IPL 2008 : 1st Semifinal : DD vs RR
« on: May 27, 2008, 08:25:21 PM »
Can RR maintain their momentum?

VS/GG blitzkrieg could end their run. I am sure SW has plans to guard against that.

This should be a cracker of a semi-final

i hope delhi wins this but their recent record is quite dismal.

in their last nine matches they have the following record.

LLLLWLWNW

other than the close win against Mumbai they have only beaten DC and BRC.

hopefully they turn the tables this time against RR.

I think RR luck will run out finally, tragically in a game that counts.

Consider this they won a game on the last ball of the match against Mumbai the other day and earlier in the tournament against the DC team won a game in the penultimate ball of the match when Warne of all batsman got 19 in 5 balls.  I mean the law of averages will eventually catch up.

P.S:-I would be rooting for RR as I do not care much for DD a team lead by the hit or miss guy of Indian Cricket, Sehwag though I love GG.

And even that win against DC if anyone watched was a close affair.  A better shuffling of the batting order could have done the trick for DC.

I think RR will end their campaign the same way it began, with a loss to DD. Whatever win or lose RR has been the best team in this IPL.

Only Kings XI can win more matches than RR now .. and, that too, if they win all their matches .. last league match, semi, final AND RR loses in the semis!
