I think she said "thanks for your time virat" in british accent. It may have sounded like 'bro' but I think she said "Virat".

 

[dauntless]

Match is done for pune

 

[JaDed]

I think she said "thanks for your time virat" in british accent. It may have sounded like 'bro' but I think she said "Virat".

[battler]

[sensible-indian-fan]

Pune sucks.

What is this performance.

)

 

[DHONI_FAN]

Pune n India shd get rid of this garbage player called Rahane.. useless 20-20 n odi player..

 

[DHONI_FAN]

Idiot Rahane .. hitting half trackers str8 to the fielder..

 

[JaDed]

Who is Shamsi ,surely [MENTION=137677]Thivagar[/MENTION] must know!

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Rahane and over the hill Dhoni are playing beautifully.

Both need to go.

 

[JaDed]

Lol Binny.

 

[JaDed]

Kohli misfielding!

 

[JaDed]

I like Tabraiz but no way he is a proper replacement for Badree.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Words can't explain how bad these 2 knocks have been uptill now.

Worst knocks.

Rahane seems to happy to take a single and when an obvious leg side ball comes, he takes a boundary.

Dhoni is doing literally nothing.

185 should have been chased here but we are too much lulloos.

Req Run rate 13.

 

[Lords]

Who is this Shamsi guy? Never heard of him. Looks like punjabi or UP wala

 

[rollingstoned]

Lol dhoni got 4 runs gifted to him that weren't even off his bat. He's still striking at barely 100.

 

[JaDed]

Who is this Shamsi guy? Never heard of him. Looks like punjabi or UP wala

From South Africa bro.

 

[JaDed]

burn to the injuries.

 

[HitWicket]

Poor umpiring and Shamsi paying the price.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

The moment when you realize Pune is nothing like CSK.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

71 off 30 even after this bad batting.

Just goes to show how easy this target ACTUALLY was.

 

[JaDed]

Why are Pune fans holding their head when the Pune batsman survived lol joke of a loyalty from their fans.

 

[JaDed]

what a torture from Dhoni

 

[JaDed]

Surely Aaron can come instead of H Patel not sure why he is persisting with him.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Surely Aaron can come instead of H Patel not sure why he is persisting with him.

Cos Aaron effortlessly gets thrashed every 2nd game.

Highly unreliable.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

What is happening.....

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Perera is that you

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

) ) )

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

this wicket keepers suspect, he didnt go for the lbw and also this catch...

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Damnn

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

This was such an easy target.

Worst performance but still perera and Bhatia got us back.

Too bad they couldn't finish but kudos to them for fighting.

 

[CricketAnalyst]

Insane match. Ridiculously poor play from Dhoni.

It's so sad Perera and Bhatia couldn't finish it after bringing it to a very manageable 25 off 12. If Perera had stayed it would have been easy.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Seriously what's wrong with Dhoni? The guy literally struggles to find the boundary after countless amount of deliveries.

 

[Sandeep]

Kohli: That was closer than we thought it would be at one stage, but good to cross the line. We were playing good cricket, it just needed composure at the right moments. But I'd like to win the toss next time! Watson showed his experience, and Kane to finish off things was quite good. It was good to see the guys not panic. We spoke about 175-180, but I wasn't happy with myself, the way I batted after 30-35 balls, but I figured out it was important to stay in with AB. He kept me going and told me to play the anchor role, so that he could play his shots. The surface didn't have that much bounce to hit shots at will. AB is the best batsmen in our generation. It's a pleasure to bat alongside him. The way he communicates, he's a selfless person. He doesn't care about his own plans, but help people around him. He's a better human being than a batsman. Shamsi came in a bowled really well. One guy got out of the plane and knocked us out of the T20 World Cup. So, I told him you get off the plane and knock them out. He bowled really well. Rajkot should help us better.

Crazy quotes from Kohli. He's being too hard on himself )

 

[Lords]

From South Africa bro.

Oh really, may be desi African then.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Dhoni is past his prime, as a captain as well.

 

[Sandeep]

His cousin. It's a family name.

No no no! M Ashwin hails from the same college as R Ashwin, the latter's junior.. there ends the connection..

 

[JattMaula]

Dear Pune,

Why must you always suck?

With love

Crazy quotes from Kohli. He's being too hard on himself )

He wasn't.

Today he played a match losing knock.

Even after our worst batting display we came close.

185 was an easy chase.

Pune is shockingly dreadful.

Better human being than batsman . Looks like someone is following in the footsteps of [MENTION=129948]Bilal7[/MENTION]

Kohli is winning me over with his new-found maturity and class. If only his fans stop being absolute tools, he'll become a very popular batsman all over the world.

Bro kohli fans are not tools, most kohli fans expect AB is a better batsman than kohli.
But the only thing is that in international cricket epsecially t20's kohli has totally out-performed AB because of his clutch genes.

I agree with both statements, but if you go through some of the other threads, you'll see that Kohli fans overhype Kohli to ridiculous levels and obnoxiously attack those that disagree with them.

One of the reasons I became a fan of IPL was the support it provides to domestic cricketers.

I met an ex Ranji player from Railways at a gas station in 2012. He was trying to make ends meet by working 12 hours a shift on a minimum wage in Chicago. He came on a visiting visa and overstayed. He said, he didn't make any money as a first class cricketer during his 3 year stint. He was genuinely happy for all the new age domestic cricketers getting paid a decent amount in IPL. The wages in domestic cricket have gone up and there is also a pension for ex cricketers because of the revenue generated in IPL. That alone is a good reason to be a fan of IPL.
