T20 Match Thread T20 Warm-up 3 | The Avengers vs Mumbai Indians at The Floating Marvel - Hayat plays a gem of an innings!

[Neptune]

Mi were always going to plunder runs at the death tbh. Few more early wickets could have helped us out but it isn't too much to chase. We still got this

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

Mohsin the Maniac

 

[mohsin7827]

A decent outing for us.
Let's do it.

 

[NILAYSHAH60]

Dude you suck at the banter. @Velocity you gotta coach this guy Nilay on the art of banter, he constantly makes a dick of himself and your team Avengers!
@NilayShah60 you need to sit down and learn a thing or two from the big boys like @CerealKiller. I like the effort but i feel so sorry when youre just making yourself to be a constant failure, youre better than this man!

I am not concerned about you. I don't even like you. There is a reason why you make that list of mine, it just few posts I am having a look at. You are just not good enough for having a chat. Anyways follow your match anyhow D-Grade players like you would've been on bench for good reasons. Have a nice day.

 

[NILAYSHAH60]

True Nilay Shah was really expensive though, leaked plenty runs, they may drop him for the next match!

Again I believe you might not even make your side being a D-Grade level player.

 

[NILAYSHAH60]

Good start for MI. Unfortunately not the greatest of spells I've bowled in this match. But it's just a start. Things would get better as the tournament goes on. Excellent performance from @mohsin7827 and @bats9cantbowl . They were extremely good with their economy rates.

Come on boys!!!!! Let us chase this target down!!!!!

 

[ddrap14]

Again I believe you might not even make your side being a D-Grade level player.

Whoever is in charge of the Wild Force, this would be very entertaining!

Excellent performance from @mohsin7827 and @bats9cantbowl . They were extremely good with their economy rates.

That'll need to change to bats9canbowl then

 

[Velocity]

Great bowling by Mohsin to get the key set batsmen in SKY and QDK. Could potentially turn out to be our "partnership breaker" that we can rely on in the middle overs. Economical spell from Waqar to keep the runs in check. A few too many runs in that final over and ideally 160-165 would've been better, but confident our batsmen can chase this down. A slight off day for the rest of the boys, but they'll be working hard during those net sessions everyday and their hard work will eventually win us games of cricket.

 

[Satan666]

I am not concerned about you. I don't even like you. There is a reason why you make that list of mine, it just few posts I am having a look at. You are just not good enough for having a chat. Anyways follow your match anyhow D-Grade players like you would've been on bench for good reasons. Have a nice day.

I love you bro. The list? Lmao you know youre still gonna hit ‘show ignore content’!

And so the game draws to a tame conclusion with Mumbai Indians claiming an impressive victory by 24 runs. A solid, if unspectacular performance there by Mumbai Indians and they will no doubt want to build on the foundation laid today. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. All of the disciplines benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said Mumbai Indians proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.

Great win for Mumbai. Great fight bhai @CerealKiller . Good luck for the upcoming matches

 

[Satan666]

Wow disgusting play by the Avengers, the only worldclass player they have is @CerealKiller and he showed that today by carrying this team on his back.

You really got a poor side when you cant win warm up games, Avengers.

Keep your chin up though Avengers and train harder and you all will surely improve to least give the Mavericks a good challenge.

 

[AsadRM]

Below-par batting! A few extra runs conceded at the death by our bowlers, and below-par batting excluding Talha Hayat really cost us.

A couple of lessons have been learned, and there shall be changes in the XI and batting order when we step into the tournament.

Anyhow, I expect the team to step up once the tournament begins.

If its one thing I dont think you all can perform any worse than this (if thats possible) so I expect you all to up your game when the tournament rolls out!

Tell me about your team?

Top order should’ve done a lot better. Hopefully the team leadership have learnt the right lessons from this match.
