Indian Premier League #IPL Cricket

[BobK71]

We have a king here. Everyone bow to Rinku Singh, 30 runs in the last over playing at the largest stadium of the country, with just 3 wickets left. I think this is Insane. Some could say it's fixed but I would say this is impossible even if the complete match is fixed. Even in fixed Match it's almost impossible to hit 5 sixes on last 5 balls of the match. This was like stealing away the match from mouth of Gujarat Titans.

This match was surely not fixed. Fixed matches do not take the risk of going too narrow where you need 5 sixes in the last 5 balls.
Yes, I know matches win when you need 6 of the last ball, but I don't remember that I have ever seen such a match where you need 5 sixes in last 5 balls, and yet the team chasing wins the match.

We were all complaining we are witnessing one-sided matches in IPL, this match gives answers to all of us 

Anyways I missed watching this match live but will surely watch the highlights.

Seriously, I watched until the 16th over in the first innings, and then when I checked that the target is 205, I thought KKR is going to lose. Then, I checked again when KKR was batting, and there were 12 balls remaining with 42 runs required to win with only 3 wickets in hand, I think, and I didn't watch it and thought KKR have definitely lost this match since there is no chance.

But, I was surprised when I saw that they have won the match by 3 wickets in the last ball of the match. Now I regret not watching the last 2 overs since it was such a thrilling finish, I will definitely watch the full match highlights.

Those who have not witnessed the results of the game will never believe it. In the last 12 balls, 45 runs were collected by the current team, Kolkata Knight Riders. 2 top order batsmen were defeated while the T20 league hawkers were also defeated. But Rinku Singh who dropped to number 5 remained unbeaten in the end. His unexpected victory created a different image between the team and the audience. However, some people hope that they will do better in the next match after finding their bowling weaknesses.

Yesterday's both matches were worth watching. Although, Punjab vs Hyderabad wasn't nail-biting as prior, Shikhar Dhawan's one man army was worth it. SRH had done poor in first two matches, yesterday's win must have provided them much needed confidence.

Hope to see Delhi making comeback as well.

Hyderabad team seems very underwhelming. Although they managed to get a win, the team just looks meh. I don't see them getting to the playoffs, even with a few miraculous wins. 2nd Match of the day was a blast. Both teams showd their batting prowess and out of no where, Rinku Singh with an inning of ages. I don't think anyone can replicate what he did in the final overs of the match. Mind blown.

It was 1st.

rinku singh, 1 in a million performance.

made me loose the match but none the less 😋, brilliant play!!

as for the other match, although shikhar made good runs but i think he is too slow..

same as warner, seems to be only playing for the orange cap and not for team victory.

now, for today's match, which is rcb-vs-lsg..

i am going to again pick rcb, although they tend to choke.

Sunrisers Hyderabad won against Punjab Kings after losing their first two matches. Punjab Kings were in very good form and this was their first defeat. Hyderabad performed very well in this match. Especially their bowlers bowled very well. However, if you want to do well in the upcoming matches, the performance of Hyderabad's batsmen needs to improve. I don't think Hyderabad batsmen are in good form. Their performance is still erratic. But this team also has the ability to move up the points table. Hyderabad's next match is against Kolkata. It will be more difficult for them to win this match.

As for Warner, he don't have support from other batters, might as well be selfish. Shikhar was in same position yesterday, 15 overs 9 wickets gone, all thanks to him his team reached respectable target. 99 out of 66, good strike rate, what's up?

I would call Sunrisers Hyderabad to did upset to the Punjab Kings. The Punjab Kings batted first and made only 143 runs. These runs could have been a lot less if Shikhar Dhawan did not play the 99 runs not out innings. Think for a moment that he alone scores 99 runs and the rest of the Punjab Kings team scored only 44 runs.

Sunrisers Hyderabad did not let Punjab Kings batsmen to settle down and took wickets at constant intervals. Also, Hyderabad chased this small target by losing only 2 wickets hence making sure they win their first game in this IPL.

How would it have been if Shikhar Dhawan could not make such a significant performance in the squad? The performance of other players in the squad looks like they may be laughing. Although it is a part of the game, it can never be expected to be good with a 1 digit run. The match has been completely one-sided. But I also believe that the match won't be good for every day. However, Sunrisers Hyderabad won the match for just losing 2 wickets by displaying as usual game at the target of 143 runs.

