I think Pune  will not give any chance to MI team to come back in the series.

You really cannot predict everything when it comes to the short format because one performer could change the match with a highlight reel performance. Pune does have a good batting line up and so does Mumbai and they are neighbors and i hope it will be a good match,what i bother is to watch a good match and i do not care who wins .

I think Dhoni will make a difference in the match and i really wish Pune win this final with all the drama associated with the team in the beginning when Smith was appointed the captain they have come a long way to play as a team when needed and reach the final and it is just one step to win the tournament and i hope they can do that.

The big day is here. Mumbai have a lot of star power and big hitters. If one of them really get going, it could be tough for Pune.
Pune on the other hand have the cool cucumber Dhoni. They will want to bow out in style from the tournament.

In this short format game, anything can happen on a given day. Both teams are good and that's they are in final. But as you said MI got good hitters and if they opt to chase down the score then they may do it easily and sometimes it also depends on the pitch. In this match Pune should choose to chase the score then they will have a better chance of winning this game instead of defending the score. It is a good match to watch and enjoy and I will not bet on this match today.

Nowadays, cricket is getting worse because of dirty politics, especially India is playing the major negative role to destroy its reputation, now cricket is not a so-called gentleman's game. it has rotten.

Why do you think only India is destroying its reputation. Do you know ICC is making around 70% of its revenue from Indian team? If India stops playing cricket then ICC will lose so much money and it is common when you know your potential then people tend to take the advantage of it. It is not only India but any country in that position then they will try to control things according to their wishes.

If the other teams stop playing India, then where will India get the revenue from? The Big 3 model tried to squeeze all the smaller nations from their share of revenue. The current model only revises it a little bit.
It is in everybody's interest for cricket to develop in other countries of the world. Look at how far Afghanistan have come.

True that. Almost all countries are having a bad effect on cricket and India is not the worst among all the countries where fixing is a common issue. Many other matches too have been fixed but I agree that IPL is the worst of all leagues where so many teams were blamed for match fixing. But it's the Indian police only who stopped this from continuing and there were sting operations going on as well. Hope today's match is genuine and the deserving team wins.

Certainly Dhoni experience on field is going to play a vital role for Pune to give a tough match to Mi . Though considering the batting line , MI has a strong line up and in bowling Bumrah will make a key difference if he strike early the Pune may be in trouble.

Mumbai lost all three matches against supergiants in this season of IPL and I hope they'll lose this one also as my money is on RPS today. Can't say anything about a result because it's an IPL match. Let's see..

Yes, these statistics good enough to help RPS to be dominated to his opponent MI. Right now MI in pressure as top 3 batsman already fall down. Today my choice will set on RPS, but waiting t0 see the match to get full entertainment.

[erikalui]

What's wrong with Mumbai today? They already lost 4 wickets and with Rohit getting out, all the pressure is on Pollard now. Feel bad for them now but I hope they put up a good score for Pune. My full support to Pune as despite them not playing in their home ground nor in Mumbai, they are able to take wickets in quick successions. I guess the score would be 130-140. 160 would be even better.

Today is Pune day they are doing very good job in bowling and fielding they are champions of this year very surprised winner for many but I feel they are copy of Chennai and they have ability to win because some good and experienced players with this team they give full paisa wasul performance for owners of this franchise

The match is all but over and not at all surprising, Mumbai Indians came in lazily, and honestly they don't even wish to win it. Hats of to Pune, they really deserve to win it. A minute of silence who would have put their calls on Mumbai Indians to win it. Pune will win this game with ease and I feel the trophy should be collected by Ms Dhoni he deserves it. Any one played on Mumbai already? Or all were on Pune from start?

[absy]

NO big surprise for me . I expected Pune to win against MI ( like previous 3 meetings ) and I am sure they will finish off well Sad to acknowledge that Pune won't be there next year Got good odds of 2.1 for RPS pre-live.

Yes, am happy that I took that odd because Mumbai Indians just managed to score 129 for 8 and I don't think Rising Pune supergiants will have any problem chasing it and sad to see that Pune will not be there next season.

Inning break now odds for Pune @1.3 still have worth to play because this is going to be low as second inning will start
@absy why Pune will not in IPL for next season they have contract for one year and Chennai is coming back ?

128 is still a good score to defend and in IPL such low runs have also been defended. MI just seemed to play carelessly today. Those run outs and Pollar's wicket proved that they did not take this game too seriously. Run out is the last thing to see in a final match and they were always running for 3 runs despite of knowing they could get out. If they bowl well, MI could win it else Pune should play wisely as the score is too less.

I think both teams are in deep tension, so they are playing the very slow game. Mumbai made just 129 runs, and now Pune is playing so boring batting they need 47 runs in 30 balls. 130 runs are easy target, but Pune is making this very difficult. They still have 8 wickets in hand, but they are not wasting balls and making complicated. Let's see how Mumbai will control Pune in next 5 overs.
