nevada Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Stoinis bowled poorly. His job was to bowl cutters with pace off. He fed AB with hittable balls instead. coffee_rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All about timing, luck and team they chose. With RCB he will retire with a big zero, still be the greatest IPL player.

Lone Wolf Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 3 minutes ago, New guy said: Mishra went for 11 in his last over with even Patidar hitting him. He would 100% have been hit for 20 in next over with them starting attacking way sooner AB struggles against leg spin.. Stoinis is just useless with the ball. Everytime he has been expensive in this IPl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a daughter he refused to acknowledge as his until she was a grown up.

IndianCapitals Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 (edited) Just now, Cricspin said: Quickest to 5000 IPL runs in terms of balls faced: 1) AB de Villiers - 161 innings, 3288 balls 2) David Warner - 135 innings, 3554 balls 3) Suresh Raina - 173 innings, 3620 balls 4) Rohit Sharma - 188 innings, 3817 balls 5) Virat Kohli - 157 innings, 3827 balls 6) Shikhar Dhawan - 168 innings, 3956 balls Virat is just ahead of his buddy Dhawan. Raina and only 10 balls less than his other buddy tuk tuk sharma virat played number 3 for longest time so it’s ok to a fair extent raina stands out for sure.

New guy Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 (edited) 18 minutes ago, IndianCapitals said: You’re blindly defending pant and that’s ok. That was poor captaincy. Most here have acknowledged that, commentators have acknowledged that im moving on And i said the logic why, Mishra went for runs when RCB was struggling so was removed. You cannot bowl a leg spinner in the 20th over to AB If you have seen even a single t20 match you will know captains keep a weak bowler for 20th over and bowl their best bowlers between 15 to 19 P.S> blind hatred is way worse than blind criticism Edited April 27, 2021 by New guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuarantineTormentino Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Pant took a risk that didn’t pay off, I think it was bold of him... he was banking on the other regular bowlers applying pressure on ABD and eventually getting him out.. but ABD batted smartly Jamadagni, New guy and nevada 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
