ChennaiSuperKings struggle after Hayden,Hussey return to Australian colours

The ChennaiSuperKings were considered the best team in the IPL after they won their first four matches. But this was mainly due to Hayden’s hard hitting and Hussey’s(often called Mr. cricket) magic with the bat. As soon they left to Australia the ChennaiSuperKings could not find replacements. The former NZ captain Stephen Fleming could not fit into Hayden’s big shoes. He was trying to hit the ball hard which is unlike him. He is a good player when he times the ball. Hence ChennaiSuperKings have not been getting good starts. Badrinath has done his best to fill Hussey’s spot but still Hussey is too big player to miss. The ChennaiSuperKings have a good bowler in Goni. Goni is more than handy with the bat. He won them a game against Delhi with his 10 runs of the last over. Suresh Raina and Dhoni have played really well. Murali could pick more wicket than he has done now.

Mumbai people expected sachins magic but it was sanath's fireworks

Sachins first IPL match was some thing to remember not for his batting but Jayasuriya’s batting. Jayasuriya hit a scintillating 45-ball 100 to take Mumbai to the target with ease. Sanath was really in a bad mood punishing every ball from the Chennaisuperkings bowlers. At a point of time even a dot ball was as hard as a maiden over such was his dominance. He was not even hitting 4s every hit of his was landing behind the ropes and most of the time in the stands. This happened after ChennaiSuperKings struggle to set paltry target. What this win does is it gives the Mumbai Indians a great chance as the their low net run rate got a great boost because of this innings from Sanath.

Shoaib Akhtar changes dadas fortune

The bad boy of pakistan cricket has give his new team a real chance to finish in the top four in the IPL league matches. He bowled his heart out to take four wickets. His first wicket was sehwag who would have taken the match even if he had been in the center for 2 overs. The score 134 was not a big total to chase but in came Akhtar. He got sehwag in his first over then gautham too. He also got AB de who tried to pull his short ball. He got 4 wickets in his 3 overs. This would be a great thing that happened for srk after all he was supporting him for a long time. Hope Akhtar performs well and keeps this team in the race for the semi finals berth.

When one looks at the names of the players in the Kings XI team we would expect the team to depend heavily on players like sangakara, SL captain Mahela Jayawardene and obviously sixer yuvi. But cricket is a funny game no one knows what may happen in a game. When we expect good knocks from the above three they have hardly had any chance to do so. It’s because of the great start that they get from Shaun marsh. He is in the top five leading run scorers in the IPL even though he has played only 5 matches compared to the 9 matches that the other batsmen have had. Hope he continues his good form.

A fuming ishant with a good attitude does it for india

Oz have done it again.The spat between symonds and ishant resulted in ishant being fined 15% of his match fees.But what was the outcome?? The already fast and accurate ishant was further encouraged to show his skills and how to respond after an icc hearing.The embedded video shows how ishant celebrates after a great ball to get rid of the opening batsmen perera.Isnt this a way to respect the ICC code of conduct??Can the so called greats like Ricky and Symo learn from this lanky young pacer?

Ricky the 4th umpire???

Ricky does it again.Well is Ricky the mastermind behind the Tricks??? We had seen in SCG how Ricky forced the on field umpire to have a talk with bajji.He said it was Racism now he complains of abuse.It is really funny to hear all this from an OZ.Oz have always used these cheap mind games to win battles when they dont find any other ways to win them.First target was harbajan singh.It was very surprising to see Oz attacking an out off form Harbajan.Did they get any thing out of that dirty exchange??? well may be symonds got his market value up.But what was the result?? it was obviously the indian victory at the WACA and Brand ricky taking a beating at the IPL auctions.Did the Gr8 oz captain learn his lesson??NO.Now he has again supported his team mate symonds instead of asking him to shut up.This time itz in form ishant.The next indo-oz match is the final.Can india deliver the knockout punch here??Can india teach symonds and ricky what cricket is??? Let us wait and watch

itz centurion kumble

Well all of us know how kumble bowls.so itz not possible for him to give away 100 runs.Then how is he a centurion???Guess what england has suffered a lot from indian batsmen.Its time for them to suffer from indian bowlers too.This time it is kumble who showed what a fighter he is.India now have a 600+ score on the board.Lets hope india makes it 2-0.

Giles calls it a day

The english left arm spinner has decided to retire from all forms of the game due to a hip injury he suffers due to which he suffers often.He was part of the england team which regained the ashes.He was unfortunately criticised for the 5-0 white wash that englang suffered at the hands of mighty ozzs.He is called as the king of spain.
