After losing two matches in a row, Mumbai Indians are now playing against Rajasthan Royals. RR gave a target of 172 runs in 20 overs. Not a very big target. If MI's top-order batsmen perform well, then MI will easily win today. I would like to see a good inning from de Kock and Rohit Sharma.
Did anyone came across the news of Brett Lee donates bitcoin to Crypto Relief for India’s fight against COVID-19. More Australian Players have been supporting India get out of the worst situation. Now Bret Lee doing it in the form of bitcoin gives some exposure to cryptocurrency. Everyone have invested on cryptocurrency, whereas a little is known to the outer world.
Brett Lee did the right thing by donating in the form of cryptocurrency. There are powerful people in the government and bureaucracy, who want to ban cryptocurrency for their own selfish motives. With this transaction Brett Lee proved that cryptocurrency can be used for the benefit of those who are in need. In the social media, the news about the donation has gone viral and it will help the Bitcoin cause in India. And being an Indian, I am really thankful to both Brett Lee and Pat Cummins, for helping us in such an adverse situation.
@Vaskiy yes saw this news on my social feed, and it’s a kind move by him to donate for a cause but I wonder if those funds will actually help people as in India bitcoin is yet not legal. @Visnu.Reang I have spoken with my Indian friends who’re lawyers there, and they say that Bitcoin is going to get banned and nothing we do or say will change the government mind.

CSK back in form, I just checked the point table and saw them leading it. This was the team that struggled in the last IPL. RCB is another team that has been performing very well. I am surprised to MI struggling in this IPL. I hope they start performing soon, today they will be playing with RR.
CSK and RCB have surprised me with their performance so far. On the other hand, two of the franchises that played in the final of last year's tournament (Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals) seems to be performing very poorly. For DC, some of their best players are not available and it is understandable. But I am still perplexed with Mumbai Indians. All of their top players are available and still they are losing matches. Hardik Pandya is injured, but he's still playing as a specialist batsman. With such a star studded lineup, they are yet to perform according to the expectations.

However finally losing more wickets same score could've been reached. Star players can't be hero's of the game everytime.
Making the right decisions every once in a while will make them a star. Chennai Super Kings is the only team that is performing beyond my expectation and is lead by retired India player Ms Dhoni and yet every time he makes the right decision this season even though he is yet to perform with the bat and hence they are winning all the time. If you compare their last years performance it is a starking contrast with the way they are playing this seasonChennai Super Kings is winning. That is true, but I am yet to see any real contribution from Mahendra Singh Dhoni. So far has has made 37 runs from 6 matches, and then he dropped an easy catch from Jonny Bairstow yesterday. The changed fortunes of CSK can be attributed mainly to Suresh Raina and the other players and I don't think that Dhoni has played a large part as of yet. For CSK, Deepak Chahar has been in terrific form, and the same can be said about the two openers.

No need to replace Saha with Bairstow, there are lot of weak links in the middle order.
https://www.cricbuzz.com/profiles/1465/wriddhiman-saha He is not having huge average but apart from that he player over 120 matches with good strike rate of 130 which is much needed for them now especially his innings. Don't forget he even have a century in his IPL stats.

They can give one or two chances to Saha and see how it goes. Another option is Mohammad Nabi, but he is in poor form right now. Apart from these two, they don't have any players who can play a long innings in the middle order. Vijay Shankar is good for nothing, and Abdul Samad is more suitable for short bursts in the last 2-3 overs. Another option is Priyam Garg, but he doesn't have much experience in the middle order. Virat Singh was given a few chances, but he failed in all of them.
CSK back to the top of the table again with far better run rate who is also having the same 10 points now. This is the vintage CSK team and I watched the entire match which is completely amazed me. Warner the struggling man needs to think about finding the right combination inside their team because only 4 overseas players are performing for SRH and all the others were on the losing cause especially their middle order is very weak. Saha is on the bench for them who can be included in the middle order for better stability who player really some great innings for veruous franchise.
Wriddhiman Saha is not a specialist batsman. Since Jonny Bairstow is a better batsman, he fills that slot. You are right regarding the overseas players of SRH. All of them are in great form. But the issue is with the local players, especially the bowlers. None of the bowlers are able to provide any support for Rashid Khan. That's why the team management is trying different combinations. But right now, none of these bowling combinations are working for them.

SRH remains at the bottom of the table with just two points. Apart from Rashid Khan, their bowlers have failed. And Natarajan's absence is not helping things either.
Despite having star players like David Warner, Jason Roy, Williamson, Bairstow and Rashid Khan in the squad, SRH's poor performance is very disappointing. Despite having so many devastating and experienced batsmen in the squad, their highest run-score this season is 177 against KKR. And they lost that match too. I don't think Warner can do his job properly as a captain. Otherwise, despite having such good players, they would not have performed so badly.~

It is disappointing to see that they are still struggling to find the right combination, Chennai struggled during the last season and they changed their team by including some players and those changes are making wonders for them as they are now become the most dominating team yet again and leading the rankings table while teams like SRH, KKR, Punjab seems to fail to learn from the mistakes and still struggling to put the right combination of players.

That is what even i was thinking, David Warner is a shell of the players he once was, from a destructive batsman who could change the match by his sole performance he has not done that in the IPL for many season i believe and with T20 specialist players like Jason Roy, Kane Williamson, Bairstow and Rashid Khan they are struggling to win matches which is really disappointing and they need to change things pretty fast if they want to be competitive in the season.

CSK now again cruising towards their win to be honest, SRH didn't even took a single wicket while CSK just needs 72 from 54 balls.
Chennai Super Kings are now at second position in the points table, which is an amazing turnaround when compared to their situation during IPL 2020. Now they have 8 points from 5 matches. The Delhi Capitals also have 8 points, but they have played one additional match. For CSK, the next match is going to be against the Mumbai Indians. It is going to be a tough match, but given their momentum, they should be able to perform well. SRH remains at the bottom of the table with just two points. Apart from Rashid Khan, their bowlers have failed. And Natarajan's absence is not helping things either.

Rishabh Pant has batted exceptionally well so far in this tournament. But unfortunately, his captaincy is not up to the mark..
As a team, DC is much strong. They have batsmen like Rahane, Shikhar Dhawan, Hetmayre in their squad, their bowlers are good enough. But as a captain, I didn’t find Rishab Pant experienced enough. And the defeat in yesterday's match is living proof of that. Experienced bowlers must be used in the 18th, 19th, and 20th overs. I think it would have been better if Shikhar Dhawan was the captain
Rahane is not really T20 material and although Hetmeyer produced a really good performance in the last match, he is not in his best form. IMO, Delhi Capitals are struggling due to the absence of Shreyas Iyer. They are still unable to fill the vacuum created due to his absence. Steven Smith is now batting at no.3 for Delhi Capitals, and he is OK as far as performance is concerned, but his strike rate is a bit lower than what is optimal.
No one watching today's match?
