The last over of the match turned so expensive for Royal Challengers Bangalore. End of 19th over CSK has scored 154 runs. RCB might've expected a score around 165-170 runs, because Harsh Patel have bowled well in the first three overs giving 14 runs taking 4 important wickets. The last over took the score above 190. This itself a pressure for RCB. Jadeja made a fantabulous cricket.
Jadeja on his part, has played continuously for CSK ever since 2012 (with the exception of a two-year break when CSK was suspended). This is one of the advantages of CSK, as they have several players who are playing for them for almost a decade (MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina, Faf du Plessis and Dwayne Bravo are others). When half of the team is playing together for almost a decade, that helps with the team bonding and cohesiveness. But it also means that when someone is unavailable for a season, it becomes very difficult to replace that player (like what happened in 2020, when Raina was not available).
Yeah Jadeja seems big asset for Chennai Super Kings. Today I watch the match between Royal Challengers Bangaluru vs Chennai Super Kings and until 19th over of Chennai Super Kings, the watch was under Royal Challengers Bangaluru control and even when they started chasing 190+ score, until Virat Kohli got out, the match was in favor of Royal Challengers Bangaluru but when spin options were available, Jadeja started bowling and finish off everything in favor of Chennai Super Kings with wickets and fielding efforts. Honestly I am not seeing Jadeja playing this much fiery cricket for India Today is definitely belongs to him. Sir Jadeja can't do any wrong when he gets going. Batting, Bowling and Fielding, this sick bastard is everywhere. Virat should sing some cringe worthy song or bollywood dance in appreciation of Jaddu during Post match ceremony.

I was just watching the over with awe. Jadeja just single handedly destroyed the RCB bowling.
Ravindra Jadeja single handedly destroyed Royal Challengers Bangalore with the bat scoring 62 from 28 balls and when bowling he picked up three wickets and one direct hit run out and bowled economically. I thought it was going to be a good match up as two of the strong teams were battling but CSK dominated the match and they only need to pick 3 more wickets to win the match.He has picked three wickets as well (4-1-13-3), and that too of some of the most important RCB batsmen - Washington Sundar, Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers. Difficult to believe how the much turned out in the end, as we had RCB at 54/1 after 5 overs. The spinners made the difference for CSK. Ravindra Jadeja and Imran Tahir have combined figures of 8-1-29-5. RCB are now 103/9. CSK just one wicket away from a win.

Purple cap holder, Best economy rate in the death overs and also he conceded only 14 runs with 3 game-changing wickets from his first 3 overs but everything was trashed by Jaddu in the last over, and you know every six went to the same direction no matter what bowler changed with length and line, definitely this will be affecting RCB's confidence.192 on a day game is bit tough to chase even if it is Mumbai ground so my pick is still CSK as always.
I was just watching the over with awe. Jadeja just single handedly destroyed the RCB bowling. As you mentioned, all the sixes were hit towards the same direction. Perhaps this is an indication towards the immaturity shown by Harshal Patel. He could have changed his angle by going round the wicket. Rather than angling in towards the body, he could have bowled wider. In the end, CSK got to 191/4, when I was expecting them to end up with 160-170.

Ravindra Jadeja got a life when he was zero a
Daniel Christian is the lucky charm for every franchise all around the world (he's the only reason RCB winning these days ) So Virat should avoid any trash talk with him when in dugout. I also believe that Pakistan should win this final match and i have also placed the bet on them. The reason being that i don't think Pakistan team can lose two matched in a row with a weak team like Zimbabwe. I hope that upset wont happen today.
At this point it can go either way.
Zimababwe needs another 57 runs to win from 5 overs. The advantage for them is that they still have 7 wickets in hand, and two set batsmen are at crease (Brendan Taylor and Regis Chakabva). And also, a few experienced big hitters will be coming next - Sean Williams and Ryan Burl. If Zimbabwe manages to win this match (and thereby the series), it is going to be really huge for them.

