[Cricket] Indian Premier League (IPL) discussion thread

[|MINER|]

GT vs RR, GT would have been favorite of all, cause of course they are table toppers but RR out of nowhere with this RR 14 yr old kid completely destroys GT, and mind you GT has one of best if not the best bowling attacks in IPL.

That's why wise people always say, no matter how weak the other party or the team is, don't take them that much lightly that can they can became as pressure to you. I think what happened with Gujarat Titans was that they took Rajasthan Royals very lightly and they got their revenge by losing.
Honestly, I didn't think Rajasthan Royals would be able to win this match even after being given a target of 210 runs. But unfortunately, they managed to win through an outstanding batting performance.

Delhi Capitals seem to have an edge in today's match against Kolkata Knight Riders, primarily due to their strong batting lineup. Delhi's batsmen have been performing well, and their recent form shows promise. Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, have been struggling to secure victories, making this match crucial for them.

The thing that I am most impressed with in the match is Vaibhav Suryavanshi's batting which I think has surprised the entire cricket world again. How can a boy of just 14 years old play so devastatingly? In the 38 balls he faced, he hit 7 fours and 11 sixes which is truly astonishing to the cricket world. With such a batting performance, there is no obstacle to winning the match. Rajasthan Royals chased 209 runs in just 15.5 overs. Vaibhav Suryavanshi will definitely be able to become one of the best batsmen in the world cricket.

I was in the same thought where you were in, but the KKR changed the scenario they made 204 run and losses 8wicket. I can say it's a good target for the opponent team as t20 format. All the batsmen did their good contributions in this match I am also glad to see that no-one did focus on their personal run in this match all of them try to score and maintaining the strike rate high and that's why we didn't see any of them in half century.

But now they have do to the bowling well for winning because delhi capitals won't gonna give them the easy skip as they also have the good performer batsmen so still this match is on unpredictable for me.

I didn't watch DC's chase full, I thought match is in DC's hands when Faf and Axar were batting, I slept and in morning just watched highlights and was bit surprised that KKR turned out to be a winner, despite the loss Vipraj still did well — the temperament to perform under pressure is commendable quality and is must have for players.

Like you, I too could not see the last score of this match. However, I checked a while ago and saw that Delhi Capitals lost to Kolkata Knight Riders by a very narrow margin of run.
Initially, when Kolkata Knight Riders were targeting over 200 runs, I thought the match was going to be tough for Delhi Capitals, but I had a little hope that Delhi Capitals could win this match. However, they played well but came under pressure towards the end and could not score any more. However, Delhi Capitals' last few matches have not been going well.

Chennai Super Kings have lost a match against Punjab Super Kings before but in that match they had a close performance meaning we saw a tough fight in that match.
Now I don't know if we will see the same today. But if Chennai Super Kings don't make some of the same mistakes this time then they can win this match even if Punjab Kings are five ranks above them. However, if we talk about other metrics, Chennai Super Kings are currently one of the worst performing teams, so it is natural that they will not win and that is what I will do.

I heard commentators in one of CSK's prior matches saying that Hooda averages peanuts in 100 or so matches played and that too with just around 100 strike rate — it's absurd to me, how someone like Dhoni still keeps giving him chances. A complete waste of slot.

As in yesterday's game, he had no game awareness, when he came he had Dube on other side who can hit big but he went for biggie himself and lost his wicket, which revealed tail and collapse ensued.
