* Jason Roy took break from the cricket due to personal reason so he pulled out his name from this season. Gujrat bought him on base price. No update on back-up overseas player.
* Apart from Roy, few Australian player won't able to take part at start, may be week or so because of Pak vs Aus bilateral series (ODI+T-20). Although Cummins, Hazelwood, Warner are free after test series and not participating in LOI against Pakistan, but they are stuck due to national contract which is valid reason i suppose. For some it does sounds weird clause - Contracted player can't take part in league until bilateral series ends-


New Team setup after Mega auction. Before the auction every team had a option of retaining only 3-4 players (including 1 foreign player) .

Team like Lucknow, Delhi and Punjab failed to fill their quota of 8 foreign players, few also failed to get Indian players and purse is pretty much empty so not sure if they are allowed to pick anyone later. Picking Indian uncapped players won't be tough but buying foreign player could be tough due to budget.

@JSRAW,
Please PM me around a week before the tournament starts. Right now superbru has not listed the tournament yet that's why I can not create the pool there yet. Usually they do it few days before a tournament starts. So hopefully we will see it soon.

I would suggest everyone to start sending their fees and request JS to make a list of the members who already sent their payment. I saw in other thread you have suggested 0.0007 BTC which looks good to me. Still I am keeping an eye on this thread let me know what you all decide to pay for the fees.

You're welcome to join as well and one humble request please edit your post. Quoting OP without editing is not good practice in general.

Yeah, i checked it and i thought that my account had some sort of restrictions, even created new account just to check lol

With price going up and down i think 0.0007 BTC would be in between 25-30 bucks so should be fine for everyone. Hope no more dip....

I just have got a green signal from one casino but the amount isn’t much high. They are interested to get their name in the title and a banner at the top. What you guys think would be the best deal for both the casino and for the pool itself? I'm not sharing the amount they proposed me. Let me know if any amount has been fixed. I will pass the message to them.
@JSRAW, if there's any fix rate for the below part of place, please let me know through PM.

1. Name on the title
2. A banner at the beginning of the thread.

Great job with the ANN presentation @JSRAW. Many people are unaware of all the recent IPL team changes which is why the manner in which you presented all the teams would clear any confusion.

I'll send my BTC to the pool address soon and am excited for the upcoming season which is starting early this year. Also, the decision to allow non-participants to discuss in the pool thread was a good one.

But that would increase the unnecessary spam on this thread. There are a few cricket threads here & some guys are posting their some shits sometimes. I guess the same will be seen with this thread as well. I would strongly vote against allowing non-participants to post here. Nevertheless, it's up to the thread creator.

Here you go- 649792f4a3464c221a54f19b83a76ceb714cab41cf8d427026cc6a26b42a51f9

Bhai, i guess you're mixing discussion thread (The one created by royse) with this one. Only participants can take part in this thread, although this particular thread is open for everyone until 26th march, not after that. Reason is unnecessary spam like RaptraX mentioned.

Well, will you mind telling who are those guys who post shits in the cricket threads? I am eager to know who are they ?

By the way, for the IPL discussion, we can use this thread Bitcointalk IPL Prediction Pool & Discussion (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5114470.0).


Only participants can take part in this thread, although this particular thread is open for everyone until 26th march, not after that.

Wouldn't it have been better if you could have opened the self-moderated thread for this purpose?

Understandable. I can see why several people would be unhappy with this decision due to various reasons. This particular thread is exclusive to participants only as @JSRAW pointed out above.

Sounds like rhetorical question to me.

I won't go into much details or naming posters but i would say i see plenty of posts doing commentary about scorecard in the cricketing thread, just plain commentary and poof, hardly see any engagement. Fair amount of posters do add good posts or do analysis but their posts get lost most of the time.

This is self-moderated thread.

12 days to go - there seem not much people interested in IPL and I have seen the list too - are Pakistani player banned to play IPL. I have not seen any Indian player in PSL. How do people react to IPL, is there a hype and which is favourite team of IPL? Please tell me more about the event. I will keep following the forum for more update. Bytheway - I like Dhoni and Kohli which team they will be playing for?

I suppose most of em must be thinking ah we have 2 more week so let's sleep on it little bit more.

For some reason most of us Indians think that world would end if we reach before time or on time.  ;D

I'll pm them again in next couple of days.

Hey JSRAW,
I may be late to send the fee. I'm not at home. I have shifted to another town for a while and sadly, I didn’t bring my wallet with me. Imagine sending the 0.0007 BTC from Binance/Kucoin with a fee of 0.0005 BTC. If I get late, I will ask someone to refill for me. I will join for sure mate. If I get late even, please if possible send me the pool link.

It's because they do not see many users. If they would see good numbers like they have in football events then we would get better offer. I just hope that some day we will have a community where there will be many users who will wait for this kind of events to join.

More interest means more attraction for the sponsors. We have only few days left :-(

Makes sense, but sponsors will invest even if there aren't many participants sometimes. For example, I still remember one of the IPL pools(Think it was the first one) where a sponsor decided to pitch in even though there were just around 10-15 participants.

I believe @Sashi something won that particular prediction pool.

Around 18-ish participants, that year we had at least 2-3 giveaway slots for the participants also.

After witnessing low interest in the IPL/WC pools, despite many active posters in the cricketing thread. I'm starting to think that we're not doing our job correctly, otherwise i don't see any other reason why we're not able to convince more punters. We have already tried low entry fees tactics in previous pools.

@Royse777 If you have self mode rights on T-20 thread then may be quick poll would be good option to know what everyone thinks. Like regarding fees, let's say if we keep entry fees as low as $10 bucks. How many would be interested to join the party.

This is a good idea. I feel that most punters aren't joining because they don't gamble regularly and just participate in discussions so that they can continue earning regularly from their respective signature campaigns.

Another reason could be due to the unpredictable nature of IPL which makes it tough to predict the outcomes and the margins accurately.

🔥 BTC365.com 🔥 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5355326.0) wants to sponsor the pool. They want to put $500 in the pot and in return they are looking at main sponsorship. What would you guys say? With enough consensus I will drop them the btc address. I think this is a good deal for the pool.

Well those who already paid 0.0007 BTC which is relatively higher than $10, what would you justify them? If we finalize this sponsorship with BTC365.com then the pot is getting extra $500 this should motivate people to join the party. $30ish to win few hundred is a very good deal besides what matter most is the fun we get in every match.

I think the reason is the "low amount of prize pot".

That sounds cool, Royse. Thank you for bringing up the sponsorship.
Now that our pool is bigger one, I guess we don't anymore need to consider about lowering the fee as some people have already opt-in with previous fee. However, if everyone comes into a conclusion of lowering the fee, I don't have a problem either. I would pool the full 0.0007 BTC into the pool regardless of whatever the fee is.

Guys, good new! At least I think LOL
🔥 BTC365.com 🔥 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5355326.0) wants to sponsor the pool. They want to put $500 in the pot and in return they are looking at main sponsorship. What would you guys say? With enough consensus I will drop them the btc address. I think this is a good deal for the pool.
That's a bloody good news bhai. Tell them yes, i'm sure no one would mind this at all and this would be win-win for every party (Sponsor and participants).

Guys tagging you, check this wonderful news. At least give your participation confirmation here in this thread and please don't wait for the deadline.

@pakhitheboss
@Vaskiy

@teosanru


@Royse777 If you have self mode rights on T-20 thread then may be quick poll would be good option to know what everyone thinks. Like regarding fees, let's say if we keep entry fees as low as $10 bucks. How many would be interested to join the party.
Well those who already paid 0.0007 BTC which is relatively higher than $10, what would you justify them? If we finalize this sponsorship with BTC365.com then the pot is getting extra $500 this should motivate people to join the party. $30ish to win few hundred is a very good deal besides what matter most is the fun we get in every match.
I actually meant that we should try some sort of poll for overall strategy just to attract more participants. Fee structure was just an example

But yeah its not fair if someone paying extra bucks.

You will find the btc address in there. However here it is again:

Also provide me a banner which will have at least 1600 px width. The height could be any px. You can give GIF banner if you want too. Please tell the designer to give his best to highlight the brand and attractive features.

Once they make the payment then they are officially our sponsor. When I will have the banner I will drop it here for you to update the topic. Also please you will need to rename the topic adding their brand.

I would suggest something: 🔥 BTC365.com 🔥 Bitcointalk IPL 2022 Prediction Pool. If the sponsor wants to add/edit anything then I will let you know.

This is epic news Royse. Didn't expect a sponsor which is why this is a welcome surprise. This could possibly attract more participants before IPL 2022 begins.

Did you reach all of them through PM or just trying to mention them with a hope that they all are using a mention bot; forum doesn’t have any mention notification. It would be better if you invite them through a PM.

BTW, if I'm correct, Royse have a channel on telegram for this which I guess most of us have subscribed. Royse can announce this in his channel as well.

All of them are gambling-onboard users,  I've seen JSRAW working overtime and spreading out the pool name to all of the cricket-related discussion threads. so they are aware enough of the IPL pool, sending pm is kinda unnecessary. Those who are not interested do not need to request so much.
With just 2 days to go before IPL starts, It would have been a lot of fun if there were 10 participants in the pool. :(

Out of so many sports negotiators, only 10 people are not available to join the pool, holy shit! :-\

Even though I am not participating but it will be good for the pool participants as now the first prize will be somewhere around 250+ dollars  ;)

Notes:
1. Sponsor wants the banner at the top, that's the promise I gave them.
2. We do not need the other banner you had
3. Please make sure to remove countdown area and the link once the first match starts. The following codes:

Bingo. There are many posters who don't even gamble and still act like gambling experts in this forum. It's easy to identify them if you check their posts thoroughly.

It's close to 400 bucks at current rates which is way higher than 250 bucks. Also, I don't think BTC will reach 100 grand anytime soon since it hasn't even managed to breach $50K in recent times.

Edit

Okay ladies show is about to start. KKR won the toss and will bowl first.

CSK vs KKR

- 2 new skipper Jaddu and Shryas
- Weird feeling to look at current CSK opening combination. I was getting used to Faf in yellow.
- Surprisingly KKR banking on Ajinkya Rahane for opening slot.
- There is no Moeen for CSK atm (Visa issue, then quarantine i suppose)

Ruthraj Gaikwad with convoy opens for Chennai Super Kings. Umesh Yadav opening for Kolkata Knight Riders.
Very first ball is a no ball and given a free hit. Umesh keeps the swing and Gaikwad is getting closer to lbw. Chennai Super Kings have lost the first wicket of Gaikwad at the extra bounce ball from Umesh Yadav. The beginning itself looks like a struggle for Chennai Super Kings.

Most of the people have picked KKR, only 3 including me have picked CSK. I haven’t even checked who is playing or not lol. CSK at the moment struggling with batting which is quite common though. Let's see who get the first win.

Updated

Yeah in our pool majority went with the KKR but overall, superbru pools are favoring CSK. Its 76% for CSk vs 24% for KKR, both were finalist in the last season but yeah CSK is in tough spot right now because of slow pitch and bad running between the wickets, anyway result doesn't matter as long as Dhoni hit 2-3 sixes, just for the spectators and not joining Tuk Tuk academy.


This local guy Sheldon Jackson looks good with the glove.

Edit

Regarding bold part. I think i'm reading prediction all wrong?

The only highlight of CSK's innings was Dhoni's inning to be honest, otherwise 131 in 20 overs is a very bad score, the openers played furiously but were quite reckless in losing wickets, i know it's too early to say this but why does the CSK this year looks like the CSK from 2020 and not the CSK from 2021. It's too early to say anything on it. KKR on the other hand are playing marvelously, RCB must be seeing Umesh Yadav and crying in a corner.    ;D

Was it an easy win or comfortable?
There are 9 ball left while they have won the match with 6 wickets. Which one will be applicable? Sometimes, I really get confused with their calculation. Can anyone brief a little? Don’t know what am I missing  ::)
Nevertheless, it was a great win by KKR. Dhoni had his style after quite long time. I didn’t expect Dhoni to play such a good match but sadly it doesn’t make much difference.
Congrats who got the winning point tonight.

Hahaha, I'm a little confused too. My prediction was that Kolkata would win the match in a comfortable way. But is it an easy win or a comfortable win?
Dhoni's performance surprised me. I did not expect such a great innings. Even at the age of 40, he has maintained his form. Though the top order players of the team are Berth, Dhoni has fulfilled his responsibilities properly.

Was it an easy win or comfortable?
There are 9 ball left while they have won the match with 6 wickets. Which one will be applicable? Sometimes, I really get confused with their calculation. Can anyone brief a little? Don’t know what am I missing  ::)
Nevertheless, it was a great win by KKR. Dhoni had his style after quite long time. I didn’t expect Dhoni to play such a good match but sadly it doesn’t make much difference.
Congrats who got the winning point tonight.
The condition is "or", which means if even one of the conditions is satisfied it becomes the Narrower win, This will be counted as a comfortable win, if there would have been just 1 wicket remaining then this would have counted as a narrow win even though 9 balls were left, which means the condition which leads to narrower result is counted first, this makes sense as well. Just always keep it this way, Always see the condition which gets the narrower result and that would always be the result.

Was confused about this earlier too, but decided to just wait and observed that it was a comfortable win which implies that majority of the members in the pool including me started off with 2 points each.

Surprising? Why? He recovered his form last season and helped his team win several matches which is why this particular performance doesn't surprise me at all. What surprised me was Jadeja's average performance.

Another suggestion is to lock this Bitcointalk IPL Prediction Pool & Discussion (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5114470.0) thread for the time being and all the discussions of IPL should be done on this thread so it will always remain on top of the gambling board in the next two months giving maximum exposure to the sponsor.

So this thread is for the "Participants Only" or anyone can discuss and write here  ???
Please clarify as i don't want to break the rules. Thank You

Don't remember Thala producing any good knock in last 2 season? Last night knock was excellent but only for nostalgia moment, which i don't mind. I think Jadeja was bit nervous due to captaincy pressure, its first time he's captaining any side in his cricketing career.  

