. At least Ian Bishop is talking some sense in the comm box. So much better to mute the TV.

Seeing Shivam Mavi I remember the three pacers impressed everyone in the U19 WC - Nagarkoti ,Mavi and Ishan Porel.The first two were bought by KKR in the auction but the latter was injured after the first game but recovered to play in the final two games any info whether he has picked any IPl contract or not?

Switch to starsports select they have Nasser Hussain ,KP , David Hussey ,Wiko , Dean Jones etc. and much better insight about the games as well compared to the cringes the manjrekars , gavaslars ,karthiks bring in ......

I dont know what people see's in Pant. He looks ugly when he cant execute his shots. Samson is better than him as a batsman and plays lovely shots . So i think samson should replace dhoni instead of Pant.

DD had a chance with Maxi hitting is everywhere but looks like they virtually have no chance by the way they are throwing their wickets away.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Finally KKR played well as a unit. Good batting, bowling and fielding has been good as well.

According to this, he went unsold. Surprising no one bid on him even though he had a great WC. Odd.

Similar thoughts. Pant scores quickly but mostly looks ugly in doing so while Samson is elegance and can score equally quick while can also play a composed knock when needed. Samson really should be in the Indian team as a backup keeper tbh. I will even try him at Test level instead of Saha.

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Poor batting by DD the required run rate was gettable @11 RPO they have just thrown it away by some mindless batting.

Just too far with that one. Test cricket requires real top class wicket keeping, and that is the only thing which Sanju lacks (especially when compared to Saha).
