*Official* Indian Premier League 2011

[Jono]

Yadav on a hattrick. WAFG.

Morgan out first ball is so huge

Lol @ Irfan Pathan catching his brother out as well.

 

[TumTum]

How is Morgan's IPL so far?

 

[Cevno]

Bad.

Nice to see Tiwary doing well here.

 

[Borges]

This Umesh Yadav does bowl a heavy ball, doesn't he? The heaviest I've seen from an Indian quick for quite some time.

 

[nsniks]

Ya Morgan's IPL so far has been bad, I think in the next match KKR will drop him and play Shakib as morgan hasnt done anything to warrant his place in side

 

[Manee]

One of the deliveries in his second over which Tiwary defended quite easily read 152 kmph! His seam position was quite encouraging as well.

Length ball which doesn't move won't trouble anyone for speed. He is definitely looking genuinely quick though - just bounced out Eoin Morgan, who is an accomplished international batsman and was a catch away from bouncing out Gambhir too - one of the world's best. Would not doubt the 152kph reading or at least would not quickly write it off, this guy is quick! And heck, there is another one capable of pushing 150kph in the same franchise - Varun Aaron. This is as promising as it has looked for a long time for India in terms of finding an express quick bowler.

Other than Aaron, he is the quickest Indian I've ever seen.

Yadav, Irfan and Agarkar outbowled Morkel tonight

Tiwary has always been a talent but his attitude has always been kind of rubbish.

Showed glimpses of it again today with his running.Seems to rate himself too highly.

A major reason why he has not played for India more. His averages coming from a east zone batsman where pitches tend to favor bowlers more than some others ,is very good indeed in domestic cricket.

Irfan was bowling some pretty amazing stuff from what little I was able to watch. Love these T20 pitches assisting the pace bowlers a bit in this IPL.

 

[Jono]

Sehwag out to bouncer shocker.

Off Unadkat of all bowlers.

Learn to hook or put it away idiot.

 

[Jono]

Horrible chase from Delhi. Just the worst batting ever.

Sehwag is such a waste of money really, but he's a Delhi boy so they need him. Just does not have his heart into the IPL. So obvious too. Mega cbf factor with him and Yuvraj.

 

[vcs]

Haha. Truly, this should be a law in the cricketing books.

The chasing team is never out of the game until Laxmipathy Balaji has bowled his last over.

 

[TumTum]

Lee WAG

 

[Shri]

Iqbal Abdullah is the biggest turner of the cricket ball I have seen in a while when it comes to SLA bowlers.

 

[Jono]

Haha he was ripping them wasn't he?

If he works on his length he can do some damage.

 

[Bun]

Haha. Truly, this should be a law in the cricketing books.

has had a reasonably good tournament. hasn't he?

 

[Bun]

a lot of random foreign unknowns seem to have got in which can be only attributed to having recommendations from the franchise coaches.

Well TBF to Yuvraj other than the game against CSK where he stagnated, he has been pretty good.

 

[Jono]

Yeah I probably was a bit harsh on Waterboy. That knock was unbelievably bad, but yeah he's done better than Sehwag.

That being said, if Sehwag and Yuvi do **** all in the IPL and perform for the Men In Blue I won't mind one bit.
