BTW, Harshal Patel conceded 37 runs from a single over against the CSK.  Grin
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. Cool

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  Grin) 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  Grin 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.
And their coach David Hussy thinks that Gill is going to be highest run scorer LOL. Nitish Rana is okay but Shubman Gill never looked T-20 material to me. I don't remember any inning where he was striking at 150+. Eoin Morgan failing at both front continuously (Batsman+Skipper). Russell should surely bat at no 6 and push DK at no 7, Cummins is their strike bowler, not batsman and despite his cameos, i would prefer keeping him down at the lower order, unless you want to drop Morgan.

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 .

133 runs is not too much. 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~

Nithish Rana showing the intention but failures from the other side put extra pressure on him so even after small starts he got out to the bad shots so Gill should be replace, even Sunil Nairne can be a better choice for them because he got the striking ability so even if he is going to out he won't eat too much of balls like what they did in today match.

RR needs just 57 runs from 66 balls with 8 wickets in hand now the chance are like 90% on the side of RR from now on. KKR batted really poor that is why they are going to lose this match because this is not really a bad wicket for batsmen like Chennai and days before 220 was scored by Chennai from the same pitch.
Rajasthan Royals just needs another 32 runs in 34 balls and it looks like they can win the match from this situation but who knows as the pressure keeps on rising and if they loose wickets things can change even though David Miller and Sanju Samson is in the crease. I have seen matches where RR looses at the last moment and hopefully we will not see that this time even though i am staying away from betting in this match.

If Russell can play a devastating innings today then maybe Kolkata can win today's match.
Andre Russell has to play an outstanding innings for them to post a competitive total as they are moving at snails pace at 6 runs per over and it will take them around 120 to 130 if they go at this pace and they need someone to play an outstanding innings to take them well past 150 runs and they just have 5 overs left in the innings.

Rajasthan Royals is also not in the best form and hopefully they could change the tempo and make it interesting rather than a slow paced match.
Andre Russell set back early to the pavilion, Kolkata Night Rider unable to set a decent score and after 20 overs they're bound just 133/9
Both are losing site last couple of games, and hunting win but as the present circumstance Rajasthan Royals in a good race to win the match.

Just now Jaiswal was out, RR collected 41 runs in 5 overs and lost 2 wickets. Both teams have a 50-50% chance of winning. If Samosn and Dube are not out early, RR will easily win the match.

It is the pitch where Chennai Super Kings scored 220, followed by them Kolkata Knight Riders too came till 202 runs. By this match for Kolkata Knight Riders there is no big change in the players. Also, they've got the chance to bat first. Kolkata Knight Riders should've scored atleast 180+ runs. The team has good players and it lacks performance. Often someone is taking responsibility for the loss, but they're not overcoming the situation to mark their winning.
