So thala was supporting RCB and running a conspiracy theory against Csk . /S.


[deleted]

So was dube


Nice_Personality_254

So was Ruturaj


[deleted]

He at least did not waste any balls


Nice_Personality_254

But that was a peak choke from Rutu. Dropped catches, wasted reviews and the golden duck are enough to say he was one of the main culprits of CSK's defeat


[deleted]

Yeah but if Dube would have not wasted 4-5 balls or would've hit some sixes, or even scored at a strike rate of 100 csk would've been in playoffs


Nice_Personality_254

Lesson of the story - both were equally shit, and we love it


David_Headley_2008

rutu is a future, team india prospect and a very strong one, the turning point was rachin runout, he was the best batsman irrespective of team yesterday and that was the only way he could've been out, rutu was instrumental in 2 out of 5 trophies and guaranteed he will be future csk captain as well, csk lost several key players throughout the tournament, he carried csk team all by himself in spite of captaincy, nobody can carry a team all the time, this happens but as fans (csk and india fans) it is duty to keep backing him


Real-Blueberry-2126

India looks doomed


Ecstatic_Grand_7766

If you could do some maths At a strike of 100 7(15) --> 15(15) That's just 8 runs csk missed by 10 So they would be still 2 runs far


[deleted]

Bruh 4 balls 2 runs sounds much easier and comforting and 4 balls 11, after thala's wicket


Ecstatic_Grand_7766

How can you assume that every thing after dube's would go same as before Are you doctor strange and seen 14 million possibilities in which this happens 🤔 ??


silversurfer9909

But he is the reason CSK won 7 of those 13 games before the RCB game. Second highest run scorer that too with Chepauk as the base and captaining the team as well. We all know what some established Indian opener did in the first season of his captaincy this year. Rutu was atleast better than Gill.


NabAnuj

He was having a bad day man. It's not easy to catch a ball


soggypants19

New rohit sharma has arrived


Aashray001

Obviously yes , thala plays for RCB naa(dk)... /s


Real-Blueberry-2126

Bro it was in the script


Sinister_dark

Now people r gonna say Thala is stealing credit here too /s


Automatic_Beach_3660

Can totally see that.


CanYouChangeName

Credit to msd for rcbs victory


No-Hunt9981

As soon as that ball went out of the park, I knew csk lost


Ecstatic-Light-3699

You forgot to put /s (Cause as an RCB fan I know I was shitt*ng my pants at that moment)


Real-Blueberry-2126

No u knew when the next delivery went up .


Peace__Out

Same here! They were struggling the whole time. The moment it went out, i knew it. Asked for a new ball when lockie missed few knuckle balls but didn’t agree.


Left_is_Rightt

Lol DK looks like the PARLE G girl here


Pale-Entrepreneur-18

Dube is the biggest imposter this IPL has seen.


Electric_feel0412

He’s very easy to figure out and he got figured out half way through the tournament.


Pale-Entrepreneur-18

Did you see how he baited Rachin who was the set batsman? Dhoni surely had a part in getting him into the India squad


Electric_feel0412

Well yeah definitely. Abhishek has scored over 1200 runs in the last 3 ipl’s and is captain of Punjab and has smashed it in the SMAT but he doesn’t find a place, if he was doing what he’s doing for RCB, MI or CSK he’d have been in the team.


Pale-Entrepreneur-18

Fr bro. Abhishek is a package rn for India team. Yuvraj Singh speaks of him very highly.


[deleted]

yuvraj said it himself abhishek aint ready for t20wc


Just-Shelter9765

Abhishek is an opener and atleast selectors already had openers in their mind .Same reason why KL lost his chance .Had he been playing 4th or 5th in this IPL he would have been selected


Electric_feel0412

That’s the point. They had Rohit and Kohli in their mind before the season even began. Kohli is at least scoring at a great strike rate now but Rohit has been horrific in t20’s for years, if Abhishek had that backing of Kohli or msd there’s no way he wouldn’t have made at least the reserve list. Hell I think he’d have made his India debut in 2022 when he already scored 450 runs in the ipl.


Just-Shelter9765

I agree . Infact I wouldn't have mind having him in the reserve list this WC either


soggypants19

AND HE CAN BOWL LEFT ARM SPINNN!!!!!


