I guess I will not be surprised if I will be seeing KKR is the first team to disqualify for play-offs of 2021 IPL; I am sorry, they are playing like that.
The team management is also responsible for the current position of KKR. Despite the failure of some players in every game, they haven't brought much changes in their playing eleven. If the management doesn't give a perfect eleven to play then the captain has nothing much to do. Although Eoin Morgan have some fault in his captaincy as well. And I agree with your last statement, there would be nothing to surprise if it happens.

Eoin Morgan's captaincy for the IPL tournament needs some special treatment to get back the momentum like how he did for England's short format games.

I guess I will not be surprised if I will be seeing KKR is the first team to disqualify for play-offs of 2021 IPL; I am sorry, they are playing like that.
The problem with Kolkata Knight Riders is their team management who does not know how to pick their perfect team and the captaincy of Eoin Morgan is a big failure. In today's game he kept Pat Cummins till the end overs and if he was bowling from the start he would have given the breakthrough  and the batting line up is a mess and their openers Nitish Rana and Shubman Gill are playing at a really low strike rate which is not helping them either.

Then why they have been asked to play again and again when its clear that they are not giving the start for the team, at least shuffling the positions may change something but KKR doesn't want to do anything, all they are doing is just dragging their innings and the season as well. Eoin Morgan was one of the best current active captain but he is not doing well in IPL, does he have any hindrance from the franchise side to apply his tactics?

DC vs KKR, at the end of first innings KKR scored only 154 which is below par in my opinion so they need to bow extraordinary to win this match while DC started with furious approach of 25 runs at the end of the first over. Shocked  6 fours from prithvi shaw along with one wide.
They already had below par score and i think KKR already lost the momentum after those 6 back to back 4s in the first over. This really look like a great pitch to bat on and KKR messed up their inning big time. Time for serious soul searching for KKR's batters.
In my view, KKR already lost their momentum for the entire IPL 2021, it seems like Shocked. They are not at all showing any intenet to score high and their top and middle order problems are still continuing into today's match as well. Eoin Morgan's captaincy for the IPL tournament needs some special treatment to get back the momentum like how he did for England's short format games.

I guess I will not be surprised if I will be seeing KKR is the first team to disqualify for play-offs of 2021 IPL; I am sorry, they are playing like that.

Mumbai Indians have such habit, they perform very bad in the first half of their tournament then they will go to the top 4 with do or die situations and won the trophies as well so its not surprising for me about MI performances.

Rajasthan Royals scored 171 runs. But I thought they would score at least 190 runs. All the top-order batsmen have played well. They should have given the MI team more than 190 targets. Moreover, their bowlers did not perform well today. Almost all the bowlers have given a lot of runs.

171 was a defendable total. Still they lost the match, because once again their bowlers failed. As pointed out by JSRAW, Archer's absence has left a huge vacuum, which is yet to be filled. RR went with an unchanged playing XI today, and I think they need to rethink on this strategy. At least some of the players who are not performing up to the mark needs to be dropped. They do have a few good players warming the bench, and these guys deserve one or two outings each. Mayank Markande and Kartik Tyagi are very good bowlers and I am confident that they will be able to perform if enough chances are given.

Rajasthan Royals has to pick wickets to put pressure back to Mumbai Indians as they need 55 runs in 38 balls and with wickets in hand they can easily reach the target.
Archer's injury turning out to be a big blow for the Rajasthan. Their bowling still look okay here n there due to individual performances but they are missing Archer big time. Safe to say that no playoffs entry for the Royals.

Agreed. Apart from Archer's absence, Samson's poor captaincy is also having a negative impact on the fortunes of Rajasthan Royals. Their pace bowlers (Jaydev Unadkat, Chetan Sakariya, Mustafizur Rahman and Chris Morris) had one or two good individual performances, but they failed to perform as a team. And on the spin department, Rahul Tewatia has been off color so far. However as far as batting is concerned, they are doing pretty well.

Quinton de Kock's unbeatable 70 runs secure Mumbai Indians victory over Rajasthan Royals! Brilliant Performance by Quinton de Kock. Rajasthan Royals attempting to give their best performance without of their main overseas players but still nothing going in order and at the moment they are at the bottom. I have doubt, how long they'll go because of their worst management.

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.
How come Brett Lee donated using bitcoin, is he representing any cryptocurrency company or is he an cryptocurrency enthusiast which we never knew. Heard the situation is worse than anywhere in the world hopefully they will get over the situation soon.

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.

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.
Lets forget for a while that it is legal, what is the guarantee that these helps will reach the intended people. Last year when the pandemic started the prime minister started a covid fund and there is no clarity on how much money he collected over all but it is said to receive over a billion rupees and the situation people are facing is not a secret anymore as people are dying due to lack of oxygen and what the hell they did with the money they got a year ago and what precaution and preparation they did, the answer is nothing.

Mumbai Indians on route to another victory as they are cruising at a good run rate.

@Juggy777, if they think that they can ban Bitcoin, then let them try that. It will be one of their historical blunders.

Back to the match, Mumbai Indians need 172 to win against the Rajasthan Royals. And this time they are short of one specialist batsmen (Nathan Coulter-Nile included in the place of Ishan Kishan). BTW, can anyone tell me what the two Pandyas are doing in the Mumbai Indians squad (Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya)? So far in this IPL, Hardik has scored 36 runs at an average of 7.20, while Krunal has picked 3 wickets after conceding 128 runs.

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.

@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. 
Despite having so many specialist players, Mumbai Indians have not been able to win. Their opening pairing is not lasting, De Kock is not in form. He has scored 5 runs in the last 2 matches. MI's opening pairing against SRH did well, they won that match. Opening batsmen need to bat more responsibly.
