IPL( Indian Premier League) Prediction Thread, 2018.

[Raja_MBZ]

Poor performance by Gautum Gambhir, just 4 runs on 13 balls. DD should've been able to chase out this low-score target.

It was indeed very poor performance from Gambhir. At 36-years, he may need to rethink about his future in the IPL. A few years back, he used to be one of the most expensive players during the auctions... but I don't think that he will feature in the next year's edition.

Age maybe a factor for less amount in auctions but he surely lacking the performance in this year but last year and in domestic cricket he played well but he can't able to play on the big games and tournaments that is why he is not picked for International matched even while he is top scorer of IPL in past years,he can't control his emotions like MSD,he is like a short tempered person he will shout at players when they did something wrong but that is not sportsmanship.So he need to work with the mental performance to play big innings in the future matches.

He's just 36 years old, that's an age in cricket at which most of the players are at their almost maximum fitness. He needs to keep himself fit for at least the next 3 more years.

He stepped down as a captain today and announced that Delhi Daredevils Skipper, Shreyas Iyer will now lead the team in the tournament. That's quite a turn around for Delhi.

I think RCB is now weaker side than before they lost many players who has been doing very well in the past years but still RCB don't get any trophies in IPL because they are failed to make it as a team.

Do you think that a team that has ABD, Kohli, Q de Kock and Umesh Yadav who is bowling really well in this IPL is a weaker side, you are out of your mind, i am not sure about the IPL trophies they won but looking at a strong team and calling it weak is not fair. They might not be playing as a unit but in this match Dhoni played an incredible knock and showed why he is still a strong finisher in the world.

This was a very unwelcome step. Right now, I'd say that Gambhir's form as a batsman is not that great, but his captaincy is still very good. Now see what they are doing. They are making the inexperienced Sreyas Iyer the captain, which will add unwanted pressure on him.

Ya not sure with this sudden step down when the Delhi requires a experience guy to lead from the front and Gambir when it comes to experience is the best and Shreyas on the other hand will the new and may find it difficult at times to take the hard decisions.  Need to see how it goes for Delhi.

Gambir is very practical type of person. He does take any step in basis of emotion. He failed that's why he wants to step down. But obviously shreyas inexperience can be caused more damage to the team DD.

Yes,Gambhir is a very good in terms of capitain because he got trophy for the KKR team inpat years but now as a captain he can't do anything if the players don't perform well.And Shreyas Iyer is an inexperienced cricketer so DD is in great danger now but Gambhir will play in the remaining games with less tension and his natural games.

[jrrsparkles]

Any one bet on today's match? SRH vs KXIP

Such an amazing team performance again by the SRH they again defended small total with good runs to spare.At the initial stage of the match Chris Gayle and KL Rahul hitting the ball very well and chasing confortably but the game changes when both of them fell too quickly.After that KXIP batsmen never recovered from that quick and ofter wickets falling from both ends.

Actually he took good decssion or else everyone will blame him because of team poor performance, now the inexperienced young player is leading the team let's see how he will handle.

Nope, but i was expected this result SRH got a superb lineup, but the match was bit boring.

Yeah, today's match was a very low-scoring one. Just 133 runs was the target given by Hyderabad to Punjab, but seems like the bowling attack and combination of Hyderabad was too much for Punjab, they got all out at just 119 runs. Pathetic batting by Gayle, Ashwin & Finch. Superb bowling by Rashid Khan.

Next coming up tomorrow is between Delhi and Kolkota in Delhi. I'm expecting Delhi to win this one.

Yesterday game was low scoring but not very low scoring as SRH last defended the low score of 118 but now they are performing very good and expected to go for final if same performance is their. In today Delhi match cannot believe them so better bet after toss

[edgycorner]

Mumbai Indians and DD are the real losers this season.I will bet against them in all the matches from now on.
Today we have an interesting match; RCB VS CSK

Imran tahir will be back for CSK, CSK has a good batting & bowling attack.RCB has three left handed batsman so Imran tahir will play a very important role.He will lead the bowling attack with his caromballs.
I will pick CSK for today.Good luck bois!

