Indian Premier League - General Discussion

Mo's unironically a capable skipper in his own right.

That's what I mean. Seems to lose every time he captains for England but is a really strong and succesful captain in domestic cricket.

We bat till 10 and yes we can still turn it around in this match but as you said, we need to start making a move on. Also I feel Rayudu's time is up and I was really surprised he was picked up in the auction.

I've been a Rayudu fan over the previous cycle but performances like today aren't helping. We might be better off with the extra bowler in this scenario.

This is getting funny now..

Wait till you get Chahar bowling absolute grenades to Thala.

Every bowler got a wicket now...

Perfect time for Dhoni here. 13 overs left and a NRR to protect.

Same with me. He shouldn't have been picked this time round though.

All I want is for Thala to make a big score and get that orange cap temporarily to break the internet again.

Relying on dew and the luck of a toss to win a game is not the mark of a good side though. I believe we have the proper weapons in our arsenal and we're just not utilizing them correctly.

This is a season thats starting post a mega auction. Jonty Rhodes was being interviewed few mins back and he said pretty much the same thing, that teams have been refreshed and they are finding their feet around and there will be a lot more consistency around the 5th or 6th games. Teams like CSK should just hope that too much damage is not done to their table by then!

The majority of the games so far have been impacted by the dew factor (there's a turnaround happening in the past few days, though). CSK had a great batting game last time and a much better bowling game today. I am not yet calling them a 'bad side'. They need a few pieces to fall in place, while Chahar and Milne return. This batting order looks about right, except for the nonsense move of constantly sending Jadeja up the order. He's just not a No. 5 and I'll repeat it for eternity!

Was thinking if they can get this to 70 off 30 there's an outside chance with Pretorius, Bravo and Jordan. Getting close to that.

Not with Dhoni doing what he is doing..

 

[Gaurav_7]

I agree with Doull and Harsha, they need to go from both the ends!

 

[Gaurav_7]

He is 10 off 20, wonder if he was like 25 off 20, they would need 70 off 33 now, much better! Come on MS, get going!

I'm expecting Gavaskar to come on, say Dhoni is the great finisher and next ball he'll hit one straight to long on. That's what usually happens in the last few years.

Thala is waiting for the last over.

 

[Gaurav_7]

That's what it does to the other end batter who was going so well!!!

 

[Neo 7]

Thala is waiting for the last over.

Me waiting for Thala memes
