I want point table be like ( From Bottom)

8. MI - 5 match ,4 lose and 1 win
9. CSK - 5 match ,4 lose and 1 Win
10.SRH - 5 match ,4 lose and 1 Win

Lovely

Would love to see KKR added to this list.

On a serious note, would love to see one of DC, PBKS or RCB win this year. Tired of seeing the same old teams on the podium year on year.

 

[Cricket Warrior]

For the first time in a decade, RCB have beaten Mumbai Indians at Wankhede stadium.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

MI team looks pretty good, I am sure they will bounce back.

 

[Devadwal]

I'm Only sad for pandya because he is betrayed by Sky, Rohit and Tilak. they didn't want to win the game for MI due to politics .

Even a child can understand this

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Sai Sudharsan, Jitesh Sharma, Nehal Wadhera,Rajat Patidar and Naman Dhir are on my watchlist.
These guys are technically sound, not blind sloggers like Ishan Kishan, Abhishek Sharma, or Pant.

Jitesh Sharma, in particular, is a pretty solid 360-degree batsman, he should definitely be picked in LOI format over Pant fraud.

Updated Points Table (07-04-2025)​

 

[Devadwal]

Why double header on Tuesday?

LSG vs KKR at 3:30 PM

PKBS vs CSK at 7:30 PM

 

[BouncerGuy]

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Lucknow Super Giants, 21st Match:

Kolkata Knight Riders have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[Devadwal]

Supporting LSG against KKR

Pant is having a nightmare tournament so far , hope he performed otherwise everyone know behaviour of LSG owner.

 

[Devadwal]

Andre Russell has become useless ,KKr should replace him now. He can perform once or twice during Theentire session .

 

[Devadwal]

Good first over by vaibhav arora

LSG 3/0 (1)

 

[Devadwal]

Biggie from Marsh.

Spencer Johnson conceded 12 in his 1st over.

 

[harshjoshi87]

I think Arshdeep is a good option but not sure of gambhir backing him.Eng may prepare roads as they are technically as bad as our batsmen .Bumrah, siraj , rana , akashdeep may be first choice. Shami may need another 3, 4 months i believe.if thakur plays at 8 and rohit won't play then we can have nitish at 5.he is good enough to survive at 5 and will have 5 pacers options.

Yes Nitish should bat at 5, Pant is no more the same batsman he was before the accident.

 

[Devadwal]

Both Marsh and pooran are playing together. I hope LSG score over 220.

 

[Devadwal]

LSG 135/1 in 12.4 oves .

Theh need to add another 100 runs I. Remaining 7.2 overs

 

[Devadwal]

Pooran is having a fabulous IPL session.

Currently 53(24)*

LSG 193/2 in (18 overs)

Can they add another 30 runs ?

 

[Devadwal]

What a brutal hitting by pooran. Just wow

76(30 ) *

24 runs from Russell over.

LSG 217/2 in 18 over

 

[jnaveen1980]

Nicholas pooran vs Rizwan? Is this a legit thread?

 

[Josh]

Vaibhav Arora looks like a bowler with some brains. Just watched only an over though.

 

[Devadwal]

LSG 238/3 in 20 overs.

But any score can be chased at the Eden garden.

 

[Devadwal]

Damn whata start by KKR

37/0 Just in 2.2 overs

 

[The Bald Eagle]

KKR's whole success depends on Narine

 

[Croma]

Reminds me of my book cricket days

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Any reason why KKR didn't retain Iyer? Lead them to an IPL win last year...was in good form with the bat too.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

But a wicket in the end of it
====
Five consecutive wides from Shardul Thakur

lol at him asking Pant to review the wide eventhough they had one review left

 

[Devadwal]

Stage is set for Russell special.

 

[Devadwal]

Venky gone. Both the set batsman are out now .

But KKR have batting depth .they are six down yet Rinku and Russell are batting together

 

[Devadwal]

1st six by Russell.

KKR needs 54 runs in last 4 overs. It's a gettable target

 

[Devadwal]

Russell gone on a full toss . Thakur strikes

 

[Devadwal]

KKR needs 39 in 14 balls .what a thriller

 

[Devadwal]

Six by Rinku .

32 in 11 balls

 

[Devadwal]

Wow Rinku wow. What a shot over extra cover. Pure timing

28 in 10 balls

 

[Devadwal]

Good comeback by avesh khan

28 in 8 balls. Only King can Chase this total ​

 

[Devadwal]

What a game .LSG just won by 4 runs.

IPL Hype is real

 

[Rajdeep]

I am mightily impressed with Khaleel Ahmed this season. He can be our Mitchel Starc.

Agree boys?

@Devadwal @Bhaag Viru Bhaag

 

[Devadwal]

Agree boys?

@Devadwal @Bhaag Viru Bhaag

We have enough bowlers for the limited over cricket but I want more quality bowler for test cricket.

Khaleel is no where near Starc but yea he has improve this year .

 

[Devadwal]

PKBS is batting and priyansh Arya smashed 17 runs in first over with 2 six.

