That is genuinely disgusting cricket.

If you can't rely on your two main fast bowlers, why the **** did you buy them?

**** off Kochi.

Haha, looks like everyone who's called Pathan loves hitting boundaries. Can't say I'm complaining - he's Indian. :D

Well done Bangalore. :)

Awful game from Mahela. 18 off 18 and then going out with a perfect platform set before him was poor, and then shoddy captaincy.

Meanwhile, Sreesanth is still a ****.

Poor captaincy by Mahela. No way a club standard bowler would have tied down AB. Sreesanth or RP might not have either, but at least they had a hope then. BTW, Amazed with the hatred for Kochi team. They are a team just starting out.

When Gomez walked to the crease chewing gum, I thought we'd see some Viv Richards-esque batting. Guess I was wrong. :ph34r:

Kochi team lack the fire power in their late middle order. The score should have been in excess of 180 with the start they got. And i think this pattern will continue and they will struggle the whole tournament and finish bottom. Nothing much to write home about in the bowling either. Sreesanth has always been a **** and will remain so.

Think Kochi could look a lot healthier on paper if they re-jigged their batting order. McCullum's obviously no problem at the top. Send in one of the young lads up the order to attack, and have Laxman able to either steady things from the middle order or carry on the assault - he's their most versatile player, so ought to be able to adapt. Jadeja would be more comfortable at 6 than 5, and from there it's just slogging anyway.

I think it's best to have Laxman at the top. He's not the sort of guy who is going to come in and start slogging straight away, which is what he'd have to do at five or six. He's much more likely to get you a 75(60) by batting through the innings.

AWTA, Laxman's best chance to score is when he opens or comes at no:3. No point in bringing him at 5 or 6 when you have to just slog. He simply isn't that kind of a player. Exactly what Warney did with Dravid. His best chance to score is when he gets more time at the crease. Coming at 5 or 6 will not suit these kind of players. Kochi does not have those flamboyant Indian players in the batting order which will be their downfall. They will always struggle to up the run rate once they lose their top international players. Jadeja and Gomez in the hitters role is laughable.