That should be the general concept and it is impossible to see a good team loosing twice to Zimbabwe but since it is Pakistan you cannot predict exactly how the match will go. Ravindra Jadeja got a life when he was zero and now he is punishing the RCB bowlers smashing 4 sixes on a row and the cameo has taken CSK to a really good total and he is still continuing with his big hits and it is one hell of an incredible innings.
37 runs in the final over
Ravindra Jadeja is a super star and took the team to 191 runs. Pakistan is known for its inconsistency, they were on sky-high when they defeated SA and also overconfident against Zimbabwe. They should have taken this series seriously, I was on the impression that they would win all their matches against a weak team like zimbabwe but unfortunately they lost one. This will look very bad in the history of Pakistan cricket. I hope they play well from next match onwards.
Next match is the final T20 match between the two teams and its a decider of the series. It will be played tomorrow on Sunday. Pakistan should won this match because a loss would be a bigger upset for them. They will be in a lot of pressure too after the last match loss while Zimbabwe team will play with all the confidence they gain recently by wining.Most probably Pakistan will win the decider, It would be a great if they win convincingly. They have to get themselves together and forget about the last match if they want to win this one. They have created the pressure for themselves, if they had won the last match they would have played the last match without any pressure.

Today since it is a Sunday there are two matches in IPL. The first one is between CSK and RCB and the second one is between SRH and DC. I think the first match would be interesting to watch as if CSK wins they will be the top team till now in IPL and if RCB wins they, will continue to retain the top position. Second match I think DC will win as they are far better team than SRH.
The top order batsman of KKR started their batting slowly. Maybe their intention was to save the wickets at first few overs with decent run rate and make much runs from last few overs. But none of the top order batsman showed good batting performance. Russell came to the field after 15th over, at this point he had only one option, hit the ball for making boundaries cause total team score wasn't enough. He tried to do it but he failed. As I said before, KKR should bring some changes in their batting order.
At least Russell got a few overs to bat, but Cummins hardly got any. These two are the most powerful hitters for the Kolkata Knight Riders, and they need to bat higher up the order. Middle order batsmen such as Dinesh Karthik and Eoin Morgan are in very poor form and there is no point in sending them ahead of Cummins/Russell. And also, they need to rethink on their openers (Nitish Rana/Shubman Gill) after the repeated failures. Yesterday both the openers wasted a lot of balls.

Andre Russell should bat as an opener or in the top of the batting order rather than holding him back till the end and even Pat Cummins is a clean hitter of the ball and he should be promoted up the order, it looks like they are wasting the talent they have and Chirs Morris changed the game completely while Mustafizur Rahman was bowling really well in the other end that stopped KKR from posting a decent total .
I have not seen Andre Russel open the innings but he needs to come earlier and allow him to play his shots, today the KKR openers were really slow in scoring the runs and that made extra pressure on the other batsman as well and they failed miserably as well. Pat Cummins played a good innings in his last game and he was striking the ball well in this match too even though he was dismissed trying to score another six and they have plenty of stroke makers and rather than holding them back they need to give opportunities for these players. ~
This was one of the big upset and i never expected that to happened. The odds were in favor of Pakistan in the beginning of the match, so whoever took the risk and bet on Zimbabwe, you have got decent profits. That's why taking risk sometimes pay off and you can make good money from such matches.
Even if you bet when Zimbabe just scored 118 runs you would general think that Pakistan would easily chase the score as they are in the series after defeating South Africa and the odds would have been above 10 i assume.

Chris Morris's last 2 overs ruined the party for KKR and virtually won the game for his team. KKR need some fine bowling effort otherwise match is already gone for them.
KKR needs to do something and alter their batting line up altogether. Andre Russell should bat as an opener or in the top of the batting order rather than holding him back till the end and even Pat Cummins is a clean hitter of the ball and he should be promoted up the order, it looks like they are wasting the talent they have and Chirs Morris changed the game completely while Mustafizur Rahman was bowling really well in the other end that stopped KKR from posting a decent total .

Looks like RR will win the match easily. It is very difficult to win a match if the top order batsmen do not perform well. KKR's top order batsmen failed and Russell did not perform well. ~snip~
