CSK V MI

Chennai got a very easy win against Mumbai today. After the first match defeat, Chennai managed to get back on track quite well. And Chennai's overall performance in both matches was superb. However, the main hero of Chennai's victory in today's match was their bowlers. Jadeja in particular bowled brilliantly. He picked up three wickets for just 20 runs in 4 overs. Also, Ajinkya Rahane's performance impressed everyone today. He scored 61 runs off just 27 balls.

Mumbai has lost both their matches. In the first match, they lost against Bengaluru by 8 wickets. They were badly defeated in today's match as well. The condition of Mumbai, Delhi, and Hyderabad is very poor this season. All these three teams will probably be at the bottom of the points table.

Royal Rajasthan having enough stuff for this season with bat and bowl and if they keep performance like this surely we will have good end of them in this season while mostly other teams are struggling from early rounds few things looking pretty good as GT, LSG, RR and PBK are looking special teams which will be in handy position if we have no late shocking results from few sleeping giants like RCB and MI even right now situation is clearly indicating we will have no enough support from these sleeping giants because these teams are full of star players, but performance level is usual which is never helping them for having better results while they have the worst start of the season.
 
Today RR done amazing job even still they need to promote Hetmyer because he is big player for big games and can bring better results but right now their strategy is working for them, and they have good results hopefully they will keep things at their best level.

Between Mumbai Indians vs Chennai Super Kings, It was a great match from Chennai Super Kings. Especially Ravindra Jadeja whose bowling performance played a very good role, taking wickets of the big three batsmen of Mumbai Indians and low Econ made him the best player of the match today. Although I would have been happy to declare Ajinkya Rahane as the Player of the Match, his batting performance today quickly took Chennai Super Kings to the brink of victory. If we talk from the average run-rate and also the run worm chart, we can see that Chennai Super Kings were ahead in each sector. Anyway, today's match helped me book some profit, and congratulation to CSK for this victory.

The starting of this IPL season is really ignominious for DELHI CAPITALS. If we saw at the point table now Delhi Capitals is at the bottom of table with -2.092 rating. And I agree with you that the team management should definitely revise their team squad, especially if we see how Delhi played in the first three matches their bowlers were being very expansive, due to poor bowling performance,
and for this their opponents were being to able set targets of the good amount and later batting failed to chase that target due to lack of good batsmen in the squad. I think they should give a fresh look at both the batting and bowling side.

As a Bangladeshi supporter I will be very happy with Aleem dar's retirement because in many matches Bangladesh team lost important matches due to his wrong decisions. Anyway good luck for next life

Pakistani umpire Aleem dar took is about to retire. A very emotional good bye he has received during his last match

There are various strategies and calculations in IPL. He has been taken but not include into the playing squad. Moreover, Delhi Capitals' loss in 3 consecutive matches made this matter more interesting. Why have you kept a bowler like Mostafizur Rahman out side of the filed? Since they are not doing well, authority should be given a chance in any match to see how effective his performance is. However, it is not an easy task to recover from losing three matches in a row. If Delhi Capitals don't win the next few matches then there is no doubt that their condition will deteriorate this season.

Delhi Capitals team management is making fun of Mustafizur Rahman by not taking him in the squad. They are posting his picture on their social media page before the start of the match. I'm wondering why they took him in Delhi by hiring a private jet if they don't want to include him in the playing XI. 3 consecutive losses for Delhi Capitals. I think they will have a tough season in this IPL.

I am agreeing with you buddy , I am also hope some more run from specially from the captain of Mumbai Indians Rohit Sharma. Even his performance was not that bad but the expectation of of run and strike rate was more and it is less than that.
And if I talk about my prediction in this match it is already we all also can guess who will won todays match . Chennai Super kings looks very comfortable on pitch and their require runrate was being lower than their current run rate.
Ajinkya Rahane played a awesome role with his batting performance I have seen a fasted half century today from this man . His strike rate was more than 234 . Only from 26 bowl he made 61runs
Currently Chennai super kings at 83 run with falling two wickets and they have still the required runrate is under the current Runrate. I already placed my bet on Chennai Super kings today. Let's see what is going to happening.

Buy a washed-out, aged Indian Test specialist batter on base price and promote him to the top order in a T-20 match.

And the very same guy who got dropped from the test set up due to his timid approach, scoring 19 ball 50 lol . All credit goes to Chad Dhoni and CSK management. 

Trent Boult is an absolute destructive with the new ball. His ability to swing and generate extra bounce make him a threat to any batting lineup. In the match between Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals, Boult's skills proved as he do his things again. Delhi Capitals couldn't lead his team out of trouble. The strike rate and overall performance of the team were extremely poor. The amount of balls David Warner faced, he certainly had the opportunity to score a hundred in every game! Unfortunately for the Delhi Capitals, this was their third consecutive loss of the season. Let's see if they can turn things around.

