T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[pakhitheboss]

Haha that shit really looked fixed to me. 3 balls and 1 run with two okayish batsmen in the middle. It was actually unexpected and no one thought match would go for superover. Moreover the second mistake of KXIP was not coming up with Mayank Aggarwal in the Super Over. That man was in such a good touch and well settled and would have hit a few runs unlike Rahul, Maxwell and Pooran. All three of them failed miserably in the match there was no point in three of them coming together to bet.

I can't really trust any of these matches. After all, a few years back two of the franchisee owners were caught for match-fixing (they were let off with very lenient punishments because one of the franchises were owned by N Srinivasan). But this particular match looked OK. Even if they want to fix the match, would they wait till the last 3 balls to do that? But agreed that KXIP should have sent in Mayank Aggarwal. That was a big blunder from their part.

Captain prefers big hitters for the super overs so we can't say this is a match fixing.
It seems players are struggling with hot weather condition in the UAE, anyone noticed that? Because at the beginning scores started to rain in the beginning but after a while it looks too hard to score the runs.

Yeah that can be an issue the weather at this time is of the year is pretty hot their but, it can be also be the pitch.

I do not think matches are being fixed and why will the player or the franchise indulge in it they know what will happen if they are caught.

Yeah I completely understand that these games can at times be a bit uncertain but another major thing that happened during that match was Chris Jordan's run being given a short run in 18th over. In Replay one could easily see that he completed the run it was just bad umpiring. That 1 run would have been too useful for KXIP. I don't why these fishy things happen in such close encounters.

I don't think weather is that bad. IPL in india is also played in pretty hot conditions. Especially in for coastal teams thry experience too much humidity too so players must be habitual to that.

There is not even a 0.0001% chance that the matches are fixed. KXIP lost the match as a result of their own stupidity. There is no point in blaming the umpire or anyone else for their defeat. They just needed one run from three balls and still they went down. Mayank Agarwal played so well till the final over. But then he wasted a golden opportunity to give KXIP 2 valuable point as a result of his short-sightedness.

KXIP fans would have been shocked on this loss. Till the last ball, they were the favorites but they could not finish it properly. I feel sorry for those who bet on KXIP. I can call this bad luck for them that they lost the bet.

There is no room for complacency in T20 cricket. A single mistake can cost you the match in this format. In the test format, or even in the ODI format, you have some room for maneuvering. But no such liberty with T20 format. Every ball is like a life-and-death duel. Hopefully they have learnt their lesson and will perform in a better manner during their next match (vs RCB, on 24th September).

Anyone betting for today's match?Samson hit 9 sixes and the run rate was uncontrollable at that moment after a while CSK is trying to get their form with some quick wickets.But still RR is at the reach of 200 today.

[erikalui]

Just started watching the match and saw the runs to chase. 217 damn!

I bet on CSK today but looks like another tough chase and almost impossible if they lose wickets early on. They desperately need a 100+ partnership again to win this match.

What a game! What a great innings by Samson! I could not take my eyes off the TV. I became of his fan. But CSK is a good team. They have some skillful batsman like Waton , du plessis  ,Dhoni and Jadeja. But 216 is a huge total. I don't think CSK can win the match anymore. I think they can score like near around 180.

Murali Vijay got out just now. Sam Curran has come to bat, and he started with a boundary. CSK has 8 wickets remaining and the required run rate has climbed to 12.72 per over. It will be interesting to watch MS Dhoni. He needs to play a good innings today, in case CSK want 2 points from today's game. I don't have much hope on Kedar Jadhav and the other local players.

CSK lost Sam Curran as well and the current required run rate is just under 13 so for now.it looks highly not possible, lets see how CSK players will tackle the condition and how long they can keep their fans hope alive.

Look like you will lose the bet today because CSK cant make 50 runs in the last 2 overs. The target of 217 was never easy to chase. Smith Captain played the match winning innings with Samson Rajajasthan Royals and started the IPL with a win.

Lost the match by only 16 runs,CSK took the match too vlose but too many early wickets made them to be on the losing aide today.Anyway good to see MSD 3 convective sixes in the last over.CSK missing the one extra bowler this season which never happened in any of their previous seasons as far as I know.

Though there are a lot of live streaming site stream IPL but i think Youtube (Rabbitholebd Sports) is the best way to enjoy IPL for free.
You can enjoy IPL Live very easily from here : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNU0Vv6U1xZS82cIQrgDeqw

Does that channel telecast live matches,if so that would be great.

Well KXIP cost me my live in-play bet as I was confident they would win just needing 1 run from 3 balls but it wasn't to be. I'm new to betting on the IPL and I wanted to try a game that looked good for a win but it goes to show even with 3 balls left and to get 1 run isn't a certainty.

It was a messy situation, the odds during the last over for KXIP to win changed drastically after the first 2 balls and if anyone wagged a bet with 14 odds on the opposition it would have been golden  .

What a great innings by Samson! I could not take my eyes off the TV. I became of his fan.

I am also impressed by the way in which he was taking apart spinners and most of his sixes he struck were huge in any grounds, i have not seen him play for India, is he an explosive batsman and does he bat like this always, if so India got a prospect for the next T20 World cup.

[bryant.coleman]

CSK did manage to make 200 runs which is indeed a very good chase but since the target was too high, they fell short of just 17 runs. MS Dhoni sixes did come late in the match when there was no chance of winning for CSK.

The attitude shown by Dhoni was very disappointing. He could have batted at no.5 or no.6, but he chose to came to bat only after Kedar Jadhav and Ruturaj Gaikwad. What's the logic in sending the inexperienced Gaikwad to bat, when the required rate is around 12 runs per over? Dhoni could have taken the responsibility and scored some quick runs then.

If he can continue this type performance in this IPL, then I hope we will see him in the next T-20 World cup. He has really some incredible skills. I want to see his performance in the next few matches. I think he will be able to make his place in Indian's national squad.

Dhoni's match finshing have long been talked about but for most part of the last few hears, it has been mostly hype. There have been previous matches in ODIs too where we are left wondering why Dhoni isn't coming out while he keeps sending other players to do the magic. We have all watched quite a few of those frustrating Dhoni matches..lol..
And most of the time its the players on the other end who end up slogging and winning the matches..For example, if not for Curran, they woud have found it difficult to win the last game.

If he can continue his this type performance in this IPL , then i hope we will see him in the net T20 World cup . He gas really has some incredible skills . I want to see his performance in the next few matchs . i think he will be able to make his place in Indian's national squad .

Sometime back, there was a lot of controversy when he was dropped from the team after just one or two matches. Virat Kohli was booed by the local spectators when India was playing a match at Trivandrum (Samson is originally from that city), when he gave preference to Rishabh Pant over Samson. This incident left a lot of bad blood and the selectors ignored him after that.

Whatever happend in the past will now not affect his future. Tremendous batting from him yesterday, if he can continue his form in this IPL then he might get selected. Consistency does matter nowadays in cricket.

Today's match of KKR vs MI. I bet on Mumbai Indians today. I think Mumbai Indians team is slightly better than Knight Riders. Polard and Sharma are very skillful batsman. They are able to give us some destructive innings. What do you think about tonight's match? Can Mumbai win tonight?

KKR on the other side has got equal firepower both in the batting as well as bowling, looking forward to see the fireworks from Andre Russel today.

KKR won the toss and they choose to bowl first at the moment,dew factor is there so one who bat at the second innings has better chance to chase down any score.
