Eliminator: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs. Kolkata Knight Riders

 

[Sandeep]

Hoping for a one-sided drubbing of the overhyped knightriders.

 

[street cricketer]

Jai Andhra!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Knight riders are so poor on paper. How do they do it.

 

[JaDed]

Really hope KKR doesn't move forward don't want them get a 3rd title one more than CSK! Cmon SRH!

 

[JaDed]

Hopefully Manish Pandey doesn't come into form and Warner maintains his form.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Knight riders are so poor on paper. How do they do it.

Poor?

They have got the most allround batting lineups in IPL.

Gautam (accumulator - rare aggressor)
Uthappa (very scary bat to bowl to in IPL)
Manish Pandey
Shakib
Surya Kumar Yadav (very reliable hitter)
Yusuf Pathan (slogger)
Andre Russell (the best lower order T20 hitter in the world now)

Piyush Chawla (not a regular bat but can strike some sixes...won IPL finals smashing Johnson for six)
Narina, Yadav, Morkel - All can strike that one fluke six which can matter in the end

Their batting ain't top heavy or bottom heavy.

They keep coming at you.

KKR batting may not be at the best of forms this IPL but their batting is damn good.

That's why they chased down 200 in an IPL finals against Kings XI. Pukka team effort it was. In 2012, they chased down 192 against CSK in IPL finals (though the lineup wasn't exactly the same as above).

 

[anuk]

omg it's almost over?!? dear lord it feels like ages ago i was watching this while on holiday in sl. since then i have come back to aus, moved houses and started a new job!

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

SRH is too dependent on Warner, if he fails they will most probably lose this but either ways i guess GL will win against this qualifier.

 

[rhony]

Amidst all that hoopla, you still kept tabs on IPL. Fans like you are the reason why IPL is so successful.

 

[rhony]

I want Gambhir to lose against Kohli. So..Go KKR!!!

 

[RamLakhan]

SRH may go all the way to face RCB in the finals because of their bowling efforts and they can expect batting paradise in Bangalore this time around (unlike yesterday) where you know what RCB can do

 

[gattaca]

Jai Andhra!

Andhra has no team. you have to say Jai KCR and Jai telangana.

 

[troodon]

Andhra has no team. you have to say Jai KCR and Jai telangana.

Watever bro.

For me, Andhra and Telengana are all Telugu people.

Telengana Telugu just replaced some Sanskrit/Telugu words with Urdu ones.

 

[RamLakhan]

Dhawan doesn't have a good defense, Sehwag had an hidden defense though he took lots of risks himself (moreover he was way higher in aggression) But defense is also key (if people noticed)

 

[Abhilash93]

Kuldeep Yadav u beauty !

 

[Hasan123]

Sunrisers win please. Warner being out is a big blow

 

[aniket1911]

Supporting SRH today. Hope, they don't disappoint me.

 

[street cricketer]

edit make that Hyderabadi Biryani vs Maachi Bhaat - my madrasi colleague got very infuriated when i made Chicken 65 telugu

Isn't telugu madrasi?

 

[niishaa]

Isn't telugu madrasi?

No they are not .

 

[Smbhayi]

KKR to win another IPL! Nobody can stop it

 

[Prince_]

Sunrisers win please. Warner being out is a big blow

Warner has been performing brilliantly in this year's IPL and he's played a very good supporting role in SUNRISER'S recent SUCCESS in IPL.

But there's no doubt that so far the main role has been played by the one and only FIZZZZZ. BUT yes, it's true that WARNER'S absence will hurt SRH tonight.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Comical running.

SRH could have scored 180 today had it not been for all the wickets they threw away.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Now they might not even get 160.

 

[gattaca]

Watever bro.

For me, Andhra and Telengana are all Telugu people.

Telengana Telugu just replaced some Sanskrit/Telugu words with Urdu ones.

Damn thought I would get some entertainment. I thought street cricketer is from Andhra.

 

[gattaca]

Isn't telugu madrasi?

Whole south India is madrassi and they eat idly and sambhar.

 

[nish_mate]

Isn't telugu madrasi?

