vvvslaxman Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 Loots Bosman? Ya.. not sure what kind of form he is in. But he played couple of destructive T20 innings against England.
SachDan Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 ^ IIRC he was part of the Mumbai squad in the first edition of IPL.
Sachin=GOD Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 ^and played only 1-2 matches methinks. Did'nt make much of an impact.
bulbul Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 MI on top of the league mainly because of Malinga...even though others performed well he is the main factor they maintained their lead from beginning. He is the only bowler in the league whom Teams afraid of....

He is the only bowler in the league whom Teams afraid of.... Just to avoid him they take risks against others and gets out. He castled even his own team members Sanga and Mahela albeit after Mahela put up a match winning score.. Very hard for noobs to pick him up. Even Sachin and Viru were dismissed in world cup.

Have you seen him trouble batsmen this much before,he is looking unplayable ATM.Even in couple of T20 World Cups or last WC he wasnt looking this menacing.

Sid Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 if you prepare yourself for fast yorker he bowls a slow yorker or bouncer. Looking very difficult to face him ATM coz of his variations,I will be surprised now if :mi: doesnt win this season .:D

One Gayle innings, One Yusuf Pahtan blitz can floor the opposition easily. Yusuf managed to make 100 in 37 balls against Mumbai without even facing much of Malinga and Zaheer.

Some teams are supercharged in knockout stages. Some teams plainly flounder by dropping catches, getting run outs etc etc.

So they might do better. :cantstop:. Seriously.. fielding has to be razor sharp. Also Malinga is in better form. More importantly Munaf bowls better than how Zak bowled last year. Everything is going well for MI.

vijay810 Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Pray that Pollard does not get a big knock in SF or Final..........cos if he does then 250 is reality team score....And Blizzrd and Symonds are good..........Sachin ,rayudu and Rohit can be very consistent. Pray the top 4 play like they are doing and they will get 180 and thats far more chaseable than 250. Dont forget Bhajji can hit few if ever needed which looks unlikely..With Munaf bowling well and Malinga and Bhaji bowling even better its a strong attack. Fielding has been topclass.

vvvslaxman Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Similar one good hurricane from Pollard or Symonds along with consistency of Sachin + Rayudu + Rohit can be opposition nightmare But you get only one 20 overs.. Gayle for 20 overs > pretty much anyone for 20 overs from Mumbai. It is not like they bat 100 overs.
