*Official* Indian Premier League 2011

[Jono]

What an awesome over.

Three boundaries by Uthappa, and three awesome deliveries by Warne with huge LBW shouts not given.

Eventful. Reckon two of them were out.

 

[Cevno]

All 3 seemed out to me.

That umpire is strange.

 

[Spark]

All 3 seemed out to me.

That umpire is strange.

Indeed. First and third were merely "fairly out" rather than stone dead, but the second one most certainly was.

 

[Jono]

I think the last one is fair enough to give not out. It was half pitched on leg half outside, Hard to give those. Plus it looked close to going down leg.

The first two though were out.

 

[Jono]

If you don't give the first two, how can a leg spinner can LBWs?

 

[Jono]

By the way did anyone think the umpire was about to give the third when he moved his hand? Looked like he was gonna give it simple due to the pressure of the previous two as well

Warney is a good appealer.

 

[Cevno]

LOL.

Warne changes to Taufel's end.

And gets his man.

 

[Spark]

At last.

 

[Cevno]

Uthappa is about to cross into the 25 to 35 range.
Gets out mostly in there.

And there we go again.
Told you.

It's almost like you let him score that much looking supreme and he will throw his wicket away for you when he reaches it.

This was from Last match.

And now the same has happened this match too.

It is almost a fixed script with him between 25 and 35.

Can't seem to go beyond it,even if his life depended upon it.

 

[Cevno]

That umpire is a batsman's dream.

 

[Blaze 18]

Good to see they've dropped Tim Paine and brought in Nathan McCullum.

 

[Blaze 18]

Serious question - who was the last decent umpire from our country?

 

[Cevno]

Venkatraghvan i guess.

 

[Cevno]

That is a very big wicket and so unlucky.

 

[Jono]

Venkat?

 

[Cevno]

This Ground is quite bigger than some of the others.

That was well hit and just seemed to dip in the wind.

 

[Blaze 18]

Good call, Venkatraghavan was a decent umpire. Pity the current crop are horrible. The Sahebas, the Tarapores...

 

[Blaze 18]

That is a very big wicket and so unlucky.

About time Rajasthan had some luck TBH.

 

[Cevno]

These 2 need to attack now.

 

[Cevno]

Now Nathan Mccullum sits in the pavillion while these 2 trundle along.

They are only 4 down but batting like they are 7/8 down.
