[Cricket] Indian Premier League (IPL) discussion thread

[|MINER|]

KKR has one of best batting line-up in this IPL season yet they were absolutely decimated yesterday. Also, overall KKR have been pretty mediocre this season tbh, one may wonder if Gambhir was really that great mentor last season that they performed extremely well back then and not without him this time around.

I didn't think mentors matter that much, but they may be important. Look at DC, they are doing good under KP as well.

I was also know that the kolkata knight riders have one of the most strong batting lineup on this Indian Premier League but the performance was really unexpected on the previous match now let see what they do with the Sunrisers Hyderabad team I think this match could be their recover oppurunity otherwise I think Kolkata Kinght Rider have to go through with huge struggle in this Indian Premier League.

The team won by a huge margin at their home ground in Kolkata. Despite losing two wickets early, they batted firmly and managed to score a reliable score. Although Hyderabad have good batsmen, they were under so much pressure in the beginning that they could not escape from that pressure in any way. Especially at the beginning of the match, the wicket of Travis Head was very important. When Travis Head returned, there was jubilation among the KKR fans. If Travis Head could have started well, then winning this match would not have been difficult. A good innings by Venkatesh Iyer and Rinku Singh from Kolkata enabled the entire team to a good score.

Actually, I also thought that maybe Kolkata Knight Riders will going to do the same worst performance as they do in the previous match. After losing two wickets of Sunil Narayan and Quinton de Kock. But who is saw some exceptional performance from the middle order to  lower order  batters which have been good indication for Kolkata night riders.
And about their bowling they also did the excellent performance in this match. I would say we say a good combination of batting and bowling in this match from Kolkata night riders which are cause of their wining.

Kolkata Knight Riders secured a decisive 80-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad, largely due to SRH's tactical mistake of choosing to bowl first on a batting-friendly pitch. KKR capitalized on this advantage, posting an impressive total of 200 runs in 20 overs. Venkatesh Iyer emerged as the top scorer, smashing 60 runs off just 29 deliveries, including 7 fours and 3 sixes

Today match is playing Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians expected high scoring match and exciting, I think Lucknow Super Giants batting lineup strong they have the ability to win this match.

Lucknow Super Giants have set a big target by batting first. Since the target is huge, the chances of winning will be in their favor. But in the meantime, Mumbai Indians have managed to score 47 runs in 4 overs by losing 2 wickets. In this situation, Mumbai Indians are also in a good position. Though they are a little behind in terms of wickets, if they are able to bat like this for a little longer, then it is not impossible to win this match. Naman Dhir is batting excellently. He has scored 31 runs in just 10 balls. If he can be persistent, Mumbai Indians will have a big chance of winning.

Lucknow Super Giant team have done great performance in today's match especially I will say and give full credit to their batting line up for their winning specially Mitchell Marsh who tooks 61 from 31 ball only and on the other hand Aiden Markram took 53 Run from 38 ball. And others team mates are also did balance performance with them.
And at the end of the day it's really worked with them to win this match.
And if I say about anything to Mumbai Indians then I have to say they are really did improvement from previous matches also there own a match against the Kolkata but their performance improve noticed in this match even they lose.

Today we have double header and first being CSK vs DC, honestly DC feels to be in better rhythm than CSK atm, also rumors are floating that Gaikwad is injured so we may see MSD back as captain which I refuse to believe.

2nd one will be very exciting match between Punjab Kings vs Rajasthan Royals. Although Punjab Kings are trailing a lot at the beginning of the 2nd innings, but if Glenn Maxwell can be set in the field, then chasing 205 is not difficult. Punjab Kings are still in a good position despite losing 4 wickets. Nehal Wadhera is batting well in today's match, if he and Glenn Maxwell can reduce the run rate per over, then Punjab Kings' chances of winning will increase.

Currently Punjab Kings was on fire, but I think it's already late they should perform this performance in the before.  I saw that there run rate was 10.60 in last 5 over and their loose only one wicket they did good in last 5 over part then need 75 Run from only 29 ball which is very difficult.
And they have only 5 wicket to go and the other friends the last hope for Punjab king Glenn Maxwell got out so I think  in the end of the day in this match I think Rajasthan Royals will going to be win.

GT vs SRH going on and GT is cruising towards target, GT had two early wickets fall which should have given hope to SRH but they should be back to being hopeless again, there is no way GT can lose from here (ref: 69 from 58 with 8 wickets in hand).

SRH vs GT scoreboard

So far we can see that Shubman Gail and Washington Sundor have made a very good partnership for GT, that is 90 runs in 55 balls. And they need 47 runs in 42 balls to win the match. And they still have 8 wickets in hand. So I think today's match can be a dream come true for SRH. But let's see what happens.
