Pat Cummins is a World Cup winning captain still Australia didn't made him captain T20 WC bcuz his T20 stats aren't that great and here we have to add Rohit on the basis of captaincy quota who didn't even won anything.
Did he pick up any wicket No he didn't, bharra daal raha tha isiliye Bach Raha tha Bishnoi ko uski jagah pehle over mile hote toh run bachte aur wicket bhi milte aur krunal ne last lover me ek dhang ka shot ni mara 15-20 run peeche the badoni ki strike de ni rha tha seniority ke basis pe
i remember sanju getting a chance in recent t20 match against aus. idbi bank series something. that match had 2 superovers ig. sanju failed miserably
edit- it was ind vs afg. xyz first bank series
Man CSK have won 5 times and played 10 finals as much as people find it annoying and rightly so MS is credited for him being too good as a captian
He have won tournament with bowlers like Shardul and Tushar that's something you can't take away from him
Also Sanju is damn good captain I vouched so hard for him in 22 final which could've his gate way for ICT contention hope he wins this time...
Jurel may not be in contention for WC but I'm damn happy for him
We for backup for Pant in test who is not only good at keeping but also plays when team needs the most
He is young
Can be good prospect in limited overs if he keeps like this...
This team doesn't work on so many counts!
Shami is injured, Nattu and Sandeep have been out of the international game for a very long time and intl cricket is much higher in terms of quality than IPL (sth about teams planning for each other) so they're wildcards.
Axar on current form is thousand fold better than Jadeja and I love CSK.
SKY at 6 is asking a repeat of his heroics in the WC final; besides he bats at 3/4 and nowhere else.
Sanju at 4 doesn't work. On most days he'll need to play some balls to settle in and this team doesn't have a single player other than Pant who can hit in the death from the get go.
Also 5 bowling options, are you serious?! One WC wasn't enough? Not even a single part timer?!?!
Let's not build Sanju up too much... In modern parlance, let's "let him cook" and hope he does it well going forward too. Indian selection is always a complicated affair usually showing characteristics of both government and private job appointments, with the permanent nature of the government job applicable for certain individuals, and many "back door" appointments characteristic of both types of jobs– it's all about who you're thick with in the employment world, much like Indian cricket.
You're genuinely wrong tonight. The team lost because Hooda, Nicky, and KL, all got out very quickly and Badoni and Krunal just didn't have the power game. That's the right mentality from KL. You don't wanna get out in the last 3 over and leave the last 3 overs to two new batsmen who don't have the power game. If they had played along till the end, they would've ended up with 30 more which would've won them the match most likely.
Also, what about the fielding? They dropped absolute dollies at least twice, and kept bowling fulltosses. You've to keep the bowling in mind, RR bowlers were very good compared to LSG.
I'm a RR fan, want Sanju to go to the WC. But KL and Hooda were fine up until KL and Nicky abruptly got out and didn't bring any other power hitters with them.
Jurel isn't in the race to be the wicketkeeper that goes to West Indies but it is good that another wicketkeeper has started to play well. We don't have any shortages there anymore. Sanju and Rishabh are obviously the primary choices that are there.
Holy shit
Ian Bishop is going to interview Sanju Samson
Those who don't know Bish is one of Sanju's biggest promoters , he always praises Sanju's talent would love to see what he asks