Ladies we have double header today.

- DC vs MI
- PBKS vs RCB

Well boys two epic encounters today, With fresh squads teams do look a bit unfamiliar at first but if you look closely new names are giving teams an element of surprise as well. Punjab Kings are epic this season, they have easily managed to chase 205 total with almost all the players given their performance team was never dependent upon just one person. This they have done without Bairstow in their team, I feel when Bairstow is back which foreign player will they keep out of the XI? Even Rabada will join them in the next match, on paper PBKS looks like the most balanced team to me apart from KKR, CSK & Lucknow on paper. But also PBKS have almost all the hitters in their side.

Hey guys it was a lucky day for me. Locked the winning of Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings in a comfortable manner. The outcome of both the matches were the same as my prediction. Both were tough match, and the end turned all of the sudden from a narrow win towards a comfortable win. With the Punjab match once after the wicket of Livingstone I thought it is the day of Royal Challengers Bangalore. But things happened different with the performance of Odean Smith.

It is a great prediction, it is impossible to predict even if you are wagging live in the final 5 overs that Delhi Capitals could win the match nor Punjab Kings would chase a total of 205 runs. Shardul Thakur and Axar Patel changed the match upside down for Delhi Capitals and it was a great knock by Axar Patel and this is the first time i am watching Odean Smith bat and Punjab Kings have a match winner at hands which could change many matches in this tournament.

This element of surprise might be temporary because its just a start but i won't mind this scenario at all. It would do tons of good for everyone.

It was good to see SL's batter doing good in the IPL but i think Punjab will replace Bhanuka Rajapaksa with Bairstow because i also feel that he got lucky as his match-up was with his own team mate Hasaranga (another srilankan), he was pumped up against his fellow team mate as he already knew all of his tricks. This might change against other bowlers, hope i'm wrong but that's a only i can think of atm. Another possible reason would be that Punjab already have gun Indian batters and its hard to leave Caribbean Odien Smith. Windies hitters are hard to replace, damn they are beast and on different level.

Every team should follow this bat deep strategy where No-6,7,8 are contributing with the bat, that's what we saw last night.

Shardul Thakur
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.

Hey guys it was a lucky day for me.
Congrats on your wins. I didn't put any bets yet but i'll get into the business soon.

Was surprised by both wins too. I gave up on DC after Shaw got out and never expected them to win comfortably against MI. The biggest issue with MI this season is their bowlers who screwed up in their first game.

I thought RCB were in a good place after posting 200+ runs, but Punjab made it look easy thanks to some big hitting towards the end. West Indians are rocking in both tests and the IPL currently.

2 new teams competing against each other. Bet on Gujarat in their match against Lucknow primarily because of their bowlers(Rashid, Joseph etc).

Nothing is certain but Death, Taxes and MI losing opening match. They hardly win their first match, hard to understand why they always lose their opening game. Some hardcore Mumbai's fan might say that they are keeping their decade old tradition alive.  ;D

I think dew also came into play in RCB vs PUN match or may be they are panuti team. Latter sounds reasonable argument.

This is the second time KL Rahul got Tiwatia'ed.

This match up was between 1 dull captain vs first time captain and i think dew came to rescue Pandya. Loving the fact that every match is going down to the wire, good sign overall. Sri Lankan players are also showing their quality but more happy for the 2 young Indian debutants.

PS: I think BCCI should keep an close eye on Rahul the captain (no issue with his batting) and Pandya the Allrounder performance.

This surprised me actually. When I chose Gujarat, I observed that most people chose Lucknow, but they changed their decisions later on.

Tiwatia was on fire and with him Miller too. GT impressed me.
Actually, credit should primarily go to Shami who destroyed the Lucknow top order. If he had more overs, I don't think Lucknow could have posted such a big total. Also, it was funny seeing Shami remove his former captain(Rahul) for a duck.

PS: I think BCCI should keep an close eye on Rahul the captain (no issue with his batting) and Pandya the Allrounder performance.
KL Rahul sucks as a captain which he has proven again and again though he is an amazing batsman. Personally, I would choose Shreyas Iyer as the future captain of India across all or some of the formats since I like his leadership skills.

BCCI genuinely think that he can lead the national team in a long run, similarly fair amount of share holders in IPL thinks the same that's why he was offered shit load amount of money from the Lucknow. So may be there is some leader quality in him which we as fan can't see. From fan's perspective he comes off as dull leader and has no idea whatsoever how to handle pressure or in most case how to rotate bowlers or make clear strategy. Let's see..

I did not understand how Williamson was out?
Keeper bumped it on his hand, ball bumped on the ground before the 1st sleep was able to hold the ball.

The decision came from the third umpire.

Yeah, it looked dodgy from front on camera angle and was not clear if it was out. There was definitely bump but slip fielder's fingers also looked underneath the ball. Umpire could have check with side camera too but surprisingly he was in rush and didn't even bother to look from different angle.

I also didn't see on field umpire giving soft single before referring to the third umpire.

RR are off to a flying start. Their team is the best team among all in my opinion and I would be stunned if they don't make it to the playoffs. They have great batsmen, all-rounders and bowlers currently.

On the other hand, SRH keep performing like crap as usual. I have no idea why they decided to retain below average players like Sharma, Samad etc(References probably).

Coming to the match between RCB and KKR, I bet on RCB who disappointed me in their first match, but I feel that they will make a strong comeback in this one even though KKR looks strong too.

I saw some new unknown names in Superbru, so decided to check the main thread to know who they are and this caught my eye.

Quote
Distribution of the prize
Top 3 wins
1st - 50% of prize pool
2nd - 30% of prize pool
3rd - 20% of prize pool

More than one winner in the same category share the prize equally.

I think this rule is not needed and it's contradictory IMO.

Why contradictory? Let's say if 2 of them take 1st position, as per this rule both share the 50% prize ie. 25% each which is less than the 2nd positions prize.
Instead, it should have been like 2 person share 50%+30% ie. 40% for both and the 3rd person takes 20%. If it's 3 or more took the 1st place, then the entire prize pool is split among them. Or if 2 of then take the second spot, they both get 25% each.

Why not needed? Because, Superbru itself offers a tie breaker policy.
Quote
Tie breaking
In the event of points ties on a leaderboard, position is allocated on the basis of higher WP total, then the higher MP total, then lower TDM. TDM is Total Distance from Margin: the sum of the differences between a player's margin predictions and the actual margins. Example: Where Thrashing = 4, Easy = 3, Comfortable = 2, Narrow = 1: if you picked Easy (3) and the result was Narrow (1), your TDM for that match would be 3 - 1 = 2. Lower is better.

So I think we don't need the rule mentioned in the main thread and  we could follow the tie breaker policy of Superbru.
I am not sure if this was already discussed in the thread, as I didn't go through it all

For final tally we actually follow superbru tie breaker rules, If my memory serves me well then i guess we faced this situation at least 1 time, where 2 participants had same points, not sure if it was for 1st or other positions.

My understanding of this rule is that, we've 3 dedicated % of pool amount for 3 different positions (1st,2nd,3rd) similar to lotto prize/winners.

If more than 1 person sharing a same position with exact numbers, which is highly unlikely due to superbru system (Win, margin, TDM) so they should share the prize money which is allotted to that particular position. It's seems fair practice in regard to other winners also but please let me know what you guys think?

I don't think it's fair. Let's take the current scenario as an example.

https://i.ibb.co/ncmZxDY/Screenshot-2022-03-30-14-17-08-52.jpg

As per my proposal only 4 of them should be declared winners. Timon takes 50%. Royse, kpk & Sword splits the remaining 50% ie.16.67%.
But what you say is that there are 6 winners, Timon takes 50%. Royse, kpk & sword take 10% each for coming 2nd. Raptar & Teo also take 10% for coming 3rd. If anyone of the 3 (Royse,kpk,sword) somehow moved to 3rd spot and push those at the 3rd spot to fourth. Then he would get 20% for 3rd position and the other 2 get 15% each sharing the 30% for the 2nd position. Do they seem fair to you?

In this example raptor and teosanru standing at 5th position, not 3rd (If superbru ranking not counting them as 3rd then who are we to make any decisions on their ranking?) so in this scenario this seems okay "Royse, kpk & Sword splits the remaining 50% ie.16.67%."

Having said that overall i would say that this sample size is too small imo and on micro level TDM seals the final deal, which is missing atm. I know it's just an example but still..

We're talking about more than 1 participants to get exact WB, MP and TDM after 70+ matches, not saying its not possible but odds are way too low.

It doesn't mean that i don't agree with you. You have a valid point, let's keep this discussing going and let others to jump in. I'm sure we'll reach to consensus soon.

What a match so far!
Such a low scoring match would turn into such a fighting match, who would have thought? KKR is now in short of at least 1 bowler. They are trying with Venkatesh Iyer which seems very risky in this time/situation.
I stopped watching the match and had completed some of my works. But now when I have checked the score, I was really surprised.

You are from India, right? can't get pass you anymore, I'm jealous, man. :P
yes, balling line of Knight Riders are very strong that's why RCB could not get such an advantage by batting. Enjoyed a very high voltage game.

by the way, I am very skeptical about tomorrow's LSG vs CSK match, a very unpredictable one.

Thank you. There are 3 more users with 7 points. I'm not the only one, mate.
Yeah, I'm from India but some says I'm not LOL. That’s something else.
I thought KKR will make it finally but they were lacking of a bowler at the end. Russel was having a poor bowling yesterday & they didn’t have the 6th bowler come in and have a good spell. In the 2nd last over, Harshal Patel hit 2 four. That was the turning for RCB.
I guess CSK will win at the end. But, I may pick LSG as well depending on the toss.

What a match so far!
Such a low scoring match would turn into such a fighting match, who would have thought? KKR is now in short of at least 1 bowler. They are trying with Venkatesh Iyer which seems very risky in this time/situation.
I stopped watching the match and had completed some of my works. But now when I have checked the score, I was really surprised.
These low scoring fixtures are amazing and more fun to watch. After KKR's batting i thought this is going to be dead rubber but it ended up being thriller.

Surprisingly this is the same venue where we saw 400+ Runs (RCB vs PUN).

Venkatesh Iyer seemed risky at death over but he wasn't bowling bad tho, KKR could have get Dinesh Kartik wicket but they missed out very simple run out chance.

So I think we don't need the rule mentioned in the main thread and  we could follow the tie breaker policy of Superbru.
I am not sure if this was already discussed in the thread, as I didn't go through it all
It was already discussed long ago and as far as I remember we all agreed to superbru tie breaker policy.  If we do not want to use superbru tie break then for two top point earners we can go like,
1st - 50% of prize pool
2nd - 30% of prize pool

We have 80% of prize pool. Now we split it between two.

Obviously the final decision should come from JSRAW.

Lucknow vs Chennai up next. Am expecting Lucknow to win this one since Chennai doesn't seem strong anymore thanks to the captaincy change along with some bad player changes. They desperately need players like Ali in their squad.

On the other hand, Lucknow seems to be performing well even though they lost against Gujarat. However, I hate their uniform which is my least favorite among all IPL uniforms so far.

Lol okay so i guess i'm not the only one who hate their jersey, even logo is third class. Billion dollar team but can't hire creative designer.

I have no love for Lucknow/KL but today CSK playing with only 3 overseas players, so i went with the Lucknow.

Uthappa looking different batter nowadays. Actually so far fair amount of local talent doing decent job.

KL also thinks that SR is overrated in the T-20 lol


Edit

Score is big but dew is there and it's batting paradise so advantage is with Lucknow if batting clicks.

My first bet of this season is on KL's team  ;D

Even Dube ji scored runs so i'm optimistic tonight.  ;D




Edit

Hooda gone so no hope  :-\ Lucknow need miracle...




Edit

Haha holy fuck!!

Lewis was excellent but damn this kid Badoni is amazing, not easy to bat on when you need 40 off 16 balls.

Chennai have got a good batting line-up in this match. Other than Gaikwad who lost his wicket on runout have scored runs building up the score reach 210 runs. The bowling isn't good as expected and the bowling order too is really worse. 19th over to Shivam Dubey isn't a needed one.
On the other hand, Lucknow seems to be performing well even though they lost against Gujarat. However, I hate their uniform which is my least favorite among all IPL uniforms so far.
Lucknow is playing good. While watching the match my girl too said about the dress colour which isn't looking good. Maybe soon we can expect a change as more people seems to be feeling the same.

Punjab up against Kolkata. I bet on Kolkata this time around since they won their first match comfortably and took the second match down to the wire. On the other hand, Punjab played really well in their first game against RCB.

They might probably underperform in this match since they aren't the most consistent team out there. Also, they need better bowlers in my opinion.

I'm loving the Sri Lankan's contribution in this edition. Last guy i remember is Malinga but now at least 3 guys Rajapakse-Hasaranga-Chameera making fair amount of noise in Indian circuit.

My money was on Punjab due to gut feeling despite knowing that dew is playing big part in second inning and now looking at the scorecard it does looks like that Punjab's fans lost the bet and points too.

Before the last match only I complimented the Punjab's batting unit because of the great strength that it has and we saw a gigantic collapse of that batting unit in this match, if it wouldn't have been for Rabada in the end, this match wouldn't have been called even a fight, but later for KKR it was just Russel who actually turned the match after fall of 4 wickets, infact he was the one who took Rabada's wicket as well, no doubt why Russel was retained by KKR I can't recall any other player who has converted losing matches into winning matches more number of times than he has.

Bet on Rajasthan who performed admirably against a strong Mumbai side. Kishan and Tilak looked like they would seal the deal for Mumbai at one point, but their luck finally ran out thanks to Boult and Ashwin.

Mumbai need better bowlers and I have no idea why Sky wasn't playing since I just found out that he was declared fit for this particular game.

