Hope KKR doesnt upset them

start of a double header for DC.. 2 matches in 12 hours

ramshorns · « **Reply #2 on:** May 16, 2009, 02:14:48 PM »

I am a little wary of this whole back to back 12 hour gap games. Let us see.

DC win toss. fielding. Gibbs, harris and harmeet in.

Mortaza in for KKR.. hope he doesnt take it out on us

pitch report folks say i would bat first.. an absolute belter for batting

I do not like Gilly's choice here. His strength his batting. He should have a set a big total and have fielders back his bowlers. If they lose this one I will put it on the decision making here.

I agree. They crumbled on the chase the other day.

I cannot believe that I will be supporting KKR in all their matches from now , But just for the sake of Bangalore.

The umpires are Pakistani Indians, I guess.

What a moronic piece of umpiring. IMO umpiring standard in IPL has been poor.

The strongest appeal came from Gilchrist, who thought Ganguly made a genuine attempt to obstruct the ball. Had a pretty long discussion with the umpire.
6.5 Harmeet Singh to Ganguly, 1 run, appeal for obstructing the field, tucked away to short fine, Ganguly was racing towards the non-striker's end and came in way of the throw, replays indicate he made an attempt to stop the ball, hanging out his left hand, controversial

Absolutely.. the umpire would have heard all his life for giving SG out and took the safe option. Pathetic decision

he actually tried to catch the ball.

RicePlateReddy · « **Reply #23 on:** May 16, 2009, 03:26:17 PM »

As usual, he is misunderstood. He just wanted to take the ball and go home.

I can say that in one sentence. it is umpire's fault and SG was playing within his rights

If KKR have any sense, they should send Mortaza at #5. He reminds me of Akram (batting) and can whack the ball around.

This act shows the mental makeup of SG. His old cowardice against the cricket ball hitting the body has shown up. I mean, come on!!! Can't he let the ball hit his body? This is a disgrace on SG. One of his blackest moments.

Good that he took one in his rusted family jewels. Karmic justice, I should say.

ganavk · « **Reply #30 on:** May 16, 2009, 03:31:04 PM »

these two are taking the match away from............. KKR

come on ...it is 10th over and we still have not reached 50 and that 10 overs included 6 power plays.
Hindsight that n.o. might have done a favor to DC

He is left clutching his own balls instead of the fielding team's.

Actually that SG decision is working in DC' favor. He is struggling with the bat.

LosingNow · « **Reply #33 on:** May 16, 2009, 03:32:47 PM »

barely not out.. WTF was that running between the wickets.

Ojha is bowling very well. Getting some serious bite from the pitch

Rumor has it that SG's 'bat' broke a long time ago. These days he just struggles with his 'joystick'.

DC makes a mistake by getting SG out. Pathetic innings from SG.

SG goes.... bad for DC. SG was 'stroking' the ball so nicely!!
