Indian Premier League | Day 4| Bangalore | Apr 12, 2016 | Match thread

[JaDed]

Ashish Reddy looks like local Marquee player

 

[Imran Hasan]

Sunrisers are in all sorts of trouble.

 

[JaDed]

ABd

 

[Dios]

This Ashish Reddy guy looks like a better bowler than Nehra any way.

 

[Imran Hasan]

Warner will be forced to give Fizz the next over. RCB batters will not hold back at this moment.

 

[Dios]

I guess Warner will have to bring back Mustafiz early to try and break this partnership. Everyone else is getting massacred.

 

[Dman]

AB is such a Champion, the lifeline of IPL.

 

[Sandeep]

SRH have a fragile batting lineup. Apart from Warner, they have Dhawan who is in awful form and so is Morgan. Henriques and other Indian batsmen can't win games on their own except contributing some. Too dependent on Warner, They should have gone for a batsman like Watson instead of Morgan.

Morgan was retained. RCB won the bidding to get Watson..

 

[JaDed]

Apparently Khalil was selected by DD but no one selected Avesh Khan?

 

[Imran Hasan]

I guess Warner will have to bring back Mustafiz early to try and break this partnership. Everyone else is getting massacred.

And he will not be spared too...

 

[Dios]

And he will not be spared too...

Most likely but he is the only one capable of breaking this partnership (unless the batsmen give away their wicket). Huge gulf in class between Mustafiz and the rest of these SRH bowlers.

 

[Dios]

Warner adamant on holding Mustafiz back for the death.

 

[Imran Hasan]

Clearly Warner is not looking for wickets and he just wants to ride out this massacre. Probably he will give Mustafizur 18 & 20th overs. Poor captaincy!

 

[Dios]

Centuries for both AB and Kohli?

 

[JaDed]

RCB gets more of crowd probably because stadium in the centre of the city,Mohali is unlucky in that way wonder how gujarat one is.

 

[JaDed]

Bhuvi arguing with Kohli? lol

 

[JaDed]

BK has finally increased his pace too late though. Kohli

 

[Lurker_Ind]

BK is still a pretty god LOI bowler. He is the cleverest of all in India. Can bowl yorkers, can swing the new ball, can bowl slower ones and also wide yorkers.

 

[Imran Hasan]

Sunrisers will have need their openers to score century partnership otherwise this match will be over soon.

 

[JaDed]

BK is still a pretty god LOI bowler. He is the cleverest of all in India. Can bowl yorkers, can swing the new ball, can bowl slower ones and also wide yorkers.

His pace is disappointing.If he gets consistent to 138ish or above he might be useful.

 

[rhony]

He is. If he gets his swing back with that pace, he will be lethal.

 

[carrom_ball]

He is. If he gets his swing back with that pace, he will be lethal.

Better than amir

 

[aniket1911]

Ohh my my !!
This RCB batting line-up is breath taking.

 

[JaDed]

Karn Sharma is finished no Sharma will ever make a good cricketer in India.

 

[rhony]

Better than amir

Joke of the day goes to you!!! For that he needs to get to 145+ and get Amir's golden wrist

 

[Imran Hasan]

ABD and Watson are in killing mood...

 

[160KPH]

1 Run of first 3 balls.
18 off next 3.

 

[carrom_ball]

Joke of the day goes to you!!! For that he needs to get to 145+ and get Amir's golden wrist

You don't need amir's golden wrist to give away 80 runs in 8 overs

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Watson, lol!

 

[JaDed]

Lol absolute useless to bring him now its already 183

 

[JaDed]

That was a wide wth?????

 

[carrom_ball]

4 overs 57 runs and kohli played this abomination over ashwin in test cricket, double

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Karn Sharma is finished no Sharma will ever make a good cricketer in India.

In his defense, this looks like a belter. Nothing for spinners or pacers.

200 is par here. If Warner and Shawan get going, they can chase 200 easily.