I had a bet on MI to win. Sadly, they didn’t. Despit Bumrah having 3 wickets for 17 run only from 4 overs, RR scored a big one. MI doesn’t have better bowling option in bench as well. That's sad. MI this year doesn’t look like the classic team we used to see though last year, they didn’t perform well.
I really feel bad for Ishan Kishan. He had a great 2 matches so far but due to poor team performance, they got no attention.

I went with Rajasthan because of the weak batting line up of Mumbai and the age of the players when chasing big totals, in the second match i am going with Gujarat Titans because of the bowling lineup they have and if they can put a decent score on the board, they will win the match comfortably.

Hopefully they will score above 170 runs and if that is the case Delhi Capitals will find it difficult to chase.

Mumbai is slow starter but yeah without SKY their batting line up looking shaky. He should return in the squad soon by replacing Anmolpreet Singh (he's wasting opportunities).

They are actually short of 1 overseas bowlers but they already knew this when they got the Archer (unavailable for this season due to injury).

I think MI and CSK are kinda building their squads for future seasons.

I missed out on everything today.

Edit

Oh i guess not everything. I got the points with default pick.  ;D

I think SKY will be back in the next match, I was even surprised not to see him in this match as well because I read Zaheer khan saying that he is fit to play but wasn't in the team. Maybe SKY can solve the middle order problems for Mumbai Indians but the bigger problem is the bowling attack, there is no one to bowl along side Bumrah in the death, on one end you saw today Bumrah protecting runs while on the other end there was huge leakage of runs. Thhampi also isn't in his best touch this season. I think it's better to try maybe Unadkat or Meridith instead of Mills or Thhampi in the next match. MI has to improve the bowling performance first.

I am not sure about this SKY, my request is to put their name as i am not familiar with local talents. In the case of bowlers, Mumbai had a great opening pair in Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult during their earlier seasons and i was surprised to see that they did not pick him this season because they were a great opening pair and they troubled all the batsman and the main reason for their success in recent seasons.

Had a good day tonight and hopefully my luck continues. Gujarat Titans played like i thought it would go and even during live betting at a moment in time the odds were above 3 for Gujarat Titans to win and i gladly placed the bet knowing a wicket of Pant would change the match upside down and that is what happened in the match  :D. Hopefully will see more matches like this in the coming days.

Sky is short for Suryakumar Yadav and it became a popular nickname very quickly which is why many of us refer to him in that way.

Those odds were great value. I bet on Gujarat too, but not at such high odds and they didn't disappoint me. Their bowlers saved them since 170+ was a below par score against a team like DC.

Apart from SKY.. Vadapav also need to score some runs tho, he's averaging like mid 20's in last 3-4 IPL.

They also have Murugan Ashwin as bowler, he's good bowler too and will play most of the games. I think they're missing Bumrah-Boult kind of mojo, this was deadly combination so i guess new setup will take some time.  For allrounder category, BBL's (Aussie) players don't give me much confidence.

They could try Unadkat instead of Thampi. Both are okay bowler but Thampi is better with the bat and Unadkat (He now believes that he could bat too)  provides left arm seam option so he would get a game or two anyway.

Punjab is scoring at a good pace but they lost wickets at regular intervals. Now they have Odean Smith in the crease and he can hit the ball a long way and if he bats throughout the innings he will score a total beyond Chennai's reach.

Sky is short for Suryakumar Yadav and it became a popular nickname very quickly which is why many of us refer to him in that way.
Ok, got it. He is having fitness issues and he needs to be in the team for Mumbai to have the depth in batting.

Those odds were great value. I bet on Gujarat too, but not at such high odds and they didn't disappoint me. Their bowlers saved them since 170+ was a below par score against a team like DC.
When Pant was in the crease the odds changed drastically and if they had a solid batsman after that wicket, i would not dare to place a bet but Pant was the solid player and i felt one more wicket and they will loose the match and hence took the chance when the odds makers offered a good bet :D.

After four consecutive wrong predictions my prediction have turned to be right. Myself a supporter of Chennai Super Kings believed it isn't the match of CSK. Few of the reasons that striked me are the winning luck, lack of bowling and the fielding mistakes of the previous match. In the previous match it was the match of Chennai, but something happened opposite due to the catches dropped by Chennai. In today's match too myself expected the same, fortunately Chennai didn't batted first.

Lack of bowling is one big reason CSK are losing matches, if you see there was not even a single bowler in the first innings who was able to bowl very nicely, Initial wickets also were more of lucky wickets not some great deliveries, pace department looks too young only Jordan is there and he doesn't have a great history on Indian wickets. Even batting also does contain big names but their suns have really set now, Ruturaj & Faf Du Plessis were the only reason why CSKs batting looked flawless the last season and they could win the title last season, this time Faf has left the squad and Ruturaj's form looks nowhere near the last year mark, people would say that Dhoni's removal from captaincy could also be a reason but trust me it isn't, because Dhoni still has a lot of say on the field from what it looks on screen. I am sure he must be having a lot of say in the dressing room as well with Jadeja, his oldest chap as the captain.

Congrats on picking Punjab Kings as i did not anticipate them to perform the way they did and Chennai Super Kings was on a two match loosing streak and i was expecting them to change that but it was yet another disappointing performance from Chennai Super Kings and with this loss i do not understand with which team they can compete in this tournament.

Great prediction. I didn't expect Punjab to thrash Chennai especially when Ali is back in their line-up. Dube and Dhoni were the only decent performers among their batsmen while the rest performed like crap.

Honestly, I feel that the captaincy change was the wrong call since the pressure is clearly getting to Jadeja who hasn't been performing well with both bat and ball since then.

MSD should have continued as the captain since this is most probably his final season which could have painted a different picture for CSK so far in my opinion. Currently, both CSK and MI look weak overall.

Lol Dhoni was decent? Players should get credit when they perform well but when they are shit then let's call them out, there is nothing wrong with that.

At one time his score was 10 off 20 balls and he was keep putting pressure on Dube ji. When you're chasing the 14-15 rpo then 23 runs off 28 balls is ridiculous performance.

No big difference on points tables tho.   

In first round toss played a big part, team batting second successfully chased down big total but so far in 2nd round situation is completely opposite.

3 good teams at rock bottom on point table and still searching for their first win. Even RCB is ahead of them lol

Reminder every team has to play 14 games each.

Lucknow and Gujarat have good players in the team and i think they have the right balance, i under estimated Punjab kings and went with Chennai Super Kings when picking the team in the competition but once the match started, i picked Punjab to win and Chennai Super Kings was a huge disappointment and i am not expecting any changes in their performance this season.

I feel that 23 off 28 balls isn't ridiculous at all when the rest of the team got out for single digits. MSD always like batting deep which is why him wasting balls initially wasn't surprising and this is why I called it a decent performance.

I wouldn't worry too much. Anything can happen in both the IPL and these prediction pools. For example, I was in the bottom of last year's pool initially and ended up on top towards the end.

i picked Punjab to win and Chennai Super Kings was a huge disappointment and i am not expecting any changes in their performance this season.
Don't underestimate CSK and MI. They have returned from the dead on multiple occasions to surprise so many people thanks to their 'Never Give Up' mentality.

That's why India keep failing at T-20 WC. In T-20 less than 100 SR is considered sin and that too when you're batting at lower middle order

For anchor role SR should be around 120-130 but teams can't afford 2-3 anchor players in the same, at least not at number 7. If you want to win or compete in T-20 format then you need 140 or above SR kind of batters.

Between Rajasthan and Bangalore, my choice today was Bangalore. I know Rajasthan has shown outstanding performance in the first two matches. They are playing great in both bowling and batting. Yet I relied on Bangalore's players. In particular, I bet in favor of Bangalore only for Faf du Plessis and Kohli.

Rajasthan set a target of 170 runs in 20 overs. Good enough collection considering the pitch condition. However, their collection in the last 2 overs was 42 runs, it surprised me. Bangalore's bowlers needed to bowl more carefully.

RCB collected 40 runs without losing any wicket in 5 overs. 130 runs are needed from 90 balls to win. The match is still completely under the control of RCB. I hope I will win my bet.

Boss-DK has become destroyer of the bowlers.

Rajasthan was in comfortable position and it looked like they win the match. I was confident of their win and stopped watching the match  :-\ but then came an unknown Shahbaz Ahmed and DK, they turned the table for the RCB. DK saab is in new avatar after Nidahas trophy and become dangerous finisher in T-20.

Valid point, but it's very difficult to maintain such a high strike-rate when majority of the team got out quickly which leads to a high pressure situation. Anyway, let's just agree to disagree.

I felt the same. RR looked like they would easily win at one point and I was surprised to see Ahmed and freaking DK(Who underperformed in recent seasons) help seal the deal pretty easily. Am on a 3 loss streak currently.

Also, the Superbru points table does seem different currently. There are just a couple of points difference between the first and last position. Exciting!

I don't remember his last season numbers but in recent 3 matches his SR is above 200, not easy task at all, clearly he's enjoying his batting atm.

Mumbai playing against Kolkata. They would like to open their account. SKY should be available for selection, although bowling department looks more damaged right now.

Pat cummins is also available for KKR but Boult-Yadav duo is doing fairly good job for them and they can't leave Narine and Russell. Sam Billing is WK-Bat, so i guess Patty is going to sit out today?

Boult doesn't play for KKR so I guess you wanted to say Tim Southee. Southee is having a wonderful IPL so far, he has already got 5 wickets in a couple of matches but when you got someone like Pat Cummins, you have to make the difficult decisions. KKR's batting lineup is strong but you can't rely on six batsmen in a run-chase. Narine hasn't shown his batting instinct for quite a time now so seeing a bigger picture, it is better to have someone like Cummins down the order than Southee.

Btw, first match in Pune, can we say dew won't be a dominant factor tonight? Really wasn't a good feel to see factors like weather influencing matches to this extent so far this season.

Yeah Southee, my bad.

Cummins is not reliable batter tho but yeah definitely better than Southee. They went with Cummins anyway (its long tournament so rotating seamers is not bad option), although thick boy Umesh Yadav is doing the job for the KKR.

Outfield looking okay so far, no big sign of dew right now but let's see what happens after 1 hour.

Myself picked Kolkata Knight Riders to win the match in an easy manner. Finally with the massive performance of of Cummins the match ended very shortly by the 16th over with 24 balls left and 4 wickets remaining. However the match was mentioned a comfortable win for Kolkata Knight Riders, but in some calculation it is an easy win in my opinion.

Don't underestimate CSK and MI. They have returned from the dead on multiple occasions to surprise so many people thanks to their 'Never Give Up' mentality.
I am not taking their past performance in the last seasons, i am picking the teams as per their present performance and hence i was able to pile up wins in the prediction competition even though i missed margin points in the RCB match even though i placed a bet on RCB to win as i expected the match to go to the last over but later came to know it was still not a narrow win and even though i did not pick any teams in the first week and still luckily i am able to reach third position and hopefully it will continue like that  :D.

MI lately isn’t anymore the MI they were. They need to reshape the team. They need to have some more good bowlers. I really didn’t expect that.
I would pick MI and had to lost a point. Thanks to my IRL works; was busy and couldn’t pick, hence, got KKR in default pick LOL.

Yup. I didn't watch the match and just checked the scoreboard and was happy to see KKR win against MI, but what surprised me the most was Cummins scoring 56 in just 15 balls which blew me away.

He equalled KL Rahul's record for the fastest fifty in the IPL while the fastest 50 overall was scored by Yuvraj, Gayle etc in just 12 freaking balls. Cummins is back in style!

In T-20, match up of Bat vs Ball become very important and at time i felt that it would have been better from Mumbai's perspective if Pat cummins was facing any spinner as he's not that good against spin. But again it happened so fast that nothing made sense and no one had time to react lol

This is a complete list of fastest IPL 50s

Don't get confused by amount of runs, just focus on Balls for 50s. Chris Gayle made 17 ball 50 against Pune Warriors (PWI). Yuvraj has a record in T-20 international, not in IPL i suppose.

It should be an easy 180+ but at the end, they couldn’t make it. Warner and Powell played 22 balls but scored 7 in total. This is in no way acceptable regardless of what Shaw played. Middle order for was failed to score as well.
Nevertheless, I will be looking for LSG to win with a narrow margin, I should be happy LOL. I have bet for them as well.

I don't think DC is going to win this match today because The target is only 150 and LSG Has already scored 86 runs in 12 overs, they have 9 wickets in hand. unless DC is able to pick up a few quick wickets, there is no way they are going to be able to win this match.

You misunderstood. I was talking about the fastest 50s across all tournaments(Not just IPL). 3 players scored 50 runs in just 12 balls(Yuvraj, Gayle and Zazai). I miss watching Gayle storms in the IPL.

This IPL seems to be the edition for chasers. 210 run isn't a safe score nor 189 is. It seems Gujrat will easily chase the target tonight. It so far has been favoring the chasers. I'm in bad luck season LOL. Have placed a bet for Punjab to win but it doesn't seem they are likely to as Gujrat needs more 100 runs from 64 balls with 9 wickets remaining. I guess GT will chase it comfortably.

I remember how he screwed Cottrell by banging five sixes in a single over and Odean Smith got screwed this time around. Punjab should avoid him as much as possible since he keeps messing up their plans again and again.

IPL has always been unpredictable which is one of the primary reasons why it's so popular around the world. I bet on Gujarat, but never expected them to win by such a close margin towards the end. Tewatia saved them at the end.

Bro, I think he is the best finisher after MS Dhoni that India has ever got ;D.

I think in every Indian T20 lineup he should not be dropped at any cost even if the Indian team needs to play without players that are in form.

Because India should know that if Rahul Tewatia is in the squad they are surely winning that match. Hope people understand sarcasm, ;D

Yeah! For some weird reason Tewatia sahab doesn't like Punjab+Windies fast bowler combination. He finished Cottrell's career but it looks like Punjab's management backing Odien Smith for a long run and it was nice to see that Skipper Mayank also backed him in Public.

