maniac Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Those 20 runs look like gold dust in the end. As I said not every pitch or conditon requires 30(12) in fact it’s impossible to get going in such conditions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zen Posted September 25, 2021 Author Share Posted September 25, 2021 3.3 • Bhuvneshwar to Rahul, no run Good length just outside off. Takes the pace off and Rahul misses the square cut. Too close to his body anyway. Past the outside edge to the wicketkeeper 3.2 • Bhuvneshwar to Rahul, no run Good length ball angling into middle, and clipped to midwicket 3.1 • Bhuvneshwar to Rahul, no run Good length outside off. Gentle dab to cover point off the front foot 2.4 • Sandeep to Rahul, no run Length ball outside off, and Rahul gets in shape to slap a cut. But the ball goes over the blade to the keeper 2.3 • Sandeep to Rahul, no run Good length on middle. Rahul moves towards the leg side and then punches an inside-out shot to cover 2.2 • Sandeep to Rahul, no run Good length just outside off stump. Punched straight back with the vertical bat on offer 1.2 • Bhuvneshwar to Rahul, no run Good length just outside off. Fended back to Bhuvi off the back foot 1.1 • Bhuvneshwar to Rahul, no run Fullish, outside off stump. Moving away. Looks to drive, but misses. Past the edge to the keeper. Minimal footwork, not to the pitch of the ball 0.2 • Sandeep to Rahul, no run Good length outside off stump. Moving inwards again. Comfortably punched off the back foot to mid off 0.1 • Sandeep to Rahul, no run Length ball outside off but moving into off stump. Carefully fended off the front foot towards Mayank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandey can make others look good but batted in the 2nd innings with a wkt down. SRH has only won 1 game so far in 8 games. Better teams will do better than that ... One has to look at KL's inning wrt the start of the game, facing the new ball with the pitch expected to slow down Edited September 25, 2021 by zen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonix768 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 KLR's innings looking ok now because SRH who are more than pathetic with bat this season, had crapped the chase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
