Great to see the Rajasthan Royals getting thrashed so badly. The arrogance of Warne and the owners must be laid low.They had the audacity to send back someone like Kaif; and look what happened to their batting.All out for 59!!!

are out of your mind, it was sachin, harbhajan, dravid and kumble who performed superb, including somr gud performance from malinga and mascarnhas
The policy of dropping seniors is not justified now. In Indian pitches any one can perform, even I. But on moving pitches you require class players like Dravid & Co.
I think shane warne miscalculated the teams ability, he thinks that 8 youngsters with their passion itself can win him another ipl trophy. It seems none of the lot has the temperament to stay at the ticket (yes too early to comment), but there should be a dravid, sachin like player in the xi.
Kamran didnt impress too much although hitting 140 regularly, he is going to go munaf's way.
Arun lal's comments were on target that players are seeing more than 175 as the target, but now we will see a boring first innings in all t20. Kaif is missed to some extent, atleast he should have been persisted for bench strength in dire situations. All teams will try to change their strategies. It'll be interesting to watch yuvraj. I think Delhi Daredevils has much chance to take ip2.

The dropped catch of sachin by Hayden nearly paid off for chennai super kings as no team these days like to send sachin back to pavilion it was dhoni who told his players not to get sachin out as he will ruin himself by consuming too many balls,had it not been for Nayar mumbai would have paid dearly for sachins slow batting

hi JGN - Sachin's strike it 120 - and u say its slow batting. In the condition there that's the best if u want to ensure a win. You want him to hit 2 or 3 sixes and go back to pavilion? Then you will say - reckless batting. Sachin never waste balls even in test cricket and he carries a strike rate of 85 plus after playing over 2 decades of one day cricket. Unless you maintain consistent strike rate you can't achieve this in such a long career. It is easy to criticise - if you dont like sachin - but one should have the heart to appreciate - when someone like sachin - carried through 20 overs in difficult condition and his perservance paid rich reward. Dont talk of dropped catch - it will happen to every cricketer and Sachin was the victim of several wrong decisions than any other cricketers. You are going to see the best of little master in this IPL and be ready to cry over his success - as you may have to hate yourself in the end for your venom against little master.