So CSK is not winning again?  ;D

If not for the successful innings by Suryakumar Yadav, Mumbai Indians would not even score 130 runs and there was a time when the odds for over 121.5 runs were over 1.45 and since Suryakumar Yadav were still in the crease i knew Mumbai Indians would reach over 140 runs but 151 runs is a great total. I picked Mumbai to win and they had a great start but then lost the flow.

MI and CSK struggling to win a single match which is really weird as i thought they are the strongest teams before the start of the tournament and usually i do not watch all the matches but since i joined, i try to watch almost all the matches and what i understood is that MI is struggling with the bat and they do not have the bowlers to restrict the opponents like they used to do in the past.

The same with CSK, they do not having an attacking bowler and hence they are struggling as well.

IMO Main issue is in bowling department.

Bumrah looks off color because batsmen are careful against him and prefer to see him off without any risk, specially at powerplay (no respect at death tho). Basil Tampi is performing okay but they are not in sync and so far failed to compliment each other. Unadkat was playing his first game and he looked okay last night.

Murugan is good but spinner can only bowl in middle overs, also he's not taking wicket at all. He's not leaking runs but he's wicket taking bowler so he's failing there. Overseas bowlers in squad seems useless atm, that's why they are not even filling 4 overseas quota in the playing XI. This would change next year tho, if Archer is fit.

Despite last night batting collapse their batting lineup is not that bad. Ishan Kishan, SKY are excellent. New kid Tilak Varma is in amazing touch and already looking very experienced batter. Dewald Brewis is another wonder kid in MI and play some sexy cover drives, backfoot punch and pull against seam bowler but he's struggling against spin. He's young so he'll learn.

Rohit at powerplay and Pollard at death overs should contribute more with the bat, so far their performance is bit disappointing specially Skipper Rohit looks like dud and dead weight at opening slot.

Feels great to win both bets against CSK and MI yesterday. Honestly, it wasn't really difficult to predict the RCB vs MI result since RCB keep getting stronger while MI keep performing like crap for obvious reasons(Bowling etc).

I found it slightly tougher to predict the winner of the CSK vs SRH match since SRH is unpredictable while CSK also has been performing like crap, but SRH returned to form thankfully and I won my bet.

I don't think CSK and MI will win this season or even reach the playoffs which I feel is a good thing since I want to see a new winner this time around.

With the terrible start Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians had it would be a surprise if they reach the final four. The surprise of the season was the two new teams, Gujarat Titans as they picked really good players and are a balanced team and Lucknow Super Giants and are playing brilliantly.

Even in today's match Lucknow Super Giants needs 69 runs in 30 balls and i am not sure about their strategy as they are holding back Marcus Stoinis and promoting sloggers .

Edit: The strategy of holding Marcus Stoinis failed, they should have sent them earlier.

Lucknow was to win the match. Somehow Rajasthan Royals made it add points. The strategy failed just because Jason Holder wasn't able to give the right contribution. He was sent at that position to lower the run rate, but he wasn't able to perform and scored just 8 runs out of 14 balls. We can say this made it difficult at the end of the match.

In the past after losing four matches Chennai have reached the top 4 team list, but it was during the year 2010. Even that time it didn't loss in a series, but this time it has turned to be very narrow to reach the top list.

I expected RR to win comfortably towards the end since they removed 8 wickets, but Stoinis almost screwed them thanks to a late blitz. Most of these returning Australian players are on fire in recent matches.

Coming to the match between SRH and GT, I feel that most people will bet on Gujarat who are in a much better state when compared to SRH currently. Let's see what happens.

Rajasthan's bowling looking quite strong this season and they are packed with gun batters too. After so many embarrassing outing, this season they got very balanced squad.

International Aussie are doing good, not sure if its true with the BBL's star.

SRH batting lineup seems toothless atm. I don't know why i changed my pick tonight.  ???

Epic decision. Observed that no one acquired the margin point. SRH destroyed GT very easily which was unexpected since Gujarat were on a winning streak and were playing well as a unit together.

SRH team members like Sharma, Willy, Pooran, Tripathi, Natarajan, Sundar etc are back in form which bodes well for the future of their team.

It was more like a brain fade moment lol. I guess its hard to get margin points, even 1 ball or single run changing everything.

If we rule out dew and toss then this season is heading toward unpredictable phase now. Strong team are struggling and the teams we considered weak in the past are leading the point table.

SRH did win the match but their batting still look shaky to me. I think their bowlers need to do heavy lifting in upcoming fixture, similar to last night.

Imagine you did not get a single point in 4 matches. I am feeling lucky today that I was able to get two points LOL.
Whats with these big franchises? Mumbai Indians,  Chenni super kings and Sunrise Hyderabad even with RCB? It seems I keep backing them and they keep losing their matches. I have not followed the tournament closely but I think this season is not for these big clubs.

RCB doing a lot better than MI, CSK and SRH tho.

MI, CSK both missing their prize bowlers Archer and Deepak Chahar respectively. Also they failed to find their replacement, which is hurting them.

Similar thing happened with the RCB yesterday. Their gun bowler Harshal Patel was unavailable and left the bio-bubble because of unfortunate event in his family (death of his sister).

CSK screwed me in a big way. I never expected them to post such a huge target after a long loss streak against a well-set team like RCB. Kohli and some newcomer wasted way too many balls initially which made it difficult for players down the order.

Dube and Karthik are in the forms of their lives currently which is good for RCB. They lack good bowlers though.

Am not expecting MI to bounce back like CSK though against Punjab later, but anything can happen since this is the IPL after all. Let's see what happens.

People had very high hope from the Dube when he was making runs in the domestic. Most of em were comparing him with the likes of Yuvraj because of his clean hitting, which is true but he didn't do any justice to himself when he got the chance in the national team. Having said that i'm loving his new avatar and i really hope that he keep performing like that and hopefully in near future he gets another chance to serve the national team.

Few months back DK was doing commentary and look at him now haha.

I want to puke on this Mumbai team now.

This was very much chasable target and pitch was excellent to bat on. At one time they were in very comfortable position but damn 2 run outs at crucial time ruined everything. Tikal looks excellent batter but boy oh boy! this is second run out for him in this season, game awareness is there but he need to work on running between the wickets.

They are still working on their combination and it's clear that they didn't found any solutions yet. Can you imagine Unadkat batting at no 7, he knows how to swing bat but he's not no7. They have proper 4 tailenders.

Won both the match point and margin point thanks to Odean Smith's final over which was surprisingly great. Pollard is playing like crap these days which is why his run out wasn't a major one while Tilak's run out was a major one for sure.

Sky was their final hope, but he couldn't help them get across the line. Felt great to see Punjab win comfortably in the end after so many twists and turns in the entire match.

You don't need to rub it on our face tho  :P

Pollard and Rohit both are looking crap these days. I've mentioned last week that Rohit also averaging like in mid 20's, like in last 3-4 seasons but he had gun bowlers back then and inform Pollard-Pandya at middle order. Now Pandya is gone, Pollard lost his form and bowling line-up in shambles. They are not even using 4 overseas quota, it tells you lot about their messed up strategy in recent Auction.

May be they are banking on young guns for future. Tilak-Brevis-Sky-Kishan-Ashwin as a core team along with Bumrah-Archer.

Pandya was on fire with the bat today, not supporting Gujrat but his form is good sign for Indian team. He's also looking as far as his bowling is concern so its a bonus.

Butler also putting up good show here. He and Pandya both are competing for Orange cap tonight. Funny to see Ashwin at number 3, batting with Butler lol. Hope they don't run out each other.  ;D ;D

Lol Ashwin smashing six against Rashid.

RR playing 3D chess?

I was stunned to see GT post 190+ since I expected them to score something close to 175+. Pandya was amazing towards the end. Buttler played well too while Samson getting run out was a game-changing moment.

RR has already lost 6 wickets and they probably will lose by a decent margin at this point. Looks like my prediction was wrong this time around.

RR team is very good no doubt but it's batting looks overdependent on Jos Buttler, today Jos couldn't bat till the end so the team didn't even manage to reach close to the final Target, in bowling also Kuldeep isn't able to do a lot of things which bring overdependency on Chahal only, GT on the other hands has multiple in form players Pandya, Gill and Miller, and this Abhinav Manohar guy too is really good in batting, GT looks a strong contender for the playoffs this time. MI must be crying in the corner for letting Pandya go.

I keep thinking that they will come back and do better to win their matches but almost all the time they are disappointing. This season is becoming a disaster for me.

It is a disaster for majority as none of the favorites are winning the matches, Mumbai Indian and Chennai Super Kings sucks big time and at least CSK won one match and Mumbai Indians are yet to register a win after 5 matches, all the tags they had as slow starter, i thought they will win the third match and yet to win a single match. Pollard should be replaced and bring in someone exciting and they need some good bowlers as well. same with CSK.

Yeah all 3 franchise.

Mumbai - Already mentioned couple of times. Rohit-Pollard both are 34 yo and both are in terrible form and looking dead weight atm but bowling is their main concern IMO. IDK if they have any replacement for Pollard and they won't replace him anyway. They need to play 4 overseas players first in the playing XI.

CSK- They're also missing Deepak chahar in bowling department and surprisingly they don't have promising backup for him.

SRH - In last season fight between management and David Warner really messed up their franchise performance and they are keeping the tradition alive. Having said that i do love their bowling attack.

You are wrong here. SRH management was a mess and their team suffered because of it in the previous seasons, but they have bounced back pretty well in this season so far even though I still don't like their management.

They defeated KKR very easily which was surprising since I expected them to win comfortably. Their batsmen and bowlers are working well together currently.

Exactly SRH has Altogether turned the tables from what they started in this season, Rahul Tripathi batted so well and even Markram is in great touch, SRH made an easy win with more than 2 overs to spare. This IPl has really become too interesting now, technically upto 1/3rd stage, if you leave MI and CSK rest all the teams are around each other and have won and lost against each other so no team has been able to standout completely so far.

Yeah they did won 3 consecutive matches but their bowling is doing main job for them, where they are successfully restricting everyone at around 150-170 mark, barring 1 match. Not to mention in last 3 matches they won, they were batting second and chasing subpar total. Batting clicking at the same time is bonus for sure.

The way both Iyers struggled tonight. I think SRH bowlers are going to spoil some Indian batters plans for upcoming T-20 WC.

SRH bowlers have done the best during the initial overs, but things went out of their hands during the end overs. If I'm not wrong KKR managed to score 36 runs in the last 12 balls. When that scoring was happening I thought this runs were going to change the match. Finally the batting order of SRH performed well to win the match in an easy manner.

After picking the first two wickets i thought Kolkata Knight Riders had a chance to pick further wickets and put pressure back on to Sunrisers Hyderabad but that never happened and they ran away with the match.

Mumbai's bowling attack is so bad that even KL Rahul is also taking them for a ride and smashing em all around the ground and he's the guy who thinks strike rate is overrated and like to play the anchor role all the time.

Weird thing here is that 2 players didn't vote which is why they were assigned the default pick which turned out to be Lucknow. How? Majority selected Mumbai. Superbru is broken.

Everyone expected Mumbai Indians to win this match considering they dominated the IPL for majority of the time and now they failed to win a match after playing 6 matches and no one would predict that kind of result and if anyone could predict that they could make a lot of money :D.

KL Rahul played so well today, and how ironic it is that when his girlfriend and her father came to see his match, he got out on golden duck  ;D and today made a classic century in the very next match. Anyways MI worries are just not coming to an end, I understand their bowling is weak but 6 consecutive losses is actually a very bad record to have by your side. Two big problems I feel are lack of good lower order and obviously lack of good death bowling alongside Bumrah, both of these things are key deciders in any T20 match you got to have atleast one out of two, after Pollard there is no one who can bat with him till the target which creates unnecessary burden on one side. It's obviously too difficult now for MI to qualify into the playoffs.

Looking at the way Mumbai Indians is playing this year, it seems that the team has a lot of weaknesses. Gamblers have made a lot of money because of Mumbai Indian's best performance in the last few years. But they haven't won a single match this year, and they've lost six, which is disappointing. Mumbai Indians will do such a bad performance, maybe no gambler thought of it. So predicting is the next thought. Now let's see if MI can do anything good in the rest of these games.

Bhai, MI's performance is now taking toll on my pocket lol

The way this IPL turning out. I'm starting to think that what would be national team structure for the upcoming T-20 WC, only 5-6 months left and they are not playing many T20I. It's too early but still.

Rohit, Kohli, Pant, Shami, Jaddu are going down with their form Deepak Chahar was promising prospect but he got injured for good.   

Shaw at opening slot performing well but no one would dare to replace Rohit. Same with Kohli, he's in shambles and fair amount of young guys performing well at this position.

Pant not giving much confidence but we do have 2 wicket keeper batter as a replacement KL and DK. DK in particular is in excellent form.

Good news is Kuldeep-Chahal-Avesh-Shardul- Harshal patel-Nattu-Yadav ji and other uncapped young guys are doing quite well and so far out bowling Shami-Bumrah duo

Am loving SRH these days. They are winning every game comfortably which is pretty impressive since they don't really have a powerful team overall. Abhishek is finally playing well while Tripathi, Markram and Bhuvi impressed me.

This team reminds me of the one led by Warner several years back where they won the season which is why I feel that they are one of the top contenders for the trophy this season.

Also, Gujarat keeps delivering twist after twist. I never expected them to get so close to the target after 2/2. Rashid and Miller are turning up the heat. Exciting!

Edit: Unbelievable. Gujarat managed well without Pandya. Miller and Rashid saved them while Jordan proved yet again why he is easily one of the worst bowlers in Cricket.

Rashid Khan is batting as if he is possessed and clearing the boundary with ease, he does have a strong forearm and wrist with the ease with which he is clearing the boundary, this is an expectational performance from Rashid Khan in the IPL with his bat but i have seen him bat in other franchise .

Oh Rashid Khan lost his wicket. Gujarat Titans just needs 13 runs in 7 balls and with David Miller still in the crease i think they can win this match.

