Pakistan and South Africa 1st T20 match has started now and South Africa are batting at the moment. After the one day series win, Pakistan team should be confident and be looking to win the T20 series too. However, we can expect tight matches as Pakistani team love to make the matches dramatic. Wink

South African top 5 batsmen total T-20 experience is about 25ish game and inexperienced batting line up showing lot of courage against quality bowling. They are scoring at almost 10 runs per over, not bad at all. Shaheen still got 2 overs so let's see how their batsmen finish the inning,

Bangalore winning the opening match against Mumbai Indians was a big surprise. I thought that RCB had zero chance, but they proved me wrong. BTW, it was some of their new additions who made the difference. During bowling, it was Kyle Jamieson (who got the wicket of Suryakumar Yadav), and while they were batting, it was the new addition Glenn Maxwell who added the most crucial runs. Still would have lost the match, if not for the cameo by AB de Villiers towards the end.

Although I did not make any bets in this match, I enjoyed the match. It was a very exciting match. The excitement lasted until the last ball of the innings. If Boult had not digested so many runs in the 19th over, Mumbai Indians might not have lost. Hopefully, Mumbai's bowling lineup will be more stable in the next match.

Trent Boult is a very good bowler, but he is extremely unsuitable for the depth overs. He concedes way too many runs and can't get his variations right. This has happened again and again during the IPL. Mumbai Indians should bowl him out before the last powerplay. Boult conceded 15 runs in the 18th over, and that was the turning point (and this happened when Kyle Jamieson was batting with AB de Villiers). And more importantly, he conceded a single of his last bowl, which allowed de Villiers to keep strike. Before that over, 34 runs were needed from 3 overs with only tail enders giving company to de Villiers.

Yeah, Trent Boult is a very good bowler, there is no doubt about it. But he is not as specialist as Bhumrah. More experienced bowlers are needed to bowl in depth overs. Boult is not that much-experienced bowler. We have seen before that he bowled in depth overs and gave many runs. Mumbai Indians need another bowler with Bumrah to bowl in depth overs. This is the weak point of their team.

Both teams are equal in all fields as they have good power hitters good bowlers and batsmen but usually RCB chocks in middle of tournament and MI will fight back because have history of good fights after struggling in early matches and RCB is going completely opposite of this but this time they have good start from star players specially Maxwell. So hopefully we will have some very good and interesting matches without Covid-19 cases.

Yes mate you are right both teams has been looking good and I can't predict the match between Mumbai and Bangalore until last ball but finally Bangalore has been won the first game as traditional.

This is just the beginning MI will come back. RCB did playbwell as compared to MI no doubt but knowing MI they are again the favourites this year too. I expected a score above 200 by the MI but it is just a game.

The only bad thing is Pollard is on the crease...

Pollard did not do anything, who was the bowler who bowled the last over, Harshal Patel i am seeing his for the first time and the way in which he bowled was incredible and RCB surprised with Washington Sundar opening the batting and i was a great move as he has the ability to swing the bat and it looks like they are open to experimentation and they might try to win the match.

I saw that Pollard came just yesterday to join with the team after quarantine that is probably one of the reason but in general he is one of the deadliest current batsmen in the death overs especially in T20 format.

Good to see that RCB playing good second innings as well and Maxwell is scoring runs with no hurries can he do this throughout the season?

Edit :

Kohli gone, RCB needs 62 from 45 balls which is very easy in T20.

RCB needs only 7 runs in the last over. De Villars played a great inning of 45 runs off 24 balls. He is still undefeated. Hopefully, he will be able to bring victory to the RCB team. Lets see what will happen.

Edit : last ball, RCB needs only 1 runs.

RCB has made it. The interesting part of the match is the final over without a four/six. Each ball got run to RCB and that is the success. RCB has started with a win and MI lost its first match. Both teams equally strong in performance based on today's match, because both teams are playing away from the home ground.

The first match lived up to the expectations of the uncertainty of the IPL, when ABD got out i though Mumbai Indians will pull this match but in the end RCB somehow manage to win the match. Mumbai showed that they have the bowlers to trouble any team and RCB has shown signs of breaking down in the end even though they were in a good position at one point.

Nail biting last moments in the final over, I thought everything over when ABD got run out bat Harshal managed to get some runs with his bats and ensured their win in the last ball of the match and this is the first time ever RCB winning an opener since the IPL.

But MI made a great comeback, even their worst day is not going to let the opponent team to take the win so easily.

Unbelievable last over by Harshal towards the end. Just 1 run and 3-4 wickets is phenomenal and a rare occurrence in the world of Cricket. RCB dropped a couple of catches and still managed to screw MI towards the end.

MI will have to bowl really well to defend such an average target against a powerful RCB batting line-up.

Expecting competitive wicket (spin) for the 1st game, would be great if its average scoring game but if its road then 200+ score is on the cards for sure and both teams got some fine power hitters in the middle order (Pandaya, Pollard, AB, Maxwell). My money on RCB.

As I predicted the pitch looks flat and MI had a great start but after 12 overs RCB made good comeback.with back to back wickets. At one point MI looks to reach 200 with no worries but now scored 152/5 and still 9 balls left in their innings.

The only bad thing is Pollard is on the crease...

Absolutely brilliant bowling by RCB. Harshal Patel took five wickets and become first bowler in IPL history. RCB bowlers taking 4 wickets in last over, some extraordinary bowling displayed. It turns RCB batsmen, how they will manage 160 runs. Let's see.

IPL 2021 is finally set to start today people. It's just been a couple of months since the last edition and I can still remember MI lifting the trophy vividly. My wild prediction is that SRH or RCB will lift the trophy this year.

As long as COVID-19 doesn't screw things up, this will probably be one of the most entertaining editions of the IPL so far.

I bet on MI in their opening encounter against RCB primarily due to their in-form players. Excited to watch Maxwell's performances in RCB. Am also curious about whether Arjun Tendulkar gets to play in the main squad or not.

But this time both team are playing away from their home ground so this could be more interesting to watch, Chennai pitch normally assist spin bowling but in the recent matches we had seen it as more flat pitch so we can assume that this match also can be played on such pitch. So the opening match will be a high scoring game in my opinion but RCB got got Chahal who can be more effective on such pitches while MI loaded with full of talents in their batting lineup.

Expecting competitive wicket (spin) for the 1st game, would be great if its average scoring game but if its road then 200+ score is on the cards for sure and both teams got some fine power hitters in the middle order (Pandaya, Pollard, AB, Maxwell). My money on RCB.

By the way RCB won the toss and choose to bowl first. I guess Virat is confident that they will be able to chase the score. Ishan kishan and Surya Kumar Yadav are the batsmen to look for in the first session.
