"Sachins absence ..cost the match" is the best comedy of the decade...and it was a perfect fix yesterday by IPL management...the way each player gifted their wickets tells this...by this way they are trying to make it a close competion and good business....all the best IPL....u will succeed for sure...

yes. it makes you want to believe a side deliberately lost it..right from the start..why no malinga? and many changes that bhaj forgot one of them....gifting of wickets rohit and pollard..what can you expect when a bowler is the highest scorer...

i have watched the MI's complete innings...not even a single wicket is justified to be lost...even both the openers deliberatley playing a wrong line and making it a good ball...
Harbhajan is a horrible captain, worse than Sachin. He has a mind which is neither cool, nor thinking. He cannot play a match winning knock with the bat, neither can he bowl a deadly spell to bundle out the opposition. Importantly, he cannot motivate his team mates too. It’s high time to change the captain if Mumbai wants to go to the final of IPL.

he is alright, when owais shah was going great guns he brought in malinga at the right time ato dismiss owais. also he's seen commn. with his bowlers often. btw, bhaj was the highest scorer last night ...it was his team who let him down...now how do you expect anyone to defend a total of 92? you mean to say if sachin was the captain he would've defended 92? no way.
it is a question mark as to whether sachin's absence is hurting MI or not? from sachin's present form one can very well say that sachin is not a valuable player for T20 brand of cricket. infact yesterday MI missed malinga,why the MI management rested him is not understood, that too against such a strong batting side like DD.even if sachin comes back later in the tournament, his slowness will affect MI's fielding badly.

Feel sorry for MI as they have sunk to their lowest total in this IPL5 and devalued themselves by hanging on to Sachin, who is now more of a liability than a asset. Being the smart people that they are I hope the Ambani’s know what they are doing and whether they are getting their money’s worth or not? Sachin cannot play even 3 games in a row anymore as his body cannot stand the stress of physical toll each game takes and someone needs to make him understand that…!!
SAchin is indeed a boost to the team even if he is in the bench. Harbhajan is making poor excuses for his mistakes pointing the master. the team won the champions league. what about that?