Edit:
Gujarat Titans won the match with one ball left.

Jordan is a worst bowler for Chennai, because if David Miller have scored 23 runs in the 18th over then it is not his mistake. Rashid Khan too a good batsman, but an able bowler have got the ability to restrict from scoring. Scoring two continuous sixes followed by a four and a six is really bad for Chris Jordan as a bowler. Once again Chennai have lost its match due to poor bowling.

Even though Miller was the main reason why GT clinched this match, but you have to say it was Rashid Khan in Jordan's over which actually changed the course of the match completely, I doubt that even if Miller would have been in place of Khan would he have been able to make 25 runs in that over? Rashid Khan was unbelievable and that also with the burden of captaincy on his shoulder, GT is looking like a marvelous team with each and every player in form, even without Pandya in the middle order they chased such a big target. I think Rashid Khan can try doing Sunil Narine stuff now if he can bat so well occasionally, can add some quick runs to the total initially and save your better batsmen to finish things off while chasing a total.

From 2 for 2 to 4 for 48 runs i did not expect Gujarat Titans to pull out this victory and Miller played an incredible innings and i do agree that after Rahul Tewatia lost his wicket i thought the match is over as Miller cannot do all the scoring and Rashid Khan was struggling a bit in the start but then he changed gears and started picking apart Chris Jordan who is a really experienced bowler and that changed the match for Gujarat Titans.

This match looks like high scoring game. Buttler butchering KKR atm, this pitch seems batting heaven. Should be good chase for the KKR if dew comes into play.

I'm taking short break from the betting. Got burned recently, more like a free fall haha.

Poor Chakaravarthy looking so ordinary this season.

Yup. RR batted really well to score 216 and I never expected KKR to come so close after Iyer got out. Yadav scared me at the end, but McCoy sealed it at the end somehow. Sheldon got out cheaply due to pressure.

So many bowlers are stepping up this season and it's become pretty damn clear that many bowlers can bat just as well as top class batsmen in the IPL.

Haha thick boi Yadav. He's genuine slogger and it's exciting when he clicks, although most of the times he's hit or miss case but saw his power hitting couple of times in test format too so yeah he's scary if he's connecting well.

Chase was going excellent but Chahal did messed up KKR's plans. I'm loving the uncapped local kids and new blood, i was sceptical at start but almost everyone putting up good show for the spectators.

Didn't expect Lucknow to lose so comfortably against RCB who relied heavily on Faf in this match. Hazlewood was brilliant taking crucial wickets here and there which messed up Lucknow's chase.

Why do they keep giving so many chances to Pandey? Also, RCB have been inconsistent so far in this season which is why I don't see them lifting the cup this year.

Pandey ji looks finished although he didn't play all the game.

Is it fair to say that RCB looking different unit this season by changing skipper? Faf + DK with the bat and 3"H" Hazelwood + Hasaranga + Harshal with the ball. Every new recruit in RCB's jersey turning out to be a match winner or contributing in a big way.

First IPL trophy?

Punjab is in tough spot tonight. So far in this season they played very attacking cricket but tonight they are struggling badly and might not even able to play their 20 overs quota, which is depressing.

What's happening with the Kuldeep? New franchise and somehow he's high on confidence and getting back his form.

Kulcha duo is in top 3.

Expected Punjab to win against DC which turned out to be a bad decision. I never expected DC to thrash them in this manner. Their batsmen and bowlers were pathetic and DC is rising through the table.

I don't remember the last team I saw a team thrash another team in such a formidable manner in the IPL since most of the recent games were close ones. Entertaining stuff!

Felt like a short burst of adrenaline rush.
.
But if i'm being honest then this kind of mismatch is not good at all, one sided matches are boring in the long run. I hope it's just a temporary phase for the Punjab, like off day at workplace.

I loved the Warner-Shaw batting at the powerplay but at the same i was wishing for more, would have been epic if they were chasing 200+ score.

Looks like many punter losing money because of MI-CSK.

These 2 titans looks past their prime for now and looking ridiculously mismatched in comparison to other franchise but they are kinda producing nice contest tonight, although poor fielding from the CSK played a big part, still good to see tight contest between these minnows  ;D poor cricket

Also, MSD saves the day yet again. The crowd completely lost it and I don't blame them. This man single-handedly saved the game for CSK. Best finisher in modern Cricket!

I half heartedly put my money on Mumbai in this match because I thought it's really impossible to lose 7 matches consecutively for any team be it the worst team of the tournament but here I am now repenting on my choice :D , if Dhoni wouldn't have hit that 4 i would have got 2 points cause I chose narrow win for Mumbai.

I don't want to break hearts of Dhoni Fans but he is way way past his prime and not at all a finisher of "Modern Cricket" I'd rather call someone like Russel or Devillers best finishers of Modern cricket, 2-3 matches that CSK lost in this season were primarily because of slow batting towards finishing the chase, Dhoni did play really well in this match, and obviously a winning knock after so long his fans have all the rights to go crazy.

I stopped betting on MI and CSK after 5th loss and was neutral last night.

I guess DC and RCB had a 6 consecutive losses record. Mumbai took them over and become first team in the history of IPL losing 7 games on trot after winning the trophy.

You won't break many hearts because most of them including me would disagree with your reasoning. I agree that he is way past his prime, but he can still finish games regardless which is a fact that cannot be refuted.

On average, most sports sites rate MSD as the best finisher followed by ABD. Russell is very, very inconsistent which is why he isn't one of the best finishers.

This IPL is my biggest loses on cricket bets just because I was expecting MI will come back but sadly they didn’t. I don't want to mention the amount here but it's quite big amount in terms of my regular gambling habits. They just ruined a lot of gamblers. Now, I'm officially out too from any of the MI matches.

What a last over that was, Obviously that was a NO BALL, and it's okay as an umpire to miss that, but keeping that ego of not referring to the third umpire for this is absolute stupidity on the part of Umpire, we saw in the day before yesterday's game as well that the Umpires did go upstairs when they were unable to determine about the height, and when you have the technology you should definitely use it. Even though Rishab Pant was wrong, but that's a very normal reaction from anyone. I remember Dhoni stepped on the field in one such situation a few years back, if someone so calm & Experienced like him can do this, you can't expect Rishab Pant to stay cool.

Haha, All these are Blogs that rely on SEO & fan Following for their bread and butter, why would they ever dare to fight with MSD Fanbase by keeping him on number 2? Also, It's not that any of these blogs have mentioned any statistics or anything, Anyways it's just about opinions, I have personally seen ABD & Russell overturning more matches any day than Dhoni in totality at least if you talk about modern cricket which I count post-2010.

There is no debate from anyone watching the game of Cricket about who is the best finisher the world has seen and that would be Mahendra Singh Dhoni with the number of games he won for his teams and no one in history could match his winning percentage and to do that even past his prime is just a reminder for anyone who has forgotten him :D.

Rovman Powell hit three sixes in the last over and that delay changed the momentum of the match, Obed McCoy composed himself and then sent him good line and length balls, if the match would have continued without the fight and the drama where nothing can be done against the decision of the umpires, all they did was delay and give advantage to the opposition and Rovman Powell could not connect a single ball after that.

This is where the experience plays the role. Umpires have made the decision and they'll never take an stand just because the player request for a no ball. If the umpire does so, then he'll be termed wrong. Finally the DC players itself collapsed the momentum and paved way for the win. There is no need for such an argument and calling the batsmen out of the pitch.

That was gully cricket moment, only thing missing was  Rishabh Pant and Butler's fist fighting on boundary line. ;D

I felt that It was 50-50 call. After those 3 consecutive 6s Powell was in god mode and McCoy was in under pressure. At one point it looked like holy moly Powell is going to get 6 6s but this little drama broke his rhythm and DC lost the momentum.

It did look like a no-ball from all angles to be fair. I didn't understand why the umpires didn't refer to the 3rd umpire which was bizarre. Also, Pant embarassed himself by asking his batsmen to return.

Fault lies on both sides. Watson schooling Pant and Chahal playing with Kuldeep was hilarious though.

Natarajan, Suchith, Abhishek and Jansen played really well. SRH and GT are top contenders for the trophy this year in my opinion.

ICC can't make more changes, because in the past the umpires used to make decisions to change the matches. Now things weren't the same and the decisions weren't intentional. I expected RCB to make a big win, but things happened completely against them. The first three predictions of the ongoing round have gone wrong.

That's where T-20 league should do bit of innovation. There are fair amount of useless rules in ICC rule book and not sending waist-high-up-no-ball-check to third umpire is one of em. Ironically nowadays 3rd umpires check every ball for foot-no-ball but not allowed to check waist no ball.

I think there is a need of few more DRS type solution for Wides-No ball etc without umpire's call.


Meanwhile Kohli's form is hitting new low.

Lord Thakur did this.  ;D

Haha, JSRAW isn't the only one betting on MI, I am one of them too, I felt that no team can lose consecutively 8 matches, I actually placed the bets based on the odds, I thought the odds of a team losing 8th consecutive match is pretty less so it's really an intelligent choice to bet on that very team. But MI is really nowhere a match this time to other teams, they are not even giving a tough competition to other teams.

I am too one of the most active ones in this thread  ;D But yes we definitely need more members to participate to increase engagement here.

Haha, JSRAW isn't the only one betting on MI, I am one of them too, I felt that no team can lose consecutively 8 matches, I actually placed the bets based on the odds, I thought the odds of a team losing 8th consecutive match is pretty less so it's really an intelligent choice to bet on that very team. But MI is really nowhere a match this time to other teams, they are not even giving a tough competition to other teams.
I picked Mumbai Indians to win the match tonight but still they are not able to win the match and i wont be surprised if they do not win a single match in this tournament. I was checking last years scoreboard and they are not a team who scores big runs but used to trouble the opposition by picking up wickets and they used to defend small totals and may be that is missing this year.

Lol. 2 consistent things this season are MI continue to lose and @JSRAW continues betting on them regardless of their losses. I have no idea why some people still have faith in this broken team who look like they might break the 11 losses in a row record.

Lol. I am one of the most active members in this thread. Looks like MI is screwing with your mind.
I didn't want you to feel alone, hence mentioned your name as well  ;D

Arey i thought, now is the time they would come back after 7 losses but these poor guys can't catch a break.

LOL did you guys notice I am at top 3 now?
How it's even possible!
You made a big jump recently so.

Guys is there any reason that we had no double header yesterday? I was expecting 2 matches back to back

Even I was supporting Mumbai Indians win the match. This is all because they've lost the chance of getting into playoff. Believing atleast now they'll show some tremendous performance to make a win.

Myself trying to be active from today's match. As fourth round have reached the order of the participants on the leader board have changed completely. Slowly I stepped up, and suddenly with the last four match wrong prediction once again back to my position.

Problem here is that they lack amazing players to deliver such tremendous performances. The only consistent player I noticed was Tilak in their entire squad.

Slowly I stepped up, and suddenly with the last four match wrong prediction once again back to my position.
Don't worry too much about rankings. There are plenty of matches left and rankings change all the time.You could end up winning if most of your predictions from now onwards are correct in my opinion.

CSK were looking good but 17th, 18th and 19th overs from Arshdeep and Rabada sealed the deal for the Punjab.

Also inform Ambati Rayudu lost all his carrots at the end, tells you lot about his fitness level. He didn't field much at first half of the match and played 39 balls, batted beautifully tho and because of him CSK had a chance but got cooked royally in the process.

RR on a roll. Another crazy result. Almost everyone probably expected RCB to easily defeat RR after restricting them to 144, but they got defeated easily instead. Amazing bowling by RR(Kuldeep, Ashwin and Krishna) overall.

Looks like RCB won't win the cup this year either, but they still have several chances to qualify for the playoffs though the race is definitely heating up quickly.

Really bad performance from Royal Challengers Bangalore. Unable to reach 145 runs with players like Virat Kohli, Du Plessis, Maxwell, Dinesh Karthik, Hasaranga is really bad. There is a chance, but the unwanted run out of Dinesh Karthik made Bangalore miss the chance of winning. During the last overs of Rajasthan Royals Hasaranga missed the catch of Parag after which he scored few sixes. That looks like a turning point of the match. Rajasthan Royals with the win have reached top of the table.

He was batting at 30s i guess but yeah that dropped turned out to be very costly. Also loved the idea that Ashwin Batting as pinch hitter during Powerplay.

I was still expecting RCB to win the match. 144 target was par on this pitch and RCB bats deep (Harshal Patel at 9) so you expect them to chase such target but they are loving the idea of collapse nowadays. More disappointed and sad with Kohli's form.

Excited for SRH vs GT since both teams are in top form in recent times thanks to winning streaks. It's really tough to predict the outcome of this match, but I chose to go with SRH primarily because they are playing better together as a unit.

GT has some great batsmen and bowlers too, but they are heavily dependent on certain players sometimes which is a weak point while SRH doesn't possess such a weakness. Excited!

More excited for Lockie Ferguson vs new speedster Umran Malik. Both are clocking 153 kmph+ consistently and former is marginally ahead of Malik.

SRH's batters are doing good job these days but i still don't have much trust on them because their bowlers are doing the heavy lifting for the team if bowlers fail to deliver tonight then their chances are looking slim to me.  


Edit

Last 6 balls were eventful. Need some fine run chase against this SRH's bowling lineup.


Oh fuck!!

Still in recovering mode from last night drama. Gujrat keep finding new ways to win the match from bad situations, as Pandya said "With this pace they might ran out of luck soon". Tewatia and Rashid murdered SRH in last 24 balls, i wasn't expecting this blinder at all considering Gujrat were 140/5 after 16th over.

Tewatia really justifying his 9 crore price tag in this season. People do make fun of him most of times but he knows how to bat against the seamers.

How the hell do Gujarat keep winning these close encounters again and again? They have the luck of the devil to be honest. When Rashid was on strike in the final over, I was actually relieved since Tewatia wasn't on strike. Never expected him to bang three sixes in 3 balls at the end of the final over.

