vvvslaxman Posted April 27, 2023 Author Posted April 27, 2023 Hope KT Kunjumon plays and scores some runs. He needs to make use of it given that IPL performance is a selection criteria
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 RR is my 2nd team but attempting to support too as it is Dhoni’s farewell season (Just for Dhoni for this season) So almost 50/50 with the support, and hopefully the game will be close too
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 Sanju appeared a bit nervous at the toss … While MSD confidently said “no change / same side”
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 Hopefully, RR has not put the pressure of having to do well in its 200th game.
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 Akash bowled half vollies that Jaiswal dispatched for back to back 4s … that would have settled some nerves
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 3rd 4 off the over Though an issue with Jaiswal is that his SR dips post PP
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 It appears as if RR has made a few tactical errors (assuming this is a good batting surface): * batted first with 3 spinners playing (dew if it comes will make it tough for spinners) * the pitch, at the moment, looks good for batting (though need to see what happens once the ball gets soft), which will work for CSK. It appears as if RR did not want a previous Chennai like track (how we Chennai track looks good for batting at the moment but it could change when the pitches get tired as the tournament progresses) * Bowling first on this pitch may allow CSK spinners to get more grip (pace isn’t working for CSK at the moment. One can say that CSK lacks a pace attack) tweaker 1
Vickydev Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 (edited) Jaiswal is feasting on the hapless Akash Edited April 27, 2023 by Vickydev
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 That looked out (unless pitching outside leg or slight edge)
asterix Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 Dhoni under pressure loses a DRS too. Desperate time. He’s now turned to his Lankan Aces to save the situation.
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 Dhoni has over dyed his hair and beard .. Should show some more grey
zen Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 64/0 after PP … more importantly Buttler still at the crease
Vickydev Posted April 27, 2023 Posted April 27, 2023 Big score incoming with Butter still to get in demolition mode
