CSK vs RCB and KKR vs Sunrisers | 4th May, 2015 | IPL 8 | Chennai and Kolkata

[Sakss]

Ipl 8

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

chennai lost the plot, gonna lose 3 in a row

 

[desi_launda]

should be last ipl season for dhobi and jadeja

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

wat r they doing playiin too slow

 

[mithun_minhas]

Starc has been amazing . r RCB. Since his arrival, they are winning more consistently.

MSD is done. Totally washedup. Jaddu is only good for fielding.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

this is embarrassing for chennai.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

rcb going to take this..

 

[Swanny]

Jadeja still getting selected. Based on what I wonder ?

 

[RamLakhan]

Bizarre Display by CSK so far! But still RCB should be careful, because CSK can somehow lift their game any time (even in bowling)

 

[RamLakhan]

Some spinners left for RCB to bowl which can help Dhoni! RCB should have gone for an overseas bowler in place of Maddinson (not Sammy). Is Milne available?

 

[RamLakhan]

As I typed the above message, Dhoni takes charge of the spinner! Tactical mistake by RCB...
And Dhoni is smart to make use of limited Battling Skills (throughout his entire career I guess!). At least this smartness was missing in some of the Indian Batsmen through out the history. Steve Waugh was another guy who used to be like this!

 

[RamLakhan]

Spinners are ineffective in this IPL (barring few). Teams should go with at least 3 pacers...

 

[RamLakhan]

Looks 160 ish total. (Unless Starc bowls really really well)
Any other team it is gettable, but against CSK it is always a touch difficult...

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

they not gonna make 150.. rcb doing well

 

[RamLakhan]

Dhoni isn't finishing it of (in the past he was at least finishing off even between his limited skills). I think he is gone for now!

 

[Sakss]

144-6 in 19 overs

 

[Sakss]

Wiese 2-29, good figures

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

wat happened to chennai today?

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

game over

 

[Sakss]

3-24,, Starc showing his class

 

[Swanny]

Ashwin will be missed here.

 

[RamLakhan]

You cannot relax against CSK! Once again its showing! That's the reason why they bat 1st mostly when they win toss! They are somehow confident as a "unit" defending competitive totals (no other team has that confidence)

Suddenly the target is looking like mount everest!

 

[RamLakhan]

Kohli should prove that he can carry an innings along! This is his best opportunity to do it! The target is well within his reach if he bats confidently (otherwise his career will fall somewhere between Sehwag and Gambhir, instead of going a legend's way!)

 

[fringe playa]

Kohli making Misbah proud

 

[Swanny]

Kohli should prove that he can carry an innings along! This is his best opportunity to do it! The target is well within his reach if he bats confidently (otherwise his career will fall somewhere between Sehwag and Gambhir, instead of going a legend's way!)

Lol.


Sarfraz come on lad.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Kohli, MSD, Jaddu have all been duds in Limited overs format for a while now.

Kohli's batting seems to suffered the most ever since he decided to go Size Zero. He looks lost most of the times.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Come on Sarfraz.

I only follow IPL to see how youngsters are doing.

 

[Swanny]

Nehra is too good these days. Clutch performer.

 

[RamLakhan]

Lol.


Sarfraz come on lad.

So what, if he repeats this for some more time, then I am sure he will reach to a point that I mentioned (average cricketer like may be Vinod Kambli with a sharp purple match! The high-tense media of today has actually hyped him)

 

[RamLakhan]

As I told CSK proving their power! RCB has been CSK's bunny for sometime

[mithun_minhas]

How the heck is Hogg not playing for Aus? The man is probably one of the best spinners in the world out there..

 

[mithun_minhas]

SRH looks like pathetic players of spin.

None look comfortably against spin there..

 

[Swanny]

How the heck is Hogg not playing for Aus? The man is probably one of the best spinners in the world out there..

Same reason as Nehra not playing for us.