Lucky times comes with the expiry date so let's see how long does it last for the Gujrat. Rashid also making habit of contributing with the bat, which is good sign for them.

Overall Jansen is not bad bowler, he's the same guy who got Faf and Virat's wicket on consecutive deliveries against RCB but he messed up yesterday and end up bowling his worst IPL over at the death, that's what pressure does to players.

I was so happy before the last over I chose SRH narrow and was almost sure will get 2 points, I became even more enthusiastic when saw Tewatia going on non strike end but then you see Rashid Khan swinging by the bat as if he is Jos Buttler.

I think the choice of deliveries was entirely wrong, especially the choice of the second last ball which went for six. Because he had already went for two sixes trying for Yorker but, beated Rashid when he went for a short Ball ending around Chest of Rashid, despite all this he still tried another Yorker which ended in full toss ending things for SRH, six on the last ball was slightly lucky he didn't middle it but that boundary was so short that he got a six.

Agreed. I called Jansen a horrible bowler because he gave away 3 sixes in 3 balls to a bowler who was under tremendous pressure. Murali losing it was hilarious though.

Throughout this IPL everything is happening as a surprise sometimes. None could've thought of CSK and MI to be on the low bottom. Every team with strong players is disappointing, whereas the teams with unfamiliar players are roaring at the top.

If any other word to mention extremely horrible, that suits him. Who will not lose control, with his bowling he made every supporter of SRH down. Even myself had a hope that SRH will win (chosen SRH to win narrow) and was happy that 22 runs required in the last over. Same as me many could've lost their bets.

Yeah i agree. Bowling full and 130kmh chest height bowling are not excellent tactics against the sloggers, even in gully cricket. Poor young guy succumbed to pressure imo. If he was speedster then thing could have been different with the short ball. Deep fine leg and Third man boundaries are always short in comparison to long on -off so even edges fly over sometimes.

Lol. Expected Punjab to win and was wrong again. The worst part is that Lucknow actually beat Punjab comfortably even though the target was just par which goes to show how badly Punjab performed with the bat.

Chameera's contribution towards the end helped Lucknow win by a decent margin. Both Gujarat and Lucknow are performing really well in their first season.

Punjab despite having all big hitters is being too inconsistent with the bat, their batting order has been anchored either by Dhawan or by livingston except these two rest all of them have failed to put up a show. The worst deal was Shahrukh Khan purchased at such a high price but has performed really bad and eventually had to be dropped. Bairstow which I thought would be something like what Buttler is for RR has barely scored in any innings. So once again like every year Punjab is not able to find it's balance, but yes on that contrary this time there bowling has been better if you leave that one match against GT. But they definitely don't look like a team which could go into playoffs.

Both of us were wrong. Am on a 4 match losing streak currently primarily thanks to Gujarat who keep winning like crazy. Looks like SwordsRex will surpass me. They are the first team to qualify for the playoffs and only lost one match so far.

Their middle order batsmen are truly something else. Mumbai are out of the race which means that 8 teams are basically competing for the remaining 3 spots.

Same here man i was well on the top but now in this round i have almost got everything wrong, GT is turning out to be undefeated 11, they always get that one player who takes them beyond the par score. After RCB made 170 I was almost sure that they would win this match but GT chased it with 3 balls to spare, King Kohli did hit a half century in this match but his strike rate is just around 100 after playing around 53 balls but atleast this might be a start for him on getting back in form.

Even though they are out of the tournament but still that Smile on face of Rohit Sharma was really priceless. No team wants to get a tag of 9 consecutive losses and especially the most successful team of the IPL history. Playoffs situation is getting a bit interesting now, GT has qualified for sure, apart from that still 7 teams are competing on 3 spots, with RR, LSG and SRH on same situation.

Now the only thing we need to see is Rohit Sharma getting back in form, i was expecting him to stay in the crease for a much longer period of time but still he is struggling to score runs and with him being struggling and his entire team struggling to secure a win, it was a pathetic situation.

Gujarat Titans secured their spot and the match is between Lucknow Super Giants, Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad to secure the next spots and these are teams i am expecting to see in the next round.

Even though Virat Kohli scored at a slow pace he finally had a break through after two ducks which questioned his place in the Indian team. Rohit Sharma is yet to find his touch and it is good to see Mumbai breaking its jinx  :D.

The change in captaincy somehow changed the complexion of the team as the opening partnership scored 182 runs and they score above 200 runs and it looks like the change in captaincy will change their fortunes.

After a long my pick of Chennai Super Kings winning the match in a comfortable manner have won. It wasn't a big win for Chennai, because if Nicholas have scored few more sixes during the 18th over the match could've gone to Sunrisers Hyderabad. The ground fielding of CSK is good, but it kept dropping catches which has caused them loss most of the previous matches. Also CSK stands on the top with 19 dropped catches in this IPL season. Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans stands next with 15 dropped catches.

As @JSRAW mentioned earlier, most participants still have a chance at finishing in 1st position due to minute differences in points which makes this prediction pool even more entertaining. Let's see who finishes on top soon people.

This really had me laughing when I saw the replay, if a fast pacer would have done this thing, It would have made sense that he wants to deceive the batsmen with the pace, but a spinner bowling from so behind doesn't makes a lot of sense to me atleast. But despite this you can't deny the Ashwin is the most innovative bowler in the world currently. Even if the track is not turning he can deceive you with the pace or with the pause in the action or with an offspin in between those carrom balls or the worst case could be he will just mankad you  ;D

Looks like CSK's fortune has changed once again just as MSD has become the captain again.  ;D or should I say Gaikwad's fortune has changed? MSD is undoubtedly the best captain in the world but I feel if your captain steps down it makes more sense to give the opportunity to the next in line rather than to one who stepped down from it earlier. This will just create a controversy that Jadeja was anyways just a dummy captain therefore resigned.

- Virat scoring runs, finally! At ridiculously slow pace but we're still celebrating.  ;)
- MI won finally!  :D But birthday boy Rohit was found guilty of eating Vadapav again.  :P
- Ashwin treating IPL as his experiment lab, he did new funny thingy yesterday.
- Jadeja gave up on captaincy already due to his poor run, indeed big setback for him. CSK went back to Dhoni.
 
Even though Virat Kohli scored at a slow pace he finally had a break through after two ducks which questioned his place in the Indian team. Rohit Sharma is yet to find his touch and it is good to see Mumbai breaking its jinx  :D.

The change in captaincy somehow changed the complexion of the team as the opening partnership scored 182 runs and they score above 200 runs and it looks like the change in captaincy will change their fortunes.
I hate to say but no one has backbone to replace out of form Rohit at top and Kohli at number 3.

Fair amount of young blood putting up good show for everyone, despite limited opportunity. I just hope that they get some chances in upcoming bilateral series for more exposure, if not in T-20 WC.

Let's see who finishes on top soon people.

Epic stuff as usual Royse. Unfortunately, I don't think I will win this round thanks to my recent losing streak.

Lol. I would definitely win that thanks to my 7 match losing streak which finally got broken thanks to KKR today.

@webtricks was the only one who correctly predicted that Punjab would win easily against Gujarat. Punjab batted and bowled really well against the top team in this season so far which implies that they shouldn't be underestimated.

Lucknow needs one more win to qualify which implies that 7 teams are fighting it out for the remaining 2 spots. Am expecting SRH and RR to bag those 2 spots.

This is current standing in recent round. We still have 2 matches to go in this round, you leading the point table is possible if you manage to hit the bull's eye in both matches with bonus points. Given other participants abstained both the matches or lose. Easy peasy  :P

Looks like CSK are out of the playoffs race along with MI. Crazy to think that these two heavyweights are out of the playoffs race so early. The big changes to this season were phenomenal and made a huge impact overall.

It's still tough for RCB to qualify at this point, but they have some hope now thanks to this win. Extremely entertaining season so far.

Chennai's future depends on next(Gujrat Titans) top 3 teams points. They would hope that next 3 teams get stuck at 14 points along with them, that means lots of "If and Buts". They would also prefer if qualification comes down to NRR. Although seems highly unlikely scenario considering every team is playing 14 matches each and majority of them do have at least 4 more matches to go.

RCB on the other hand got only 3 matches left so they are in tricky situation atm.

Delhi did cross the 200 mark but this 207 score doesn't look daunting at this surface.

We shouldn't forget that 200+score at this same ground is not big deal, 1 team already chased down mammoth total once so it's not impossible and SRH do have fair amount of chance.

Good to see Warner scoring runs against his franchise (SRH  ;D), after all he was prominent face of the SRH's setup for many years.

And that's another loss for me. It's becoming more and more difficult to predict the winners and the margins as we get closer to the playoffs stage.

I would have bet on DC if I knew beforehand that Natarajan got injured and wouldn't be playing since he is the best bowler in their line-up currently. SRH are sinking currently while DC are rising back to the top.

CSK is out let's just accept that fact, creating imaginary scenarios using calculation is a sign of a true fan :D however practically these miracles have a extremely low probability of happening. I do see the tournament currently too skewed, until now it looks as if GT and LSG are surely going to make it, but for the next two spots there is a big fight between 6 teams primarily, with RR in the best situation and KKR in the worst. Tomorrow's match is just a fixture has no relevance for the points table, while the match day after will be a decider if PBKS loses I think their road to playoffs will become tough

This time expected teams have come out of the league very earlier without making things tough. If CSK have won against RCB it had chances of making into the playoff. Now the competence is between the six teams DC, RR, SRH, PBKS, RCB, KKR. In my view CSK and MI will block the playoff entry of few teams making unexpected wins.

This is the phase where lower ranking teams could perform slightly better than the rest, might even surprise us at times. That's how it goes in the long tournament, otherwise it would be dead state of affair. We need more drama to spice things up, may be more controversy.

Well said. I never expected Gujarat to not score 10 runs from 7 balls when they still had plenty of hitters remaining in their squad. Sudarshan hit wicket and a couple of run-outs towards the end made it feel like this match was fixed to some extent.

Daniel Sams is an average bowler and he actually managed to give away just 3 runs in his final over which is seriously bizarre. Looks like @teosanru grabbed pole position currently.

MI had me lose almost 3-4 bets that I placed on them but they have adequately compensated for that with last two wins :D . Surprising was that I am still betting on them after so many losses. But they gave me 2 Margin points in both their last 2 matches. When they socred 177 I thought I might get 1 point today but with 10 runs in the last over and with likes of Miller and Tewatia on the crease I thought it's a cakewalk, even after the wicket I though Rashid Khan would do this pretty easily but Daniel Sams with just limited weapons in his arsenal bowled pretty nice slower ones, he didn't attempt any yorker near the batsmen which actually is the prime reason bowlers get hit for boundaries in death overs.

I guess no one expected that Daniel Sams could actually defend 10 runs against Miller, Tewatia and Rashid but surprisingly he did.

I also had no hope when i saw Miller and Tewatia batting at the crease and went to bed early, only to check in the morning that MI won the match. I'll watch some highlights now.

It seems Gujju's luck is running out now.

But they are literally surrendering tonight and in no mood of fighting be it ball or bat. 26/4 so hard to see them winning this match.

A crucial game and Kolkata Knight Riders surrendered completely, just saw some powerful hitting from Andre Russell which was missing for a few matches and the rest of the batsman struggled to score runs. The over Shivam Mavi bowled changed the match upside down where he conceded 5 sixes and from that they never recovered and now official out of the tournament.

That was smart bowling, but it's still tough to believe that experienced players like Miller and Tewatia couldn't score 9 runs off the final over. Bizarre result.

MI were out when they lost 8 in a row itself. Even a miracle couldn't get them into the playoffs after that losing streak. They need to replace Pollard too.

And now official out of the tournament.
Not yet. They are almost out, but they can still qualify if they win the rest of their matches and if some of the other teams keep losing their matches.

I don't know about their calculation but I took a great hit today, lost both the points today and lost the marginal lead that I was carrying from last 2 days. I also thought the same that IPL guys would want the calculations to get more interesting so they will definitely make KKR Win  ;D but it happened entirely the opposite. Even for PBKS also it's almost over, it's difficult to win 3 on 3 matches that are left, and from that also one is with LSG table toppers and even DC can give a great fight to them. I think race has now narrowed down to just 4 teams for 2 spots with RR in the most favorable position and the rest of the 3 being equal. The SRH vs RCB match will clear some more clouds from this.

Really bad day, myself too lost both the matches prediction. Predicted Punjab Kings will make a narrow win. Everything was going fine and at the last moment things weren't supportive as Hetmyer changed the match. So my prediction of PBKS narrow win ended with Rajasthan Royals narrow win.

In the second match picked KKR make a comfortable win, but this went as a thrashing win for Lucknow Super Giants. From the very beginning of the KKR innings there is not much of hope, but at the end Andre Russell brought in some hope which didn't last long. Hoping for the best results on today's matches.

Missed a few matches and Rajasthan Royals played well for the win, KKR is struggling with the bat and another pathetic performance when they wanted a win.

Virat Kohli once again went for a golden duck, he is creating some sort of record by getting dismissed for first ball ducks  :D. The games he scored runs the strike rate was really bad and you can say that slow pace almost cost them the matches. Crucial match for both the teams and i think Sunrisers Hyderabad will come out on top.

I reached home quickly just to watch kohli bat but that excitement lasted only 1 ball. Wasn't surprised tho but i did say "OH #uck! Here we go again"  ;D

Williamson also did the same. I wonder if SRH is now going to treat him similar to Warner? That means new skipper (Nicholas Pooran) for SRH. Pooran is now leading the Windies teams so it's possible if they dump Kane Mama.

I put my money for the victory of Delhi today. Since Chennai's captain is now Dhoni. He is an extraordinary captain. He has the ability to take control of the match at any time. Google now shows Chennai's chances of winning 61%. Because they have scored 57 runs in 6 overs and they have not lost any wickets yet. Yet Delhi has an experienced squad. And the players are in good form. Hopefully I won't lose my money today.