Naa mate Telugu is Chiranjeevi, Madrasi is Rajnikanth, Kannda who knows and Malyalee is Mohanlal

 

[street cricketer]

No they are not .

I know lol..

 

[street cricketer]

Looks like Hackda made some runs today..

 

[EliteCynical]

Looks like Hackda made some runs today..

Warner is making the scores that fizz is defending he has been the most important player in the team. Fizz has a big role to play tonight let's see what happens

 

[street cricketer]

Appreciate it mate.

Yup it's only a good news for India. But I never seem to be convinced about him when he's at the crease. Let's see how his career pans out.

 

[Justcrazy]

three down

 

[JaDed]

Gone Cutting gets one

I agree. I hope he comes well. Seems to be in the middle, neither here nor there. The upcoming season is crucial for him

Things not looking good for KKR here. 100 runs to get and just around ten overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Required rate moving towards 10 here , KKR in trouble , no Russell to rescue them

 

[JaDed]

One more batsman gone and KKR could be exposed badly.

 

[JaDed]

Pathan gone,KKR in big trouble !

 

[JaDed]

The accumulator wouldn't be able to handle pressure lets see how it goes.

 

[troodon]

Always nice to see KKR lose.

Its Telugu Sunrisers day.

 

[JaDed]

Pandeyji!

 

[Justcrazy]

86 FROM 51 BALLS,

KKR need a quick 25 run cameo from someone

 

[JaDed]

Nice shot by Pandey but he alone can't finish the match.

 

[street cricketer]

Let's see if Kohli jr. can take KKR home.

 

[JaDed]

Ben Cutting, sometimes the Aussies that play in IPL i hear their name for the first time.

 

[JaDed]

Good over by Cutting.

 

[Justcrazy]

Boundaries not coming , KKR need couple of big overs here

 

[Justcrazy]

63 from 6 overs , need a big over soon , to get back in the game.

Satish and Holder both can hit big hits.

 

[Justcrazy]

singles will not hurt the sunrisers.

 

[Justcrazy]

Catch dropped , can this be the turning point

 

[JaDed]

Barinder is such a "village" bowler atleast he tries

 

[Justcrazy]

KKR need to get a big over here to release some pressure.

 

[Messiah]

Mustafizur drops the match. This guy went from hero at the beginning if ipl to zero

 

[Justcrazy]

Big last ball coming uop , KKR need to make this count

 

[Justcrazy]

53 from 5 overs , Risers are ahead in the game here.

 

[street cricketer]

Lol the Dhawan doppelganger was too funny

 

[Justcrazy]

Its getting tough , boundaries have dried , good bowling here.

 

[JaDed]

Gone,Phew Surya was looking dangerous!

 

[Justcrazy]

48 from 126 balls . Sunrisers firm grip now over the game

 

[Statsman]

Sran looks quick.

 

[Justcrazy]

Kolkata Knight Riders require another 48 runs with 5 wickets and 25 balls remaining

Time out

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Top over from Mustafiz

 

[Hasan123]

Unreal yorker for fizz

 

[Justcrazy]

Kolkata Knight Riders require another 43 runs with 5 wickets and 19 balls remaining

 

[Justcrazy]

Sun risers have bowled really well here , kept it tight. They deserve to win.

 

[Firebreaker]

Still think Pandey should have played more than he has played for India now

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

No Andre Russell.....

KKR batting floundering....

Very hard.

Pandey and Holder key.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Game over.

Unless Holder can play the innings of his life.

RCB vs SRH

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Rajagopal Sathish you useless hack.

That was a 6 ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

33 from 12 balls.

 

[Justcrazy]

25 from last over , its all over for KKR

 

[Justcrazy]

satish gone

 

[Justcrazy]

Sunrisers Hyderabad won by 22 runs

 

[Justcrazy]

Gambhir has to be removed as a captain , his time as captain is over.

Pandey has to open , and Kolkata need to change there batting strategy next season.

 

[Messiah]

satish gone

Kkr is also gone

 

[Justcrazy]

Kkr is also gone

It was gone , when Surya was out , that was last hope.
