Anyone saw dravids comments: In 20 20 two overs are needed to change the game... Hey , but isnt some skill required to be able to play those two overs that change the game or is it just luck
Secondly , if any one observe the matches, heres a situation:
Dravid always has stressed on technically good players only and also has said they needed two overs which change the game. If any one has been following the matches here are a couple of things I would like to point at: During the bangalore delhi match, there were a couple of full length deliveries to kallis( a technically good player if choose to call him so) which was either defended and later when the run rate was on the rise, were cover driven on the off side for boundaries.
The same full length deliveries , I have observed have been smashed to six by Symonds and Dhoni during the previous matches.
Anyway being technically good also is not ensuring that these guys are winning matches.. So what is the stress on being good conventional solid batsman that dravid is giving( They havent anyway shown that they are solid)
Is technique just enough to change the game( Atleast that hasnt happened in IPL till in a winning cause)

Player/tea, should be judged by the end of tournament it is not right to criticise / or say someplayer is not fit for T20 type matches. Beautiful and artistic innings played by Sangakara and firey innings by Mccuulm, gilcrist. But players who perfromed so far are not getting creditinstead some ind cric experts like jadeja, k srikant, saba karim arunlal and some tv channel are praising their supersuperstar wand some youngester who are performing better than S/stars not even getting any space in tvs clips or newspaper Pathan is highest wkttaker but most of time tv channels busy with ganguly dhoni and sachin.. RRS are considered weakest team but they have become favourite everybody is priasing S warne./ his leadership. things are not going intheir way for captains like dravid laxman are criicised by chockers like jadeja. even ponting jayavadrdhane are also failed to perform it does not mean that they unfit for T20 media poster boy dhoni is flying high though contributions from hayden, hussey and murali are underestimated..dhoni is lucky capatianeven umpires are contributing to his success KKRs loss yesterday was surprise pack. Even agressive dadagiri of ganguly did not help the team to win match.Even agressive act of harbajan made him out of team..
RCsare down below in list of point table but on the top list in table which is considered for award to team for playing game with true
The race is on for the wooden spoon(last place). 3 teams are copeting for the wooden spoon. Mumbai Indians are favourites followed by Royal challengers banglore Deccan chargers are the third tem in contention. Also if kkr play the way they have the last 3 matches we could have 4 way clash to see who is the worst.
Our Rajanikanth Saar is 1000 times stronger than Dhoni. If he hits a ball in Chennai stadium it will land up in Bangalore Chinnaswamy stadium. He is still young, prolific though his age proof says he is 60 . He will be the real IPL hero

Think... - only Rajni can hit more than 6 sixers in 6 balls... - Only Rajni can hit two sixes in the same ball.. - Rajni can bowl with a speed of 1000 mph... - If Rajni is on the field, no one else is required.. he will fly from thirdman to long off for catching... - Only he can bowl the offspin and legspin in the same ball. - and Rajni's legbye will be a sixer to longoff
I have read a funny posting in rediff cricket forum few days back.... posted by some 'order order'. It was really funny... Want to dedicate to all of you...
