IPL (2025) - Discussion Thread

[OldWarHorse]

This is club level cricket.

This is bigger than international cricket, get your facts right

 

[Champ_Pal]

This is club level cricket.

Those feelings always arise when RCB is bowling.

 

[RyanRyan10]

Lurn captaincy from Rajat Patidar

 

[RyanRyan10]

This is club level cricket.

Get lost else I will expose all of your accounts

 

[Smbhayi]

Narine was lucky umpire already called wide otherwise that'd be a hit-wicket..

 

[RyanRyan10]

Starc is also not playing. This is first match so we are not sure about fitness of the players .

Starc is in DC

 

[Smbhayi]

Wow 25 ball fifty by Rahane with a six..

 

[Champ_Pal]

You know your bowling is trash when malnourished Rahane is smacking your bowlers like a He-Man

 

[Bhaijaan]

Rahane 51* (25)

Captain’s knock

What a guy Rahane
So much respect for him

 

[Bhaijaan]

Rahane bhai not being superstar in world cricket is one of the greatest regret of mine as a cricket fan.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Get lost else I will expose all of your accounts

Go for it Chico

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rahane bhai not being superstar in world cricket is one of the greatest regret of mine as a cricket fan.

He could play in a lot of T20 teams in the world. Pakistan definitely.

 

[Vikram1989]

Suyash is giving me the vibes of shadab.no line and length. No one knows where he will pitch it up.

 

[Bhaijaan]

KKR on course for a 200sh total

 

[Bhaijaan]

Suyash is giving me the vibes of shadab.no line and length. No one knows where he will pitch it up.

He is reminding me of Inzi bhai bowling

 

[Champ_Pal]

Suyash is giving me the vibes of shadab.no line and length. No one knows where he will pitch it up.

If you look at his bowling action, he does not look at the batsmen when delivering the ball. His eyes are towards heaven. Perhaps praying hard to Bajrangbali to help him cope with the pasting he is about to receive.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Suyash bhai bit nervous in this match. Getting smashed around.

Chico gonna make a come back

 

[cricfan432]

Even rahane has learned power hitting at this age, while few from pak refuse to do it.

 

[RamLakhan]

With every year RCB's bowling get weaker and weaker... (Some unknown useless bowlers getting added this season - worse than last time!)

 

[Vikram1989]

He is reminding me of Inzi bhai bowling

I don't recollect inzi bhai bowling action. he chucks and commentators called him out in sharjah.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Sunil Narine doing Sunil Narine things.

Bit late but yeah that’s what he does

 

[Champ_Pal]

A big Salam to Rasikh for temporarily halting the carnage

 

[Bhaijaan]

Sunny bhai always in the commentary box. This man never got bored of cricket. Legend

 

[Champ_Pal]

Venkatesh Iyer is unlucky to not be in the Indian team. Too much competition for places. He sure is a talent.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Sunny bhai always in the commentary box. This man never got bored of cricket. Legend

WHat a life to have. Watching the game you love, doing commentary. Dancing when India wins. Not many have that kind of life. Doing what you love.

 

[Vikram1989]

Rcb fans should cherish this match for a reason. Wicket in first over and 2 wickets in consecutive overs.

 

[Bhaijaan]

WHat a life to have. Watching the game you love, doing commentary. Dancing when India wins. Not many have that kind of life. Doing what you love.

He seems to have a forever kinda contract with Star. Totally deserves it. These guys missed out making big money in their era.

But really, this guy is in the international cricket scene NON STOP since 1971. That’s a crazy amount of time spent on international cricket.

He is super fit even at 70+ to travel with the team and talk about cricket for hours on.

 

[Bhaijaan]

I think Suyash has an issue with gripping the ball. Keeps it in one hand only during his run up. If he can change that a bit and get a good grip on the ball he will start landing it in the right areas.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pandya bowls a bouncer to Iyer.

Iyer straight away seems to have asked for a helmet

Gets the helmet

Gets bowled the very next ball

Mind games

You ain’t no Viv bro

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is super fit even at 70+ to travel with the team and talk about cricket for hours on.

He has pretty good sense of humor too.

 

[Vikram1989]

Rinku vs dayal once again in death overs will be very interesting

 

[Justcrazy]

Buying Iyer at that high price was the biggest blunder done by KKR , this may be the reason they will fail to win this time

 

[jnaveen1980]

20 year old Rahguvanshi has to make it count. Future star. High hoes. World cup winning opener

 

[Justcrazy]

KKR should have gone for Indian WK Ishan Kishan , that would have solved opening slot and thus would have opened a slot for foreign player . Imagine playing Powell or Moin Ali.

