Match between RR and DC was fun to watch and good to see Indian batsmen performing for both the sides.

Surprising factor was Ajinkya Rahane, never saw him bat like that ever and it was a pleasure. I wish he can play like that with consistency, only then he can justify his place in Indian team ODI and 20-20 format.

Rishab pant finally played very sensible inning and didn't threw away his wicket which was a big relief. he needs more inning like that if he really want to fill Dhoni's shoes in the future.

Don't know you guys notice or not but Delhi keep losing matches at the home ground and winning the matches away from home. " Typical Delhi Nature" - Meet me outside-

Big match today. CSK vs SRH. I bet on SRH since their bowling department has improved drastically and they are batting brilliantly(Openers) though the loss of Bairstow might hit them hard.

Dhoni vs Warner. This one will be fun!

CSK will be my pick,even the last match was lost by only one run this happened due to the strong middle order from CSK but SRH has struggling middle order throughout this year,without Bairstow they will surely struggle to get some runs on the board and also it will be played on CSK venue where low score is much enough to defend any team.

I agree with your analysis although SRH has been known to bounce back after losses and they have done so once again recently. Also, we were wrong about Bairstow leaving since this one is his last match(Not the previous one).

[onrise]

CSK won the toss and bowling first. SRH lost Bairstow today for 0 and are batting at 24/1 in 3.4 overs. For CSK to contain SRH they would like to take Warner quickly out beacuse those top 2 batsman of SRH are also the top scorer of the IPL placed at top 2 spots. Last time both played SRH won one sided match against CSK.

[Cloudbet]

I went with CSK today so happy to see Bairstow go for a duck, my main worry was him and Warner racking up a score that Superkings couldn't catch.

Looking for Tahir and Chahar to go big today!

- Warner total Runs: Under 70.5 (1.92)
- Superkings top bowler: Tahir (2.22) or Chahar (11.0)
- Which team will lead after 6 overs: Sunrisers Hyderabad (1.57)
- Team with highest score at 1st dismissal: Chennai Super Kings (1.14)

Don't forget our margins are just 1%! Combined with low minimum stakes (10 sats) and the ability to back/lay your bets, we've got one of the strongest IPL offerings for bitcoin betting this year!

I missed my pick today LOL
From last few days I am having busy time.

My pick today is CSK for sure. Let's see if CSK can win this today.

[Tipstar]

That was some IPL spirit in the Delhi's game and though for a small period of time, they held the number one spot in the league.
They too have a well balanced team to progress from league to playoffs. But are not the best contended for the titles.
CSK surely is a favorite to reach the finals everytime, they have a well balanced team and SRH would be an easy victim for Chennai.

SRH done their first innings and they made 175 runs, it is really hard to make such score on chennai pitch but they made the pretty high score against them. Let's see how the CSK team perform today. Last match Dhoni gave his best no one helped me.

Now they started their innings and I believe Faf or Watson may take over this day.
Else winningis not that much possible for CSK side.

Warner made 57 (from 45b) and let's see how much Dhoni makes. Unfortunately Bairstow got out for a duck and it was left to Manish Pandey to give adequate support to Warner. Imran Tahir failed this time, but once again Harbhajan Singh stepped in and picked two very important wickets. Right now it looks like SRH will win, but for CSK there is still a small chance.

The way CSK is going at present they should comfortable win the match as they now require only 67 from 42 balls and 8 wickets in hand. Watson is playing on 56 and looks good to finish the match as well. SRH will need to take couple of quick wickets if they want to be in the match.

[jvdp]

They won the match finally.

Good play by Watson and he knocked this innings because of Rashid Khan itseems. LOL. He has anger towards him and made around 40 runs in his 4 overs itself.
Now they were qualified for play off. Still they will looking forward to stay 1st in this series.

CSK was qualified and they deserve to stay at the top of the table. Watson seems to love playing against SRH based on what I have observed. I lost my bet again by betting on SRH, but this was a fun contest to watch.

SRH still needs to keep winning if they wish to qualify.

[AB de Royse777]

I noticed this with SRH last year: They start good then in the middle they lose track. Once things become very tight for them to qualify for the next round then they again starts to win LOL

SRH is my 2nd favorite team and I hope they starts winning in a row from the next matches :-)

Finally Watson proved why he needs to be on team,he can take the team to win by single handed like what happened yesterday's match.

I think he lately adjusted to the Indian conditions so hopefully he will continue to good form on upcoming matches.

Sadly he misses out a century.

Single match can't determine anything. He is excluded from the world cup squad because Australia already has 3 better openers than Watson, however, he is an all rounder though.

FYI Shane Watson already retired from international cricket.

He is only playing domestic T20 tournament all around the world,he came to IPL 2019 after most run scorer of Big bash league 2019.

I agree. My favorites ordered from top to bottom:

- SRH
- KKR
- CSK

I strongly believe one of these teams will lift the cup this year. Hoping SRH will be the team to do it.

My bad.
I was really not aware of this. I can't remember if I have ever heard of this. Thank you anyway. He would play some more days. He is still fit for cricket.

Guys, Watson is retired cricketer and already took his retirement from International cricket in 2016

1. Last test against England back in 2015
2. Last ODI match against England 2016
3. Last 20-20 match against India in 2016

International players not going to play long enough for their respective franchise. specially those who are part of world cup team for their respective team. only caribbean and Afganistan players playing till the end in Ipl if I remember correctly.

So Winning the Ipl trophy will depend on performance of Indian players.

[erikalui]

CSK has only 3 matches left and have won 8 matches but their run rate is below MI and even Delhi so if Mumbai manage to win all 4 matches, they may reach top 2. I want Kings XI to reach top 4 but their next matches are all going to be tough. Looking forward to today's match with RCB. RCB now are like wounded lions fighting till the end.

[Sithara007]

RCB has the momentum in their favor. The addition of Dale Steyn was a huge boost for them and now their bowling lineup looks much stronger. Yuzvendra Chahal is also in good form. But Umesh Yadav and Navdeep Saini are proving to be extremely inconsistent. If they want to beat KXIP, then they should find a way to tackle Gayle early in the innings. May be Steyn can get him this time.
