In your dreams man, Winning 3 games in a row doesn't mean that bangy boys will make it to the final!! No offence meant!

But, an awesome display by RCB to make Mumbai bite the dust!!

but this is what i think will happen, what you guys say.

but for semi final it will : daredevils / Deccan chargers / chennai / mumbai

and final will be between : Deccan and Devils

Punjab should also be in there, hopefully. The fourth spot should be a fight between RC, MI & Chennai

esteem_lover · 4th May 2009, 16:07

Deccan is on a downswing. So are MI & DD. Unless they get their act together, teams like RCB, RR, CSK are likely to overtake them.

Slightly offtopic - Why don't the camera folks focus on the RC's pretty cheerleaders? I am observing this from the last 2-3 matches (when they are winning) and I spot this indifference. The other teams get their fair share of few seconds everynow & then, but the Blore team's CLs is never in the limelight.

Even during yesterday's match, the focus was only on the MI team. Every other moment the blue dressed females where shown, but the white mischief babes were elusive on the screen for us.

Why so?

BTW the news making rounds (made by me) is that the MI team lost because of the distraction (or attraction) caused by the White Mischief Girls.

if somehow a bangalore-chennai or a bangalore-hyderbad final happened, regardless of who won, people will riot in the streets!

Excuse me while I go find myself a pinch of salt. Rather,a bagful may be inadequate!

yeye, hayden needs play well this game.
past few matches raina has been saving us - he needs backup.

good luck with your fantasy league

cheers

Well, Haydos fires again! Awesome, Being a Delhi Daredevil, i shouldn't be praising Haydos but he is also in cricinfo's fantasy league!

But why hasn't Dhoni brought Raina at no. 3. he has got immense power to hit it a long way!

By the way, do v hv a fantasy league for team bhp on cricinfo? if yes then what's the LPIN?

Mission_Safari · 4th May 2009, 22:14

Three quick wickets and now Smith is in demolition mode. Hope he gets out soon .

Varun, Try cricketnext's fantasy league . For some reason i find cricinfo league not so user friendly.

Dhoni hasnt had a great IPL season until todays match and i guess he wanted to get back to some decent form. But i prefer him to come after Raina. Looks like this match is in CSK's bag. But the fielding has been quite bad from CSK. Suddenly the bottom half teams are doing well.

anekho · 4th May 2009, 23:12

what a win!
chennai is on fire!

we've made it to the top of the table guys, now let's hope we can keep it that way!

cheers
