What's happened to this Billy Stanlake? After the last game I thought that he had no reason to exist, and here he is today, bowling well.

Not sure about Gill at 6/7 (if he plays it should be in top 4)...But Mavi was a much needed move...VK had to go
I think Gill will come in next unless there's very few overs to go. Karthik, Russell and Narine are decent lower order hitters.

Wonder why Narine isn't opening again, maybe they thought he wouldn't be able to hit Bhuvi with the new ball and is better off at the finishing role this time.

Shubman at 7 now - very excited for him, but this is absolutely not the correct position

Whee! Kane Williamson is the king of IPL; the monarch of all he surveys. Things can't get any better than this.

D Arcy Short: Australian-IPL superstar, bought purely for the amount of comic relief that he can provide.

EDIT: For the benefit of other uninformed posters: I just looked this up, the Australian-IPL actually goes under the name 'BBL'

First two games he was run out due to Rahane's inadequacy tbh. Rahane has had lot of terrible run outs in the ipl.

He was looking quite good before he fell.
To be fair, even my cat would have looked good if it had come to the wicket immediately after D Arcy Short.

I think we know who the real (unintentional, possibly?) comic here is.

So why were the bowlers bowling in the slot all the time. Same thing happened when Russell went wild. Are these bowlers nuts? Have they not heard of the shorter ball?
