Relax we will be back to normal next year. Got some good pieces in Tim David and a few others.

Congrats on securing wooden spoon. Not even NRR can save you now. Embarrassment for you but you have no shame

Even after 8 humiliating losses in a row and wooden spoon and umpires help, tuk tuk sharma blames it on lack of luck 

 

shameless bambais

 

should have been at least 12 losses if not for umpires

 

drs suddenly disappearing vs Conway and ball going way down leg side 

 

clear Tim David edge on 0 not given by Bambi umpire

 

rohiy should stop making excuses and work on his fitness

We're in a tailspin.

 

What gives?

 

The squad seems mediocre. Ro Sha is 5 seasons too old for this.

 

I'd be happy if we don't end up last.

 arrogance of both MI & CSK franchises was on show at auction table.. we are 5/4  time champions, we can pick mediocre teams and still will in it easily they must have thought.. look at MIs planning with brittle bumrah & archer.. rest of their bowlers won't even get picked for A teams forget national team

Absolutely.

 

Perhaps the management want to develop talent for the next few seasons.

 

Can't think of any other reason why the team would be filled with hitherto unknown entities like Hrithik Shokeen and Arshad Khan.

CSK still has decent batting.

Their bowling is atrocious.  Even a state team has better bowling.

your  scouting team of 2013 cannot guarantee picking gems even in 2023 esp Indian cricketers when other teams are much smarter now.. they should have been pragmatic and picked an allround team like RR instead of spending entire purse on kishan, archer and green

We barely won against the worst team of this IPL via the last ball of the innings.

 

Start of a :mi: revival or just a temporary blip and regular service of losing heavily from next game?

This is what happens when MI invest in a brittle breakdowner like Archer... the guy doesn't play for 18 month and then has discomfort in his elbow after bowling 8 overs... clearly if it aggravates he will miss more England test series... hes a lazy WI cricketer who rather collect fat pay checks than actually play serious Test matches- England got conned thinking they have the next Michael Holding in their team LOLS

I'd still temper our expectations and hope for the best. Our two best bowlers in Archer and Bumrah are both injured and not playing.

Fair. How would you rate Arjun's performance today?

 

You think he holds any promise?

Or just another trundler?

I'd rather look forward to see how he bats under pressure. How quickly he can score!!

 

 

His bowling run-up is quite tedious and his max speed is 130:sad_smile: . I don't think the management expects him to bowl his full quota in every game.

 

However he has the brains for bowling in the right areas and if it clicks like today it is a bonus. He needs to develop pace urgently.
