Lol we lost by 6. Your team was 5 down for 50 chasing 200 last game.

 

So? Was it a pressure game for GT? It was only playing last year's wooden spooner!

So what? Chasing is chasing. Mumbai almost chased down 178 on this uneven pitch. You can hardly say Mumbai can't chase under pressure.

Don't trouble yourself with faltu logic

 

Let it chase or even win against SRH, and if so I will give it some credit ... MI is playing at Wankhede so it should be easy for it on paper! 

 

So far MI mostly won due to being in nothing to lose situations and due to SKY's exceptional form (He failed here and MI lost). However, SKY is not a clutch player (he can do well occasionally but I would not rely on him in important games). 

 

Even before the game, I had felt that LSG will pull this off even if it plays bad cricket!

Jordan for Archer.

Not that it makes any difference.

 

Basically tilak Varma and two fast bowlers are injured for MI. And yet we're still in the competition :thumb:

Barely.

 

If it comes down to NRR, we are in the red.

 

We need to win big against SRH to ensure qualification.

 

That LSG CSK washout has done wonders to the chances of the qualification of both of those sides.

Great variations. One of the ball clocked 141 kph. So he is slowly getting back to his old himself.

That wide yorker that he bowled to Green was pacy and accurate. 9/10 times, you would lose defending 11 runs. That was a brilliant over.

Short run up but was hitting 140+ in that last over. 

He has still not hit the top speeds that we saw last year. May be it's the injury and he doesn't want to overstretch himself or he wants to maintain line and length now. Was hitting 150's last year.

Exactly. He becomes very predictable. He scores half of his runs in the fine leg / square leg region. He will be easily found out. 

 

he plays with the field, not the region. if they have fielders there, he will play somewhere else. he is not a power hitter but a manipulator of the field.

Is there anywhere i can see the last over? Lot of appreciation for Moshin

he tamed two of the best hitters in this IPL.
