Perfect display by CSK!!
by Aparna Mehrotra on Jun 01, 2008 03:24 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Today, CSK were unbeatable...they would have beaten even a rampaging Rajasthan Royals had they played them today.....simply perfect display of bowling, fielding and batting!!

Appreciate the fact that Dhoni, Badrinath, Morkel were not even required to bat....in hindsight, CSK might even have easily chased down 170 odd....

Having said that, a total humiliation was avoided by Pawar and Moto...especially Moto who batted sensibly..without Wilkis Moto, i don't think Kings 11 would have even reached 75!!

Even though i don't see it as a MSD vs Yuvraj rivalry, there are some people who see it that way and in that MSD is 3-0 up over Yuvi....Yuvraj is unnecessarily shooting himself in the foot by desiring the captaincy publicly, he needs to shut his mouth up...cos that only gets the best out of Dhoni and spurs him to go that extra mile when he sees Yuvi on the opposite side..

Having said that, if CSK retain the form they exhibited today, it is gonna be a very interesting clash against Rajasthan royals..too close to call and i'll put it at 50-50...

It's Powar not Pawar.

Whatever Powar scored he let CSK off the initial pressure in the early overs, gave lot of width and unnecessary flight in his deliveries. That helped parthiv score boundaries easily and that set the tone for parthiv & raina partnership.

That's the way he bowls - flighting the ball is his strength, and he purchases wickets for runs. The captain knew when he tossed him the ball. The gambit failed.
