IPL | Mumbai Indians Vs Kolkata Knight Riders | Mumbai | 16/05/2008

[siddharth]

Have you ever seen Jayasuriya bat when he is at his best? Obviously you haven't.. this guy has played 400 plus one dayers. Even if the total is 150 or 160 he would have destroyed the attack in the same way like other day.

Thats for sure ,the grand daddy of all pinch hitters .

 

[pakistani]

mmbai are now 4th in the table

they are tied with dekhi and KKR with 10 points

 

[gibster82]

exactly this just gave deccan a chance to fight for the 4th spot mathematically

 

[bilals85]

someone does get a half century

 

[OZGOD]

Man Shoaib got owned by Jaya!

2.6 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, SIX, incredible incredible shot! Shoaib goes back over the wicket and bowls a short of a length delivery on leg and middle, Jayasuriya moves across his stumps and plays a short arm pull that sends the ball soaring over deep midwicket
2.5 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, FOUR, too full and too wide outside off stump, Jayasuriya leans into it and powers the ball over extra cover with a full and free swing of his bat, the ball bounces once before going over the boundary
Shoaib goes round the wicket.
2.4 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, 2 runs, Shoaib pitches short and Jayasuriya pulls the ball along the ground through midwicket
2.3 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, SIX, shot! Stunning stuff! Jayasuriya moves a fraction across his stumps and picks Shoaib off his pads and deposits him over the long leg boundary, that was hit hard and flat with a lot of bottom hand and it just cleared the boundary
2.2 Shoaib Akhtar to Jayasuriya, FOUR, Shoaib gives Jayasuriya a tiny bit of room outside off and that's all he needs to uses his forearms and drives the ball hard through cover off the back foot, he's not timed it well but the ball still goes over the boundary
2.1 Shoaib Akhtar to Uthappa, 1 run, Shoaib fires the ball in from wide of the crease, Uthappa jumps back and across and fends the ball towards the leg side, he calls Jayasuriya through for the quick single

 

[pakistani]

i thought Jaya got a 50 stupid uthapa got 9 runs

 

[MCMLXXXII]

Someone said it would be impossible for anyone to score a 50? Sanath shows you how.

 

[Mohsin]

Jaya's living in the year 1996!!

 

[gibster82]

its going a be battle for the 4th semi spot - this actually makes the IPL interesting

 

[tauseefm]

Sanath didn't get the 50. it was legby.

 

[pakistani]

exactly this just gave deccan a chance to fight for the 4th spot mathematically

theres no way Deecan is making the semis

 

[Dhonifan]

I think we can safely say Mumbai were superb and played to a plan. Even a target of 150 wouldnt have fazed them with Jaya batting like this, so its no use blaming the target.

 

[Showman]

The last 4 were legbyes, no 50 for Sanath.

 

[jusarrived]

your a fool demoralising attack with 67 to get batting second in a 20/20 game - great job jaya...lol

he is batting confidently but this is not a reflection on kkr's bowling at all

you cant judge a batsmen while chasing a low total , its his contribution in chasing huge totals that matters .....the exact opposite true for bowlers..great bowlers help teams defend small totals...like shoaib did against delhi ....67 was never going to be defended , so cant count this one ......anyways am still of the opinion hes no good for T20's !

 

[pakistani]

Sanath didn't get the 50. it was legby.

he was only 2 runs behind stupid uthapa got 9 runs for no reason

 

[12thMan]

TV is showing Jayasuriya 48 off 17

 

[jackal786]

Two tukloos are talking Amir and Jayasuriya

 

[12thMan]

Two tukloos are talking Amir and Jayasuriya

atleast no rubbing of heads

 

[jackal786]

exactly this just gave deccan a chance to fight for the 4th spot mathematically

Not even Gilchrist would be this optimistic with RP singh leaking 50 runs every match.

 

[Kriketer]

I hope Indian selectors were watching Ganguly's batting and captaincy in this game...haha

 

[Mohsin]

atleast no rubbing of heads

) ) ) ) )

Imagine the static from that!!!


Wait a minute................................whos got Raja Perves Ashraf's phone number, i've got an idea!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[W63L35]

This loss by Kolkata makes the battle for semis very very close!!! I sure 4th spot (or even 3rd spot) may be decided on net run rate.

 

[jackal786]

I hope Indian selectors were watching Ganguly's batting and captaincy in this game...haha

That's the important outcome of this match. Ganguly team loses. More importantly Sharukh's team.

 

[jackal786]

This loss by Kolkata makes the battle for semis very very close!!! I sure 4th spot (or even 3rd spot) may be decided on net run rate.

If it comes down to tie Kolkata will be really struggling with NRR> This is a huge loss.

 

[W63L35]

If it comes down to tie Kolkata will be really struggling with NRR> This is a huge loss.

Their next game is with Chennai and all they have to do is beat them to be at 12 points - same as #3 Chennai at the moment.

 

[dinakar]

Shaib won hands down against Sachin in this round, but lost meekly against Jaya. anyway, KKR badly needed this after their ugly celebrations in the end of last match.

 

[OZGOD]

Why wasn't Sharuk dancing when the cameras were on him? I wanted to see him do his dance!

 

[lollol]

^many other bowlers got owned by jayasuria... it wasnt really shoaibs fault.

Agarkar awas the only one who didnt leak runs against jayasuria. Sharma also leaked runs against him, but luckily jaysuria got a single and went off-strike

 

[Mohsin]

Why wasn't Sharuk dancing when the cameras were on him? I wanted to see him do his dance!

Wat is it with you and watching Shahrukh dance?!

 

[OZGOD]

Wat is it with you and watching Shahrukh dance?!

I don't know, something about him annoys me, the way he jumps around like a pork chop and squeals like a girl whenever the camera is on him lol. If I was sitting near him I'd risk being ejected from the stadium for the chance to throw a pie at him.

nice one!

good quality too

 

[lollol]

actually, this is low quality

Youtube is converting the file to the high-quality version (>2x better quality) and it will be available after a while. U can then click on 'high quality' to view it

 

[cars112]

Mixed day for Shoaib but an outrightly horrible one for Kolkata. Sanath's form is really helping Mumbai along.

 

[pakistanbest]

or it can be a six and then 2 more 4's

18 off the over

lol I WAS RIGHT MATE. SHOAIB OWNED SACHIN ) )
