Servers RR right

With just 2 batsmen and one bowler RR was fooling around. High time they were shown their right ful place in the game of high calibre professionals.

Kings X1 NRR is negative. RR chances are dependent on MI performance.

He is also not utilizing Jayasurya wisely while left arm spinners are doing great for other teams.

jayassuriya is not not confident in bowling since his batting is not upto mark.

may be he(munaf) got injured.
or may be he thought spinners can do the job due to lack of faith in munaf at death.

bt munaf is only a bowler n he is playin in last 11 and nt given the second over after delivering the good 1. its wastage n it was a factor which cost RR n they lose the game. if thre hv been a batsman , he might b able to make few runs while chasing the target.

Re: Well Done Gilly......

yes.. i also fully agree.
this is a solid combination.
couple of grey areas.
1.rohit sharma is primarily a batsmen, but off color.but bolwing really well.
2. suman has to stay long to get 40s or 50s. and not get out in 20s. he needs to improve catching. he dropped catches on his bowling in match against MI and of asnodkar yesterday.

most RR players are rookies.
kaif's presence would have stabilsed their bating.but they dropped him.

inspired changes by gilly
by HI on May 12, 2009 10:49 AM

he dropped gibbs ( for getting ducks). bringing in smith and vass in place of ryan harris was really bold decision.
this combination looks pretty solid.
oly thing is suman should stay long enough to get around 40-50, rather than throwing it away in 20s.

RR has to win against MI and Kings X1 but it is not looking possible now. Bowling department is getting weaker and weaker. Only hope an individual performance from Y.Pathan or G.Smith.
