zen Posted May 29, 2016 Posted May 29, 2016 (edited) IMO, best bowling unit was DD but SRH was close too esp when Nehra was playing .... But good to see a relatively good bowling side win! Edited May 29, 2016 by rett tweaker, New guy and express bowling 3
Zero_Unit Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 on paper SHR is probably the best bowling attacking team in this IPL. Hell even a player like boult sat down most of the ipl games. Imagine all 4 star bowlers were actually bowling in one match (Kumar, Nehra, Fiz, Boult). sscomp32, beetle and tweaker 3
Malcolm Merlyn Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 By a margin of 8 runs After scoring 208 runs. sandeep and tweaker 2

DD squad has a better all round attack (pace + spin) on paper - Zak, Shami, Morris, Mishra and Tahir. tweaker 1

Had it been some other larger ground, it could have been larger margin!!! CurtisKem 1

Texan Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 Just underpins the importance of having good death bowlers. CurtisKem, nevada, sscomp32 and 1 other 4
f.b.m Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 KKR had a very strong bowling attack in the seasons that they won the IPL. Narine at full chucking force, Hogg, Morkel, Russel, Shakib on slow, turning tracks were excellent.
vvvslaxman Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 If I am right they have best economy in first 6 overs and death overs. Apart from Warner their bowling saved the day for them in crunch situations. nikred, tweaker and beetle 3

From last 6 overs 50+ odd was needed. But of that 4 overs were to be bowled by Bhuvi and Fizz. And being certain of a win by end of 14 overs means a cake walk in t20 terms tweaker 1

Problem was RCB didn't have reliable batting after abdv and kohli.
nevada Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 I think Watto got too demoralized after conceding all those runs and flopped in batting too. If he had stayed till the end RCB would have won. That being said, a good bowling attack creates relentless pressure making opposition implode and that is what we witnessed during RCB's batting. Kudos to their bowlers. They earned the win. tweaker 1
Ranjha Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 SRH winning eliminator, qualifier 2 and then finals. No one can say they weren't worthy winners...well done boys from Hyderbad. tweaker and beetle 2
beetle Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 No Boult this year.. Is nehra fit? What about Fizz?