Sad for you, that it was more than a thrashing win for CSK today, even though they are out of the tournament, you have to agree their performance has changed 360 degrees after they have made Dhoni their captain once again, Even though it's useless now at least for this season as it's too ambitious for them to qualify for the playoffs. But after matches on this weekend, the league looks pretty obvious now, primarily the fight is left for the 4th spot only for which RCB looks like the top favourites and leaders as well, rest of the teams have to win all three matches and expect RCB or RR to lose all three matches in order to get a chance for the playoffs otherwise NRR would become a deciding factor.

Agreed. SRH and DC got thrashed royally today by RCB and CSK which was unexpected considering the fact that both RCB and CSK have been inconsistent throughout this tournaments.

Nobody expected them to play so well. As you mentioned, it looks like RR and RCB might claim the remaining 2 spots and we might finally see a new winner this time around.

This was really unexpected for me because I did not think they will produce a performance like this when it actually doesn't matter. 

But one thing I will say is that this has surely shown what a good captain can do for his team. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is a great captain and he has served the Indian team very well also. I want device he was not the captain of CSK from the start of the IPL.

KKR were playing so well initially, but they are losing wickets very quickly now. Why do they keep collapsing again and again? Disappointed with Shreyas Iyer's performance this season.


But one thing I will say is that this has surely shown what a good captain can do for his team. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is a great captain and he has served the Indian team very well also. I want device he was not the captain of CSK from the start of the IPL.
Giving up captaincy in what is most probably his final IPL season was one of the dumbest decisions that MSD ever made in my opinion. He could have guided the team in a better manner and Jadeja could have probably performed better.

Edit: Lol. KKR actually thrashed MI. This is probably a new record in IPL people(4 thrashing victories in a row).

At least Bumrah took a five wickets  ;D

This Mumbai batting line up is becoming so much dependent on SKY. No one else seems to fill the gap for them and SKY is ruled out from the season due to injury so MI should increase their lost match tally to 10th min.

Big match today people. Gujarat vs Lucknow! This is basically a warm-up match for the both of them since they already booked their playoff berths. Excited!

True. I don't really blame some of the newbies since they were given very few chances this season. However, I never expected KKR to thrash MI when they were getting screwed again and again in recent matches.

Edit: 5 thrashing victories in a freaking row. What the heck is going on?

I am rooting for >14 points each< clash scenario for rest of the teams (except Gujrat + Lucknow + Poor MI)

Rajasthan should lose remaining 3 matches
RCB should lose remaining 2 matches
Delhi should win 2 and lose 1
SRH should win 2 and lose 1
KKR should win 2
Punjab should win 2 and lose 1
Dhoni should win all the matches  ;D

Am getting tired of all these one sided matches these days. Some teams are suffering a lot thanks to critical players getting injured. The playoffs stage this time around will be different when compared to previous seasons(2 old teams out(CSK+MI) and 2 new teams in(GT+LSG).

Dhoni should win all the matches  ;D
Lol. MSD, Rohit and Virat have passed their prime, but it's still entertaining to watch them play for various reasons.

Yeah they are going on rampage of loop sided victories. Becoming bit boring but it's mainly because 2 heavyweights not qualifying for the playoffs.

I'm quite surprised by Gujrat and Lucknow's performance. I've never imagined that they would perform like that, specially when Pandya and Rahul leading the franchise.

Am surprised too just like you. Didn't expect much from both of them, but they over-delivered. Gujarat got extra lucky though when compared to Lucknow which is why I feel that Lucknow is the stronger team in comparison.

Tonight's fixture is indeed a battle of losers but result is going to impact other franchises as well.

If CSK wants to stay alive then they need to win (Slight possibility). Punjab, SRH, RCB, KKR, DC, RR's fans would like to see CSK losing the match, otherwise CSK could complicate their qualification prospect.

If CSK lose against MI then they are also OFFICIALLY out from this season.

This is going to be the battle of the bottom two teams and this obviously does not have any impact on the IPL in terms of which team is going to qualify for the next round.

Right now it is really hard for me to credit which team is going to play better and which team is going to win because both are at the bottom of the table but I certainly think that CSK is showing good performance in recent times. Mumbai Indians have also played some good matches but if I had to make a prediction I will say CSK is going to win today.

Haha Finally first time after IPL 2016, we will get a new winner to this IPL, I really want IPL to become a bit more competitive like this, If MI & CSK or any other team builds so many wins and gets a huge fanbase, it will just become like Premier League, people only watching matches of MAN U, MAN C & Chelsea and rest of the teams just having small fanbases. But yes this match today which a lot of people call El Classico of IPL didn't really felt like one, anyways bottom 2 teams were fighting and they also batted like they are playing blindfolded, first CSK collapsing and then MI collapsing while chasing such a small target.This really shows how out of form both the team are this year.

Expected MI to win, but didn't expect CSK to lose like that. What is up with all the low scores these days? I don't remember the last time a team scored 200+ runs and the other team chased it successfully.

Also, DRS not working due to a powercut is messed up. IPL ratings are down by 33% which is really bad just like the crypto market etc.

Would have been great if there was some competition but these 2 giants literally surrendered.

MI's situation i can understand because they are building a new team for the future with many young talent but CSK?

RCB once again are choking towards the end of the tournament, now they have just one match left which is against the table toppers and inform team Gujarat Lions which means it is not going to be easy to get away with a win, PBKS, on the other hand, played really well, I think the sacrifice Mayank is making as a batsmen for bringing out best of Bairstow is really working, Only if Dhawan remains consistent, they now have a really strong first 6 batsmen list, I still feel they lack a bit on batting depth which you need especially if you are chasing a total. But to qualify they still need to win 2 in 2 which is going to be a tedious task, their one match is with LSG and other with DC which would be a knockout for both the teams. I think today's RCB defeat has kept the tournament still open for all the 3 spots to playoffs.

3 spots? I disagree. GT and LSG already claimed 2 spots which implies that the remaining teams are fighting for the other 2 spots. Tough to tell which teams which claim them though primarily because of their inconsistency.

This might clear some confusion. Surprisingly last 5-6 days were full of one-sided fixtures but from now on i'm hoping tight competition for the playoff spots, fingers crossed.

RCB, Punjab, DC.. Poor guys are on waiting list since ages.

For Gujarat and Lucknow it would be special to win trophy at their first try.

Won't mind if RR wins again.

KKR VS  SRH

I think the Kolkata team is the favorite in today's match. The main reason for this is that the teams batting first at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium are getting some extra advantage and the teams batting in the second inning, they are facing a lot of trouble to scores. Even in the last match on this ground, a team like Lucknow lost all the wickets by only 82 runs. If today's Kolkata can deliver a target of 170-180, then their chances of winning are 90%. I think so.

Well they are clearing proving your point right with this fruitful powerplay, even Ajinkya hitting a six although it would be very tactical decision if Ajinkya hitwicket or run out himself.  ;D Can't tolerate his batting much, also he seems to be struggling with his hamstring.

Well that's a nice way to play when you can't run.

Ajinkya is taking too much pressure to be honest, he is not even playing his real game which is the technique may be the hamstring you are talking about is the reason for that, but I am pretty sure he is going to have the same treatment as Pujara in the next IPL. If you see practically now both SRH & KKR pretty much out of the game, Both SRH & KKR are bad on NRR as well, so even if like 3-4 teams clash on 14 points it's difficult that these teams will go ahead. I am taking 16 points as a qualification mark so therefore only 5 teams have a probability to reach there, the second decider would be the match of PBKS and DC on Monday.

Yes, 16 points is the qualification margin. As of now PBKS and DC left with two matches. For RR two matches left, but those are against LSG and CSK. So, PBKS vs DC will be the decider as mentioned. It is said RR have got the highest chance of entering playoff, if it loss both the matches then some twist will happen.

I have no idea what's happening here, everyone keep failing to chase even moderate score and it's happening when playoff qualification is on the line and everybody knows that it will damage their cause in the qualification.

In today's match between Chennai and Gujarat, I chose the Gujarat team to place the bet. Although Dhoni is now the captain of Chennai, there is no continuity in the performance of the players. Gujarat could have won very easily.

In the match between Lucknow and Rajasthan, I expected the Lucknow team to win. But it does not look like Lucknow will be able to win today. Though Rajasthan set a target of only 179 runs, Lucknow's top order was not able to play well. Lucknow lost 3 wickets in 8.3 overs and collected only 53 runs.

I did not watch the match but the performance of Chennai Super Kings is really disappointing mainly their team managers who are not able to pick the right team for the match for most of the tournament.

Considering how difficult it is to bat second, i am expecting Rajasthan Royals to win the match.  Marcus Stoinis and Jason Holder is their main stay and if RR is able to break those partnership then it is a game for RR to win.

The match would have been competitive if the two Lucknow openers had batted responsibly. But the match was completely one-sided. The bowlers of the Rajasthan Royals are controlling the match. An experienced batsman like KL Rahul has collected only 10 runs off 19 balls. Lucknow could not return to the truck in this match due to not being able to play well in the power play.

Gujarat won easily against CSK who performed marginally better than MI which was the worst team in this season so far.

The match would have been competitive if the two Lucknow openers had batted responsibly. But the match was completely one-sided.
Boult destroyed their momentum initially which screwed Lucknow for the rest of their game. With this win, RR qualified which implies that there is a single spot remaining. DC, RCB, KKR and Punjab are fighting for it.

So from what I understand now is that KKR and SRH are certainly disqualified because there are almost negligible chances that team with 14 points would qualify I somehow feel even at 16 points teams might have to fight for their NRR. Whosoever wins between DC and PBKS tomorrow will be eyeing for 16 points as well and RCB is already there eyeing 16 points. So I doubt team with 14 will go through. But if this happens RCb currently has the worst NRR among the rest of the teams so it has lowest chances amongst all to qualify.

Yes, 16 points will be the decider for the playoff. The match between Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings have a big part, because winner will have the chance of keeping the hope of taking 16 points. Royal Challengers Bangalore have got the match against Gujarat Titans which seems to be hard for RCB. Anyhow the net run rate is the deciding factor in the fourth team towards playoff.

Today I chose the Delhi Capital team. But after giving a target of only 160 runs, I thought I would lose today's bet. But the performance of Delhi bowlers is very good today. No Punjab batsman has been at the crease for long. Punjab lost 7 wickets for 82 runs. Punjab's collection in 16 overs is 109/7. They need 51 runs from 24 balls to win. The match is now completely under Delhi's control.

Punjab looks almost out but if DC, KKR, RCB somehow messed up their last remaining match (in that case KKR out) and also Punjab manage to win their last match then things could get complicated between DC, RCB and Punjab. Run rate will decide their fate.

If by any chance KKR-Punjab wins their last match and DC-RCB lose their last match then 4 teams will fight for the 4th spot lol

Tonight's result will seal the SRH's future. If they lose then they are eliminated as well

Mumbai Indians VS Sunrisers Hyderabad

I chose the Hyderabad team for place my bet today. And Hyderabad was able to give a target of 194 runs in 20 overs. The performance of Mumbai's batsmen is very irregular. And so I think 193 runs is enough to win. Mumbai scored 20 runs without losing any wicket in 3 overs. They have to collect 174 runs from 102 balls to win. If the power play can't take any wicket, it will be difficult to win the match of Hyderabad.

Tonight's result will seal the SRH's future. If they lose then they are eliminated as well
I thought that SRH got eliminated after their defeat in their last match. Their NRR is in the negative zone too which implies that today's narrow win against MI doesn't really matter much.

Williamson hit the brakes just like many major players this season. Seems like they got hit by IPL fatigue. Malik keeps improving with every match even though speed isn't everything.

Yup low NRR is not helping their cause, they needed a thrashing win but they failed but battle is not lost completely yet. With 1 match left now, it's extremely tough but anything is possible in the T-20.

Having said that they only have themselves to blame for this debacle. they were in very strong position in starting phase of tournament but they managed to messed thing up royally.

SRH's captaincy role becoming curse for every quality player. It happened with Warner in last season and same thing is happening with the Williamson, i hope SRH management back their skipper this time.

What a roller coaster. After Nitish Rana, Iyer and Billings i thought it's a dead match but boy o boy!! Rinku Singh and Narine made ending very thrilling, although they lost the match but this match was amazing to watch just for fine power hitting from both sides.

Bet on KKR and I felt so disappointed after watching Rinku Singh almost single-handedly help them win the match in the final over. That one-handed catch by Lewis was insane and helped Lucknow seal the deal at the end.

140 from 70 balls by Kock was insane though. Looks like KKR are out of the playoffs race though they had very little hope to begin with.

Both team batted beautifully.

At start Lucknow build their inning carefully and then Proteas batter showed everyone that how Gaint De Kock he is.  ;D He bullied everyone with the bat, madlad.

Yeah, they are eliminated from the tourny, it was their last match and they have only 12 points.

I can't overcome my deadlock of 7-8-9 number positions, always orbiting between these positions :-\.

Only Lucknow is the main fact, Last time Lucknow thrashed Kolkata by 75 runs, and Now they saved their back narrowly. I think it is the magic of batting Pitch.

Margin points keep running away from me again and again recently. I thought RCB won easily against GT, but it turns out that they won comfortably thanks to Superbru's rules.

RCB are still in the hunt for the playoffs thanks to their easy win against GT and their NRR got a great boost, but DC still has the upper hand currently. It looks like one of these teams is going to occupy the final spot in the playoffs.

Since yesterday I've changed more than 5 times. At first, I gave narrow, then easy. and after the toss, I changed it to comfortable, lol :D



So,  finally, Virat Kohli played really well and played an innings that had some importance in winning his team the match.

RCB knew that they had to get their run rate better. They really tried to do that so. But I have to say they did not get that net run rate a lot better, to be honest.

