Be Warne-d Knight Riders!

In the other match of the day, the first such weekday that has two matches, Kolkata Knight Riders lock their horns with pre-tournament underdogs turned sentimental favourites, Rajasthan Royals. After winning the first couple of matches, Kolkata has lost two, where as Shane Warne’s team has gone in the other direction – winning three successive [...]

Deccan to Charge the Kings today

Hyderabad’s Deccan Chargers will definitely miss a power house in Andrew Symonds today, but that would be evened out considerably with the absence of Brett Lee in the Kings XI Punjab team in today’s match between the two of them at Hyderabad. Gilli’s last match’s century notwithstanding, Deccan Chargers may just not start as favourites, [...]

Bangalore Royal Challengers go down fighting

In today’s match between Delhi Dare Devils and Bangalore Royal Challengers, the latter won the toss but elected to field first. With the kind of batting lineup that Delhi have, this did not seem to be one of the smartest moves around, as first, Sehwag and Gambhir, and then Gambhir and Shikhar Dhawan combined to [...]

IPL stands by PCB ruling…

The three-man appellate tribunal has upheld PCB’s ban on Shoaib Akhtar, but allowed him to play for IPL. However, BCCI, and the IPL commission has made it clear that Shoaib would not be allowed to play in the IPL till he gets cleared by the PCB. This is a very big ruling coming against Akhtar, [...]

Seal the lips…and umpire!

Amish Saheba, one of the umpires that refereed in the now-famous Mumbai Indians-Kings XI Punjab match, has been banned…suspended for a couple of matches for speaking to a local newspaper about the incident. In a surprising interview, Saheba got his few seconds of fame, when he told the newspaper that Sreesanth had been abusive through [...]

Steyn-ful Bangalore take on Delhi Dare Devils

With Dale Steyn back in the Bangalore Royal Challengers’ team, it would not be wrong to say that the Bangalore team has a reasonably strong bowling attack. Praveen Kumar, Zaheer Khan and Dale Steyn form the core, where as there are some all rounders worth a mention. On the other side of the fence, there [...]

Ponting disappoints…yet again!

In what was his last IPL match of the 2008 season, Ponting disappointed yet again, scoring – or should we say, scratching – a 19, that came off 31 balls! Surely, this was not a one off as well, in all his tally read only 39 runs, made over the period of his four innings, [...]

Mumbai Indians get on board…finally!

As if to prove that the Harbhajan episode had gone a long way in galvanising the team, the Mumbai Indians played like men possessed to beat a strong Kolkata Knight Riders side today. Winning the toss and batting first on a pitch that was very uneven – and again, not fit for T20 cricket – [...]

Luckless Mumbai play Dada-led Kolkata

In today’s match at the IPL, Mumbai Indians will play against the Kolkata Knight Riders, and would hope to secure their first points, before the IPL fast turns out to be a seven city race. But without Harbhajan and, in all likelihood, Sachin Tendulkar, it is going to be an uphill task against a strong [...]

Dhoni comes to the Party…

It is a party called IPL, and Dhoni’s come in at the right time. In the match against Bangalore RCs, captaining the Chennai Super Kings, Dhoni blazed away to a 30-ball 65 after coming into bat at 83/3 in 12 overs, and taking his team to 178 in the stipulated 20 overs. If this was [...]

Sense or Nonsense?

Bhajji got banned for 11 matches. That was the serious part. The funnier part is that BCCI is conducting another inquiry, by an independent lawyer, Sudhir Nanwati, who would then submit his report within the next fifteen days for any further action! For one, how can someone be punished for the same misdeed, twice? And [...]

IPL Match of the Day – 11

Some may term this as a battle of unequals, but then in T20 cricket, Zimbabwe – full of club level cricketers – has also got the better of World Champion Australia, so a Bangalore Royal Challengers matchup against Chennai Super Kings may not be that big a misfit. Dhoni would be captaining the side against [...]

IPL Matches of the Day – 10

In today’s matches, winless teams, Deccan Chargers are supposed to play Mumbai Indians, both vying for their first points after losing three successive matches.

Harbhajan suspended…at least for now!

Bhajji’s ugly spat with Sreesanth took another turn yesterday, when Harbhajan was not only slapped a notice, asking him to explain his actions, but was also suspended from the IPL till further probe. The probe does not happen before Monday, and so he would be missing the next match that Mumbai Indians play against Deccan [...]

IPL Day 9 Result-1

The first match of the day was supposed to be a cracker of a contest with the top two teams and unbeaten so far, in the tournament taking each other on. Kolkata Knight Riders would be going into the match half strength, and that is simply because their non playing captain, SRK, was away, and [...]
