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

[Dios]

Warner goes at a crucial time. Had he stayed till the end SRH could have got around 220. But now I think 180 might be a challenge.

 

[Hasan123]

Big wicket for RCB

 

[King Kong]

There it is. RCB are gonna win it. Hope Kohli scores 81 and completes 1000 runs.

 

[Executioner]

yuvi has been good with his cameos and is the only performer in the middle order

 

[Smbhayi]

hopes we can score 50+ runs in last 5 overs! come on yuvi

 

[Dios]

Yuvraj really did not do justice to his talent.

 

[Prince_]

Vintage Yuvi

 

[Dios]

Hooda is too much of a hack.

 

[street cricketer]

Yuvraj really did not do justice to his talent.

Tbf to him, he had to deal with cancer.

But yeah, he could've had a better career in the longer format.

 

[street cricketer]

SRH batting = Warner + 1/2 Yuvi + 1/4 Dhawan.

 

[Muhammad10]

SRH will do very well to get close to 190 now. Need some dashing cameos.

 

[Dios]

SRH batting crumbles after Warner's departure as usual.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

RCB wont be able to hit Mustafiz

 

[marlonbrowndo]

SRH batting = Warner + 1/2 Yuvi + 1/4 Dhawan.

3/4th is Warner

 

[Executioner]

SRH anthem is irritating and they keep playing it. Go go go go doesn't stop

 

[street cricketer]

SRH anthem is irritating and they keep playing it. Go go go go doesn't stop

Go go go go go go go go go go go go you're the orange army!

 

[Muhammad10]

Ben is Cutting loose here.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Gayle will obviously fail against any good bowling lineup so SRH dont have to worry. Its all about Kohli and AB and I feel mustafiz will trouble them

 

[King Kong]

Kohli won't get out for a less score again. He looks hungry to score big after that duck.

 

[street cricketer]

An Englishman bottling in the final!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Its not right that Garbage like Jordan get so much money. 6 straight full tosses in the last over. Too much mediocrity getting rewarded for nothing. RCB couldve chosen a better foreign bowler

 

[Muhammad10]

16 run over. Excellent!

184 with one over to go.

 

[Hasan123]

SRH have got a decent score. Upto bhuvi with the new ball and fizz at the death

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Out of the ground! Is that a no ball too?

 

[Hasan123]

Humongous hit from cutting!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Muhammad10]

Cutting is on fire! :AAG

 

[Dios]

Cutting >>>>>> Henriques

 

[street cricketer]

That should get 30 runs!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Crazy hitting

 

[King Kong]

That was a noball.

 

[Dios]

That should have been a no-ball plus free hit as well. Watson got away with it.

 

[street cricketer]

Always love to see Watson treated like the trundler he is.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

RCB winning would be a fitting and fair end.

SRH to much dependent on 1 batsmen to score runs.

Hope RCB wins this.

 

[Executioner]

What hitting

 

[Hasan123]

This is where ipl scouting is good. Cutting isn't a regular in Australian team but SRH and Tom Moody would know him from big bash and scouted him

 

[Imran Hasan]

What a inning from Cutting! WoW

 

[street cricketer]

The Aussie and the English have bottled it) ) )

 

[Muhammad10]

117 metres!

 

[Hasan123]

Kohli in a pressure game chasing. Usally there's only 1 winner

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Cutting is a pakka useless hack but wow...he has smashed them.

Take a bow.

 

[aniket1911]

Wonder if cutting and yuvraj were playing from beginning.

 

[Dios]

61 runs conceded by Watson

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Kohli in a pressure game chasing. Usally there's only 1 winner

I wouldn't be too sure.

208 is a formidable total.

Hope RCB wins but 208 is a goooooooooood target.

 

[Hasan123]

The Aussie and the English have bottled it) ) )

T20 world cup made Jordan look better than he is. Got a decent yorker other than he's erratic and bang average

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Warson's wickets are ALWAYS flukey.

Just a good bowler to finish up overs.

Not a death over material.

 

[Imran Hasan]

It would be a hell of a match If RCB can manage to chase or come close to the target.

 

[Hasan123]

I wouldn't be too sure.

208 is a formidable total.

Hope RCB wins but 208 is a goooooooooood target.

Kohli will play his normal game. Need gayle ab and Watson to do there thing today

 

[Executioner]

Always love to see Watson treated like the trundler he is.

Yeah never rated him as a bowler . World class batsman no doubt .

He simply gets a lot of wicket courtesy of the pressure being built up by the other bowlers. His bowling lacks penetration.