 

[Devadwal]

Third six by Priyansh Arya

22(8)* .if he was Pakistan batsman @Rana would have already assume him best Pakistan opener in T20 cricket.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Lucknow Super Giants Highlights, IPL 2025: Mitchell Marsh, Nicholas Pooran Shine With Bat As LSG Beat KKR By 4 Runs In Last-Over Thriller​

KKR suffered a late batting collapse to lose their high-scoring Indian Premier League contest against LSG by a mere four runs at Eden Gardens. Chasing 239, KKR slipped from 149 for two in 12 overs to 234/7 in 20 overs. Skipper Ajinkya Rahane top-scored with 61 off 35 balls with eight fours and two sixes.

Earlier, Nicholas Pooran's massive knock helped Lucknow Super Giants post 238/3 in 20 overs against Kolkata Knight Riders on Tuesday. Asked to bat first, LSG opener Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram brutally thrashed all the KKR bowlers. Later, Nicholas Pooran also hammered KKR bowlers and propelled them to a huge total.

[Devadwal]

Maxwell is only perform once in 15 games. Tullebaaz ultra Pro Max player

 

[Devadwal]

Wickets are tumbling but priyansh is playing his own game.

79(34)* wow
PBKS 120/5 in 11.2 overs

 

[Champ_Pal]

Arya and Shashank are batting like a dream. Evey lofted shot is a 6.

This is proper T20 batting. Not the 120-140 S/R nonsense.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Wickets are tumbling but priyansh is playing his own game.

79(34)* wow
PBKS 120/5 in 11.2 overs

He deserves a century.

 

[Devadwal]

Unbelievable batting

[Bhaijaan]

Priyansh Arya

 

[Devadwal]

39 ball century for Young sensation of Indian cricket Mr Arya.

 

[Justcrazy]

Arya is looking good for 150 from here

 

[Bhaijaan]

Arya and Shashank are batting like a dream. Evey lofted shot is a 6.

This guys have done too much six hitting drill bro. They can hit it out of the park with an eye closed it seems

 

[Justcrazy]

200 will be beyond Chennai , unless there are the top three fires heavily.

 

[Justcrazy]

This guys have done too much six hitting drill bro. They can hit it out of the park with an eye closed it seems

But can they play when the pitch is little difficult ? Others they will remain only league players.

 

[Champ_Pal]

India has so many openers to choose from. In most countries, players like Shashank and Ahsutosh would have already played for the national team in the middle order or lower middle.

 

[Devadwal]

Aeya innings comes to end.

103 in just 42 balls.

@Rana this is how play aggressive cricket with proper hitting.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Arya gone. Noor gets him.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dhoni needs to open the batting here , and try and take advantage of Power play

 

[Champ_Pal]

Shashank should stay till the end and Kings will score 220 easily here.

 

[Devadwal]

PBKS just need to play full 20 overs. They just need another 50 runs from last 6 overs

158/6 in 14 overs

 

[Champ_Pal]

Dhoni needs to open the batting here , and try and take advantage of Power play

He prefers to stay not out.

 

[Justcrazy]

170 . 6

24 balls to go , Punjab would be targeting 215 from here.

 

[Devadwal]

Dhoni needs to open the batting here , and try and take advantage of Power play

Dhoni should take the retirement from IPL instead becoming burden on the team. But CSK hasn't build any Star player for The marketing so they needs him badly.

 

[Justcrazy]

210 is on here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dhoni should take the retirement from IPL instead becoming burden on the team. But CSK hasn't build any Star player for The marketing so they needs him badly.

This is his last year , he will not go away in the middle of season. Right now he needs to open.

 

[Justcrazy]

The pitch is good. If Chennai top 3 fire , they can make a match out of this.

 

[Devadwal]

Good finish by PKBS

220 is Target for CSK

 

[Justcrazy]

220 is the target.

 

[Champ_Pal]

If Rachin fails, CSK loses.

 

[Croma]

poor start from CSK.... doesn't look like they want to win

 

[Devadwal]

Tuktuk Raj gone. Thank God he has been dropped from Indian T20 team and odi team.

I don't want to see Tuktuk Raj anywhere near to the Indian team

 

[Croma]

Vijay Shankar,
Ravindra Jadeja,
MS Dhoni †,
Ravichandran Ashwin,
Noor Ahmad,
Mukesh Choudhary,
Khaleel Ahmed

With this line up, they are not chasing any score above 150...

Just like England team they are not playing for a win but for entertainment. Dhoni hitting a six even in losing cause is enough for CSK fan's. For more information contact MR.JosD90

 

[Devadwal]

PKBS is dropping the catch after catch.

 

[Bhaijaan]

If there was ever any debate, after this match there should not be, Chandigarh has the most beautiful women in the country. Period.

 

[Justcrazy]

CSK need 72 runs in 29 balls.

The game is over

 

[Usman Chadda]

Lol in a world where Devon Conway is out of his depth in franchise T20 cricket, our batsmen really have no business even playing the format.

The skill level on display is unreal, specially for a Pakistani fan.

 

[Justcrazy]

A couple of big overs , 20 plus ones can spice things up a bit.
