Stan AF Posted May 3, 2023 Author Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) back to back wins....Bowling needs to stand up and deliver.. Edited May 3, 2023 by Stan AF
Stan AF Posted May 10, 2023 Author Posted May 10, 2023 I'm actually surprised we're in the top 4 (3 now) given out bowling attack(let's face it, it isn't an attack it is more of a mirage). I for sure thought this wasn't possible given how inadequate the bowling is. The batting has picked up and it's looking decent so far with sky blue Yadav being the superior exception with a decent mention of Tilak. Tilak still needs to work on his power game.... Wadhera is doing good for a rookie. Ishan needs to deliver more consistently like the two games he has done. I'm not worried about Rohit's form..he will either hit out or get out and he won't waste balls doing so. Still needs to work on the bowling if we are going to be anywhere close to win the championship... Mariyam 1
Mariyam Posted May 12, 2023 Posted May 12, 2023 Wadda way to make a comeback. Demolished the defending champs. No sweat. Walk in the park.

RedFever Posted May 12, 2023 Posted May 12, 2023 Need to win both of the remaining games against LSG and SRH. Only way we can win the tournament is being in top 2. Laaloo 1
zen Posted May 13, 2023 Posted May 13, 2023 MI has overachieved (Thanks largely to the exceptional form of SKY) in this IPL. I expected it to win 4-6 games but it has won 7 so far, which is at 50% of 14 games. SKY

Stan AF Posted May 16, 2023 Author Posted May 16, 2023 When every other bowler went for 30 or lesser, Jordan gave 24 in an over and overall 50. Lost the game then and there. The team has done great considering the absence of two fast bowlers (Bumrah, Archer) and middle order batter Tilak varma. Can be proud of this season already. Mariyam, Laaloo and IndiaWC8311 2 1
Mariyam Posted May 16, 2023 Posted May 16, 2023 (edited) ^ I have a working theory here. 'Jordan' isn't a cricketer. He's forged some identification and pretends to be Jordan the cricketer. The real Jordan is probably sipping on his pina colada by a beach in the Caribbean while enjoying his IPL $ that he is sharing with the impostor Jordan who is bowling for us.

Stan AF Posted May 21, 2023 Author Posted May 21, 2023 This is a gift(considering our bowling) and an even bigger responsibility to be in the playoffs.
vvvslaxman Posted May 21, 2023 Posted May 21, 2023 Every opposition will hope for Jordan to hit his "form" lol
Laaloo Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 Please end the fascination with Jordan. You can't play him and behrendoff in the same game. Although considering the game is in Chennai I guess shokeen will play or they will go with kartikey IndiaWC8311, asterix and Stan AF 2 1

Stan AF Posted May 24, 2023 Author Posted May 24, 2023 Today was a good day for bowling but i still feel that GT & CSK's bowling units are better than us. Mariyam 1
Mariyam Posted May 24, 2023 Posted May 24, 2023 This, right now, is happiness. My parents came home after nearly 3 months. My dad is convalescing and barely left his home in this time. My daughter who is learning the violin played him some old times that she learned just to play for him. I missed a good chunk of the LSG innings coz of all this. And Madhwal got us into the semis. I don't want to jinx us, but given our morale I don't see GT stopping us. Even Jordan bowled well. zubinpepsi, zen, nevada and 5 others 7 1
