It is a do or die match for DD. DD has lost 2 matches already and they can afford to lose just 3 more matches out of the remaining 12 in case they are to make it to the last four. And out of the remaining 12 matches they have to play KKR-1,MI-2,CSK-2 and RCB-2, that is 7 big matches.So they will jhave to win 4 out of the big matches and all the remaining 5 matches with smaller teams ! Hence DD must win this match and reverse the losing spree if they have to make it to last four. Should Morne Morkel and Sehwag make the playing XI nothing like that. It will add not just to their strength but it will also help them improve their sagging spirits. Here is a one important strategic tips for DD to win: Pollard comes at no6., that is after fall of 4th wicket. So what DD should do after fall of 3rd wicket of MI will be to go defensive--spread the field ,stop boundaries , do tight bowling and restrict run flows but do not aim for fall of wicket. Drag as far as possible at least till 18th or 19th over or till end. By this strategy you can keep Pollard away for as much time as possible. A win is assured by such strategy.

Re: pollard should open
by fink fanther on Apr 09, 2013 02:54 PM
because sachin will never let anyone open other than him. and the place for the other opener can go to a flop player like rohit sharma. but no pollard.
I think if MI opt with Sachin & Dwayn Smith opening & Ponting at no.3 that will make real good combination for them. U can't rely on out of form inconsistent Rohit Sharma to give stability to middle order. Also Pollard should bat at no. 5. If Rohit Sharma is not performing in next couple of games he should be replaced with some fresh young talent like Chahal, Yadav etc. This will really help MI to give justice to the potential they have.
No one has the caliber to say about sachin, if some one saying that he should have to get retirement from the cricket. He has to see that whether he can go and face one ball against the pace battery like, Africa, Pakistan & Australia. so please shut your mouth as we don't have caliber to say about sachin
Strange! People who didn't touch the bat or ball.. They decide the future of Great Sachin on Rediff, who is best batsman in the world (as every great of cricket accepts)...

How do you know that they are losers or they have not touched the bat or ball. They are the ones whose bat & ballss have been touched by your you-know-who? Ask them ?

No I don't know or even required, that is your personal matter as this is your family business Mr WCPAK
...is routine for sachin now...why cant he retire and spare us this agony ? an option for him would be to open a Peking Duck restaurant...he has so many ducks in his collection now.

actually he should bat lower down the order, that way he make sure to accelerate scoring by score huge sixes..
