Re: Dhoni should do good batting like this

But there is no that much money. I don't think that Team India would play with best effort.
If KKR win by 200 runs or they chase down the total with 9 runrate. For example, if MI scores 60, KKR needs to win in 5 overs. If MI makes 100 then 8.5 overs.

forget about the margin, it's more good if at leats they could win against them!
Chasing 133, Daddu scored 75 in 50 balls, offcourse as ever there were quite some dot balls and all hell broke loose about Daddu.
In less than 24 hours, Dhoni's team chasing 193 to win and qualify for semifinals, the captain himself at crease smashes 26 runs in 9 balls of the remaining last 29 runs which were required to win in 12 balls.
A do or die situation, pressure at its best and The Mr Cool of Indian cricket showed the way.
Now whose innings was of more pressure and which of the two players has played such an innings in their cricket careers?
Has Daddu ever played such a knock while chasing?
Now pls dont say he has done it for India, Daddu has not played such a knock for even India also.

There is no vs. CSK is a better team, they have reached all semies. KKR is a flop, they haven't reached any.

I'm a Tamil myself but it pains me so much when a minority starts spreading hatred, and that too over a game. As a nation, we have far more serious and pressing issues to worry about than stirring hate. About Times of India, the newspaper has a lot of its readers in the North so it is only obvious that they write more about news that interests its target market. This is in much the same way The Hindu gives more importance to events happening in the South.

Repeated more than 5 times....Gilli thanda game is great great grand father of Cricket.
irfan is just no death bowler...better to put it he is no bowler right now...y does sangkarra persist with him..i have seen irfan lose 3/4 matches for kings 11 this season with his poor death bowling...when will sanga be a more thoughtful captain and not a mere bloke with fancy english
Re: a stupid captain

Dude, it is same irfan who bowled the death over vs CSK last over and paved a victory for them which was virtually impossible for them. Needing 1 run from 2 balls, he did really well to restrict CSK and let the match to super over. In the death it was virtually any body's game. Just give the due credit for CSK for holding up the nerves and Badri, Raina, Morkel & especially Dhoni raised to the occasions. Don't forget they dropped a catch off dhoni in the same death over. Had it been held, the match result might have been different.

Irfan was a great bowler before he got hooked up with his idol Wasim Akram and started taking his advises to improve further.. See what happened to him since then. He himself admitted he was very confused with all the advises from Akram and his performance went down along with his place in the national team.
