Oh boy

What a match!! Low scoring game are really fun to watch for sure. Didn't had any hope from the Punjab after their batters put on very bad show but damn their bowlers pulled out the game nicely.

Quite surprising that franchise still showing faith in Mr Jadhav, in ideal world he should pay money to the franchise to get selected in the squad.

Lol. I agree. This is easily the worst performance by SRH in all seasons so far in my opinion. SRH bowlers bowled really well, but their batsmen let them down once again.

Warner and Williamson were pathetic while Pandey played a test match innings. Holder tried his best with both bat and ball and failed. Punjab kept their hopes alive. Silver lining for me is that DC defeated RR easily as expected.

I didn't see the match today but couldn't believe my eyes when I saw PBKS scoring 125 in the small stadium of Sharjah and then also in a match in which they are playing with Gayle, then I literally washed my eyes after I saw SRH couldn't even chase the target this small and PBKS won the match by 5 runs, PBKS and SRH are easily the worst-performing teams of the season and obviously SRH is out but PBKS too won't qualify, they can't stand a chance against the big guns, MI too isn't looking in their best momentum this could be said the worst performance from them too, but it's primarily because they have set their performance standards too high.

I have given up on this year's tournament. The first leg was quite bad for me, and the second leg is proving to be a disaster so far. I made a few bets in favor of MI and SRH. And these two teams are in horrible form. But for today's match I went for a narrow win for CSK and looks like the outcome may be the same. Others are far ahead of me, and I don't think that I'll be able to catch up.

Edit: extremely close match, but CSK won with zero balls and two wickets to spare. At one point I thought that KKR had the upper hand. But 22 runs conceded by Prasidh during the 19th over turned the advantage towards CSK.

Still two more matches to go for the round but still I think I can show some attitudes now LOL
Do you guys again want me to post my selections for the next round? 🤪

[JSRAW]

Both of you especially BitcoinGirl.Club did extremely well in this round so you guys are allowed to show some attitude   . Point table is changed completly and it could change again as we have 16 more game to go.

I feel this IPL is going to effect Indian WC squad. They already announced the Squad but this shouldn't surprise anyone if some players gets some heat due to their performance or may be fitness.

If RCB loses today, they will once again reduce their chances of qualifying into the next round, if they lose they will have to win at least 3 matches out of the next 4 that they will play, on the other hand, if MI loses today battle would be quite fierce for the 4th spot as it would become pretty easy for RCB to qualify ahead. We'll then have 4 teams, KKR, PBKS, MI, and RR competing for the 4th spot with neck-to-neck competition, if this happens even a team with 14 points could possibly qualify once again. From the form in phase 2, my bet for the 4th spot will be on KKR.

[Haunebu]

Bet on KKR and Krishna screwed everything up thanks to the 19th over and Jadeja saved CSK once again. KKR fought well till the end thanks to a fantastic final over by Narine. CSK and DC continue exchanging first and second positions in the points table.

Also, I predicted RCB would win comfortably against MI, but I didn't expect them to thrash them. Great to see RCB roaring again.

It was a great game. I don't think RCB will win against Mumbai with such a strong batting line-up with a target of just 166 runs. Mumbai lost their first wicket on 57 runs and they lost the second wicket by 79 runs. Rohit Sharma was dismissed for 43 and De Kock for 24. Then they lost all their wickets for 111 runs. Mumbai could have won the match if the middle order had performed better.

Guru BitcoinGirl.Club you mind sharing your picks for the next round?   Look at that big jump hell yeah

Mumbai Indian is in real mess, i don't remember the last time when they were struggling this badly. Every batter except openers shitting everywhere. Ishan,SKY,Pollard and Hardik struggling really bad in second leg. Ishan, Sky and hardik are in Indian T-20 squad lol. Cries  

[Vishnu.Reang]

LOL.. just noticed that I am ranked #3 currently. A few days ago, when I checked, I was at #5 or #6. Looks like some of my picks worked well and I received some margin points. I am quite surprised actually because I made bets favoring MI in all of their matches and they lost most of them. Made some bets for SRH as well and they are doing horribly. Anyway.. I am happy with the current standing.. and I hope to finish within the top-3 this year (last year, I missed that during the final round of matches).

MI have been in a mess since the start of this season. Most gamblers keep thinking that this is the MI of previous seasons and are betting on them due to which they are getting screwed. They might not even qualify this season.

Made some bets for SRH as well and they are doing horribly.

I lost majority of my predictions thanks to SRH this season. This is why I bet on RR in today's match against SRH and I hope there won't be an upset or something.

What the heck!
He managed to get 2nd position. I haven’t had a look lately as I was busy with some shits going on here. I wish I have followed him instead; I would have been far higher to be chased LOL.
Please share before the next round; I'm going to follow you without having a look who the team is.

Dude, you serious? RR lost yesterday's match and I think it's due to your bet. 

You guys won't believe what happened to me. Before the start of the round, I placed my bets for all the matches and locked them. And then SRH started losing match after match. I wanted to change my bet to RR for yesterday's match, but it was not possible (since I already locked them). And know what? I got two points from yesterday's match. I couldn't believe my luck when I saw the points table. And JSRAW was the only other user who made a bet in favor of SRH. Everyone else went for RR.

Lol. My luck sucks. Fortune favours the brave. Never expected Roy to replace Warner who powered SRH to a comfortable win. SRH management needs to be replaced completely in my opinion.

SRH are basically eliminated at this point which is why there is no pressure on them. On the other hand, RR's chances of making it to the playoffs are low primarily due to their NRR.

We have entered the phase where low ranking teams on the table are going to ruin the party for the play offs contenders. Its fun part, this makes IPL very juicy to watch and very unpredictable. I really hope that play off final tally comes down to run-rate haha.

They persisted with David Warner for so long, despite his poor form. And Jason Roy was just sitting at the bench, endlessly waiting for his chances. If he was given a chance earlier, then SRH would have been in a much better position. SRH resembles CSK in 2020 season. At one point, CSK had just 1-2 wins from their 10 matches, but they won 3 out of the next 4 matches (that was when Ruturaj Gaikwad was included in the playing XI and they finally dropped the out of form Kedar Jadahav). CSK in 2020, SRH in 2021.

CSK and DC qualified which implies that RCB, MI, KKR, Punjab and RR are fighting for the remaining 2 spots. RCB and KKR are in a better position to grab the remaining 2 spots currently in my opinion.

Completely forgot about CSK winning continuously towards the end of the season. Jadhav needs to retire across all formats of Cricket since he hasn't been performing for a long period of time.

This is where we stand. Each team has to play 14 Matches

-4 games for Royal Challangers, so they seem almost safe if they manage to win 2 more games.
-Riders and MI both are left with 3 games under their belt and same points so competition would be tough, KKR has better RR but RR can't save em if they fail to perform. MI is champion team so they can bounce back.
-Punjab's future looks bad as they left with only 3 games and they have a history of throwing games from winning position.
-Rajasthan need to win every game if they want something.
-Sunrisers are already out but they can play the role of party pooper, it would be fun to watch if they manage with their last 4 games lol
