Re: who is atul sharma in raj royals team?

Yeah he was a camel rider in Rajasthan, one day he picked up a stone in the desert and started hurling it at great speeds and was noticed by a tourist who happened to be the Rajasthan coach. He called him for a net trial and the rest is history..
Anybody saw his one over in warm-up match. This 18 years old left arm fast bowlers impressed with his in-swinging yorker. Warne didn't give him more overs, may be he didn't want to expose him before first match. He will be dark horse for RR. G.Smith, S.Watson, Y.Pathan and S.Tait were not available for warm up match, still local champion cape cobras struggled against RR.
Their team has been weakened by injury to the class allrounder Shane Watson and also Sohail Tanvir is not playing (as no Pakistanis are playing this IPL ) . Chennai Superkings and Mumbai Indians have become stronger with addition of more quality players .I'm sure atleast one of these two teams will reach the final .Delhi Daredevils again have the potential to go the full distance . same goes for Kings XI Punjab .

T20 is much more unpredictable than the other forms of the game of cricket and anyone predicting the outcome is doing so at his own risk. Also, most predictions tend to reflect the wish of the predictor than a realistic assessment of the teams involved.
Falling in this line, I would venture to predict the following:
Winner: Could be anyone of the semifinalists
Semifinalists: 1. Chennai Super Kings 2. Kings XI, Punjab 3. Delhi Dare Devils 4. Deccan Chargers
Fight for the last (8th place): Between Bangalore Royal Challengers and Kolkata Knight Riders
Fight for places 5 & 6: Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals.

Only one change. J. Buchanan isn't the captain. He is CC (captain of the captain - or Charlie Chaplin). KKR isn't going to be as strong.
it was on cards when u rest good 8-9 players and give chance to those players who are not capable of doing anything,all of the players in this match was not the regular members of the rajasthan royals,only warne was part of it,so from here we cant judge the rajasthan royals strength,i think will so some good stuff when their all players will be back

HE is the worst off the field.But he is the BEST on the field.He is the crisis man,best captain,best manager and best coach.He need noone's certificate.He proved his mettle in the field.He is not a paper tiger like Tendulkar.

Girish, can u tell me how much is 1 2? Your comment on Tendulkar sucks. What else do you expect from Tendulkar? Do you want him to make centuries in every innings/match that he plays? If yes, it proves your cricketing ignorance. Look at Tendulkars records. It may not have won you many matches, but he has given his 100%. It is not easy to win matches single handedly. India is doing well now, b'coz there is a contribution from everyone. Even if you think Tendulkar played selfishly, how many player in this world you think can score so many centuries like Tendulkar did even if they are selfish?
