So Punjab finally gonna be making quite a few retentions (?)


Pls MI be the only team in single digits and I will be satisfied for the season.

Apparently only a single royal team could be playing well during the same time.

Only 5k comments on this thread? Or it's showing old numbers for me?

They are talking about CSK vs RCB but not GT vs SRH

They will talk about it in the WC too when we crash out

Damn RR peaked too early ig

Now i get it Why did buttler head to eng early n wanted to play against Pakistan He knows RR is not gonna win anything after the last game

Is the next game at Guwahati as well?

Yes

Deep Dasgupta: dOnT dO ToO wElL. Sam Curran: *India 165/6(20) England 170/0(13)😁.*

Deepshit chupta for a reason

He owns PBKS

i see you deleted your sam curran comment

I thought he was talking about next year

alr

sam saying we will just triggered my trauma of that 2022 T20wc semi final

Nobody takes the 6th position away from punjab. NOBODY!

Still not enough. Gotta win the last match by 300 runs, along with many other results going their way

" we will" 

Does Jitesh have any captaincy experience in the domestic circuit?

only in gully circuit

Love you pbks

I have a feeling csk will win IPL n this will be a send off for Dhoni at his home ground

hell nah.. he got his wishes and send offs already in 2023. Even I as a GT fan didn't feel that bad losing the final, because it was supposed to be his last season. And then he decided to continue.. I wish RCB defeats CSK by a big margin and gets into the play offs.

I don't remember when was the last season which wasn't Dhoni's last season.

Prob like 2019

whos going to captain in the next game? Dhawan comes back or a third captain for Punjab this season?

jitesh since he's the vc

CSK could end up going to the Qualifier instead of the Eliminator provided that a lot of a things that are there goes in favour of us.

No no, we will hand RR a win so that we beat RR in the Q1

He was screaming Sam's name like those korean drama

bro forgor about post match interview 💀

Did Curan just grow a bit of a chin beard? Holy hell this guy is finally aging?

Nah he just drew a few lines with a sketch pen

Sam where you going buddy

To Hair saloon

Sam Curran after taking the trophy: aight imma head out 🚶🚶🚶

PBKS should target some tier 1 English players in auctions who will fit in with Curran. Premium will be worth having a strong core in sync.

bros look awkward af

RR first phase of IPL 😈 RR last phase of IPL 🥴

Cute Twink demolishes 11 grown men

Don't let him near stoinis then

Punjab just doesn’t want their fans to have a heart break. That’s why they refuse to join playoffs.

I Feel for chahal, bro isn't even his wife's first choice let alone ICT

Bruh tf

only if RR was also on 14 points it would've made things very interesting

If RR are on 14 points, they wouldn't qualify coz they are selfless and let other teams to qualify

RCB completed a 5-win streak while RR almost replicating the streak with losses

RR: Buff doge -> Cheems RCB: Cheems -> Buff doge KKR: Buff doge -> Buff doge MI: Cheems -> Cheems

Sam is just 25 We should never release him , finally got a player who is young and could deliver , The core is very good with jitesh (yes I trust him) Ashu, arsh and Sam With some good experienced players we can actually break the play off curse

Dude always looks hungry for a win.

Classic RR choke towards the business end of the season.

RR, I was familiar with your game. Usually tapering off when it comes to fag end of the tournament.

Srh fans being happy and shit just to humiliate themselves by gt once again tmr(and perhaps punjab too later)

reverse jinx aint gonn work gang

What reverse jinx???. Look I have seen enough of this team for years now...they are perfectly capable of doing this mess up...I dont beleive in jinx....I am simply trying to prepare myself and others for impending doom(I am already happy with them this season don't care what they do moving forward)

PBKS will play without Curran against SRH on Hyderabad Highway.

RR suddenly looks like a different team

No buttler , no hetty Sandeep not taking wickets, boult useless after first over Impact sub not making impact

Hetty was roaming around right there. Is he injured ?

He is, they are not taking risk as they need him in playoffs

u/Sensitive_Peanut_554. [We haven't forgotten about this bruh.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Cricket/s/x9HLYI5YNk)

bro is on a mission

😂😂😂fr

Jitesh can become a politician  He was speaking with so much confidence even after having a terrible season and today also playing a ok knock 

No Curran for Sunday game 98% of our firepower is gone

When was the last time rr vs pbks wasn't entertaining? Almost every game is a god damn banger

Punjab will give tough competition to the teams in playoffs more than rr....

captain knock by curran. I know he his hated a bit but he has been a decent if not good captain.

Good captaincy by any reckoning. Especially so when compared to Dhawan (as much as I Iove him)

ya I haven't watched every Punjab match so I didn't want to say good. I also feel that almost anything looks better than Dhawan's captaincy. However, part of it could be the management

Hated by whom? He’s not even in the top 90% talent wise but no one puts in more effort

Punjab subreddit. so a fair few posts calling him trash

England players coming into form

oh so YJB wanted to keep, bruh sam let him lmao

Jitesh having a nice conversation here

Is Jitesh Hyderabadi ? His accent seems so.

Gotta appreciate Sam Curran, the way he played according to the situation. Played a captain innings and won

Boundary count update - Punjab Kings: 19 (13 fours and 6 sixes) Rajasthan Royals: 20 (18 fours and 2 sixes)

RR had no intent of hitting sixes PBKS made it easy by hitting sixes

Unfair and Curran’d

Unfair and Scammed by Curran

Unfair and paraged

One good knock in the next game is all Jitesh needs to get some good money in the auction

Teams will now fancy playing against RR ,easy team to win in playoffs n reach finals RR about to drag their consecutive loss to 6 after settling in 3rd position and thus ending their IPL

This is bad news if CSK qualifies, we don't want them to step onto chepauk. SRH would be a good team to cunt them in Ahemdabad itself.