Rajasthan Royals' high run rate is mainly due to opening batsmen Butler and Jaiswal. However, some wickets fell after half an over from the beginning of the game and Rajasthan scored some more runs towards the last with Hetmyer as the batsman. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals' bowling and batsmanship is very weak as wickets fell more towards the last part of the match. Due to which Delhi Capitals were under a lot of pressure and Rajasthan Royals won by 57 runs. Now Rajasthan Royals are at the top of the points table.

Disappointing batting from MI as they gave a target of 157 to CSK. The 15.25 crore worth Ishan kishan once again failed to score runs. I don't know why MI is spending too much money on IK, he was a failure in last IPL but IK was once again bought by MI for 15.25 crore. Its good opportunity for CSK to improve there standings on points table. MI has spent so much on Rohit and IK that they forgot to buy some quality bowler.

The opening pair of Rajasthan Royals was 98 runs. And the two openers Jaiswal and Buttler collected 139 runs. Such a great start allowed Rajasthan to set a target of 200 runs. A collection of 199 runs was enough to win against Delhi. Because Delhi is not in good form. Like the last two matches, Delhi lost today too. Delhi's total was only 142 runs. Warner scored the highest 65 runs for the team. Delhi is at the bottom of the points table after losing all three matches. And they lost all three matches due to poor batting by the batsmen.

Trent Boult's first over turned the tide of the match for Delhi Capitals. Trent Boult's first over was like this, (0 0 W W 0 0).  

Where he picked up a maiden over with two wickets in the first over of the innings. If two of the first row batsmen of a team get out with golden ducks, then the momentum of that team can be seen after seeing the batsmen of Delhi Capitals.  For the subsequent batsmen, it was very difficult to deal with the bowlers of Rajasthan Royals. And so it happened. But David Warner has kept one end of the responsibility so far.  Where 82 runs are now required from 24 balls to win. That means Delhi Capitals need to score twenty plus runs in every over to win. Which is absolutely impossible. Rajasthan Royals' victory is only a matter of time. Delhi Capitals failed to prove themselves once again.

Their main problem is that they hired 3 inform openers (Buttler-Jaiswal-Paddikal) and tried Paddikal turning into middle order batter, which backfired to some extent as Paddikal is already dropped.

They could've gotten some good middle-order talent for num 4-5 slot (mainly local) due to foreign player restrictions but they didn't. Parag usually bats at a similar position for his state so he does fit the ball. Although the little I've seen him in the IPL, he hardly strikes me as an accumulator and his best performance came when he attacks while batting at middle-lower order.

Anyway, it's done n dusted for the DC and move to CSK vs MI.

RR did an amazing job with thier batting they give a good total of 200 runs , credit goes their openers who collected pretty good runs .
Delhi Capital is in difficult situation they have already lost 3 wickets on 61 runs.  The runrate is high so they need to speedup with their runs their main batting lineup is almost out.
David Warner is on crease and he can lift up his team in this tough situation.

Prithvi Shah as an impact player had 0 impact to the scorecard. I mean how can you justify his absolute worthless batting to his performance in domestic cricket. Another important player is Sanju samson. If he continues to bat like this then I doubt he will have any fans left.

DC doesn't have the batters it needs to chase a target of 199. At the moment it looks very difficult for them after losing 3 batters. In this big batting line up of DC I think only David Warner and Axar Patel have the ability to chase this target. But, DC management doesn't think like me that is why the opted to bowl first after winning the toss.

They scored 199 which means that Delhi needs 200 runs to win and I am confident that they are screwed. Buttler, Hetmyer and Jaiswal were epic as usual. Their consistency is off the charts.

Also, I have no idea why they keep giving so many chances to Parag who has been delivering disappointing performances from a long time.

Yes, the skill shown by Sri Lanka in the last over made the match quite impressive for the spectators. There will be wins and losses in the match but falling 3 wickets in the last over is not easy task. However, Sri Lanka could not achieve anything from the New Zealand tour. They loss in all 3 series that address them quite disappointed. But despite this, they can be a little optimistic through the last T20 match. Sri Lanka's target of 182 is never a small score against New Zealand. Hopefully the Sri Lankan team can do better against other teams in the future.

Rajasthan again botched up their terrific start. They scored their first 100 runs in just 8 overs then next 6 overs they only collected only 45 odd runs.

They might still go close to the 200 runs but the final score should've been close to 220-230 considering their start. On the batting track, these mistakes could cost you a match.

Sirlanka tried very hard to win this t20 , they gave a big target to Newzealand but Kiwis chased that too . Newzealand won the match by 1 run 4 wickets remaining. 
That is a close match between teams  , Newzealand win the series by 2-1.
