Don Sharma Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I am not sure if Hussey can strike it at 140+ right away. Having said that even his run a ball 40 could be crucial if it is going to be another low scoring game. Alrite...even if Hussey gets the nod ahead of Bailey, I wudn't be disheartened, as long as CSK win. I rest my case.:shakehands:
Zap_Brannigan Posted May 22, 2009 Author Posted May 22, 2009 As long as CSK wins, i am ok. I didnt even pick Hussey as my choice. I went the Nitini route to strengthen the bowling.
zubinpepsi Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I think Dhoni will prefer Hussey ahead of bailey.. I dont see Ntini getting selected.. so haydos n hussey will replace bailey and oram.. what abt the 7 indian players.. I think thats also a problem.. wud he go for both ashwin n jakati n drop balaji n bring in tyagi?
Shane Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Probable CSK XI Hayden Parthiv Raina Hussey MSD Morkel Jakati/Ashwin Gony Murali Balaji Tyagi
zubinpepsi Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Probable CSK XI Hayden Parthiv Raina Hussey MSD Morkel Jakati/Ashwin Gony Murali Balaji Tyagi im not sure abt Gony... we have already 6 bowlers excluding Gony.. so i wud go in for a batsman instead of Gony... but lookin at the position.. i think Badri will be a misfit... so Gony might sound a reasonable thing, if he can slog.. a quickfire 20 is jus enough..
Lord Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 my CSK XI: Hayden Parthiv Raina Badri MSD Morkel Oram Jakati Gony Tyagi Murali
Shane Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 im not sure abt Gony... we have already 6 bowlers excluding Gony.. so i wud go in for a batsman instead of Gony... but lookin at the position.. i think Badri will be a misfit... so Gony might sound a reasonable thing, if he can slog.. a quickfire 20 is jus enough.. I picked Gony for his batting which btw can be (> Oram), he can give the ball a serious tonk, a couple of sixes and his place in the side is justified. Oram, other than the one innings of 54* (can't remember against whom) has done very little with the bat, with Mussey in, CSK's middle order too would be bolstered. Its either of these two, Bailey at the Top or Mussey in the middle, would be disappointed to see Oram in the side from CSK's perspective.
Don Sharma Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I would like to see both Jakati and Ashwin in the team.
Shane Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I would like to see both Jakati and Ashwin in the team. :offtopic: Where is that chick in your pic ? Why has your display pic suddenly turned fugly :hitler:
Shane Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I would like to see both Jakati and Ashwin in the team. That would mean 4 spinners against the likes of RD, Ross Taylor, Virat Kohli and co. I don't think that it would be such a good idea.

I dont think gony can replace oram... gony mite have to replace badri or balaji.. oram shud definitely not be playing.. i have seen gony hitting huge 6s.. so maybe he can replace badri at no.7...

Zap_Brannigan Posted May 22, 2009 Author Posted May 22, 2009 Murali and Raina are offspiners. So i dont think we need another one in a team filled with RHB. Jakati will play instead of Ashwin.

RD will milk runs as usual but we got other plans for him.:girly1: Ross owns the Leg Side, be it the spinner or the quicker men, with Offies in the line up, he certainly can take a linking to them, remember the Delhi game where he smashed the Offie for 3 sixes in one over, Virat is axe-cellent against the spinners, we seen him the way handled the CSK spin threat in the 130 game, scoring a brisk 38 odd in that game and another reference is the SL ODI series last year, during Mendis-Mania.

Don Sharma Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Who? :dontknow: Thalaiver means Boss, you know Rajini right? Ross owns the Leg Side, be it the spinner or the quicker men, with Offies in the line up, he certainly can take a linking to them, remember the Delhi game where he smashed the Offie for 3 sixes in one over, Virat is axe-cellent against the spinners, we seen him the way handled the CSK spin threat in the 130 game, scoring a brisk 38 odd in that game and another reference is the SL ODI series last year, during Mendis-Mania. That's all right, but the way Ashwin bowled against KXIP was really amazing. He deserves a place in the team but I agree, playing four spinners in the side makes little sense. I am confused:dontknow: watever it is CSK should win.
