I m very positive. Sohaib will be taken to cleaners by Mumbai.

Tendulkar has been out of match practice as well and the rest of the mumbai batting lineup is quite frail so I do not think Shoaib will be being taken to the cleaners but to each his own.

It must suck for Ishant and Dinda to bowl after Shoaib because even though they aren't slow by any means they look like military mediums after him :D
 
and now its back to boring IPL again.

Someone wake me up when Shoaib comes back for his 4th over...sprinkling a few drops of water on my face should do it, though I'd prefer a light shaking of my shoulder.

He was sweating and panting like he'd bowled 20 overs on the first day of a test match!

IPL and T20 cricket is perfect for Shoaib. With his big shoulders, chest, thunder thighs and big tummy he looks like a WWE wrestler.

IPL is WWE Cricket so a match made in heaven :D
 
great shot by dilshan and the silence of the crowd says it all.

by the way does anyone know the name of the song in the background?

So which wrestler you liked most in your times? For me it was Bret Hart/ Shaun Michaels...
 
Looked like Akhtar has broken down after 3 overs look at the guy and made a face that looks like his injured then done a little action of stepping on his ankle and looking unhappy to step on it

BAD News

Big tummy? i think thats not there anymore. But he did look tired after his third over, ideally he should bowl 2 over spells.

Bret Hart was the best of all time, forget Shawn Michaels, that lying piece of crap!

It has to be Andre the Giant, for his performance in The Princess Bride if nothing else.
 
Strange they left out Umar Gul, whos probably the 2nd best bowler on Kolkota but its probably the idiotic 4 international player rule again.

I assume you've never seen Hulk Hogan in Mr. Nanny.
 
Need 75 from 65 with 5 wickets in hand. Looks liks shoaib will have to pick up 2 more in his final over.

Shawn Michaels was definitely a better wrestler than Hart even though I hate him for working with Vince to screw over Bret's final match in Montreal...

anyways 60-5 DD

74 from 64 (6.9 rpo req)

To each his own. If you prefer those high flying moves, then you'd like Shawn Michaels better.

But if you prefer, more physical, and more real looking style, then Bret was the best. People don't appreciate what a good wrestler Hart was. Just because he didn't do moonsaults or flying elbow drops, doesn't mean Michaels was better.

Diesel is Kevin Nash right? If so, yeah he was awesome as well.

The Rock will remain my favourite of all time just because of his charisman

DD need 68 from 58

Dilshan looking good on 25

Bret Hart doesn't whine, he used to, but he's over it now. Its the WWE that keeps bringing up the screwjob.

Bret Hart is a survivor, I have a ton of respect for him and everything he's overcome.
 
Thats nice, wrestling talk on an IPL thread. Btw Shaun michaels had nothing on bret hart.

I think most people here are just waiting for Shoaib's last over anyways.

Bret was definitely a good technical wrestler but Michaels had the style along with the substance and could execute both the high flying moves while still being a more than able ground wrestler.

Bret Hart is still one of my fav's though so it doesn't matter.

Hussey makes a misfield though Dada is bowling a very good over anyways

67-5 after 11. DD under a lot of pressure

Shawn Michaels was an average ground wrestler. All he had on Hart was his charisma.

And run-out! 6 down!
 
67 needed from 53 balls... batting team in trouble

there is a "there" in the middle of those quotes but yes he was ONE of the best :P. Really sad that Goldberg ended his career with that infamous kick.

Bret Hart was a great technical no nonsense type of wrestler but HBK was the complete package. The wrestling, the high flying moves, the charisma, the audacity. I still remember the DX days. Him & HHH were simply awesome.

Whats the score by the way ? :)