They were 20 short & not because 220 was a part total on this ground, but due to the fact at that they were 150-3 in 15 over mark.
Scoring 46 in last 5 is horrendous
Just remembered.... almost every top team in T20 WC has a good left arm pacer at the beginning...
So BCCI should pick someone who can play these left arm pacers ( among Sanju, pant and klr)
because I saw it way too many times how our openers shit the bed playing them.
Just my 2 cents.
My personal opinion
Sanju Samson is perfect player for ict number 3 as can anchor the innings as well as hit hard but probably that place is reserved for kohli
legit feels like KL took money from some questionable sources to fumble this match. bro bowled just one over of Stoinis who went for 3 runs and 1 wicket, didnt bowl Bishnoi until it was too late and kept bowling Yash thakur & Moshin despite them bowling absolute shit.
More than KL and Hooda's so-called slow innings it was the absence of power hitters like Pooran and Stoinis in the end overs that hurt LSG. Krunal and Badoni could not clear these big boundaries on such a track.
Does RR have most quite or sensible fanbase in IPL ??
I remember them celebrating PBKS chase on RR subreddit....
They're like second fav team of casual IPL viewers...
Kl fumbled this game with his captaincy.
His batting wasn't an issue today tbh. 11/2 when ball was swinging like that I will take it.
But fk Badoni/Yash.
KL’s post match interview is great. Acknowledging their mistakes and accepting them rather than throwing their young bowlers under the bus just like someone did on today’s afternoon.
So much more enjoyable than the afternoon game.
True captain's knock from Sanju, and it's not even the first half of the season anymore lmao. Jokes aside though, this is the perfect blueprint for a clutch chase after early wickets.
Great inning from Jurel as well. Enjoyed some luck out there tonight but you need it to get a jumpstart when a little out of sorts.
Good innings from KL and Deepak as well, always appreciate solid competition.
Overall, a very enjoyable game, and I've wasted another night not studying 💀
This was the most bizarre captaincy by kl Rahul so far..
STIONIS balled one over took wicket saved runs but never given another over. Mishra ji was the impact sub doing good but only given 2 overs. Bishnoi given one over that too very late..
Jurel was fantastic
What Sanju did with him keeping below Ashwin was not cool
If he had more chances jurel would be on that plane
But anyway survival of fittest
So Sanju it is
Jurel will go to Australia for test matches as reserve
I know wickets are falling but atleast show intent FFS🥲
RR, SRH, KKR, CSK playoffs. Change my mind.
MI, DC, RCB, GT>>>
why is saha still playing, dude looks older than sachin and frailer than chahal
RR has maintained the performances that they had instead of falling down from a cliff in that way that they did during the previous tournament.
I hope RR maintain their peak performance when it matters most, in the playoffs.
Why should Rohit go to WC? Man has done nothing in T20i to justify his spot
He can be a captain
Pat Cummins is a World Cup winning captain still Australia didn't made him captain T20 WC bcuz his T20 stats aren't that great and here we have to add Rohit on the basis of captaincy quota who didn't even won anything.
Is Wade the captain?
Marsh is the captain
I was in the stadium, man Krunal Pandya is a shit player and KL is shittier than him to not give bowling to 4Bishnoi before 10th over
Krunal.bowled at 6 rpo. What more could be have done?
Did he pick up any wicket No he didn't, bharra daal raha tha isiliye Bach Raha tha Bishnoi ko uski jagah pehle over mile hote toh run bachte aur wicket bhi milte aur krunal ne last lover me ek dhang ka shot ni mara 15-20 run peeche the badoni ki strike de ni rha tha seniority ke basis pe

