RCB's next match will be close, against MI. I am eager to see Morgan's batting. Hopefully he will get a chance in next match to show why is so much hyped about.

Yeah...Kallis is in the form of his life & I'm sure Morgan will get a chance to prove his worth when RCB face MI. This will be an awesome match

. If Morgan clicks & there is still KP & Ross Taylor coming in, Kumble is gonna have a big selection dilemma.

For today, I guess DC are going to belt out KXIP. KXIP are pretty down right now. Maybe, things will change when their stars return.

The second match, I am on the fence. Either DD or CSK could win.

dude! your last few predictions are way off mark

I think Kallis is proving that he is the best 'test' player out there while rest of them are still deciding how to play T20.
264 not out after 4 sessions.

Looks like Punjab is going nowhere, team do not show energy, coordination, team work or good captaincy in the ground.

sam_boy · 21st March 2010, 23:31

1st tie in IPL-3 ....

Now a super over .. Its getting interesting

Pune and Kochi won the bid for additional teams from IPL 4 season.

Sahara Group was the highest bidder at $370 million to bag Pune and Rendezvous Sports bid $333.33 million to get Kochi as the two new franchisees to make the Indian Premier League (IPL) a 10-team affair from the 2011 season.

CSK rely way too much on Hayden. In fact they've been relying on him for the past 2 seasons. Whenever he is off, CSK have lost. There is no other player in CSK who can intimidate the opposition and deliver the goods like Hayden does.

It looks like either KKR, DC or RCB are going to win this season because they have good balance in their playing XI.

RCB is hell bent on promoting it's liquor brands through proxy advertising. Apart from Royal Challenge and Mcdowells on their shirts sections of stadium in Bangalore are named as Bagpiper and their other brands.

Win or loose all these will become household names.

finneyp · 22nd March 2010, 14:18

Yes, RCB is shamelessly promoting all its liquor brands!
And the concerned authorities & Govt are keeping a blind eye towards it...

vijaythacker · 22nd March 2010, 14:26

another thing which i surely feel is that how do these players play in such hot and humid conditions atleast in 4pm matches, i went to see one match here in Ahmedabad which was of evening, even then it was damn hot, pity these players how does play in this conditions given the amount they get from such tournaments.