KKR should have gone hard for Ishan Kishan and shami , that would have made KKR 90 % winner

 

[Bhaijaan]

Zindapathar comes on

 

[Justcrazy]

Even 220 is not safe here in Eden garden. KKR need some really big overs here

 

[jnaveen1980]

Even 220 is not safe here in Eden garden. KKR need some really big overs here

Russell needs 2 good overs. They will be there. Ramandeep singh is a six hitter too.

 

[Justcrazy]

36 balls remaining here , KKR need to get 80 runs minimum here

 

[Devadwal]

2 OVERS. 2 WICKETS .

This spell can be Turning point of The match!

Absolute clutch performance

 

[Justcrazy]

Russell needs 2 good overs. They will be there. Ramandeep singh is a six hitter too.

Russell is very inconsistent , Should have gone with Roman Powell.

 

[RyanRyan10]

Go for it Chico

moodswing ho gaya Krunal Pandya ki bouncer dekh ke

 

[Bhaijaan]

Surely the RCB cannot win the IPL with this bowling attack

 

[Bhaijaan]

Krunal has bowled a great spell here for RCB. The Pandya’s are absolute chads

 

[Justcrazy]

KKR have lost their way here , Reckless batting without any plan.

 

[Justcrazy]

KKR wasted so much money on overrated tulla like Iyer all because of this the coach pandit. There were so many better players they could have chosen.

 

[Justcrazy]

220 was par score here , and KKR likely to be well short

 

[Bhaijaan]

Gimme some of that Dre Russ

 

[Bhaijaan]

Suyash bowls Dre

Wow ball of the match.

Well done Chico

 

[Justcrazy]

Russell needs 2 good overs. They will be there. Ramandeep singh is a six hitter too.

This is what I said , Russell fails more than he scores , he is past prime , and KKR made blunders by keeping such players

 

[RamLakhan]

Suddenly the pitch tends to have become bowling-friendly! Tough times for RCB batters...

 

[Justcrazy]

Suyash bowls Dre

Wow ball of the match.

Well done Chico

Russell is not worth playing , he is very poor against spin. KKR is deep trouble now , they likely to finish well below 200 here

 

[Justcrazy]

From 107 . 1 to 150 . 6

KKR batting like tulla here , no one making a solid contribution.

 

[Justcrazy]

RCB bring in their Impact Sub - Padikkal replaces Suyash

 

[jnaveen1980]

This Suyas needs some fine tuning. He is next Chakri.

 

[Devadwal]

This Suyas needs some fine tuning. He is next Chakri.

He is bowls too Many loose delivery

 

[Bhaijaan]

Hazzlewood is class

 

[Devadwal]

Russell is washup player. KKR need to play another player

 

[jnaveen1980]

Raghuvanshi superbly deposited Josh for six.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Watch out world. Raghuvanshi is our next Jaiswal.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Raghuvanshi

 

[Devadwal]

Spending 23.75 crores on Venkatesh Iyer looking like a joke every passing day . He is 1/3 worth of it at best.

Raghuvanshi is better prospect then Venky Iyer

Buying Iyer at that high price was the biggest blunder done by KKR , this may be the reason they will fail to win this time

 

[jnaveen1980]

Raghu is a test match material. He needs some numbers in domestic

 

[OldWarHorse]

Raghuvanshi looks a serious talent. Would probably be playing international cricket if he were born elsewhere

 

[Devadwal]

Raghu is a test match material. He needs some numbers in domestic

He is from under -19 product

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is from under -19 product

yea.. He was 16 years old when he played under-19 final

 

[Devadwal]

Good comeback by RCB but KKR have good bowlers .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Josh is showing what a great T20 bowler he is.

 

[Vikram1989]

Spending 23.75 crores on Venkatesh Iyer looking like a joke every passing day . He is 1/3 worth of it at best.

Raghuvanshi is better prospect then Venky Iyer

No starc to save the blunders

 

[Bhaijaan]

Great come back by RCB.

After 10 overs it looked like we will see a 220sh kinda total easily.

Now they’re 169/7 in 19.3 overs

 

[Devadwal]

Edge and four .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Robotic execution by Josh.

 

[Devadwal]

KKR 174/8 (20)

Excellent comeback by RCB

#Esalacupnamde

 

[jnaveen1980]

Dew will negate any turn that is on offer

 

[jnaveen1980]

Salt & Kohli open for the first time.

 

[Justcrazy]

KKR should be disappointed here , easy win s for RCB coming

 

[Kianig89]

Zindapathar comes on

You mean Livingstone

 

[Kianig89]

The AI of bowling , Josh Hazlewood

 

[Devadwal]

KKR should be disappointed here , easy win s for RCB coming

Nope. This is going to be nail biting finish

 

[Devadwal]

First ball and its a boundary for King