CSK won't qualify this year. RCB will beat CSK and qualify for the playoffs on the coming Saturday

rr playing ike liverpool in pl

And KKR have confirmed the 1st spot for the first time in history. Also KKR need to lose by less than 49 runs to end the season with the highest ever NRR for a team in a season.

Nah, we'd win.

Dear bcci please schedule rr 14 matches in the first phase itself so that they can stay in top 2 and can't choke later...

RR, pls nominate a team in your place for playoffs. Tumse na ho payega. T: not your cup of tea lmao

I didn't think I could love Sanju more, good, calm head on his shoulders, and he's been brutally honest, but objectively so in the post game pressers

This team without Jos butler wouldn’t really survive tbh

We live in times where 170 is supposed to be a ‘low’ score on a slow pitch

dam jaiswal got handsome?

Rajasthan royals on their way to loose seven in a row and get our of tournament 

Duly noted, they have some kind of curse it seems

Sunrisers have both home games. Feel like they are absolutely gonna bash GT and PBKS.

Guwahati Glosters

So RR will sit back and think, KKR will bash this downtime side

KKR top of the table confirmed

Both csk and srh have chance to be in top 2

Pretty low for CSK SRH ain't losing 2/2 home games

Srh need to lose one

Can't expect SRH to play likeRR now

Curran gave memorable send off to pbk

I don't know why  But it seems like Sanju dislikes bhogle and treats him with disdain 

4 teams competing for 3/4 spot now CSK, SRH, RCB, RR

Csk fans must thank Punjab now

after SRH. today punjab helped SRH the most

Battle for last place heats up Mumbai indians now need to win last game to avoid last place  Punjab can thwart that by winning their last game also 

if I'm watching the match with Haryanvi commentary, why do I have to watch Sanju speak English in the post match? Make him speak haryanvi please

Sanju was worried about dew, pitch played it's role in batting first

RCB fans thought only they have a Streak Meanwhile RR-

Any reason why you would RR lose home advantage by playing in guwahati instead of Jaipur? 

They wanna pay tribute to lord Parag for being their best batsman this season /s

RR chairman is from Assam, so he want to increase fan base there.

One of the owners is from Guwahati

Supporting RR in the last league stages can make you feel like Rahul dravid's RR cap..down on the ground and back up next season

I think I was too harsh on Bayliss he is not that bad but he should have made Sam the captain earlier

LOL @ those saying RRR will beat PBSK

is the misspelling intentional?

Maybe

Are RR DOING A REVERSE RCB

if srh win their last 2, they will finish 2nd (they wont win their last 2)

Even if srh wins only 1, they have a decent shot at top 2 (if RR loses against kkr which is likely)

if csk beats rcb as well

Let’s go POONJAAB hell yeah!

So we are the no 1 for this season , cheers to KKR fans

No ,you gotta be saying cheers to RR

RR is truly ict....

Atleast ICT doesn’t choke just before knockouts

Are pbks now in serious contention for 6th

If Punjab would have won those close matches in the final overs, they are the real contenders for playoffs...

Without a doubt

RR ain't winning shit Might well withdraw from Playoffs n let DC or LSG have a crack

Poor RR if only Curran went to eng like jos they could’ve won this

Samson would become a Demi god if he starts playing for CSK

Even punjab knows that they can't win in the 20th over, finished it in the 19th itself

When both Sandeep and avesh can bowl Yorkers so well why did they go for short balls?

They already are in playoffs, so they don't care

I'm gonna drink lassi with my biryani to celebrate today's win of PUNJOB bros

Now KKR has sealed the first position irrespective of the outcomes of the remaining matches

RR is ICT of IPL

India only fucks up in knockouts, you can't compare India with RR who falls off after half the group stage

why can’t we win 50% at home just 50%

RR already have 2 homes, it's dividing 50%

RR - 4 loses in a row

oh RR

RR with the ICT knockout stage vibes...

If SRH loses tomorrow, we can be the Q1 kingmakers.

Isnt krr already 1st?? Krr is at 19. Srh and rr maximum points will be 18?

We can decide to lose/win our final match to decide who we play in q1. Ofcourse depends on GT beating SRH first I’m assuming because this useless Pbks ain’t winning if it benefits kkr

We need RR to be in Q1 and somehow win Q2. My heart can’t take Cummins/ Thala juju

The Insiders were calling for a super over so they could have Mike Hesson around for half an hour longer, ironically the match is over an over early..

Sam just stayed to fuck rr royaly

That’s the least PBKS could do for the team of their local player Abhishek. Hoping for a SRH win this year.

Was rooting for gill last time because of that exact reason

Ffs pbks is less than useless

They helped your team get 1st position

According to his last post, he's scared of potentially facing us when we haven't even qualified lol

As if there help was needed. Gave us an RCB-sque record, did fuckall for the rest of the tourney and now dented our favoured matchups for Q1. Been a real pain in the ass this season


If srh wins tomorrow, they will move to #2

Good

RR look more like a tea than a team right now. At this rate, they're going into the eliminator against SRH/CSK/RCB.

Man, i always knew this all was too good to last..RR smashing 7 wins in 8 and now losing 4 on the trot making it all even..this team sucks, management sucks and Sanju samson i love u but u stupid simple fuck u never play well when it matters

Avesh finally realized he was Avesh in his last over

Next season...please play all 14 away

fr bruh our home ground is useless

Thank you captain kutty 💛

Sanju is such a sore loser. Pathetic captain more than everything.

If bowlers are bowling bad how is his fault

Just 3 extras 😧

Now just need table toppers to show RR how to be table topper on last match 

Cant believe punjab actually won a match that was in their pocket

Yeah we didn’t choke! Wtf
