Vanarp22 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 DD is full of talented players like Warner, Sehwag, etc. Why are they failing? BTW I'm done with the "no threads" deal.
cricketman Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Honestly they have a great team. Best opening combo, astute captain, easily best pace attack by far. No idea why it is not going for them. Batting has failed. Selection is weird. Sehwag looks disinterested. Warner doesn't really look like he wants to be there either. Probably has been in India too long for his liking.
Cricketics Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Bhai araam naal.. It's just bad patch I guess. It's 2020 and they haen't just been able to get that run. I am sure thehy will win 4-5 in a row soon.
Prakat Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Wasn't OP not supposed to open a thread for six months in return for 50 millz from posters? Wtf.
India-KXIP fan Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Because it's obviously all fixed. Otherwise how could I be doing chit in Super selector and betting /thread
adi B Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 those players are out of form hacks and are a liability to the team,even mahela has lost his touch,he was good in ipl till 2 seasons back
Gunner Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Sh!tty captaincy from Mahila and sheer bad luck. DD haven't been playing to their strength, which is their formidable pace attack. You don't prepare slow low pitches and expect Morkel and Yadav to run through sides. Another major reason is the missing Kevin Peterson whom they're missing a lot, especially after trading Ross Taylor.
Switchblade Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Fire non-performing stars, says angry Gavaskar after DD crash to CSK http://sports.ndtv.com/cricket/news/206517-ipl-6-fire-non-performing-stars-says-angry-gavaskar-after-dd-crash-to-csk Delhi Daredevil's sixth Indian Premier League defeat in-a-row and the manner in which the team's top batsmen have capitulated consistently has angered Sunil Gavaskar and Dean Jones. Delhi crashed to a humiliating 86-run defeat against Chennai Super Kings at Feroz Shah Kotla on Thursday night after their top batsmen once again failed to put up a fight, chasing 170 for a win. Delhi's chase fizzled out even before the powerplay overs ended. With the backbone of the batting -- David Warner (1), Mahela Jayawardene (6) and Virender Sehwag (17) -- back in the pavilion and with the scoreboard reading 39 for 4 in 5.1 overs, the game was as good as over. While Warner and Sehwag fell to reckless strokes, Jayawardene went from lucky to unlucky in a matter of two deliveries. Gavaskar and Jones have questioned the commitment of the top players and even wants teams to review the payment structure in the cash-rich tournament. "Not one player from the Delhi Daredevils side played with the intention of winning. Some players seemed content with taking home their match fees without performances to justify the sums," said an angry Gavaskar after Thursday night's match. "You need to guarantee some percentage of the fee to the players, irrespective of whether they play well or not," said Jones. The former Aussie star batsman added: "But it wouldn't be a bad idea to add performance-based incentive clauses in the players' contracts." Delhi were bundled out for their lowest-ever IPL total of 83. The Daredevils "should learn a thing or two" from the passion and commitment shown by the likes of Mahendra Singh Dhoni (44 off 23 balls) and Mike Hussey (65 off 50 deliveries). "Delhi are in a sorry plight," added Farokh Engineer. That begs the question - will Delhi improve if a mid-season transfer window was introduced in the IPL? "It is an interesting idea," said Jones. "But I don't think it's fair on the teams who have planned hard for a two-month season. So… no, a mid-season transfer window would not maintain a level playing field in the IPL." But harsh decisions need to be made for some of the underperforming teams. "Some players from Delhi and some other teams need to be shown the exit door," says Gavaskar. "If big-named players, either Indian or foreign, are not performing, the franchises need to get rid of them." "We are heading towards performance-based contracts in the IPL. With the fresh auction next season, I am sure the franchises will expect a certain standard of performance for the money they are shelling out," added Jones. "The problem with T20 leagues is that it lacks the honour and recognition of a Test cap. It is run as a business model, and therefore the players need to be held accountable for performance," concluded Gavaskar. Engineer, Gavaskar and Jones feel come IPL 7, player-salary equations will change. From a money-spinner, the league will evolve in to a competition based on performance packages and an increased accountability for players and support staff alike.
Number Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Answer is simple .. because they lost all 6 games.
CSK Fan Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Something is missing. Oh yes, you forgot to add a poll
Moncy Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 I think it's because there are not a lot of talented local cricketers in Delhi since most of the delhi male population are too busy raping.
AGHORI Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 State goverment should declare gang rape as their state sport
