RC & DC are definitely out of the tournament. KKR has to beat CSK, RR, Kings XI to enter the semis which is difficult coz all three r good teams. MI on Jayasurya's current form are capable of winning 3 matches easily and might just make it. Delhi is a very good team but they are struggling right now. They also need three wins with good run rate. CSK is playing DC & RC which can be a little easy. RR & KKR can be a little tough, they need just 2 more wins to book their birth in semis. Here is my impartial analysis of semis.
RR vs (MI or DD) CSK Vs Kings XI
I support good cricket and will be happy if a consistent team wins the IPL. RR have been fairly consistent with a good captain Warne.

Good work u have put lot of effort to come to the conclusion but as u know that Cricket is known for uncertainty so any thing may happen at the end so keep ur fingure crossed . Any way at this stage I also agree with you.

jaysurita, jaywardahnae, murali, dishan, mahroof, kapudagedra all will leave after ipl finishes mate, jayasuriya has only been included in the sl team,so dd relax u will have to face snath
Shaun should have been continued as captain of MI.That coward Sachin was still faking injury when MI was losing. As soon as Shaun got the team to winning momentum, sachin miraculously became fit and was keen to be back in the match. But boy he can score, he was out for against that pathetic team KKR

Yes definitely true. This guy has the talent. when it is needed he wont play. We will see our sachin will hit big scores with bangalore and hyderabd.

tanya its obvious how little u know of cricket, if u saw it was the field placings and slips even in the 10th over which were giving wiickets, to bowl shaun for 4 str8 overs was a masterstroke and sachin doesnt need to fake inhuries, he won us the cb series in australia with 2 great innings in teh finals, what are u yapping, go get a life n learn to analyse cricket and let us mumbaikars decide who is the best for mumbai, 40 thousand ppl were chanting n singing sachins name yesterday, so u get ur answer ass

sachin is a good captain and a great batsman. The only -ve was when sachin was the captain of india, only sachin played and a few others played, the rest of the guys esp bowlers were absolutely hopeless. do u rmmbr sunil joshi, vekatpathy raju...pathetic..
"SACHIN HAS A GOOD LUCK". well done boyz especially SANATH & POLLOCK for their contribution. The face of SHAHAAAARUUKH was telling to SANATH JAYSURYA "ABE RUKH AUR KITNA PITEGA MERE SHOAIB KO. PAHELE HI TENSION MAIN 3 CIGRATTE PACKET KHATTAM KEY HAI" SHAHRUKH MUST BE MUMERING THE SONG "CHAIN SE HUMKO KABHI AAPNE JINE NA DIYA JEHER KYA HAI AGAR PIYA TO PINE NA DIYA"

Since KKR is loosing match after match, you have come up with a concocted rubbish like this.Would you say the same thing had KKR worn most of the matches? Since you feel IPL matches are fixed, don't watch them. If you continue to watch, God knows what sort of stories you would come up with.

hey banarjee bong go stuff rasgullas in ur mouth and ur ass n stuff it up ganguly, laxmi, saha, dinda as well
u know .. the strangest part of human life is when they fail to accept the obvious.. It requires more than fools dancing around, jobless heroes clapping & crappy speeches to win a cricket game. KKR has a good team & if left alone from all these above mentioned nonsense, they can start playing something called as cricket.. I would surely put this game for a lack of application. u need to judge the bowler swinging the bat around..
The MI have just started to get their stars firing at the right time. u got to be glad that sachin didnt fire. atleast we can see him blazing at some intresting games.
This IPL has created so much intrest, dont be a spoil sport. just because our fav teams lost, that doesnt mean matches are fixed.
