IPL Indian Premier League - General Discussion

[zub2005]

another bad result for DC, they need to win soon or its going to be too late. there is a long way to go though

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Symonds has been the worst bowler this tournament so far ! Truly awful.

He is not a pure bowler so cant blame him, he is allrounder only in 50 and test game format

 

[SaiSrini]

I wont blame Symonds, I will blame Laxman for taking such a risk at that time. They badly needed a win to start their account in the tournament. Horrible captaincy from Laxman so far in this tournament.

I feel Gilly should captain the side if they got to progress forward.

 

[vaibhav mehta]

Laxman was insane.
He should have gave Symonds a 19th over where keep RP for last.
He doesn't have general sense even.
Though I'll blame a Roy a bit because He should have prevent Warne to hit 19 a over if he counts himself an all rounder.

 

[Dare]

wow just got home and saw the scorecard, Laxman gave Symonds the last over well he shouldn't captain anything any time soon. he needed to save Vaas or RP for the last over and maybe Afridi for 2nd last.

 

[vaibhav mehta]

Ya Dare but He is Laxman not a thinking Human.
It was easy match for Deccan when last two overs were left.
Though Warne was a real Captain,I am not taking anything from his account but No chance Laxman should have thrown bowl to Roy for last over.
On other hand Roy has surprised me because it was Warne who could be easily decived by a slower one or Yorker rather He was bowling ordinary.
Anyway was nice Match.

 

[irottev]

Soundslike a real beauty of a game. Another hundred, very nice Symonds. Shouldn't have been bowling the last over. I wouldn't give him another bowl all tournament to be honest.

 

[Leggie]

Off spinners which aren't turning, just flighted up delierys which have six written all over them...

 

[lancashire666]

it was excatly what this type of cricket is about, forget about the bowlers its all about the batsman! but saying that, so exciting, i really thought R P Singh had won the game with a wonderful 19 over, butnever bet against a certain fat aussie lol

 

[srikarr12]

OMFG i swear there something fishy about symonds

i mean he had 15 runs to play with and he bowls with those slow spinners to warne making it easy to pick. ANd after he got hit for the first six he bowls outside off stump for him slog it over the oundary!!!!

Im like WTF :: its not like hes never bowled in pressure situations before. He is a much better bowler then that he could have easily bowled yorkers or somewhat similar. i guess matchfixing is prob in place his 1.4 mill aussie dollars wasnt enough i guess

 

[Cricketman]

Stop blaming Laxman.

His captaincy has been good, his field placements generally where they ought to be.
Maybe he shouldn't have given the final over to Symonds, fine. But he expected alot more from his 'secret weapon' and most expensive player, and he just failed him.

 

[vaibhav mehta]

Ya Laxamn was accurate and awesome throughout the Game.
Who is blaming?..please.

 

[Cricketman]

This is just a simple case of blaming the parents for a child's crime - to put it metaphorically.

The parents are the one's under fire when it's actually the kids who mess up and are idiots.

 

[vaibhav mehta]

lol..What an Example!..lol.
I am not saying that its all Laxman's Fault honestly.
But Somehow I think He should have kept RP for 20th over instead of Roy.
I am not saying because DC has lost and my Vcash was on them But that was the normal expected things which Captain generally do.

 

[icyman]

Oh come on,Laxman's been really good as a captain right throughout.THe last over,well,even Symmo was shocked,he couldnt speak at the post match presentation. I think Symonds erred in his line and length.I was also expecting R Sharma to bowl a bit,maybe next match.
