Sharma still looks a walking wicket against anything that bounces above his waist, shame because I do like him.

Hmm.... I am not sure about that tbh. He pretty much throws his wicket away in all kinds of different ways.

He usually also deals with the balls bouncing above his waist targetted at his body decently. Has a problem chasing them outside off though.

He's looked terribly uncomfortable against anything fired into him from when I've watched him, like you say he does find all kinds of interesting ways to get himself out though.

I know Mumbai have batted dreadfully but DD have bowled as well as you'd expect any international team to bowl. That yorker was quality. Haha, as was that off cutter.

They have, Agarkar bowled a few length balls last over but apart from that very good, need to finish it off though.

Haha, according to that poll, 51% of people think Delhi or Mumbai will win the IPL.
Hmm. Mumbai will look a lot stronger in a few days or weeks if they actually pick their best team. I don't know whether Johnson is fit yet but he should definitely play and Perera should play ahead of some of the rubbish they've picked so far. Levi is a one-trick pony until he develops the rest of his game. Jacobs is rubbish. Franklin and McKay are average.

But yea I don't think their temperament has improved.

Daredevils' bowling is going to look a lot less effective on the typical sluggish pitches. But I think they're a strong team.

He may be a coke head and a criminal but Dermot Reeves probably should be doing something better in cricket than commentating on IPL. Such an innovative and original thinker. Shame he has such a chequered past, otherwise I'm sure he would have done a lot more in cricket post his playing career.

Comedy catching.

Oh KP, couldn't middle the pull, strange no ones been able to get one out of the middle consistently, this pitch really has had some bounce in it, really hurried every batsman.

Yeah, he came up with this pretty imaginative gem when Levi got out. :p -

The commentator just said Levi can go and Join Davy Jacobs in the shower now. :laugh:

Comedy catching.

Probably still had soap on his hands from that shower earlier. :ph34r:

Just saw Pollard's shot on the news - what a ****ing piss-poor advertisement for the IPL that was

Team in trouble but with lots of overs left

Who cares?

I'll just have a slog because it doesnt matter anyway!

Absolutely disgraceful
