Cricket-Match-Special ... A forum for discussion

It is back friday, seems like ages since the last one, of all the domestic t20 comps its by far my favourite, hopefully my side the sunrisers can do better this year!!

We are underway...RCB choose to bat first against rcb and are 33-0 after 3 overs

Mustafizur took a four for to set up victory for Chennai.

My team SRH in action today...and on the end of a Russell show....kkr 153-6 in the 17th over....Russell 31* from 14 balls

Russell 64* from 25!

Rare failure from Nitish Rana today...used to give himself a cheeky bowl when he was captain last year...wonder if iyer gives him an over or two today with plenty on the board

Pooran 64* from 41 in a losing cause.

Not convinced by Hardik's captaincy today....bumrah only bowled one in the powerplay, wood only bowled one in powerplay and bowled a lovely first over....bowls himself two in the powerplay even though he got tap, and didnt seperate enough of the spinners overs....coetzee was the 7th/8th bowler on...pointless over bowled by Naman...wonder what Rohit is thinking?!

Hardik followed that up by promoting 2 players ahead of himself in the batting order and ended up giving himself too much to do. Brevis and Varma got themselves bogged down and ended up scoring at 6 an over for 5 overs, then when he could have gone in himself, Hardik chose to send in David who took 6 more balls to get to 11 than Hardik later did, and they lost by 6 runs. Those extra 6 David balls could have won Mumbai the game

Hopeless captaincy.... he needs to sharpen up, tbh

I still find it utterly astonishing that in India, a T20 match can last 4 hours

crikey.... what on earth do they find to do for the extra hour and a quarter? Even the England test team at their worst can get through more than 40 overs in 4 hours

Thank goodness I don't have to watch this stuff. If I was at these games, I'd probably get so frustrated that I'd start walking around the ground between overs for something to do..... and I could probably do it if I walked very fast

MI lost the match needing 43 from 30 balls with 7 wickets intact. Hardik Pandya should let the specialist bowlers bowl ahead of hi with the new ball.

SKY had failed the first fitness test. No update yet about the second fitness test which was supposed to be on 21st March. Mumbai needs him for sure in this format.

Kohli hits yet another half century.

Mike has shamar Joseph pulled out?
