Not liking Kapugedera right now. He's either straight onto the front foot or he's backing away outside leg and swinging wildly.

 

[duffer]

The whole match is like 35 seconds anyways. Who cares?

Top comeback from Rajasthan.

Well, I remember Warnie's rant against Sourav about how he slowed the game down too much.

Looking at his watch he exclaimed "1 hour and 20 minutes! 1 hour 20 minutes per innings and the game should be finished." Seems a bit hypocritical to me, though I understand why he's doing it.

What we've come to love from Warney tbh.

Kapu goneskis.

 

[duffer]

Kapu's been a bit rubbish this tournament hasn't he?

 

[four_or_six]

163 about par?

Can Kaif bat high up if he hasn't fielded or is there a rule like in tests?

 

[duffer]

163, on a ground where the average score has been 140 is a good score. Runs on the board in a final is another good thing going for Chennai.

 

[Nate]

160 the par score for mine. Anyone's game.

 

[duffer]

Thing about Chennai is they didn't lose wickets in a bundle and managed to build decent partnerships all the way through so their rate didn't drop. Rajasthan has to do the same and not panic everytime they lose someone.

Yeah, agreed. That's why I think Kaif is kind of important, especially without Smith.

Ntini's killing Niraj on legth here.

 

[Nate]

Gonehhhhhhhhhh

 

[duffer]

Niraj gone, probably a good thing for the Royals, he looked clueless out there.

 

[duffer]

Haha, Asnodkar can look a jammy little bastard at times.

 

[duffer]

That's big, now it's Watto time.

 

[pasag]

All up to Watto.

 

[duffer]

That was a suicidal run, but great throw by the Mak.

 

[pasag]

Gah, silly.

 

[duffer]

It's really these two who need to get them to at least 120-130

 

[four_or_six]

All up to Watto.

And Pathan, he's been really good.
