Performance wise RR proved it's mettle, grit, determination, desire for success and un-flinching perseverance for winning so far. And my assumption, based on their current performance is that, they will show all those later mentioned positive qualities again and again in the tournament. As of now they have proved themselves to be a great team. What they (RR) should be guarded against themselves is complacency, over confidence and taking for granted the opposition. After all cricket is famous for enacting the most un-likely outcomes to the surprise of every one. And also since every match is fresh and a new one and so naturally what matters is the best performance put up by either team on any given particular day, for a win. But if RR is careful and exhibits and repeats those same winning qualities that made them the best in the IPL tournament so far, then there will be nothing to regret for them but only for rejoicing in the future and of course Shane Warne will remain as that shrewd, highly able, successful and that wonder leader/captain of among all those leaders/captains currently leading other teams!!!

Yes I am really surprised about one thing that why not a single person in all these msgs are turning towards real culprit. Why people here are dragging names like SRK, John Buchanan, PCB etc. These people haven't played in any of the matches, they are just owners and coash which can only say ideal things which players are suppsed to execute. When it comes to blame player in the match ahy nobody sees Ishant Sharma's statistics. He is the most costliest bowlers any franchisee would have bought. This chap has an economy of close to 9-10 and took only 7 wickets in 13 matches tht he played. Not only this, but he has conceded lots of runs in penultimate overs many a times that has cost KKR defeats atleast twice. Moreover, his fielding is terrible and so is his catching. Further to add this, he has conceded runs not only favoring batsman but also a bowler with most number of "extras" in the form of Wides and No balls.

Ishant is a man of few games only even in normal & 50 over matches .. he is not going to last for more time.

Boss you are wrong. Even if mumabi lose all the 2 matches, still in the Nett Run Rate, Mumbai will proceed to semi (not chennai)

RR is the best team till now by indian heights on May 26, 2008 02:23 AM | Hide replies
Rajasthan Royals has emerged as the best team till now. They have beaten CSK 2 times, and if they beat Mumbai on 26th they will create 3 records.
1. They have beaten all the teams atleast once in the tournament 2. 6th win in a row 3. No defeat on their homeland.
All the guys here are talking of different teams to win the tournament. Don't forget RR has done the biggest surprise in this IPL. So RR is the most chances to win.
