IMO, this is do or die for MI...

Will/should they try a new opening pair and move SRT to the middle order?

I hope DD play McGrath.. I want to see him bowl and see where he is year+ after retirement

That's a first. WN asking for a Maharathi in the team

MI are off to the best of the starts... 1 run and 2 wkts gone. That one run is also off a wide ball.... SRT trying to hide himself but comes out in the 2nd over.

MI looks similarly screwed as KKR.

You need to wait. And rightly so IMO. If it comes down to a choice between him and Nannes it is a no brainer. Nannes as of now. Now I am not sure who else in the line up he can replace. Not Warner. Not De Villars. Not certainly Dilshan. I think he looks good warming up the bench and writing for 'The Hindu'.

Hey look. Now that money is involved .... and he is himself the captain. SRT is ok playing in the middle order.

When Chappel asked him all his fans were up in arms.

Could SRT be even more selfish than Ganguly?

ramshorns · « **Reply #6 on:** May 08, 2009, 03:06:24 PM »

Two nice boundaries by SRT in that over.

Now, you may have a point there.

Maybe someone can start a petition to drop SRT from ODIs

LosingNow · « **Reply #12 on:** May 08, 2009, 03:22:14 PM »

MI collapsing early this time..

..perhaps want to get done with their bad habits early

Good ps.. 130-140 in the offing.

Nannes being taken to the cleaners

Nice catch by KKD to get rid of Bravo.

Nehra bowling with a slip in the 17th over ..

ramshorns · « **Reply #22 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:06:56 PM »

A huge six by HS off Nannes. Nice clean hit.

ramshorns · « **Reply #23 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:09:51 PM »

Easy drop by KKD. Should be taken at this level.

make that 2 drops.. Nehra chews him out .. and then bowls HS

Man, I like Nehra's spirit.. perhaps needs to be recalled

GG is looking like a good captain

ramshorns · « **Reply #26 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:14:41 PM »

Another neat spell by Nehra.

Should there be an injury concern in the 20-20 WC squad for a pace bowler he should be the guy in line to be first picked up.

He looks fit and bowling in the 130's with a great length make it difficult to be hit.

..and he will do well in English conditions.

MI 116 ao.. only Malinga can save them.

After this pathetic performance by the MI may be KIC can come up with some nice combinations to see them through the SF.

I was thinking the same.. he has figured out all the combinations that will be needed for other teams for MI to succeed but forgot the basic thing - MI will have to win one game some time

I am sure he will present a scenario later today on how MI will make it to SF without winning a game, as long as KKR keeps pulling upsets

Like it matters.

It does not stop there does it?

You were hurling all kinds of insults at Hodge and no where to be seen when he has been the best bat in the KKR line up thus far.

I mean you have a history here.

BTW, these small chases can be tricky...

Warner 6 off LM

LosingNow · « **Reply #34 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:41:34 PM »

SRt should slow the game down.. bring HS in and ask him to flight the ball.

Cover Point · « **Reply #35 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:42:57 PM »

God is partial against Delhi-ites.

God has Gangulian traits!!!

Looks like DD did well while I was in meetings. Good for us Delhi-ites. These Mumbai-kars can only be the "Bhai's" and protest against Biharis!

And Delhi-ite Warner just gives Malinga-kar a warning.... DLF's him over the ropes

LosingNow · « **Reply #36 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:53:32 PM »

Malinga neutralized 3 overs 27 runs.

LosingNow · « **Reply #37 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:57:03 PM »

Kulkarni has bowled well here.. just 9 runs in 3 overs

LosingNow · « **Reply #38 on:** May 08, 2009, 05:00:06 PM »

good over by Bravo.. RRR > 6!

Cover Point · « **Reply #39 on:** May 08, 2009, 05:02:52 PM »

Gambhir is struggling. Should he be dropped from the WC squad? Do we have a back up opener? Can Warner play for India?
