Let me ask you a simple question. It is by far the most important question that you, or any human has to answer? Who is the real hero of the Illiad/Trojan war? You would be tempted to say Achilles. But Achilles dragged around Hector's corpse after killing him. Where is the honour in that? Hector was honourable. He fought for his family and country as ordered. And died. Not a selfish bone in his body. Do you come to our thread and despoil the corpse a la Achilles? Edited April 15, 2022 by Mariyam Vijy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you will to come to our thread and despoil the corpse a la Achilles? hector >> achilles as a human being. but, for better or worse, achilles finished on the winning side and therefore ended up achieving (literary) immortality. I wouldn't say I am mocking the team as such (lots of sincere/committed players), but rather the hubris of the management. for instance, over-investing in jofra was (IMO) a bad move since we don't really know what shape he will be in next year. there were lots of strange decisions made, and it seemed to me that the TM was walking the Greek path of hubris.

I think everyone is tired of the kebabs now. Mark my words, we need one good innings at the top. And things will magically fall in place. I've seen many of the other games. No one is markedly better this IPL. Everyone is beatable if we get our act right. Vijy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zen Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 If I am not wrong, the record for most consecutive losses is with KKR & Pune Warriors, both lost 9 games on the trot in 2009 & 2013 respectively ... Most losses in a row across seasons is at 11 for Pune Warriors 2012-2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vickydev Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Rohit and Kishan need a look at themselves. Big names and such massive massive letdowns in such brilliant batting conditions. The 18 yo new comer is putting them to shame with his positive approach. Even Unadkat and Murugan are smashing it Stan AF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan AF Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share Posted April 16, 2022 Deserving loss again. 0-6 is a new low. Serves right for screwing up the auction in taking ishan, unadkat, thampi and least of all Ashwin over chahal who is winning matches for RR almost single handedly. On a team which boasted high profile foreign pacers we have to be now content with sams and mills. What's Riley Meredith doing warming up the bench. Ishan needs to be dropped again just like he was dropped last year. The kid doesn't have a good head over his shoulders. Needs a lot of whupping. Get your act together, Rohit. It'll be soon 0-10 at this rate. Mariyam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote When his name pops up onscreen, it’s a hint that what’s ahead is coming from a specific mindset that includes relentless gags, visual puns, meta asides, and a heavy dose of surrealism, all delivered with lightning speed. He’s not trying to play nice, like Disney, who he often mocked in his cartoons. Edited April 16, 2022 by DarkProfile Mariyam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan AF Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share Posted April 16, 2022 (edited) What's the status of Riley Meredith?. If he's not injured and available to play it makes no sense to keep him in the bench. MI could start early and look at letting go off players at the end of this season. I'd start with ishan, sams and mills right away. I don't know what the process is but it's better to let these players back into the player pool. Edited April 16, 2022 by Stan AF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