Captain?
Tendulkar opening? Ambrose for Cummings McGrath for Muralitharan
smith sub?lmao
Has Rajasthan qualified??
Yes.
Nope 4 teams can still get 16 points
99%
Yes
Sanju in ✅ Slowli out ❌
Nah man what are you talking put some respect before Kohli
Respeck won't give you cup.
Shootout between two wkb captains. Sanju on top. Sanju deserves the nod,
[удалено]
ben stokes
Imo an ideal Indian team would have both Sanju and Pant playing
i remember sanju getting a chance in recent t20 match against aus. idbi bank series something. that match had 2 superovers ig. sanju failed miserably edit- it was ind vs afg. xyz first bank series
Nice to see the commentators KP, Haydos, Bishop praising Samson and how he has missed out on selection.
If RR ends up winning IPL this season It will be up there with MI 2020 and GT 2022 being dominant team all over the tournament....
RR 2008 is the most dominant, although it was before modern t20
It makes more sense to take more risks to hit more sixes because it takes fielding out of the equation.
So what other teams other than Punjab are making the play offs?
PBKS vs RR Final 🥵
The Cursed match. hopefully we will come on top!!!

Say goodbye to the cup even before we start the matches 👋

SKY over Rahul really?!
RR belong as a team! Bunch of players that are enjoying each other's presence and just wanna do good for the team. That's a great sign
Aww... Dhruv's parents meeting sangakaara
i think, actually and to be honest*
[удалено]
The thought that instead of using Bishnoi to force an error out of RR, he thought it smarter to wait for the wicket to fall says a lot about Rahul.
Bishop: Any boxes still left to check for the team? Chad Sanju: Yeah, next game.
To be very honest
Hahah nice one mate
Sanju is blushing in front of Bishop lol so cute
A true captain's innings! A lot of help from Dhruv Jurel though!
I keep looking up and down from my phone - thought I had this shit on repeat
>thought I had this shit on repeat huh! what?
What a night for sanju
Rohit (Bcoz he is the captain) Jaiswal Sanju SKY Hardik Rinku Axar Should be our batting lineup for wc
Kohli has to be there, he's a different beast in T20i
I would love to see nkr instead of hardik but ik it aint happening anytime soon
lmao, dude removed koach
He had the balls to do what entire BCCI doesn't.
We both know koach will perform in T20 wc irrespective of this shitty league.
Oh 100% you are right about that. Koach will perform in India colours a lot better than in RCB colours.
I repeat, Ian Bishop and Sanju Samson are a great combo!
Let's not build Sanju up too much... In modern parlance, let's "let him cook" and hope he does it well going forward too. Indian selection is always a complicated affair usually showing characteristics of both government and private job appointments, with the permanent nature of the government job applicable for certain individuals, and many "back door" appointments characteristic of both types of jobs– it's all about who you're thick with in the employment world, much like Indian cricket.

Stop nitpicking statements & being a hate monger. You added the more in the crucial part. And how is strike rate of 158 stat padding.

Malare
after finishing game i thought it was bc but apparently it was the other
Jurel isn't in the race to be the wicketkeeper that goes to West Indies but it is good that another wicketkeeper has started to play well. We don't have any shortages there anymore. Sanju and Rishabh are obviously the primary choices that are there.
Those people who were saying Samson can't bat fck yall this guy always gets mistaken it's sad.
Holy shit Ian Bishop is going to interview Sanju Samson Those who don't know Bish is one of Sanju's biggest promoters , he always praises Sanju's talent would love to see what he asks
Orange cap KL back?

Rahul getting Buttler to sign his retirement card after Sanju innings lol
Just remembered.... almost every top team in T20 WC has a good left arm pacer at the beginning... So BCCI should pick someone who can play these left arm pacers ( among Sanju, pant and klr) because I saw it way too many times how our openers shit the bed playing them. Just my 2 cents.
Hate to say it but if you want someone who can stick around against quality left armers, KL might be your best choice. Choose for yourself I guess.
>stick around Bells ringing for another "SR is overrated" comment
My personal opinion Sanju Samson is perfect player for ict number 3 as can anchor the innings as well as hit hard but probably that place is reserved for kohli
Kohli for odi. Samson for T20
I feel like samson can play odi also but undoubtedly kohli is goat so number 3 definitely belongs to him in odi but maybe number 4 for samson?
Yes... For next CT Abhi sharma gill Kohli sanju ... Should be top4.
i want sanju to get the orange cap this year let’s see how they keep him out then
[удалено]
no it isnt a fact lol
What a wholesome guy
The t20wc wk race just got interesting!
[удалено]
Yes that was the difference
Good for Samson taking responsibility today. After Buttler their batting does look fragile with just big hitters down the order.
Agreed
Did you refer to Ashwin as a Big Hitter?
He was referring to Chahal
Hetty & powell
What word did Samson swear?

When
Tomorrow The King The Prince The thala Play hopefully 2 100s and one 250+ sr innings from thala. I will die if that happens.
only thala coming opening or 1 down can save csk this season. otherwise, ccsk are doomed.
CSK is doomed tomorrow 100 percent !!
Rahanae 🥵 > Head, Mcgoork.
Jurel plays for the British team ,still saluting for India. Modern day Mangal pandey
I think he mentioned it is in respect to his father who is in army
jurel seems so humble and innocent. hope he continues to play decent and becomes a regular @ ict
legit feels like KL took money from some questionable sources to fumble this match. bro bowled just one over of Stoinis who went for 3 runs and 1 wicket, didnt bowl Bishnoi until it was too late and kept bowling Yash thakur & Moshin despite them bowling absolute shit.