Just as I said, CSK won the match .-. Well, looks like most of my predictions are always right.Even yesterday I was cheering for SRH. Brilliant display of bowling skills, first the defended 119 and now 132 & both times against top batting teams.I will be now cheering for SRH in every match, even without David warner they are killing it.Maybe the absence of warner is the reason for this change? I think that KW will be making his position permanent & warner is going to sit in benches on the next season.


For today's match, KKR vs DD. KKR is the clear win, DD is still inexperienced and like a new team will make mistakes.With the captain gone, DD is like a lost child now.God helpth DDth.Bet for KKR, right now we are getting @1.75x, which according to me are a very good odds! BET NOW!

The Gambhir saga is a sad one, considering he's a world cup player and the way he's been demoted is bad very bad. Yes he's going to keep the pride up and say it's my call but we'll know it isn't. It's a face saver for him and it's not his fault the entire team is not performing, I hope Delhi wins and salvages some of it's pride will be interesting if he plays today.

I saw a news that Gautham Gambhir is not going to take any payment from the franchise for this year because he didn't perform well so he is going to play the rest of tournament for free.He is just doing what he can do most for his failure to get victories but now it is up for the new man and today match is going to be much interested.

Even if he refuses the payment, it is not going to help the franchise in a big way. What they need right now is wins and not money. Perhaps DD should have allowed him to continue in KKR? Apart from Shreyas Iyer and Jason Roy no one in the DD batting line-up is looking good now.

They will check 1 or 2 matches if Gambhir continues his flop show then they will give chance to other players, this is very important game for Gambhir. yes DD batting line up is weak except 2 batsmen no one is playing well, they got pinch hitter Glenn Maxwell but he is also failed in this season. today's match compared DD I think KKR is better so I will go with KKR.

DD has dropped Gambir, so was it a planned course of action where the DD management has decided to drop in so asked him to step down and since he is no more captain they can easily drop him citing some reason. Will this effect the DD team has most senior member is being dropped now.

Dropped Gambhir and the team came with a bang, 55 runs win. Though they are not in a very good position in standings, but this match might boost some confidence for sure. I think and I would like to see DD team management might consider the next match also without Gambhir, nothing against this great player, but I enjoyed today's game and the level of competition. KKR kind off under performed today according to me.

Ya great turnaround by Delhi Daredevils...ya i love gambhir as well but i think we might not see him play again in this tournament as without him delhi performed well and won by a big margin today...shreyas played a captions innings and that may turn aroung their fortune in this tournament

I think he will be back into the team in one or two games because he needs some rest mentally that is why he dropped him as a captain.He is an amazing player and performed well in the national matches but still he can't able to perform well in IPL because of extra pressure for him due to the captain.But still I have doubt because the new man come in the place of Gambhir has got 50 today so tam might continue with him in the remaining matches too.But finally great win from DD against a big team.

[edgycorner]

For today's match, KKR vs DD. KKR is the clear win, DD is still inexperienced and like a new team will make mistakes.With the captain gone, DD is like a lost child now.God helpth DDth.Bet for KKR, right now we are getting @1.75x, which according to me are a very good odds! BET NOW!

A big surprise we saw today.Iyer smashing KKR off the ground, single-handedly.One of the most impressive innings if IPL 2018, he took advantage of each opportunity.Every poor ball was turned into a rocket crossing the boundaries.Bravo Iyer!  

Even I lost some mBTC on KKR today, but not much disappointed.As nothing is for sure.From today on I will be supporting  delhi in its future battles.Will be fun to follow.Look like the MI of 2015(how they bounced back).Lets hope that DD applies the same magic.

As for today's match;CSK VS MI.No doubt about this, CSK FTW.But after DD's match, anything can happen.This match might give a proxy-confidence to MI.
