Indian Premier League - General Discussion

[Targaryen]

I'm not interested in watching my team who aren't even trying.

You sure? So you understand how it feels when it comes to supporting an IPL franchise? RCB?

I completely disagree. Ali/De Grandhomme are useless at 8. I would personally not even play Ali this season because he's off after the first 5 games. And Kohli opening and AB at 3 is when RCB are at their destructive best!

Parthiv
Kohli
AB
Dubey
Hetmyer
Stoinis
Sundar/Negi/ Any other local batsman
Southee/Coulter-Nile
Umesh
Siraj
Chahal

I think that Virat should be removed as captain! no offence

I know. On another IPL forum someone asked why Ricky Ponting bites his nails so much!

But you can draw a comparison to Delhi last night and CSK innings, in the middle overs plodding along with no direction u til it fizzles out into a nothing score.

When CSK chase they have no plan B and it became boring to watch - when Bravo came in to bat the game was not lost but it looked as though he just wasn't trying.

I will hope for RCB that they can win today and get their mojo back but it will be tough particularly if Andre Russell is fit to play.

Nice flat deck today and those Kohli shots especially the cover drive he played to get off the mark.

RCB looks all fired up today. This is the way they actually need to play..... Free-flowing and aggressive clap

yes, I am surprised the opening partnership was on until 64

Why is AB playing like Stuart Binny today ?

Hope he plays well now as we are heading into last 6 overs and RCB needs something special

Better team selection from RCB today. Got Southee and Negi in and that makes the bowling attack a lot more balanced (two spinners and one good overseas seamer). And they've picked the right seamers to partner Southee (Saini and Siraj). I still find it hard to believe they are not picking Klassen especially when he is available as a sub-fielder.

For the good of the IPL, RCB need to win this and get going.

P.s: I wish Washington Sundar is brave enough to ask for a trade-out. Just like how Shikhar Dhawan did with SRH. It must feel bad for him that Negi is favored over him despite Sundar being a Powerplay bowler and Negi is not.

I so hate sometimes how Kohli reacts on a wicket. Even if he is playing for India. Kohli you just got Robbie's wicket, you have not won the IPL with that wicket. Heck you have not won 1 single match yet!

When Harry Gurney ?????

Just because he doesn't plays international cricket , shouldn't be kept out . Ferguson isn't that good of a product .

Why is Moeen in the team? He's never used.

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Mohammed Siraj had a terrible day today - beamers , dropped catches, misfields.

 

[Gaurav_7]

Wow, Russell is a monster. Period!

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Poor bowling from experienced international players.
