youngindia Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 You take out Gayle, Kohli and ABDV from RCB......certain win...... You take out Rohit, Pollard and Malinga from MI......certain win...... .... not fully understood. stronger sides can absorb failure of key players better and more often as they have alternatives. a side like NZ always ends up losing at the semis precisely for this reason.less depth in matchwinning talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranjha Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Maxwell is unstoppable. Not easy to set the field for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professional leagues aren't necessarily always about having the best squad.....it's about having the best team on the pitch.......and by team I mean a set of individuals who complement each other's abilities and skill set.......

These guys are all t20 specialist and very consistent ones at that And about local talent Punjab has always done well in that front bT it's harder to do it away from home this squad will perform much better in mohali and beating 2 biggest teams here is big bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's entertaining and that's enough I will definitely go to mohali and see maxwell in action :two_thumbs_up: But still think sides like Srh and rcb are stronger Anyway I am gonna study good night jalebi be regular here after 25 th :--D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBN Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Vohra and Gurkeerat have been in good form as well. I'm looking forward to Vohra. He could be an impact player up the order. The bowling looks out of sorts at the moment but on these pitches everybody is being carted around. Could've got better spinners for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Reminds me of Pune Puppies' start in IPL 2013. They won the first three and everyone was going absolutely crazy. Then they lost the next 12. :hehe: Clowns XI Punjab will take the same path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't compare puppies with the true Punjabi Lions (unlike the fake Idiyappam lions from Chennai :giggle:).......puppies had about 45 players in their squad with whom they'd play musical chairs every match.....they would change their captain 3 times a season......completely rudderless......Asli sheron are well organized and prepared this season.......

Zelig Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 They got the best overseas players next only to RCB, but they have peaked too early :hmmm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonas10 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 They need to drop guys under preforming and give guys like mandeep vohra opportunities. Mandeep can one day play for India Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sillymidoff Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 why do they show preity zinta so often during the live coverage? everytime a six is hit or a wicket is taken they cut straight to her celebrating. ipl needs to be more professional in its coverage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