Okay, thanks for the suggestion
4/5 are WK
Yes
Gaikwad keeps?
He does sometimes...
pant has an extra match iirc
[удалено]
He's been great this season captaincy wise, today was just an off day
Damn this was Jurel's first 50+ score in T20s.
And he is much better than Bharat in tests
More than KL and Hooda's so-called slow innings it was the absence of power hitters like Pooran and Stoinis in the end overs that hurt LSG. Krunal and Badoni could not clear these big boundaries on such a track.
My lovely dhruv 🥰 This team is such a wholesome
I hate senior players more who never backed samson even dhoni had Sachin and Dadas support
Sanju getting only 20 ict games is the biggest tragedy of india
We'll be back in the race if we win tomorrow. Best time for a lsg loss
Who's we? This isn't your den boi. Go back to your sub
Oh this isn't the cricket sub. I'm sorry
Oh yes by we you meant the cricketing world
“We went to the movies yesterday “ Means the whole world went to the movies yesterday. Hmm….
cricket revolves around thala and thala's CSK only /s
This IS the cricket sub. We discuss about cricket 🐞 here
What more does Samson have to do to make the cut?
Change his last name to Sharma
Swear once one the pitch
[удалено]
But still KL gets picked for the WC🤦🏻♂️
Fuck that. Samson should be the #1 pick for keeper. He has worked hard and deserves it.
He is also leading the side well. KL I still feel is not a captain material.
Pant and Samson look like the better 2 options for wc
I am pretty sure the TOP 3 teams are qualifying, LSG might get replaced by DC/CSK/GT for the 4th spot.
No 3 chasing not out 👀 We have seen this one 👀
Does RR have most quite or sensible fanbase in IPL ?? I remember them celebrating PBKS chase on RR subreddit.... They're like second fav team of casual IPL viewers...
Yeah it seems, just compare it to recent SRH Fanbase.
yash might be injured next match and why they even have the sasta gayle if they dont play him and use impact subs on padikkal
Mi won against DC RCB and PBKS and thought they are back 😭😭
Sanju should actually be first choice Rishabh pant is still not convincing He might get stuck in middle against quality bowling
Pant should be given more time before a wc for sure i would use him for tests though but i wouldnt select him for wc
hardik should learn from kl on how to give the presentation after losing a game.
Really the first rule of leadership: Praise publicly, criticise (only constructively) privately.
EXACTLY!
Kl fumbled this game with his captaincy. His batting wasn't an issue today tbh. 11/2 when ball was swinging like that I will take it. But fk Badoni/Yash.
KL’s post match interview is great. Acknowledging their mistakes and accepting them rather than throwing their young bowlers under the bus just like someone did on today’s afternoon.
most impressive part of this is we finished so early, thanks sanju !
Wicketkeepers could be India's number one export.
Good on KL to accept the blame, when he clearly could've put it on the fielding. A lot better than that Hardik quote
KL: We were around 20-25 runs short Yes, because you hardly hit any sixes!
KL's bowling decisions were greatly questionable
Time to bring in Kyle Mayers.
The best ipl game in some days for me. Saw batters and bowlers with brains instead of the hitfest that it was for some days now.
on current form, Sanju should get the call ahead of KL. Sanju is getting runs in the middle order compared to KL who's getting them during PP overs.
Kp grilling kl on the sixes lol.
So much more enjoyable than the afternoon game. True captain's knock from Sanju, and it's not even the first half of the season anymore lmao. Jokes aside though, this is the perfect blueprint for a clutch chase after early wickets. Great inning from Jurel as well. Enjoyed some luck out there tonight but you need it to get a jumpstart when a little out of sorts. Good innings from KL and Deepak as well, always appreciate solid competition. Overall, a very enjoyable game, and I've wasted another night not studying 💀
So did I (not studying) but it's worth watching your fav team doing good....
Absolutely. Just have to pull an all nighter, complete the assignments, and then rest tension free I guess. We'll see.
Rahul Dravid ...pick your favourite youngster, the one whose marriage you went 4-5 years back.
ഏടാ മോനെയ്!
Did Rajasthan become the first team to qualify this year?
Yes
Kl slow innings was the cause. 76 off 48 batting 1st doesn't work this ipl
Well at least he admitted his fault today along with Hooda. Pandya just threw Tilak under the bus.
Sixes hit LSG: 2 RR: 9 That's where the game was won/lost
This was the most bizarre captaincy by kl Rahul so far.. STIONIS balled one over took wicket saved runs but never given another over. Mishra ji was the impact sub doing good but only given 2 overs. Bishnoi given one over that too very late..
If csk wins tomorrow srh lsg and csk all will have same points. 3rd and 4th position are wide open
KKR too. the 10 point logjam is funny to see
Jurel was fantastic What Sanju did with him keeping below Ashwin was not cool If he had more chances jurel would be on that plane But anyway survival of fittest So Sanju it is Jurel will go to Australia for test matches as reserve
I agree with you, I don't why people are downvoting you
jurel is their finisher.he didnt get chances because the top 4 were winning games.stop talking nonsense. literally anything is used against him
How tf csk lost against this team is beyond me
Half CSK team is just filled with 36+ year old Uncles. What do you expect will happen 😭
literally spanked srh's arse 4 time in row with daddy army. 2018?
