T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Vaskiy]

Finally CSK have won the match and has entered the finals. Delhi played well in all means starting from batting, bowling and fielding. On the other side the partnership developed by Gaikwad and Uthappa gave stability to the match. The sudden fall of consecutive wickets turned the match, once again the momentum is taken back by Dhoni and the same lead to victory.

Yes, CSK to final. Its 9th time they are into IPL Final. It was really interesting to watch both team really play well and score more than 170. It was an awesome play from 4 players. 2 from DC scoring 50s in very less balls and 2 from CSK, Uthappa and Gaikwart hitting 50s. It was a real treat from Uthappa to his Son who celebrates his Birthday today. Awaiting for next game from CSK.

Dhoni has done a great finish today. It was a competitive match and CSK is the first finalist of this season. Delhi Capitals still have the opportunity to be the opponent of CSK in the final. But I'm thinking that Kolkata will win against Bangalore and they will go to the final by beating Delhi.

Delhi capitals have scored a competitive score of 172 runs and thanks to risabh pant and prithwi shaw for their innings and also a good contribution from hetmyre..it is a very good total but still i am backing chennai super kings to chase this total down

CSK are 111/1 after 13 overs!
Scoreboard says all about CSK's dominance in chase. The CSK opener Robin Uthappa scored his 25th IPL fifty in the crucial moment. This has been a long time in the making but must be appreciated and the results are evident! It's great to see him bat, let's get the winning run.

CSK was dominating in this chase but suddenly their inning came into nightmare just 8 balls 4 runs and 3 wickets now match is very interesting because this change is going to be good for Delhi even Gaikwade is on crease, and they have some good hitters still to come but 5 overs and 51 runs with Delhi are also in good mood after having few wickets can change game momentum in any way for me now Delhi is good for win but still anything can happen.
Rabada and Norje are screwing this nets against CSK batting line up, both are very experienced bowlers and can handle situation like this for their team and for spot in final.

CSK have won the match. MSD has proved himself again as one of the best finishers of modern cricket. Gaikwad and Uthappa gave them a very good start and MSD finished the match with a match-winning knock of 18 runs off only 6 balls. In the bowling department, Hazlewood, Jadeja, and Moeen did good work giving 29,23, and 27 runs respectively. Hazlewood got 2 wickets. For DC Pant and Shaw played a good knock. In the end, it was a very close match. Congrats to CSK for reaching the finals.

Chennai Super Kings rose to the occasion especially MS Dhoni because he was struggling whenever he went out to bat and when Chennai Super Kings lost Moeen Ali in the final over and MS Dhoni walked out i thought they lost the match because they still need 13 runs to win from 5 balls and MS Dhoni was struggling with the bat but he came to the rescue and showcased why he is the best finisher in history and the tweet by Kohli summarize the entire cricket fans feeling .

[ene1980]

I thought Delhi Capitals would win the match as they had a decent score on board but Chennai Super Kings proved me wrong and they way in which MSD can take the match till the last over creates the drama and tension for a T20 match and in a crucial match they were successful even though i thought Delhi Capitals have the bowlers to restrict them but i am not impressed with they way they used Ravichandran Ashwin who is one of their best bowler.

[nhaila]

I have no word because I am the supporter of delli capitals and already betted and lost the match as usual lost the bet. I think strongly that delli can win the match because they are the top rankings point collector team but unfortunately they lost the match. But they have another chance as champion team

If DC wins today's match then they will win this season IPL. They are very strong team if you compare them with CSK. But, you cannot underestimate CSK they have a very experienced team and a captain who is known to win games that were hard to win. Today's match would be the most interesting and exciting match.

You are right. Although the DC team looks very strong and their performance is very stable, there is no way to underestimate the Chennai team. Their batsmen have the ability to collect more than 200 runs. However, considering the performance of the last few matches, we can definitely keep the Delhi team ahead. Since it is T20 format. So we have to be ready to see any miracle on the field.

I always think delli capitals won the match but unfortunately we see the opposite results in the match. If their bowling line up could control and ms dhoni Don't play well then it would have won the match for delli capitals. But however congratulations csk for their glorious victory.

I am not sure whether KKR will be their opponents in the final. In order to qualify for the final, KKR needs to win two matches - first against the Royal Challengers Bangalore, and then against the Delhi Capitals. And both the matches are going to be tough. Delhi Capitals had a bad outing yesterday. But I still believe that they have the best team balance for any of the 8 franchises in this tournament. They should have won the match yesterday, if Dhoni was not there in the CSK squad. Tom Curran, who was bowling well until then got destroyed by MSD.

