During the last overs of Rajasthan Royals Hasaranga missed the catch of Parag after which he scored few sixes. That looks like a turning point of the match. Rajasthan Royals with the win have reached top of the table.
He was batting at 30s i guess but yeah that dropped turned out to be very costly. Also loved the idea that Ashwin Batting as pinch hitter during Powerplay. I was still expecting RCB to win the match. 144 target was par on this pitch and RCB bats deep (Harshal Patel at 9) so you expect them to chase such target but they are loving the idea of collapse nowadays. More disappointed and sad with Kohli's form.

Excited for SRH vs GT since both teams are in top form in recent times thanks to winning streaks. It's really tough to predict the outcome of this match, but I chose to go with SRH primarily because they are playing better together as a unit.
GT has some great batsmen and bowlers too, but they are heavily dependent on certain players sometimes which is a weak point while SRH doesn't possess such a weakness. Excited!

More excited for Lockie Ferguson vs new speedster Umran Malik. Both are clocking 153 kmph+ consistently and former is marginally ahead of Malik. SRH's batters are doing good job these days but i still don't have much trust on them because their bowlers are doing the heavy lifting for the team if bowlers fail to deliver tonight then their chances are looking slim to me.
Edit Last 6 balls were eventful. Need some fine run chase against this SRH's bowling lineup.
Oh fuck!!

Still in recovering mode from last night drama. Gujrat keep finding new ways to win the match from bad situations, as Pandya said "With this pace they might ran out of luck soon". Tewatia and Rashid murdered SRH in last 24 balls, i wasn't expecting this blinder at all considering Gujrat were 140/5 after 16th over.
Tewatia really justifying his 9 crore price tag in this season. People do make fun of him most of times but he knows how to bat against the seamers.

How the hell do Gujarat keep winning these close encounters again and again? They have the luck of the devil to be honest. When Rashid was on strike in the final over, I was actually relieved since Tewatia wasn't on strike. Never expected him to bang three sixes in 3 balls at the end of the final over.

He sure did justify his price tag, but the real star last night was Rashid. Also, Jansen is easily one of the worst bowlers in Cricket in my opinion.

Lucky times comes with the expiry date so let's see how long does it last for the Gujrat. Rashid also making habit of contributing with the bat, which is good sign for them. Overall Jansen is not bad bowler, he's the same guy who got Faf and Virat's wicket on consecutive deliveries against RCB but he messed up yesterday and end up bowling his worst IPL over at the death, that's what pressure does to players.

I was so happy before the last over I chose SRH narrow and was almost sure will get 2 points, I became even more enthusiastic when saw Tewatia going on non strike end but then you see Rashid Khan swinging by the bat as if he is Jos Buttler.

I think the choice of deliveries was entirely wrong, especially the choice of the second last ball which went for six. Because he had already went for two sixes trying for Yorker but, beated Rashid when he went for a short Ball ending around Chest of Rashid, despite all this he still tried another Yorker which ended in full toss ending things for SRH, six on the last ball was slightly lucky he didn't middle it but that boundary was so short that he got a six.

KKR keep disappointing me again and again. They played well initially, but lost the plot now and are almost out of the playoff race. On the other hand, DC played really well though I didn't expect them to drag the game till the final over.

Agreed. I called Jansen a horrible bowler because he gave away 3 sixes in 3 balls to a bowler who was under tremendous pressure. Murali losing it was hilarious though.

Throughout this IPL everything is happening as a surprise sometimes. None could've thought of CSK and MI to be on the low bottom. Every team with strong players is disappointing, whereas the teams with unfamiliar players are roaring at the top. I think the choice of deliveries was entirely wrong, especially the choice of the second last ball which went for six. Because he had already went for two sixes trying for Yorker but, beated Rashid when he went for a short Ball ending around Chest of Rashid, despite all this he still tried another Yorker which ended in full toss ending things for SRH, six on the last ball was slightly lucky he didn't middle it but that boundary was so short that he got a six.
Agreed. I called Jansen a horrible bowler because he gave away 3 sixes in 3 balls to a bowler who was under tremendous pressure. Murali losing it was hilarious though. If any other word to mention extremely horrible, that suits him. Who will not lose control, with his bowling he made every supporter of SRH down. Even myself had a hope that SRH will win (chosen SRH to win narrow) and was happy that 22 runs required in the last over. Same as me many could've lost their bets.

