How come Virat's 100 gets him a MOM award eventhough his team lost, while Smith's 100 doesn't get him MOM.

[WC2011INDIA]

Give me a valid reason why Smith didn't deserve it,but Virat. If anything, Smith's 100 was better than Virat's.

Is there no limit on the length of the title.

F off if you cannot answer the question.

Agree with the title.

This IPL is the launch platform for Virat...

[New guy]

You do realise that its not the same person who picks MoM for every match and opinions might vary?

This guy asking the important questions

There was no single impactful innings from GL the other day.. DK was the top scorer 50 off 39...

 

In this match, Smith and BMac tore apart the opposition for longer, and Smith's 63 off 37 seemed more impactful..

 

PS : Just to draw a parallel.. 1996 WC Ind vs SL.. Sachin scored 137, but Jayasuriya got the MoM for his 79 just for the impact innings... 

 

There was no impact innings in the RCB vs GL match IMO

There is obvious Bias here + India's age old idolizing cricketers and turning them into Gods saga continues. 

[Ankit_sharma03]

Going back to the Days where these firangs use to show dissent and get away with nothing and we use to get fines and many more biasness that was part of cricket.

Well ill take such biasness any day. 

N true there is huge diff as smith made 63 0ff 37 n took game away, where as with karthik innnings the platform was already set 

[Debutant]

So who else other than Virat deserved the MOM in that match ?? 

[Debutant]

Next highest score was 50 of 39 balls by DK and nobody got more than 1 wicket

[PBN]

Who decides the man of match award this time around.  I know in some of the previous editions, commentators had a say.

[Texan]

Varies from match to match depending on other performers from the winning team. You canot generalise this way. 

[TheWall]

Pathetic thread. Admin pls lock it....

[msplash9]

Stupid thread. Did n't you see Morris become the MOM even after the loss ?
 

[Zelig]

Rohit Sharma got the MoM over Pollard the other day.
