What's new

Sunrisers Hyderabad beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 8 runs to win IPL 2016

Happy for Warner , he dint deserve to be in a losing side & I think hes carried the team all through ..easily the man of the tournament
 
Well played SRH. Didn't flustered amidst Gayle carnage. :11:


Feel sad fpr Kohli, but it's a reminder for him that never ever be complacent even for a moment until you get the job done.

Got to praise tje resolve of SRH. Deserving of IPL championship.
 
Yuvi finally gets to be a part of a team winning IPL plus this was probably an IPL where he performed as well :P
 
Bhuvneshwar now after being the best in IPL it's time to be the best in the world. Do it for India. :bhatti
 
I hope [MENTION=135134]CricketAnalyst[/MENTION] now realises the value of a good bowling unit in any format.
 
Warner should be the man of the tournament. It will be a shame if kohli gets it :srini
 
The passion commitment that Warner showed for franchise cricket is great to watch.. Aussies are such professionals kudos to them..
 
If kholi had selected sarfaraz khan instead of mediocre sachin baby ... result might be different

So disappointed. Supported a team heartfully first time after 8 seasons. Even chokers would be ashamed of losing from that situation. Fools.
 
Excellent match, worthy of a Final. I think, the turning point was Watto's dismissal; he could have won it as Baby was not out from other end.
 
Third Aussie captain to lift an IPL trophy(second one for Hyderabad) no wonder they get selected so easily.

BK is my MoM - in a match that produced 408 runs in 40 overs, someone going for 25 in 4 with couple in PP against Gayle deserves it.

Not really ,Sarfaraz is good and i hope they best for him in his coming years,but don't think Bhuvi and Fizz would do the same mistakes they did in the group match against him.

But at least he is better than baby in term of power hitting

:))) Chennai fans trying to get something out of this.

Where's your team boys. Heard they didn't make it to the playoffs :)
 
Bangalore missed badree and starc throughout.. Final was as I wanted it to be just the team I wanted to win lost 😥

I don't think so. Why is it about Bangladeshis every time? Can't you just say quite for sometime instead of poking your nose everywhere.

It's a fact. Bhuvi himself has said in some of his interviews that he's been trying to emulate fizz's yorker and showers since the beginning of this tournament :yk2

U should acknowledge it too, otherwise u never know What might happen if fizz stops giving valuable bowling tips to Bhuvi :yk
 
Only 2 teams bidded for Fizz in the auction, Bangalore and Hydrebad. Now imagine if RCB paid a few bucks extra

RCB have a history of making the most stupid decisions when it comes to buying or retaining players. It's a wonder they got the big 3 right.

Hardly surprising though, with someone like Mallya at the helm or at least the face of it.

I mean, who would buy an English player if he is not Joss Buttler or the Irishman.

?!?

Please post 1 post of mine where I said that bowling is unimportant.

Saying that aggressive batting is the way to go does NOT mean that bowling is unimportant.

Where on earth did I say bowling is not important?

I advocate for highly aggressive batting, but I have never said that bowling does not matter.

Please post one post mine where I said so?

You guys had Badree and Starc already mate ,SRH was the one in need of a good LOI bowler.
 
Kohli is such a champion. Just listen to the things he is saying in the post match presentation
 
Disappointed not to see any good bowler from non Asian teams except zampa

Kohli batted like Bradman in World T20 2014.

India lost.

Kohli batted like Bradman in World T20 2016.

India lost.

Kohli batted like Bradman in IPL 2016.

RCB lost.

Kohli has NEVER EVER won a T20 cup.

Just sad.

And Watson went for 61 while Jordan 45. Fizz went for 63 runs in 8 overs this season in B'lore



Watson is an AR. Kane Richardson and Jordan are the bowlers.

Yes, but how many matches they had to play on that pitch? What RCB missed is Bumrah, Starc or BK kind of bowler.

They performed well in patches.. I really like Russell he's quick, he packs a punch and my god his athleticism is unreal.. He shouldn't be in cricket he should have been in a more physically demanding sport tbh lol

starc is a big miss.

Fizz is effective in the death with those yorkers. Some missed the target but it happens he is young

If it wasn't for BK coming to rescue, the sixes hit by both Binny and Baby would've been a fatal blow for SRH.

21 runs in the last 2, with a wicket of Watson(should have had one more) on these wickets is a good result on these wickets. BK did well too, 15 odd runs in his 2 overs. Overall, Fizz had the best ER bowling at the death, around 7.3 and BK probably around 7.6 which too is excellent.
 
Honestly a great effort from SRH, considering they don't get the kind of fanatical local support other teams get. I am from Andhra and SRH is my second team.

On a side note, A pleasant surprise: my mom calling me from India to tell me that we're about to win, If I am not wrong the only other time she talked cricket was when Sachin retired.
 
15 crore rupees for Champion team! Lots of money! Will players get some chunk of money(or full) from 15 crore?

Anyone have knowledge? [MENTION=139664]street cricketer[/MENTION]?
 
What a great comeback and win by Hyderabad, really happy for warner
 
Very sad.

Love SRH but really felt it was RCB who deserved it.

Kohli really deserved it.

What to do.

RCB has choking in its blood.
 
ABD choking in yet another final, no surprises.

Now wait for his fans to pull up stats which are just good for show but not good enough for winning trophies :)))

Chokey chokey chokey. AB another chokey.

To be honest, its expected.

He has always choked in IPL matches when it matters for as long as I remember.

In T20I, he chokes too.

The IPL doesn't bother or concern me. I only watch IPL games that Rohit or Kohli have scored in. That too, replays.

I can however see how the IPL means so much to you because of the identity it seems to allow you to attach onto. Gotta hold on to that dearly bruh.

As for me, don't need the IPL for that. Got real life tangibles to do that for me :) :loserbangalorean
 
SO Hyderabad has 2 IPL titles under 2 different teams -- Deccan Chargers in 2009 and Sunrisers in 2016. Both the editions easily rank among the top 3 ever (2014 being the 3rd one)..

2016 was top 3?

I found it the most dull out of all editions.

I liked the 2014 one most.

Only silver lining of this one was Kohli masterclass.
