Well that was a load of crap from Taylor. Been horrible this tournament. Jayawardene hasn't been fantastic either. Still have room for improvement if they can get all of their foreign quota firing.

As alluded to on commentary this is a horrible pitch for the home team. A pacy pitch and Delhi would likely annihilate Rajasthan, this is the sort of pitch Rajasthan would want.

Indeed. I believe they call that "Indian".

Haha! Though even by Indian current "young guns" standard it is suspect or slightly below the average of the rest.

Yeah, this pitch favors Rajasthan more than Delhi. Though tbf, this is more like the default Kotla pitch at this time of the year, than what we have seen in matches before.

Well all you have to do is leave enough grass on it so that it's not all killed off when the game starts. That's what they want, so the ball goes through with at a higher and more consistent pace. I would have thought that would be one of the easiest things you could do as a groundsman.

Trademark Parthiv Patel innings then.

One's got to feel for Steyn. He's been superb this IPL but has been let down by incompetent batting, poor bowling support and at times dreadful fielding. He's deserved to be on the winning side the majority of the games he's played in but is somehow yet to feature in a win.

Indeed Cabinet, Steyn has probably produced two of the greatest ever T20 spells in the same tournament alongside some other stellar performances. He should really have more wickets if his bumbling teammates didn't keep dropping absolute sitters. That delivery to Levi was just crazy. Swinging away in the air at extreme pace before hitting the pitch and seaming back in. Great bowling from big Morne as well in the DD game.
