Seam Bowlers rule this round of Australian Edition and batting 2nd teams found easy to chase... Another excellent bowling figure from Mitchell Johnson let him to climb top position in WML Bowlers Ranking... After Round 2, except Sydney Sunshine all 4 teams taste the victory... It is tough to predict the Top 3 for now...

Leaving George Bailey out of the squad and naming Aaron Finch as a new captain is big surprise for Home fans... But in other side calling Tim Ludeman to the national side, not a surprise pick, if we look at his current form in T20... About Team India, we see 3 major changes... Irfan Pathan called up to T20i team head of Ravindra Jadeja... Murali Vijay replace Shikhar Dhawan and Currently in excellent form, Robin Uthappa replace Dinesh Karthik, who served as a reserved wicketkeeper for Team India for Long Time...

Not surprising. I hardly ever win T20 matches as a manager.


If you're able to control the bowling options in CH, I'd like Glenn Maxwell to open the bowling for us please. He's done pretty well with that role in real life.

19.2	Pat Cummins to Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 0, 143.35kph, P Cummins is working up a good head of steam here. That continues on straight. B Kumar late cuts but can't time it properly. The non-striker calls for a non-existent run. B Kumar rightly sends him back
19.3	Pat Cummins to Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 1, 140.84kph, B Kumar plays it gently through the off side. Easy single to be had there
19.4	Pat Cummins to Ravichandran Ashwin, 4, 142.69kph, P Cummins is working up a good head of steam here. Through backward square leg for four. Imperious
19.5	Pat Cummins to Ravichandran Ashwin, 6, 144.86kph, That sped away like a tracer bullet. Fantastic square drive. An audacious shot from R Ashwin. Six runs
19.6	Pat Cummins to Ravichandran Ashwin, 1, 144.67kph, Pitches wide of leg and it swings in. R Ashwin leg glances but can't time it properly. They take a single

This was the first time Indian batsmen went out there under pressure from the word go and they crumbled to it. Middle order's failure led to the loss.

Thank you for letting me be a part of this very well managed league, Raghs.

A whitewash in any format sucks. Good thing we avoided that.
