May i add: Lucknow will be the other team, owned by Mohd. Azharuddin and Subroto Banerjee of Sahara fame.

What a little cameo by Shah from MI .. When he hit the 1st six I thought Murali has come as a pinch hitter ......

Ugly from a purist's point of view but effective .....

Goodness me.

Rohit Sharma scores a Hat Trick

, MIs have thrown it away.

Surprise · 6th May 2009, 23:33

Let me bell the cat

Instead of Sachin, we should look for some youngsters. Seriously MI depends lot on the openers and early wickets always put them in back back backseat. Duminy is really good and consistent in this IPL.

Thrown it away indeed ! Rohit Sharma gets MOM for his bowling effort including a hatrick !

Damn....disappointing display from MI. We just 'THREW' the match away. Can someone pass this message to the MI team:
Please let Jaya and Bhajji open the innings and blast thier way in the first 6 overs. Get Bravo 1 down and Tendulkar 2 down and see the difference it makes to the team.
So: Jaya, Bhajji, Bravo, Tendulkar, Duminy, Nayar and the rest.

Point it that if we lose Tendulkar and Jaya early, we lose complete confidence. Atleast this way, we might stand a better chance.
What do you guys think??

My option for Duminy would be first down with Jayasuriya + some x at the top. Sachin can walk down at 2nd Position.. But even then, more that the order its the batsmen who have to stand up and deliver

my bangalore team has just put up a sad show in the first innings :(

SilentEngine · 7th May 2009, 19:48
