I can't really trust any of these matches. After all, a few years back two of the franchisee owners were caught for match-fixing (they were let off with very lenient punishments because one of the franchises were owned by N Srinivasan). But this particular match looked OK. Even if they want to fix the match, would they wait till the last 3 balls to do that? But agreed that KXIP should have sent in Mayank Aggarwal. That was a big blunder from their part.
It seems players are struggling with hot weather condition in the UAE, anyone noticed that? Because at the beginning scores started to rain in the beginning but after a while it looks too hard to score the runs.
Yeah that can be an issue the weather at this time is of the year is pretty hot their but, it can be also be the pitch.
I do not think matches are being fixed and why will the player or the franchise indulge in it they know what will happen if they are caught.