[Maidak]

I think it is because of Dhoni's extraordinary skill that Chennai has been able to beat Delhi. I know a lot of people lost money yesterday. Everyone thought DC would easily win the match. But early in the innings, Delhi lost wickets of destructive batsmen like Shikhar Dhawan, Iyer and Patel. Still, the target of 173 runs was enough to win. Delhi bowled well. But Gaikwad and Uthappa's 70 and 63 innings paved the way for Chennai's victory.

As a batsman, Dhoni hasn't done much in this tournament before the Qualifier vs Delhi Capitals, but as a captain he did a great job. I certainly understand why MS Dhoni is known as the greatest finisher in cricket history with 18 runs off just six balls to lead CSK vs Delhi Capitals! He saved his best for last.

It was a poor over from Tom Curran. He (Tom) did an excellent job till then, conceding less than a run per ball and picking up important wickets. But Dhoni had something else in mind. And the DC captain just looked clueless. Personally I thought that it was better to go for Anrich Nortje or Kagiso Rabada in the last over, because Tom didn't had many outings for DC this season. Anyway, CSK is just one win away from the trophy. And that will be complete turn around from their pathetic performance in 2020.

Delhi lost for DC's weak captaincy. The last over should have been done with Rabada. Rabada did 3 overs and Ashwin did only 2 overs. One more over could have been done with Ashwin. Tom Curran was able to take 3 wicket so maybe the captain gave him the responsibility of the last over. But Rabada is an experienced bowler than Curran.

[Minor Miner]

Which team would you choose between RCB and KKR? In yesterday's match I chose Delhi and I lost money. In today's match I think KKR will win, the performance of the previous few matches is more stable than their RCB. However RCB is a strong enough team. The match will definitely be competitive. However, I am keen to place the bet in favor of KKR. What do you think about this match?

[slaman29]

Dhoni still breaking Indian internet, I'm out of IPL already but still can manage to enjoy something so it's all good.

Anybody know where to bet on Harshal Patel breaking the wicket record? RCB could still lose and he might even break it then but it's going to be almost for sure if they win and he plays again against DC. I still think RCB win this one!

Tom Curran was looking DC's best bowler that night and Rabada looked off in comparison of other but ofc he should have bowled the 19 over instead of Avesh Khan as Rabada is experienced.

Some might say that Dhoni played the 4d chess. He promoted Thakur up in the order just to make Tom Curran look good so that he can bowl final over.

Little update from Cricbuzz cricket update news that Kolkata Knight Riders are struggling hard for victory. I know so far Kolkata Knight Riders already picked 60 runs within two wickets Lost for 8 overs ....

Which team would you choose between RCB and KKR? In yesterday's match I chose Delhi and I lost money. In today's match I think KKR will win, the performance of the previous few matches is more stable than their RCB. However RCB is a strong enough team. The match will definitely be competitive.

I already supported Kolkata Knight Riders because here my favourite cricketer the world fomous alrounder shakib Al Hasan . He today spelling four overs 26 runs but unfortunately he don't get any wickets today.


I am sure that Kolkata Knight Riders won the match ans they already collected 77 runs within 62 balls. They need 62 Runs for 57 ball remaining. We all see a glorious victory for Kolkata Knight Riders . I wish Kolkata Knight Riders team for advanced victory.

I thought this is the best opportunity for Royal Challengers Bangalore to win the championship and in the crucial match they failed to bat well and was able to score only 138 runs and even though Kolkata Knight Riders lost wickets they have some good players in the crease and for RCB their best bowlers bowled out and they need 12 runs in the final two overs.

[nhaila]

Congratulations Kolkata Knight Riders for heart touching victory. Thank you shakib Al Hasan for your last boundary that turned over the match. If you don't pick boundary then it would be opposite results in the match.

At the time of congratulating KKR I feel bad of RCB. It is one of the team that have good batting an bowling lineup, but never won a finals. Atleast this time I thought it'll win the cup, and now that too destructed. It reached finals in 2009 and lost to Deccan Chargers. In 2011 finals lost to CSK and in 2016 finals lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad.

In this match few changes would've been made, because most are not in a position to play when the team is in need of score.

[kro55]

Kolkata's victory was expected. They were the favorites in this match. Although the RCB team was ahead of Kolkata on the point table, but their performance was not stable and consistent. The Kolkata bowlers were the main heroes of today's match. They were able to stop RCB's batsmen in just 138 overs for their superb bowling. They could not run even after RCB had enough wickets. This is their failure.
