i would rather Warne and 10 Barmy Army members than any of the other teams in the comp.
And that's why you'd never win a game, the Royals need their other internationals to come in, atm the have almost no batting. Just because Warne is good, don't mean anything when he has to defend 120-150. But then again the faced one of the better bowling attacks in the comp' so I reserve my judgement until their next game.

Looking forward to the KKR vs Deccan, want to see how McCullum goes second time around and how the fans are toward Symo' now that this game is on at a good time for me to watch.

And Deccan win the the toss and bat, great. Now I have to wait to see McCullum, at least I get to see Gilly.

Ravi Shastri says, "This is a shocking pitch."

By that does he mean the batsmen might actually have to work for their runs? Now that's not what any of us want to see.

Looks bad IMO.

Aussie dream team is out there, Gilly and Symo.

5.3 Agarkar to Gilchrist, SIX, It takes special talent on this pitch to go for two sixes in one over. Agarkar does it. It was again outside leg stump and Gilly again flicks it over long leg.

Lol. Gold.

No, he meant the massive puff of dust from a ball on a good length from Sharma.

Good stuff. We have pitches that outrageously favour the batsmen all the bloody time. Why does everyone get so up in arms when we have one that outrageously favours the bowlers? Great to see IMO.

You're obviously not watching the game. The difference between a pitch that outrageously favours the batsmen and one that outrageously favours the bowlers is that the latter can be genuinely dangerous to a batsman's health.

I'm all for pitches that have more help for bowlers. But when part time spinner look like the next Warne or Murali. You know there is something wrong with the pitch.