 

[jusarrived]

Too big a total , RCB will choke . Unfortunately the most boring team of the lot to win this time .

 

[Dios]

If anyone can chase this down then it's RCB but they have to do it against Fizz. Oh and Bhuvneshwar too.

 

[jusarrived]

Yeah never rated him as a bowler . World class batsman no doubt .

He simply gets a lot of wicket courtesy of the pressure being built up by the other bowlers. His bowling lacks penetration.

Hes got a very well directed bouncer which he uses very well . I wudnt say hes overrated

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Highest total in an IPL final?

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Its just amazing how T20 is rewarding for the most unskilled but powerful hacks.

Cutting couldn't get bat on ball for the fist part of his innings except for a easy pie full toss which he smashed for 6.

Now look at the ending.

 

[Hasan123]

RCB need one of Kohli or ab facing fizz in the death overs.

 

[street cricketer]

Yeah never rated him as a bowler . World class batsman no doubt .

He simply gets a lot of wicket courtesy of the pressure being built up by the other bowlers. His bowling lacks penetration.

Not that I have anything against Watto.

But I've always wondered how batsmen struggle to score runs against him in T20s. He's not a special bowler but a normal wicket to wicket bowler who bowls with some good discipline.

 

[Executioner]

80-20 for SRH.

 

[Imran Hasan]

If anyone can chase this down then it's RCB but they have to do it against Fizz. Oh and Bhuvneshwar too.

One of them or perhaps both could ending up as Villain!

 

[King Kong]

RCB fans. No worries. It seems like Kohli intentionally got out for a duck in the last match to redeem himself in this final. He will win it with the help of ABD. Gayle obviously goes for less score as this is final. I hope he gives a firing start.

 

[badlapur]

Only Bhuvneshwar can win this game for SRH. He has carried the SRH bowling and should win it for them.

 

[big_gamer007]

How on earth was that 117mts only if yuvis hit against Brett lee was 119mts??? How do they calculate it??

 

[badlapur]

There is a saying in cricket that your best bowler seldom takes the wicket but your lesser bowler does. This is because batsman are more cautioned and concentrating against the better bowlers but not as much.

Do you know that Al Amin is no. 6 in t20 rankings? He took the wickets when it was Taskin and Fizz who built up the pressure.

The same way BK and fizz has built up a lot of pressure and that helped Henriques and co. in the middle to get some wickets with ordinary bowl. SRH bowling isn't special at all without nehraji. It's those two bowler who made the others look so good.

However thjs where the best batsman excel. Kohli Warner Amla Sanga, they are always focused. You won't see them getting dismissed

 

[big_gamer007]

Small stadium.

Even considering small stadium seeing from the naked eye both hits this one looked like bigger..

 

[Messiah]

RCB's mediocre bowling has caught up with them at the most important moment. This total is way too big and will take something very special from multiple batsmen, not just kohli. You can be sure srh bowlers wont gift 6 balls like watto and jordan and co

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Lol Indian domestic bowlers are utter crap.

 

[CricketAnalyst]

Cutting is a pakka useless hack but wow...he has smashed them.

Take a bow.

He is a top quality hack who is criminally misused because he gets too few overs.

Gorgeous clean hitter especially off pacers.

Good clean hitter becomes valuable (for a long time) when he knows how to play tougher balls well.

Maxwell is a great hitter (poor form now) but this guy doesn't look like that.

Could be he was out of touch just today or maybe he isn't that good.

Last time they conceded 227 here

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Ominous signs. Gayle looking focused.

 

[Smbhayi]

Only thrice has a team scored more than 208 in IPL2016 so far: all three times it has been RCB - CricInfo

 

[jusarrived]

His hits where not clean , hes not even a top quality hack ..just his day today

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol what. It was Jordan and Watson who failed here. The likes of Bhuvi Sran bowl decent so far

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Gayle's gonna win this.

 

[Dios]

Warner never improvises. Always adheres to his pre-prepared script. Should have given the ball to Fizz straightaway after Bhuvi's first over to try and exploit the scoreboard pressure. Even if Fizz bowls a brilliant over next, he'll be taken off and made to bowl three overs at the death.

 

[street cricketer]

Gayle lighting up Chinnaswamy!

 

[Muhammad10]

Boxer getting dispatched by Gayle, atm.

His captaincy is very predictable

 

[Hasan123]

Gayle Storm

 

[Muhammad10]

Gayle finally showing up in a final.

 

[Hasan123]

Warner has to bring mustafizur on. He could get a tight over or maybe even a wicket
