diga Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Gayle's effectiveness will drastically reduce now that RCB has played 6 of their home games and embark on a 56-match away run. Its actually 6 match away run...2 wins out of 6 should give them a shot at the playoffs ps: the 2 away matches they lost were also narrow affairs.. lets see how Kohli responds to the constant hopping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalebi_bhai Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 RCB has a huge gaping hole......their middle and lower order batsmen......the problem for the opposition so far has been that in almost all their matches....one of the heavyweights has played a disciplined, match winning knock for RCB.....this is the difference from last season...also, the bowlers have done an extremely commendable job so far, conceding more than 160 on only two occassions.....out of 8 innings.....the long away run will be a very big test...

philcric Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 If Pujara and M Agarwal come back to fitness .. Pujara (unproven but may do alright batting with Gayle) Gayle * Kohli M Agarwal + DeVilliers S Tiwary R Rampaul V Kumar M Kartik / S Mohammad Muralitharan Unadkat / RPSingh No all rounders, the top 6 have to get the job done. Foreign players, just pick 2 best batsmen and 2 best bowlers instead of average all rounders like Christian, Henriques, McDonald. Bowling looks good, batting also looks good but not deep. ShiTiwary stays for lack of options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philcric Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Arun Karthink is fantastic as a WK but him batting at #6 doesn't inspire confidence. Not that S Tiwary inspires confidence either, but $1.6 million man is probably a better batsman than Arun Karthik. :giggle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelig Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 You can't have Rampaul coming in at #6 in a game against the mafioso or bambis. It might work against the lower tier teams, but not against the elite :headshake: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudradhar Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Gayle storm destroys Pune Warriors India on Tuesday evening. Record after record was obliterated as the Royal Challengers Bangalore beat Pune by 130 runs, powered by an unbelievable 175* (one seventy five) from Chris Gayle at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Sachin=GOD Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Rival IPL team to get one over of Chris Gayle batting Mumbai. After what Chris Gayle did to Pune in Bangalore earlier today, BCCI has decided to make IPL an evenly contested tournament and give level playing field to the rival team by giving one over of batting by Gayle. “The rival team will bat only for 19 overs and the last over – we are calling it the Gayle Equalizer – will be given to Chris Gayle so that some respect and sense is retained in the final scorecard,” IPL chief Rajiv Shukla announced. Sources confirm that the Gayle Equalizer has been introduced so that IPL doesn’t come under the scanner of the Competition Commission of India as Gayle’s batting makes a mockery of a healthy competition. “There was a lurking danger that IPL could be dragged to the courts for monopolistic and restrictive trade policies that arise due to Gayle’s batting. IPL didn’t want another government body running for its neck after receiving income tax notices,” a BCCI source revealed. However, experts believe that all this is a smokescreen and BCCI has introduced this new feature for making IPL more attractive and lucrative. “All this talk of restrictive and monopolistic trade practice is bullshit,” a corporate affairs expert claimed, “Chris Gayle’s acts could be either termed ‘Act of Sir Jadeja Sachin God’ or ‘Force Majeure’ such as GayleStorm gale storms, for which no legal liability can be imposed. “People will die to see an extra over of Gayle’s batting and this will only push up IPL’s TV ratings,” the expert further claimed, “And they will surely earn extra by selling sponsorship rights for the Gayle Equalizer; electronics company GE will be approached I guess.” Experts predict that this is just the beginning and IPL may introduce a mandatory over of Gayle’s batting in each and every IPL match, so that the West Indian batsman’s full potential is realized before he turns 40 or decides to retire.

Square Drive Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Please get rid of this hack Tiwary and play any youngster like vijay zol. Also they should replace dilshan with Henriques. But I think Dilshan lifts the spirit of the team. That's why Kholi picks him even when he's out of form :dontknow: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeautifulGame Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Tough times ahead for RCB :hmmm: Still should have enough ammunition to get into play offs without trouble Should drop Dilshan and play Agarwal/Pujara (if fit) else Mukund.And replace Syed with Murali imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
