As a good captain you should have to take every responsibility very carefully and should have a broad view on every situation and i found all in MSD. I remembered many matches where India team winning chances was below 20 but his technique worked well and wins many matches.

CSK will definitely missing MSD alot after retirement from IPL. In this season their team has less big name from other countries but still in good form and they have ability to win this final if they play in consistency.

Mahi has everything under his name. He is a great sportsmen plus a great human being and that's why he receives lots of respect from all around the world. Kohli is no doubt a great player but at times he do childish things while on the pitch. Mahi is 41 years old and his fitness is like a 25 years young player. Although Mahi has not officially announced retirement but the world of cricket will definitely miss him and remember him as great player.

^^^ I am not sure whether there is a need to overhype the CSK bowlers. For sure they have performed well this season. For example, Tushar Deshpande has picked up 12 wickets so far, but those wickets came at an average of 23.16 and an economy rate of close to 11. Compared to him, Ravindra Jadeja performed much better. He picked up 10 wickets at an average of 17.60, and his economy rate is exceptional at 7.33. Akash Singh has also bowled well and he has so far picked up 5 wickets from 4 matches. But overall, CSK has won their matches mostly due to the batting, with bowlers playing a supplementary role.
Agreed. CSK keep winning primarily thanks to their batsmen who are very, very consistent in this season. Rutu, Conway, Dube and Rahane are in their prime currently while MSD, Ali etc support them well now and then.

Their bowlers are alright frankly speaking. Jadeja and Pathirana are the only ones who impressed me.

He has won more international trophies than any other Indian captain. Under his captainship a lot of new talents had emerged
.He is the second best captain in IPL after Rohit Sharma, when you consider the number of times he won the trophy. If he will not groom those young bowlers than who can. The confidence he had shown towards these guys is working for CSK now. At the moment they are one of the best team..

Both the batsmen and bowlers of Chennai are performing well and that's why the top spot in the table is occupied by Chennai. Chennai management has been able to build a stable team. And the important thing is that almost all the players in the squad are in good form. And if they don't lose their form then I think Chennai is more likely to be the champions in this year's IPL.
Tushar and Akash's bowling has been quite good this season. If they can prove their mettle in the IPL then maybe we will see these two bowlers with the national team very soon.

MSD was once the most successful captain of the Indian cricket team, with many players emerging in the cricket team in India. He knows how to captain a team and take it forward. Under his captaincy many losing matches have also been won in the end. All the players mentioned above have not qualified for international matches or made their debut but only Dhoni's bowling skills have been able to take Chennai Super Kings to the top in IPL 2023. However, there will be no surprise even if Chennai Super Kings are champions in this year's IPL because Chennai Super Kings can only make it to the finals under Dhoni's supervision.

This led me to think about How CSK is winning matches? They have bowlers who have zero/least exposure to International cricket. I went ahead and check the stats of Deshpande, Akash & Pathirana.

While every other team had to bid for bowlers. MSD is busy creating new bowlers.

@LDL these bowler’s definitely have the potential, and MSD is slowly and steadily grooming them and I won’t be surprised if they get bigger roles in the long term.

@Sithara007 I disagree here it’s not hype at all, because these bowler’s deserve praise as it’s never easy to bowl in a T20 match and these bowler’s are performing well despite no major experience that too in IPL hence they deserve all the praises they can get for their performances.

In early overs we have some better performance from the MI, but after 15 overs till end things were completely in control of GT which won this match by good margin and now have second spot in league table MI completely down in batting as their all stars were completely failed to perform as required which is surely the biggest concern for them and if they are not able to check their mistakes then surely things can go from bad to worse for them because currently they are at the bottom of the league table, and now we have 7 rounds gone which mean from here they need to give their 100% for staying into touch for the better end of this season SKY. Kishan and Rohit Sharma all are out of the touch, which is surely not good news for them and their fans as well.

Kishan and SKY are out of form, but I will not say the same about Rohit. He has made crucial contributions in almost all the matches. That said, after 7 matches the only player from Mumbai Indians who has a total of more than 200 runs is Tilak Verma (219 runs from 7 matches). Cameroon Green is at no.2, with 199 runs at an average of 49.75. Suryakumar Yadav has only 146 runs to his name at an average of 20.86. Actually he has performed much worse when compared to either Ishan Kishan or Rohit Sharma.

Seems like Rizwan was willing to play for his own century and do not care about the team's cause. Still, he was unable to make his century and fell two runs short. He remains not out at 98. How unlucky is that?
Also, he took 62 balls to score 98 runs. The strike rate was almost 158 which is not bad but since he batted for the full 20 overs, he could have increased the pace at the end but instead, he become a little bit cautious for his own 100 runs milestone.
You are right Rizwan had a chance to perform better. But he didn't want to take any risks. Responsible batting. A bit slower batting but I would say he has done well. Because if Rizwan was out, it would have been difficult for Pakistan to collect 190 runs. The performance of any batsman in Pakistan is not regular. And so if Rizwan is out, it cannot be said that any other batsman would have been able to perform well.
However, Pakistan was defeated because of the stupidity of the bowlers. Pakistani bowlers gave 77 runs in 11th-15th over. And because of bad bowling in these 5 overs, they lost
Things looking not good for Pakistan in last few months their performance and quality both are going down which is not indications because they need to have set their level for staying at the top of the game first lost against team like Afghanistan and then having draw series at home against New Zealand giving all view about their future even right now they are having few good emerging players but this all needs time for bringing them to the top level few players are going down which is also not positive change but still we can expect improvement because if they fail to keep their level then surely they can go down which could be disaster for them.