Now we have to wait and watch what happens in the next match of  Delhi Capital versus Mumbai Indians. If Delhi Capital wins they will overtake RCB because of a better net run rate.
I really wish RCB can get promoted to the next stage because I really want to see if Virat Kohli can play well just like he did in this match.

So PBKS have also been eliminated and RR have qualified successfully with this win of RCB today now the only mathematical complication left is between DC and RCB. If DC wins against MI then obviously DC will go ahead due to better net run rate and if DC loses then RCB stands a good chance of going ahead. But even not any one team which I can concretely say will win this year's IPL or even are favourites.everyone is losing matches against everyone.

Delhi's chances of winning against Mumbai seem high. Mumbai's performance is very erratic. However, Mumbai's chances of victory are not low. Because at the moment the performance is almost unpredictable. Even if Delhi does not qualify for the next round, if Hyderabad or Punjab may win their next match, then Bangalore's chances of qualifying for the playoffs are slim.

This particular season is way too long thanks to the introduction of 2 new teams. Personally, I am slowly losing interest in this season just like many others. They should go back to 8 teams or fewer matches with 10 teams from next season onwards.

This could help increase viewership ratings once again. Let's see if the BCCI learn from the mistakes that they made during this season.

Yeah, ideally it should be done n dusted with in 50 days but loony officials wants to milk every penny and in return broadcaster also wants the same.

In meantime umpiring and commentary standard going down dramatically. Willing to give benefit of doubts to on-field umpire because they are bound to make some mistake due to human error but 3rd umpires have no excuse of all.

And tbh i'm more pissed at commentary. After every ball they are pitching for Chips, swiggy drive, Cred, Tata bla bla.

Agreed. Some of the advertisements themselves are related to commentaries which confuses me sometimes. Also, I hate it when advertisements pop-up when there is a single ball remaining(Recent KKR innings) which is crazy annoying.

True. RR somehow surpassed Lucknow to end up in 2nd position due to which they get 2 chances while Lucknow got screwed. A final between GT and LSG would be epic.

I'm expecting a final between the team getting into the fourth position against Gujarat Titans. And the final being won by the fourth team. That would be very interesting, because entering the playoff at the last moment and further making two wins to enter the final and winning the trophy will be more interesting.

I think if RCB qualifies there are good chances that final would be  between GT and LSG only but if DC wins and qualify, i feel there are more chances for DC to go through the finals because of thei recent form against all the teams but anyways there is a 75% probability that we are getting a new winner of IPL this time and even if it's RR it's after 14 long years so it's like a new one only. Thankfully no MI,CSK,KKR in the list.

Ethical mind aka Ashwin Anna reinventing himself in T-20 format. He's definitely having fun with the bat, in this season i've seen all avatars of Ashwin. Economical bowler, Powerplay pinch hitter, Accumulator and last night the Finisher.  :P

In 14 matches he scored 183 runs with the average of 30 and freaking 146 SR. Also bagged 11 wickets with 7.14 ER.

The way DC top order batted it looks like they got bored from the tournament and is in no mood to get entry in the Playoffs. I can understand that it's tough road. Wake up early, do the drills, net practice, toss then spend 40 overs in the field.

RCB fans must be enjoying this one with their fingers crossed.

Expected MI to win comfortably against DC and I was right. Got a margin point after a long freaking time. DC has been inconsistent throughout this season. They were over-dependent on Warner, Powell etc.

Also, it's not just DC who played like they weren't desperate. Teams like KKR, SRH, Punjab etc also played in a similar fashion recently. This is one of the reasons why ratings dropped this season.

To me, it is Royal Challengers Bangalore for some specific reasons. In the last match Kohli played in a pressure free manner and this can continue. It adds more power to the team. Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants will play with more confidence.

Two team that impressed me the most this season was the newcomers Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants and i wont be surprised if any of the them end up winning the tournament. Rajasthan Royals also played well throughout the tournament and their potential is their powerful batting unit and later on started defending totals as well

This really was unexpected everyone was expecting DC to bear MI as ofcourse DC is an in form team against MI who have struggled in the whole tournament, but anyways this make sures that RCB is going for playoffs now, even though I am not a great fan of RCB but I really want them to win the IPL this year, but if they do Kohli would face even more critcism for his captaincy in past.

SRH seriously need to look into changing their entire team management since they have been underperforming for the last couple of seasons(Warner issue, bad selections etc). Also, excited for the playoffs stage.

I don't know what happened to Punjab in the middle of the tournament they started well and played some great matches in between but once again faced the same feat they face each year, i don't know if it's luck or what but they have such a good team on paper and yet they fail to materialize that team in reality which is really disappointing.

Punjab had a strong squad. But no player of the team could play well in all the matches regularly. After scoring 190 runs in two matches, Punjab lost. Again, they have given low run targets like 133, 137 and 115 runs. We could have seen the Punjab team in the play-offs if the players could have performed a little more responsibly. Punjab had enough talented players in both batting and bowling side.

They will remain miss or hit franchise. They are known to follow same script every season, you can always find incredible players in the Punjab squad but somehow they failed to play as a team every single time (except when they were runner up), it tells you more about their management and supporting staff.

Want to put some money on Rajasthan but scared to death betting against Tewatia. Already lost few bucks because of him.

Gujrat bowling first so may be they have slight advantage but when you check the both teams it become hard to choose as both teams have at least 7-8 match winners. Even odds are almost same for both teams.

My bad luck with playoffs predictions continues. RR could have reached 200+, but they wasted some balls towards the end of their innings. Also, GT looks unstoppable currently.

In today's match, my favourite team was Gujarat Titans. But after giving Rajasthan Royals a target of 189 runs, I thought today I am going to lose the bet. At the same time, they lost Wriddhiman Saha's wicket early in the innings. Gujarat won the match only for the responsible batting of Miller and Hardik Pandya. If the batsmen can maintain such a performance, we will see the Gujarat team as the champions of this season.

Poor Krishna, he's a good bowler overall but had a terrible outing last night. Anyway Rajasthan have 1 more shot (positive of being top 2 at table).

I still can't believe that Gujrat already reached the finals without any fuss. They are setting up new trend of stacking batting lineup with finishers only (Wade, Hardik,Miller, Tewatia and in some extent Rashid).

Lucknow was seriously unlucky since RR barely took the 2nd position thanks to a slightly higher NRR. IPL 2022 will be remembered as one of the most inconsistent seasons ever since so many teams kept flip-flopping throughout our the season.

Even with a big target like RCB 207, it was not certain that they would qualify for the finals. Bangalore's bowlers bowled brilliantly in the death overs. They have bowled very controlled. And Bangalore won because they managed to control themselves in the last 3 overs. The match between Rajasthan and Bangalore is also expected to be competitive.

RCB did an excellent job with the ball.

But i think KL Rahul should get some credit too, the way he batted in 207 runs chase, it looked very selfish inning to me. You can't finish at sub 130 SR after facing 58 balls (almost 10 overs) and on the other hand Patidar scored a 54 ball ton with a SR of 200-ish.

But i think KL Rahul should get some credit too, the way he batted in 207 runs chase, it looked very selfish inning to me. You can't finish at sub 130 SR after facing 58 balls (almost 10 overs) and on the other hand Patidar scored a 54 ball ton with a SR of 200-ish.
I don't like the concept of high-value points for Playoffs :D :D (Primarily because it's against me :D ) Just kidding, this has made the league still very interesting, otherwise, I would have been declared a winner already. But thanks to high-value points that pool is still alive. As per Google RCB is slightly the favorite for the next match, but I feel RR has a better chance considering they have a better overall form. RCB won merely because one man stood tall in the batting and that was also an underdog, while the main three couldn't even score a half-century together. Without three of them, you can't win a match this big unless another miracle happens. But one bad thing for RR is their bowling attack and the way it bowled in the last match, batting first gives you a far better chance but if your bowlers continue to bowl like this no matter how big a total you have it can be easily chased.

Nah i didn't get the margin points, only match points.
My mistake. I thought your narrow prediction was correct, but it looks like comfortable was the correct prediction.

But i think KL Rahul should get some credit too, the way he batted in 207 runs chase, it looked very selfish inning to me. You can't finish at sub 130 SR after facing 58 balls (almost 10 overs) and on the other hand Patidar scored a 54 ball ton with a SR of 200-ish.
Looks like you are complimenting and insulting Rahul at the same time. Confusing. Anyway, I feel that he played a gem of an innings while most of the other batsmen played like crap. He is the new Indian run machine these days.

SwordsRex is the only threat for you.

I'm not sure who is fav as they are playing at completely different stadium so depends on the pitch too. IDC about winners as long as it's a last ball finish, low score or high score doesn't matter.

I absolutely love the batter KL Rahul but have to say in IPL he only makes useless runs in losing cause with terrible SR. Because of his slow inning Power hitters like Stonis and Evin Lewis are left with only 16 balls. When team has finishers down the order then you have to use them properly, at least give them chance instead of increasing your batting average.

KL Rahul has a tremendous ability of accelerating the inning but for some weird reasons he always end up with good average but Shitty SR, which is extremely necessary in the T-20.

IMO in T-20 45 off 20 balls are more useful than 78 off 58 balls.

Well ladies and gents..

It looks like Royals are heading to seamless victory and playing finals, their batters doing exceptionally job so far so there is no doubt whatsoever, unless RCB manage to pull things off in last 10 overs, which seems highly unlikely.

RCB    VS    RR

After watching Bangalore's devastating batting against Lucknow, I thought they would do the same against Rajasthan Royals. But against Rajasthan, Bangalore scored only 158 runs in 20 overs. Kohli has collected only 7 runs. Rajat Patidar scored 58 runs off 42 balls. Batsmen of Rajasthan Royals are quite experienced. It doesn't look like Bangalore will be able to win this match.

My horrible luck with playoffs predictions continues. Predicted RR to win against GT earlier and got screwed. Expected Lucknow to win and got screwed. Expected RCB to win against RR and got screwed royally.

It's like good luck just abandoned me completely. This season was entertaining and tiring at the same time. One last match people! Excited for the finale between GT and Royals.

Finally after today I can comfortably say that I have won it : D i hope there is no threat left now for my first position because next match is worth 4 points in total 3 match points and just 1 margin point so even if swordsrex gets all the 4 points he can't beat me for sure. Or is there any other bonus point available too? Talking about IPL i think It's a sure shot win for GT this time unless there is another Butler storm in the final just like Today's match because then chasing any target becomes pretty easy.

Congratulations on the big win @teosanru. Hope I will win the next season of IPL prediction pool same as that RCB team used to say prior to every season of IPL. At the beginning of the league I was on the top, but in between I wasn't able to make proper predictions.

Congrats to you and SwordsRex in advance. Now next 3 participants are competing for 3rd position.

Gujrat is looking fav but i won't count Rajasthan out at any cost. We can expect entertaining game of cricket but man i want close finish for the finals. Would be amazing if we get to see super over, if not then please last ball finish.

You deserve first position since majority of your predictions were spot-on throughout the tournament. After overtaking me sometime in the 2nd half, you just kept drifting away.

next 3 participants are competing for 3rd position.
Yup. That includes me who is on a royal losing streak currently. Myself and Rapter ended up in 1st and 2nd position in the last prediction pool and are now competing for the 3rd position in this particular prediction pool. Exciting stuff.

Thanks bro and rest of the folks as well. I think a few rounds were pretty bad for me and a few turned out to be too good, but thanks to the playoffs it got me a good lead as well. All the very best to both of you guys. Another exciting thing would be the winner that we will get tomorrow of IPL, i am supporting GT tomorrow for sure. There is only one person Buttler who can change the fate of tomorrow's match and that is Buttler no one else can do that.

I am rooting for Rajasthan Royals to win the finals, simply because of Shane Warne who groomed them in the first season of the IPL and made them the winners and a win here will be a tribute for him and i expect Sanju Samson to perform as well for leaving him out of the upcoming tour :D.

Damn. Did you forget me, guys  ??? I am in the 3rd spot currently::)

I was backing GT initially and decided to back RR as they were ballsy to opt to bat first after winning the toss. However, I was surprised to see you back RR as well.  

So, if GT wins, Raptar takes 3rd spot easily. If not, then it's me. So, the fight is between Me and RaptarX. You are out  :P

Both Jaiswal and Sanju were looking okay but they are gone now so things are not looking favorable for the Rajasthan atm.

Good thing is Butler still there but they are left with only 10 overs and Rashid still have 2 overs left, hope Hetmyer takes care of Rashid because he's the only dominating match up against Rashid.



Yeah not easy outing for the Rajasthan.

Congratulations GT! This was easily one of the most boring finales that I have ever watched in IPL history. Bet on Rajasthan and was cheering for Gujarat to finish the match as early as possible since 130 was way too low.

RR surprisingly dragged the match till the 18th over. GT had a ton of luck on their side too(Gill getting 2 lives etc).

However, I was surprised to see you back RR as well. 
Had to back RR since both you and Rapter were in front of me and I didn't really have a choice. RR messed up royally due to which one of you will obviously take the 3rd spot.

Seriously yes this was the worst IPL final i thought this would be very narrow and entertaining but Rajasthan choked like anything and GT who topped the table and topped every sphere proved that they deserved this trophy. A big thanks to Royse and JSraw for organizing the pool, hope to see another pool with upcoming world T20, congratulations to swordsrex and Akhjob for finishing 2nd and 3rd tough competition this time from everyone.

Was also counting on tight match but got disappointed after Royal's inning.

Anyway Son of a Gun Kungfu Pandya did it, was extremely skeptical about his captaincy and the form but he proved everyone wrong.

Even Pandya got the Trophy, poor Kohli.  ;D

Big league for the year 2022 have come to end. Anyhow more expectations and support for Rajasthan Royals were found across, but they weren't able to make it. The team was like a dependent on few players. Yesterday there is no big performance from Jos Butler and the score didn't go high.

His transformation was something else. I wasn't expecting much from him, but he actually behaved like MSD at times(Cool and Composed). They literally won 90% of their matches in this entire season which is phenomenal.
