suraj Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 My bad days tarted even before a ball is bowled. I though Bailey would play in the middle order where he has to face two very good spinners in the form of Junta and StyleBhai. He is opening and he has an excellent T20 strike rate of 120. Dinda' date=' Anureet and co. My prayers to get him out. Actually I should pray Parthiv to get him out.[/quote'] I thought the same thing and excluded him

karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Bailley, Parthiv, Raina and Dhoni were my initial picks. Went with Albie and Badri instead. Interesting to see how it works.

karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 You might have had to drop McCullum to keep both MSD and P P I know. It was too much of a gamble. But I really did have a gut feeling that Parthiv and Bailley would perform today. I hate when my mind and heart refuse to sync.
karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I guess I tried to get too much into Dhoni's mind. Bailley's first game and Parthiv's form do not make them an ideal opening pair especially with Bailley being a middle-order batsman and Badri being in good form.
suraj Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I think I completely messed up the SS today first took Hayden then dropped him, then took players who prolly will not even bat today I should have stayed out of this match
karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Bailley gets 30. He seems to be a good fielder and might get an extra 8. I just hope he does not take a hat-trick ;). I shall take even 10 points from Badri. Safe move from Bobby. Did not sub Ishant and Junta has no wicket yet and doesn't look like getting one.
karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Shukla without batting and bowling gets 24. Wonder if anyone achieved that so far.
suraj Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 How abt a hat-trick in his fourth ;) He gave away more in the 4th!!
karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Subsituted Mendis for Ishant. -40 and got Badri in. another -20. Great day.
suraj Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Subsituted Mendis for Ishant. -40 and got Badri in. another -20. Great day. I don't know why I even bother picking any KKR players
karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I don't know why I even bother picking any KKR players How about JUntha doing a Munna
karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Only one guy in the top 20 has Dada. Nice time for him to perform. NO pressure. ;)
karteekmvs Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I was wondering how many make changes regularly to their SS teams.
ViruRulez Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 all the people whom I did not select in SS are performing today .. McCullum is on fire and Albie Morkel also fired.. Bailey did not do much and Hussey and Hodge not looking to get a chance soon :wall:

ViruRulez Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Dude you might just end up losing all the hard work done in the earlier days. yes I also fear that .. I dont know what happened to McCullum today .. he is hitting even more faster than what Hayden done throughout IPL 2 ... he is perhaps batting faster than YKP and he has already crossed 70 :wall:
