Awesome. RCB have picked the right overseas players at last. Nice to see Watto batting 3 for the Royals too. Looking forward to this game, hope we get to see KP vs Warnie.

You reckon? I think I'd have White above KP in T20s. Though KP might have a better chance of taking Warne apart I guess.

I do, but my clear Pietersen-bias does play a part in that. Would much rather watch him play than White.

Brilliant running from Ojha. Was Lumb's call and he made it down to Ojha's end before the throw came in.
Paunikar in ahead of Watson? =/ Struggling to see the logic there.

No doubt some no-name numpty will run out KP later on, before playing a horrific shot and getting out shortly after. Getting irritating watching them saw off the English players.

Starting to get a bit annoyed with my team. Watto should be at 3, Pathan at 4, Voges at 5. This is a terrible batting order.

Watto should be opening tbh. If he's good enough to open for Australia, he's good enough to open for Rajasthan. I'd love to see Lumb and Watto opening together.

Even Chris Martin would be taking the piss out of that shot from Yusuf.

And yes I really don't see the point of keeping Voges in particular so late in the order.
King Pietersen
International Captain
Lumb, Watson, Voges, Yusuf, Jhunjhunwala and Ojha would be my Top 6, in that order.

Ojha hasnt been doing too bad as a opener...

Apart from trying to run Lumb out pretty much every game he's been decent. Watson and Lumb would still be much better though.
King Pietersen
International Captain
He's done ok, made 2 half centuries, but one of those was on one of the flattest pitches I've ever seen, even by T20 standards. I don't think having a bloke that's done decently at best, is enough when you've got one of the best International openers in the world currently, in the same team batting at 4. Watson's been in unbelievable form for Australia, opening in all forms of the game, doesn't make sense having him at 4. Watson and Lumb both have better strike-rates than Ojha, and I think would do a better job opening together. I guess Ojha could bat 3 though, having him below Jhunjhunwala was a tad harsh.

Middle order will be weak if Watson opens.
King Pietersen
International Captain
Not really. A middle order of Voges, Pathan, Ojha and Jhunjhunwala isn't notably weaker, and with a stronger opening partnership that are more likely to get RR off to a better start, I think the line-up looks far stronger.
Shri
Mr. Glass
It would be weaker in my opinion, lets just agree to disagree.

Pietersen smashing it! 
Would no doubt of been 10/0 if Kallis was still in.
