kkr is doing very well this season, possible only cos they kicked out the laibility named ganduly. this should be a lesson to pune as well, to kick out ganduly if they want to do well.
MI should send Dwayne Smith to open innings with Sachin. If MI gets flying start, they can easily score min.180 runs in every match. Pollard & Rayudu are there in the middle order for late overs hitting.
Malinga bowled beautifully against KKR but went wicketless. Yusuf Pathan was getting frustrated time to time as he was unable to score against Malinga.
He has been an awesome player since his debut in T20. He has also been disappointing due to his failure at international level. But this has also to do with poor handling of his batting position. He should bat at 4 or 5. But has been asked to open or go down as low as 7. This is very much different to the treatment Kohli has been given. Anyway. Any man who can score 26 of the last over when 24 are required and hit a last bowl six at any level, is a class player.
Rohit plays a big role in this match.He score 109 of just 60 balls.Gibbs has a wonder standing on the other side. A wonderful record by rohit in ipl is He got the karbonn kamaal catch(kalis),Maximum sixes award(5 massive sixes),and the Man of the Match award. Mumbai goes to the 2nd place in points table.Mumbai need 1 match to win frm 3 matches. Pls pray for our team Mumbai Indians
Rohit Sharma has finally displayed his rare talent in the midst of packed eden crowd. There was never a question mark about this player's talent . The same can not be said about his temparement though . However , some of the critics especially through rediff column were going over board by levelling him as an average player who can face only Indian bowlers in subcontinental condition .So , this innings will serve as a befitting reply to them.Hopefully , Rohit will play in the same vein and score tons of run in this IPL as well as in rest of his domestic and international career.

Rohit Sharma doesnt play when it is required of him to stay at the wicket. MI were batting first hence had no pressure on him.Let him score big time when chasing regularly rather than one off

dm sp Kidhar ki baat kidhar kar rahe ho. I was specifically speaking about IPL. Look at Steve Smith he is a kind of a guy who inspires to perform no wonder he is now the captain. Rohit sharma is lazy, takes his place for granted. There are better players than him in India
