Ankit_sharma03 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 5 hours ago, zen said: The issue that K11 need to rectify is close game where they play their best cricket. They have only managed to beat RCB so far that too mainly because of dropped catches. It appears as if KL is also seeking to play consistent innings (for avg?) rather than impactful ones. Death bowling n finisher they lack both Neesham, maxi n sarfu may or may not fix finisher issue but death bowling looks a problem. Also stage 2 will come when teans will comeup with a plan against bishnoi n ashwin. Chalo atleast mujeeb is a backup but then again where are death bowlers Death bowling is an issue and teams like KKR n MI with lower middle order hitting can prove dangeorus for them.

Ankit_sharma03 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Loosing such close matches twice will prove costly in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevada Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I thought where they lost the plot was while batting. They unnecessarily got bogged down towards the end and ended up 25 runs short. Rahul couldn't get going and Maxi missed out on adding 10-12 extra runs with that weird stance and moving around into he crease. They failed to bat RR out of the game and it came back to sting them in the final few overs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aditya19 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 220 is a good score to defend...they lost in death bowling which is a weakness. shami came in an over late when samson was getting restless and smacked maxwell for 3 sixes in that over. with their openers doing so well they should play the extra bowler instead of Neesham.

SK_IH Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Each team is going in with 6 bowling options & Punjab is playing only 5 bowlers out of which two are all rounders & one is a rookie leg spinner. They need a massive overhaul to compete in this tournament. They cannot play both Maxwell & Pooran together, especially with both openers in good form.

Tibarn Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 This stat addresses what I was predicting before the tournament started: they may need to play 2 overseas bowlers for the death. It feels like they missed a trick by not buying some talented, young Indian batsman. Shami would be best used if he bowled all 4 of his overs before the death, ideally with 3 in the powerplay itself. Punjab's batting isn't exactly deep, but Rahul, Aggarwal, and Nair have to take up the responsibility as the most experienced Indian batsmen in the squad to get the team good scores . I don't have much faith in Sarfraz or Mandeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jalebi_bhai Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Bowling attack lacks pedigree. Batting looks good on paper but so far has underwhelmed. Looking like a lkc season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pooran is at least a newish player. I expect Gayle to replace one of them eventually if they don't start performing. The problem for KXIP is that their season is drifting away already.

Sonix768 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 They lack good bowlers at death obviously. Also their lack of patience on bowlers and abundant patience on Maxwell is perplexing. One freakish hitting in sharjah, they abandoned Cotteral as death bowler and bowled Gowtham at the hands of Pandya and Pollard. One freakish last over, they discarded Jordan. They have mujeeb in the wings also if im not wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffee_rules Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Great advice from KL’s colleague from Kar. Mayank, Mandeep can play that role, there should be no anchor in T20 Ankit_sharma03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