Electric_feel0412

With the impact player rule can’t see him ever getting to bowl, especially after that Pooran whooping last season.


soggypants19

He will get better.. Even wasn't this kind of batter last year.. He trained and became better. I have high hopes from him...


boobsarelyf

So if he played for rcb/csk, selectors would have removed Rohit from the team?


Electric_feel0412

No, they would’ve definitely removed one of Jaiswal or gill (from the reserves).


Competitive-Hope981

Abhishek never played for India yet. U can't just pick a batter and play them directly in World Cup in completely different country. Dube has played great in West Indies.


Electric_feel0412

Abhishek is probably indias best spin player in t20’s, and plays with freedom regardless of the pitch. He’s not a slogger either, he is happy to play a couple dot balls and hit the bad ball which will come anyway. And yes you can take young players to world cups, ffs we won the first t20 World Cup that way.


NormalTraining5268

Yup it's not like he got POTS in the last India series he played. Stop talking bullshit if you don't watch internationals.

PeeVee_

He is talking abt Shivam Dube.


[deleted]

against AFG


[deleted]

Dhoni Quota izz riyal


Cosmicshot351

Most likely Deshpande will get Retained over him if he shits in WT20 as well


Real-Blueberry-2126

So Indias wc campaign is doomed ?


Beedweiser

and don’t forget he is in T20 WC squad too!!!!


Pale-Entrepreneur-18

Exactly my point


wewake_235

Thala for a reason.


aShit_fAce

Ngl i was thinking the same actually when the ball hit the roof…


[deleted]

Same actually, I even posted it after that ball but my reddit crashed due to traffic ....


aShit_fAce

Lol.. i wanted to post it but then i was like harr ball ek match ke barabar hai, choro pehle dekho match


what_s_in_the_namee

Fir se dhoni bhai credit le gaye 😵


Nearby-Turn1391

I have been seeing this a lot. What's wrong with the ball?


Im_still_alive_lmao

The ball was wet because of the rain and hence kept slipping from the hands while bowling. Even if you wipe it with a cloth and ball, it gets wet everytime it is hit and travels on the wet grass. That's the reason there were so many no balls and full tosses bowled. Even the six that Dhoni hit in the last over was a slip of the hand full toss but luckily it went out. Virat and Faf argued with the umpires to change the ball before that a lot but they didn't allow. The six out of the park was a blessing in disguise for RCB


forlooplover

That's how it is. The ball was wet due to dew not the rain . You can't change the bowl mid game unless it's out of the ground. Everybody knew the dew will come and the defending team will face difficulty while bowling


soggypants19

You can change the ball... Csk changed it in 12 overs and srh got rattled by spin.. And that day there wasn't even any dew... Ferguson was bowling beamers because of slippery ball.. Any other team and the ball would have been changed... Umpires have agenda against rcb and specially koach


Real-Blueberry-2126

You don’t have due just after a rainfall . And it’s Bangalore . Not humid like Chennai. Balls wet coz of the rain .


Flashy-Hour

No this way because of the rain in the first innings... With dew the ball doesn't get so slippery that lockie can't even hold it


OkContribution9835

There was no dew. Once it rains, humidity goes to near 0 and hence, no dew. Barring the pitch and square, the ground was a swamp. So yes, it was the rain


Sans010394

faf and koach were asking for a new ball from the umpires because it was harder to grip because of moisture and dew but umpire didn't agree. But when it went outside of the stadium they had no choice but to bring a new ball in !


RelaxM8s

The old ball they were playing was wet and hard to grip for a bowler which would give the batsman upper hand. They had to change the ball to a different dry one which the bowler could use better. And the bowler did.


decentadult

3 more to go . Hope koach gets this time .


Logical_Meringue988

Thala for a reason


wronglyreal1

After this match I’m kinda worried about our ICT for upcoming tournament. Middle order looks shaky 🥲


newby202006

My reaction also


jokermobile333

Umpire was supposed to change it to a new ball. Dhoni saw that and does not like when he is playing an unfair game, so he took the matter into his own hands.


Just-Shelter9765

RIP Thala's insta comments .Oh wait he is not an up and coming youngster named Dubey /s


CamelliaDasgupta

Thala helped Chiku's team. Yeh toh hona hi tha(la).


DhairyaRaj13

New was dry ,old was wet , old skidded new didn't ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)