Yeah i agree. Bowling full and 130kmh chest height bowling are not excellent tactics against the sloggers, even in gully cricket. Poor young guy succumbed to pressure imo. If he was speedster then thing could have been different with the short ball. Deep fine leg and Third man boundaries are always short in comparison to long on -off so even edges fly over sometimes.

Not sure what's happening tonight Both team are competing to lose the match, at least they are trying their best "not to win" similar to last night. First Lucknow saw a comical collapse after excellent start now Poonjab also doing harakiri in this straight forward chase.

The worst part is that Lucknow actually beat Punjab comfortably even though the target was just par which goes to show how badly Punjab performed with the bat. Chameera's contribution towards the end helped Lucknow win by a decent margin. Both Gujarat and Lucknow are performing really well in their first season.

Punjab despite having all big hitters is being too inconsistent with the bat, their batting order has been anchored either by Dhawan or by livingston except these two rest all of them have failed to put up a show. The worst deal was Shahrukh Khan purchased at such a high price but has performed really bad and eventually had to be dropped. Bairstow which I thought would be something like what Buttler is for RR has barely scored in any innings. So once again like every year Punjab is not able to find it's balance, but yes on that contrary this time there bowling has been better if you leave that one match against GT. But they definitely don't look like a team which could go into playoffs.

I think Punjab clearly won the battle as far as shitshow competition goes. ---------- Today putting my money on King kohli, his 50+ score coming in this match and just to support him i won't watch the match or even check the scorecard because i don't want to jinx anything.

Both of us were wrong. Am on a 4 match losing streak currently primarily thanks to Gujarat who keep winning like crazy. Looks like SwordsRex will surpass me. They are the first team to qualify for the playoffs and only lost one match so far. Their middle order batsmen are truly something else. Mumbai are out of the race which means that 8 teams are basically competing for the remaining 3 spots.

What a match winner Tewatia is turning out to be this season. This Gujrat team is full of match winners and all rounders, where Rashid batting at number 7. We still have plenty of fixtures so anything could happen in remaining games. I won't rule out any participants from 32-27 points mark.

Same here man i was well on the top but now in this round i have almost got everything wrong, GT is turning out to be undefeated 11, they always get that one player who takes them beyond the par score. After RCB made 170 I was almost sure that they would win this match but GT chased it with 3 balls to spare, King Kohli did hit a half century in this match but his strike rate is just around 100 after playing around 53 balls but atleast this might be a start for him on getting back in form.

I did won bet on Kohli but i avoided betting on result because i wasn't sure about the results at all. Having said that i also had a bet on Rohit 50 I hate to say but this is going to be shittiest IPL for me if Gujrat and Lucknow turn out to be new finalists. I have shitload amount of hate feelings towards their respective skippers KL-Pandya (not hard feelings as players tho) due to bigger picture in Indian cricket.

Virat Kohli is back in touch but he is not having the same flow like he used to have but some of the shots were great and since you put money on Kohli to perform what is the odds they were providing.
Mumbai Indians finally have a chance to win the game, their bowlers bowled well and now they just need 5 runs in 8 balls to win the first match in this edition .

Finally Mumbai was able to win this match at once when Pollard got out I was really sceptical, i really though this could be another nightmare for Mumbai but thankfully sams manage to hit a very good six to clear all the confusions going around in any body's mind. Even though they are out of the tournament but still that Smile on face of Rohit Sharma was really priceless. No team wants to get a tag of 9 consecutive losses and especially the most successful team of the IPL history. Playoffs situation is getting a bit interesting now, GT has qualified for sure, apart from that still 7 teams are competing on 3 spots, with RR, LSG and SRH on same situation.
