Will DD stem the rot? Will DC win one to restore some pride?

Delhi need to get Rajat Bhatia back in the side. Will be more useful than MT down the order.

DD will walk all over DC

Not sure about that. DD has to show they are not overdependent on GG and VS in scoring quick runs. Unless one plays a big inngs , DD has shown signs of tottering.
DC obviously has taken everybody by surprise with their losses having all the big names. Has emphasized that consistency is more important than momentary flash . For the records i am cheering for DC.

Toss: DC chasing .
IMO that is the first advantage.
Also both of DC's win have come while chasing .
Will we see some fireworks from GG and VS and Delhi reach 200 ? Will GG be dropped to no3 to do some balancing in batting order ?
Stay tuned.

Afridi in for Vaas.. Sarvesh for Bangar.

ramshorns · « **Reply #9 on:** May 15, 2008, 02:18:43 PM »

Good to see Sarvesh Kumar an U-19 MRF pace prospect getting a look in. Very smart on the part of VVS and company to start giving these youngsters a chance. Also good to see Ravi Teja again in the lineup. Only if he gets to open with Gilly in the place of an insipid Gibbs that would be great.

I would want to see the following order today

Gilly
Ravi Teja
Gibbs
Rohit
Venu
Styris
Afridi
RP Singh
Vijay Kumar
Sarvesh Kumar
Ojha

Well IMO the batting order should be floating depending on how openers perform. I am ok with your openers. but would send Afridi and Styris anytime around 12 over mark. Rohit or Venu can go No3 to negotiate Mcgrath if wicket fall early. But always one quick scorer has to be in field.

Sehwag goes again the hit or miss guy of Indian cricket. I do not understand the obsession with him. There is no consistency whatsoever. And people just have him on their must have list. To me I would rather have him in Tests rather than in a 20-20 or a ODI game. There is a reason why he averages so less in ODI's even after playing close to 200 games. 2 or 3 quick 50's followed by a string of single digit scores will do that to you.

ramshorns · « **Reply #12 on:** May 15, 2008, 02:49:41 PM »

Anyday in a ODI or a 20-20 game I will take Gambhir over Sehwag. I like the way he goes about his innings.

MY TT team( in the thread) had SRT instead of VS for the same reason

with the emergence of GG,RS,YS,RU etc.. dependence on VS for win has been countered.

GG taking RPS apart

ramshorns · « **Reply #15 on:** May 15, 2008, 02:59:22 PM »

This guy Vijaykumar is doing good. When Indian pacers like RP are taken to the cleaners he is holding his end of the bargain. 3 staright games I noticed it.

In cricinfo by a fan.

"Gambhir is the first batsman to score 400 runs in IPL. He has truly come a long way - i would pick him ahead of Sehwag as an opener...both for tests as well as for ODI's," says Shrav.

DC still missing that one big consistent inning. Been the storyline all through. Getting brisk starts and throwing it away. I wonder why they are packing the top order with all stars and leaving the lower middle order open. Poor strategy IMO.
