That's how Dhoni PR works.

well today Mr 'Dhoni would never, ever drop him' managed 5 scoring shots in 18 PP deliveries faced.

CSK continue to flounder at the bottom end of the table

I can't imagine why

Shikhar Dharwan did not deserve to be on the losing side today.

Some Indian cricketers like Shubman Gill , Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Dhawan are boosting their own scores but the way they have scored comes at a cost. Selfish innings by these players.

Dhoni's post match interview was of double standards. CSK is failing at succesion planning.

If Kane Williamson is the highest scorer in your T20 team you know you've had a bit of a shocker.

Jofra Archer is the Kane Williamson of bowling.

Performing very well in a losing side.

ABDV steals the headlines....but Chris Morris put in yet another impressive performance today.

Dhawan's century today was the first one in the second innings of an IPL game since Shane Watson vs SRH in 2018.

Humiliation as Mohammed Siraj (of all people) humbled Kolata to 84-8 - a chase even Bangalore couldn't screw up.

Siraj looked like one of the master bowlers of our generation as he got 2 maidens and three wickets. No bowler has got 2 maidens in an IPL game until today.

Manish Pandey has to be the most under rated players in IPL history.

I have just discovered that Quainton De Kock and Jasprit Bumrah play for the same team. Having read the scorecard of Rayudu - c De Kock, b Bumrah for 2.

If Kenneth Williams was alive to witness this...
"Stats are there to be broken" Dominic Cork
"They took all our players away, banned our captain and we still came away with a ten-wicket victory" Jason Gillespie
"You won't get anywhere slouching about half out of bed" Geoffrey Boycott

Hyderabad requiring 20 runs off the last 3 overs for victory decided to score 7 runs for the loss of 6 wickets instead

odd choice.... what was wee Davey thinking? :halo:
