Rahul dismissed but Mayers in Killing Mood

I'm not really sure why so many teams are still opting to bowl first on flat pitches. It's not working out very well for the Kings today....

I will never understand why the likes of stonis and pooran never played test cricket

 

[Molehill]

When you're chasing over 250 to win and your opening batsman lets the first ball through to the keeper......he should be dropped just for that!!

Stoinis has an incredibly mediocre FC record and Pooran has played FIVE FC games. Not that WI have a pool of talent in the longer form.