Babar Azam was also not at his best which is also creating mess-up for them all bowlers were punished by Chapman in last match which mean they need to work on their death overs bowling as well which is also important.

Gujarat Titans showed enough good game their batting performance was excellent. Gujarat Titans collected 207 runs in the match losing 6 wickets in 20 overs. Shubman Gill was in good form and his batting performance was excellent as he scored a half century. Gujarat Titans batted best towards the end of the game and their score was highest today. Rahul Tewatia was the best finisher in the last few overs of the game. David Miller also had a great batting performance but if he could have lasted a little longer there would have been more runs. But in today's match, if Mumbai Indians can't do a good batting performance, they definitely won't be able to win the match. To win this match, Mumbai Indians must put up a great batting performance and move forward with wickets in hand.

Some changes have been made to the salary cap rules for the BBL. Now the franchises are allowed to sign players outside the salary cap. The highest paid overseas player will receive around $420,000 per year for the BBL, and close to $110,000 for the WBBL. Each franchise need to pay the top-6 players a minimum of $200,0000 each, and for the WBBL this figure is $50,000 each. I feel that this is a welcome move from Cricket Australia. Recently some of the top Australian players refused to take part in the BBL due to low salaries and extended duration.

Everything was going the right way for MI until Abhinav Manohar came to bat. Watching him bat with Miller was absolutely mind blowing. I never expected GT to even reach 150 but these two led their team to go beyond 200. From MI it was Nehal Wadhera who gave some hope in the last overs. If he had got proper support from the other end then MI would have chased the target more efficiently. Poor form of MI batters has crippled them in this season.

Ishan Kishan's poor form is the no.1 concern for Mumbai Indians. They spend so much money to bring him to the squad and he hasn't made any contributions with the bat so far in this season. Rohit Sharma is hardly getting any support from the other batsmen. Suryakumar Yadav is another MI batsmen who has been out of form. He made 23 yesterday, but couldn't convert the start he got to a good score. Cameron Green crawled to 33 from 26 balls, but his innings was not ideal when the required rate was over 10 runs per over.

KKR VS RCB
KKR and RCB will play their eighth match today. KKR have lost 4 of their last four matches whereas RCB have won three of their last four matches and lost one which means RCB has been far ahead in terms of recent performances. Not Performance RCB is currently fifth in the points table. 
Even if KKR wins against RCB today, their points table won't change much but if RCB wins against KKR today, they can make a chance to move to the third position in the points table. 

But the RCB batting line app is completely dependent on three batsmen. All but three batsmen should take responsibility. Because depending on these three, a team can never win a trophy in an event like IPL.

Pakistan VS New Zealand

The fifth and final T20 match between Pakistan and New Zealand was truly spectacular. After Pakistan scored 193 runs in the first innings, New Zealand succeeded in chasing the target of 194 runs. New Zealand reached their target with four balls in hand. 

The fifth T20 match was a do or die match for New Zealand as if New Zealand lost today's match they would have lost the T20 series to Pakistan. After New Zealand lost the first two matches, there was a big fear of losing the series for New Zealand. But they have come out stronger against Pakistan since the third match. Although the fourth T20I was abandoned due to rain, in the fifth T20I, they defeated Pakistan. 

Md Rezwan played an important unbeaten innings of 98 runs for Pakistan in the fifth T20I. Relying on his unbeaten innings of 98 runs, Pakistan reached a huge target of 193 runs. 

Mark Chapman's storming innings of 104(57) saw Pakistan lose by 6 wickets to New Zealand. Chapman was named Man of the Match for the match and Man of the Series for the tournament.

When we see the results and the below picture sometime later in the future, we may say that the T20 series was drawn and the trophy was shared between the two captains but the fact is that I will consider this as a loss for the Pakistan team. They can't defend 190+ targets after getting some quick wickets is a serious question on their bowling performance.



The smile on Babar Azam's face doesn't suit him   Angry

It's a big loss and still no worries on face of Babar Azam. We are used to such pictures after every home series since last year. If such NZ team which is without its main player can draw a series against Pakistan then imagine fate of Pakistan against fully loaded NZ squad. Muhammad Rizwan just took single and doubles since he entered in 80s else Pakistan could have scored around 225. Rawalpindi pitch is known for big targets.

Seems like Rizwan was willing to play for his own century and do not care about the team's cause. Still, he was unable to make his century and fell two runs short. He remains not out at 98. How unlucky is that?
Also, he took 62 balls to score 98 runs. The strike rate was almost 158 which is not bad but since he batted for the full 20 overs, he could have increased the pace at the end but instead, he become a little bit cautious for his own 100 runs milestone.

I get it, fans on Twitter can be very mean and distasteful but you have to stay professional when doing post-match interviews in front of millions of spectators, this hardly looks good and sits well among all sets of fans.
He is gutsy and dumb at the same time. He just gave them even more ammunition to target him since he only delivered one great performance among all matches so far. His behaviour with some of his teammates was rude too. He won't go far with this mindset.
Exactly, no one likes this kind of attitude in professional cricket. Even Indian players like Hardik etc had to tone down and completely change their personalities after a few fuckups.

I am not aware of his attitude towards his teammates and it's news to me but if it's true then it's a big red flag for his career. I really wish this early success doesn't get to his head.
