IPL (2025) - Discussion Thread

[RamLakhan]

Why all these Jitesh Sharma Rajat Patidar coming ahead of Tim David and Romario Shepard?

It was a twilight time in the innings (middle overs whether to steady the innings or attack). Anyways no issues its a perfect result...

 

[Justcrazy]

26 runs of this over

Mahtre has destroyed Kumar here

 

[Justcrazy]

CSK need 163 runs in 94 balls.

Stunning batting so far.

 

[Justcrazy]

Out

Krunal makes breakthrough.

 

[BDfanforever]

Here comes 120k medium pacer Krunal Pandya.

 

[Justcrazy]

Four

Curran starts with boundary.

 

[Justcrazy]

Ngidi making his RCB debut.

 

[Ball Blazer]

Khaleel Ahmed concedes 65 runs in 3 overs - the most by a bowler in a T20 history bowling 3 or fewer overs.

 

[Devadwal]

17 year old Ayush Mhatre 40(20)*. Wow

 

[Croma]

Jadeja and Dhonu missed so many full tosses...

RCB defeat CSK in a thriller by 2 runs
===
Royal Challengers Bengaluru, on the back of half-centuries from Virat Kohli, Jacob Bethell and Romario Shepherd, ended up scoring 213/5 from 20 overs. Patidar’s RCB find themselves comfortably sitting in third place in the points table with 14 points, and a win vs CSK could make them the first team to qualify for the playoffs in IPL 2025. Lungi Ngidi picks Dewald Brevis CSK four down

Chennai, who became the first team to be eliminated from the playoffs race, will fight for their pride. The five-time champion has had a lacklustre campaign, winning just two games from 10 matches. A mid-season captain transfer to MS Dhoni after injured Ruturaj Gaikwad was ruled out, alongside a poor auction strategy, contributed to CSK’s woeful season.

Without Bumrah, IND bowling attack looks a lot weaker. With the way things are going with Pakistan and their Muslim population I can see Siraj and Shami getting axed in the future. So, you are left with: Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Natarajan, Mukesh Kumar, Yash Dayal, Deepak Chahar, Sandeep Sharma.

Prasidh has been spectacular though. Looked the best pacer this IPL including overseas guys.

Yes but it is alarming we didnt see any new fresh faces come through this year

Enough for your Islamist mentality .Shami and Siraj are always part of Indian team .

Indian has won the champion trophy without Bumrah.

 

[Devadwal]

Yet another Trilller in the greatest league in the World . Always happy whenever CSK lose.

Thala farewell runied by Yash Dayal twice now.

When your eyes are clouded by religion that is all you will see. Have your forgotten Indias last ICC Troohy performance? They win it without Bumrah. Shami is done on white ball team that is he won’t be in the squad. Siraj is blowing hot and cold and may or may not make it. Prasidh is the best pacer in the tournament which includes Cummins, Hazelhood, etc. India will do fine. Take your bigotry elsewhere

Jasprit Bumrah ICC ranked 40th in T20. That means he hardly plays T20 for India. India has won 28 of their last 31 T20 internationals.

Arshdeep 40 wickets at 14.45 avge 7.55 ER highest wicket taker for INdia
