IPL 2011

I just remember the innings where Dhoni made him come up the order but he failed miserably with a strike rate of like 50? But yes, you're right - the team as a whole didn't play well but I'll still remember that one innings as a black mark against his name

And I made my sig transparent so It'd look good on both default and black theme, glad someone likes

Not got into it yet, but agree with the Mandira comments

After enjoying last years, I decided I'd pick a team at random to "support" before this years tournament started.

I picked Deccan.

I'm looking at her now. She is just amazing. Very 'delicate' as well

Really, I must have a different channel as I have Shonali Nagrani presenting.

Yep, Mandira Bedi was on last season's coverage, this year it's Shonali as Mandira's pregnant (at least, that's what they said on the first programme).

Pune 17/4

Yas786 · 20 Apr 2011 at 12:03

LOL Pune 4 quick wickets gone in a blink of an eye..that Nechim fella is bowling very well...bowled 1 over, no runs but 2 wickets lol.

Hoping that Mumbai win this as they are one of my fave teams next to KKR.

Weebull · 20 Apr 2011 at 23:53

Jesus, they made hard work of that!

I think Mumbai will win it this year. They look very good.

TheCenturion · 21 Apr 2011 at 17:12

Going at 12 an over after about 11 overs.

But... 26 runs from the last 5 overs and they end at 195/7

Lol, should have got well past 200, but the boundaries just dried up

mike62 · 22 Apr 2011 at 20:34

Not a bad knock today from Chris Gayle.

Vanquished007 · 22 Apr 2011 at 22:05

Yeah on paper you would think Mumbai would walk it.

It was worth him abandoning the windies/them abandoning him

I think so, this should be their year. Chennai tend to have a poor run in the middle games though, and then finish strongly.

Kochi has defied the odds though by beating Mumbai AND Chennai! Every other team has looked beatable, and nothing special.

I think Shonali Nagrani in ITV4 IPL is in the wrong job and confused with bollywood /fashion to cricket. Unprofessional voice and approach to IPL. She seeks center of attraction with fellow colleagues and does not fit in and do not seem to go with a flow. She is only for mere show.