It was a very boring match. Punjab's batsmen looked completely aimless in this match. No other batsman can play better than Shikhar Dhawan. After winning the first two matches, this performance was not expected from Punjab's batsmen. The performance of the batsmen as well as the bowlers was poor. However, it was not possible to win on this pitch with such a low target. Still, if Punjab's bowlers put in a good performance, we might have had a chance to enjoy a competitive match. We have seen a completely one-sided match. It was just a waste of time.

both r shitty openers..

they play too slow and waste the 6 over powerplay..

and which is why the other players feel pressure to play fast and lose wickets.

Look like the teams which have lost the initial matches are now coming back to business. I wonder if Mumbai Indians and Delhi teams can also get their first wins in their next matches.

Today's match will be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants. I was looking at the odds at stake.com and found that RCB is slightly favorite with 1.84 odds while LSG has 1.90 odds. I think the odds suggest that both teams are of equal strength and you may bet on your favorite team. Both the teams have lost one match each.

Both teams are equally strong. However I see Bengaluru Royal Challengers as unlucky team. Even after setting good target of 212 runs, Lucknow Super Giants have taken control of the match. Possibly Lucknow Super Giants will complete the match before 19^th over. Nicholas Pooran have took the match to winning momentum scorin 62* runs in 18 balls. Just 28 runs necessary from 24 balls left and this will be easily reached.

Wonderful batting by royal Challengers but still they are about to loose due to balling weaknesses.
Today pitch is for batsmen and both teams did a great job with batting.  Lucknow Super Giants about to win todays match .

This match was really boring. I had high hopes for Punjab Kings as they played well and won their first two matches. Still this time none of the players, except for Shikhar Dhawan played well. In this IPL match  everyone performed poorly on the pitch, and both the batting and bowling of Punjab Kings were not up to the mark. On the other hand Sunrisers Hyderabad had only two wickets down and won the match while Punjab Kings lost with eight wickets down. It was disappointing to see Punjab Kings lose in this situation.
Yet some people argue that this match was still important because it was a competition. Without competition there is no point in having a match

There was great excitement towards the end of the match. At the last segment Royal Challengers Bangalore was very much hoping for a super over but it didn't happen in the end. Today's match gave a lot of joy to the audience. 4 and 6 boundaries were seen throughout the match as the big target of 212. Royal Challengers Bangalore had a good match today but failed there too. Royal Challengers Bangalore is currently at the 7th position in the points table. They need to win from the upcoming matches.

After few boring matches now IPL changing into entertaining way with last three matches having enough thrill and excitement for the fans today as we have 212 from RCB mostly were feeling these runs are enough for having good win but LSG done amazing job and win this match at the last ball of the game Mohammad Siraj was doing impressive job but have no enough support from other bowlers which give big shocking defeat to RCB which was second in three matches.

Pooran is surely big man for having amazing ends of games like this contribution was game changer with Stoinis was also had good job in these conditions now with this win now LSG is at the top of league table, and they can go through for the long time with the performance like this.

Right now, we are in early rounds of this season and things can change drastically in coming days with few teams can go down from top but after watching few matches I have feeling current season is going to be disastrous for the MI because they are not looking good and few other teams are having enough firepower which will give them advantage for having better results specially teams like LSG, GT and RR have good units which will helps them for having better results until end of this season and few teams like CSK and KKR will fight hard for the remaining spot and RCB and MI are looking not good as we have on papers so most chances these teams will be out of the competition.

I am very disappointed with Bangalore's performance. They can't win against LSG either. After an impressive win in the first match, they lost the next two matches. The Bengaluru team was also defeated by 81 runs against Kolkata. And in the last match, too LSG batsmen scored 213 runs against Bengaluru bowlers. Bangalore's bowlers scored more than 200 runs in both matches. The Bengaluru team lost due to not getting good performance from the bowlers. Bengaluru should focus more on the performance of their bowlers. Because if the bowlers perform so poorly, Bengaluru's overall performance will not improve in the upcoming matches either.

RCB had indeed set a very good target and it seemed unlikely that LSG would be able to achieve it as wickets were falling one after another. It felt like RCB would win this match. Though Pooran played exceptionally well scoring a half-century in a remarkable performance. This was truly an exciting match in the IPL with both teams showing strength in both batting and bowling. Speaking of bowling, RCB's bowling was better than LSG's, as they had taken 9 wickets and could have taken one more to seal the win. It would have been embarrassing for LSG to lose with all their wickets down. As you rightly pointed out LSG's consistent good performances can help them build a strong demand as evidenced by the increased demand after this match
