He blamed he Sri Lankans for lacking in common sense

fine i changed my view. he didnt spend any money. that means he saved a lot of money not fixing the matches and getting crappy cheerleaders.

and the final is a dy patil not wankhede.

I thought all matches had been shifted to Wankhede ... so assumed the same for the FINAL 3 matches as well .

In other words , it shows as to why Mukesh is such a big biz man ;-) .

You should have known .. Sachin has been around for decades and he is the most politically correct speaker

. And maybe thats why the indians love him so much .

Cheers

AHHHHH...WELL I HOPE SO TOO..... Mumbai Vs ?????(since we hoping)

diabloo · 27th May 2008, 00:15

If CSK WIN their match against DC, DD play RR in semis.
If CSK LOSE their match against DC, DD play KXI in semis.

So both RR & KXI are keen to know the result of CSK match - last thing they want is to face DD in semis

I would prefer DD rather than CSK against KXIP.
KXIP has many left-handed batsmen and they have to face Murli which is tougher than facing DD's leggie Amit Mishra.

Also CSK has won both its matches against KXIP as against DD which have lost both.

normally_crazy · 27th May 2008, 00:25

MI do not deserve a place in the semis if they play like what they did today. In fact when nehra came on to bowl the 18th over - I knew Sachin had blown it.

diabloo · 27th May 2008, 00:28

I feel it will between Sehwag & Dhoni in the finals

and Sehwag will extract his revenge for making him sit at the T20 WC finals

Did Sachin really make a statement like that?

3 matches for MI had been depending on last over and they screwed it thrice ! Why was Pollock given 4 overs in the beginning. I think against Delhi & RR Pollock should have been given last over being more experience. Now MI has very very slim chance of getting through. But who ever goes to semi's and
meets Yuvi. I just WISH they Kick him on his back side.