 

[dauntless]

What a bowler he is really so talented

 

[Ozymandiasza]

AB. Noooooooo

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Ohh my my !!
This RCB batting line-up is breath taking.

Wait for it dude.

Wait for it when it matters.

 

[aniket1911]

So finally piquant bowling of FIZZ took out Epicurean batting of AB.

 

[Dios]

Mustafiz gets de Villiers!

 

[Imran Hasan]

Double strikes!

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Could have avoided constantly bowling in the arc though.

 

[rhony]

Fizz will feast on some local talent now. It'll be tough for new batsmen to face him right away

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

What A BOSS....Mustafiz

 

[dauntless]

In t20s he is better than amir

 

[Dios]

de Villiers followed by Watson! Best T20 bowler in the world.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

This is his debut? If it is, well bloody done.

 

[rhony]

In t20s he is better than amir

With the old ball and in death. Yes

 

[badsha001]

de Villiers followed by Watson! Best T20 bowler in the world.

time to up amir vs mustafizur thread... no doubt best bowler in limited cricket, AMir is way overrated

 

[dauntless]

Difficult to face this bowler

 

[King Kong]

This Sharjeel Khan is being overhyped by people. Whenever I see him, he just looks like a slogger and his shorts look very ugly.

Which game are you watching?

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Morgan is due a decent total. Smart money is on him getting close

 

[aniket1911]

It would have been to see how KOHLI handled FIZZ in death overs.
Alas ! Not to be

 

[rhony]

Bhuvi spoiling Fizz's over

 

[aniket1911]

It was a six

 

[rhony]

It would have been to see how KOHLI handled FIZZ in death overs.
Alas ! Not to be

Poor captaincy by Warner. Fizz should have bowled in the 14- 16 overs to get wickets. Too late now

 

[street cricketer]

Lol Sarfaraz..

 

[Imran Hasan]

Horrible over from BK!

 

[rhony]

Wooww. This kid Sarfraz is amazing. I watched him play in the U-19 WC as well. He needs to get fitter and will definitely play for India one day

 

[rhony]

Did Bhuvi really bowl 149 kph there?

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Lol, this Sarfaraz Khan is quite a handy T20 player. Monster SR.

 

[dauntless]

What a batsman this guy is

 

[aniket1911]

Poor captaincy by Warner. Fizz should have bowled in the 14- 16 overs to get wickets. Too late now

True !
It's so grotesque considering, couple of wickets there would have killed the momentum.

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Sarfraz Khan you beauty

Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

 

[dauntless]

2 fifties for bowling team

 

[street cricketer]

Kid is just 18 years old.

 

[dauntless]

Great find for team india

 

[dauntless]

Genuine talent this guy is

 

[aniket1911]

31(8) what the actual jizz.
)

 

[rhony]

I'm reiterating this...This kid Sarfraz is just amazing. My opinion is not just based on this game. He literally carried the India team to U19 WC final. He gets tired after a 50 though. Kohli has taken Sarf under his wing and he will be a good LOI bat for India in the next 3 to 4 years

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Well done kid.

 

[aniket1911]

Sarfaraz looks like Brown fat steve smith.

 

[carrom_ball]

Sarfaraz gave a good phainty to the fizz

 

[rhony]

35(10)..Fantastic

 

[Imran Hasan]

Sarfaraz just totally took the game away from Sunrisers.

 

[rhony]

The way he manipulated Fizz on that last ball is just not natural for a 18 yr old.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Mustafizur is special

 

[Ozymandiasza]

If Sunrisers don't chase this, who would be MOTM? Ab? The kid?

 

[Messiah]

Sarfaraz overrated. These 65m sixes would be caught out in an international match

 

[rhony]

Sarfaraz just totally took the game away from Sunrisers.

It was already gone when RCB scored above 180. Sun Risers' batting is not that good. Very poor captaincy by Warner

 

[Bakasura]

time to up amir vs mustafizur thread... no doubt best bowler in limited cricket, AMir is way overrated

Starc.
