IPL (2025) - Discussion Thread

OUT

Marsh gone , useless player, even on flat surfaces has kept on faltering.

 

[Justcrazy]

Nothing extraordinary ,more importantly can he bowl 20+ over in a day?

Yes , he can bowl , question is how fit he will be .

India will have Reddy to bowl 10 overs and Jadeja or Washington to bowl some overs.

Bumrah , Siraj will play , so one position is left , Arsh has to fight for that one spot with others.

 

[Devadwal]

Pooran is only Hope for LSG . Arshdeep should bowl another over here.

 

[Devadwal]

Arshdeep is almost won the game for Punjab. 2 wickets in this over so far

Most of the players have fatigue before England series due to IPL . So fitness is going to be key.

Bumrah will need some support from other bowler's and unfortunately i can't see many quality options.

Siraj , Prasidh Krishna , mukesh kumar etc are other options.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pant needs to play a defining innings here

 

[Devadwal]

I hope pant back to the form before England series.

Prasidh is a good bowler , if given regular opportunities he can develop into a solid bowler.

And Arshdeep strike again. Pooran gone .

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Arshdeep is a quality bowler .india should gamble with him and take him for England test series .

@Nikhil_cric what is your opinion about Arshdeep The test bowler?

Don't think he is a Test bowler , brother.

Should take

Bumrah
Akashdeep
Siraj
Prasidh
Rana

and hope for the best

 

[Croma]

Is Pant constantly bullying Badoni? Keeps complaining every delivery

Pant donates his wicket yet again. Cant play normal cricketing shots... only circus level batter

He can

Bumrah
Rana
Arshdeep
Prasidh keishna
Yudhvir singh
Thakur
Siraj

This should be our bowling list

Best bowling attack in the world

Add in Kuldeep Sen potentially

Shami if fit

RCB, Punjab & MI are qualified (I think MI with the kind of team they have they are certain to make the playoffs at least at No.4 position even if they slip in 1 or 2 games, they have a healthy NRR and they can retain/better that in their last game if situation demands. While RCB & Punjab are well placed with 3 games in hand. But Punjab would have preferred to have not lost that 1 point to rain! So they should be on their toes in the remaining games, they have an easier game against RR. RCB is in the most comfortable position in the playoff race and they have easier games also coming up...)

DC have two virtual QFs (one against Punjab & again against GT. SRH could be an easier game, but should make sure they don't slip in that game AND last game against MI is going to be tough...) DC's position is good, but they have a tendancy to lose the momentum (they have that kind of a team), so won't be surprised if they lose all their remaining games & get knocked out from playoffs...

GT have two easier games (LSG & CSK) if they win these two games then they are qualified. So they are one level better placed compared to DC.

KKR & LSG have outside chance to qualify but its going to be extremely tough...

IPL Playoff Race is getting interesting, but this time more than NRR I think it is going to be about maximum wins, teams should aim to win the games... (That's what RCB did)
