IPL | Mumbai vs Bangalore | Mumbai | 20/4/08

haha. They will be back when Tendu and Steyn??? come in. I think Steyn is playing some domestic cricket in SA.

Do these games have any local commentators? I watched the McCullum match and there were just regular commentators and no commentator was really supporting a team and was boring listening to it but I thought it is opening game so maybe different. Another match I saw I had commentary off.

Why is Neeta Ambani giving out the prize for MOM? just because she is Mrs. Mukesh Ambani?

 

[Blitzkrieg]

whats bothers me is they keep the name Indians and get royally thrashed.

oh come on buddyy....there are people named suraj,mohammed,jesus,shiva,krishna..that doesnt mean u r thrashing the actually person!!

So what if she gives...She can...She is a Mumbaikar and match is held in Mumbai....

Good point. Cant argue with that.

But if a guys called Krishna is thrashed...then we will say Krishna is thrashed. Same with other godly named people.

So Indians beign thrashed said in this context does not imply in any way that Indian population are being thrashed.

 

[Garuda]

Well she can but never seen in usual matches. Usually its someone related to cricket or politician.

why even have a ceremony after every match? That stuff is just boring but they do it to increase air time I guess.

This is all getting marketted on celebrities and rich people. It is not about the team when you listen to some comments like Dr Malia will be happy after losing the first match. It should be RC team (and you can add fans) will be happy.

I am sure next year they will start changing a bit after selling effort this year

I would like to know the view of both the captains after the match. So a small talk works for me.

Though sometimes they give almost taped version.

 

[jusarrived]

to be fair its just the first season , if you compare the first match in B'lore and todays in just a span of 2 days time the talk is more about cricket now , than about the celebrities & extra entertainment ......give it some time , b4 you make a judgment .

 

[12thMan]

^^^ I know what you are saying and I am sure that is what will happen. If there is entertaintment it will be more for the people on the ground (they have a choice to watch the pitch or the entertaintment). And that is one of the selling points of T20 now (not just cricket) and if people like to see the whole thing then come to the ground
