Final of the Champions League!

So next on the cards is the final match between the Trinidad and Tobago and The New South Wales! Before talking about the final match, I would like to mention the perfect win that I witnessed last night by Trinidad and Tobago over the Cape Cobras. More than that, I was spellbound to see an extremely brilliant innings by Bravo who stuck an unbeaten 58 from 34 balls. While watching the match, I was expecting the Cape Cobras to enter the final, especially with the kind of position they were in....

Daredevils Won!

Though the Daredevils were thrashed out from the tournament when they last played their match against the Royal Challengers, the crowd at Kotla ground came in full capacity. This showed the extreme love of the crowd towards their most loved team of the tournament that is unfortunately out of the tournament. The saddest news is that now no IPL team is present in the tournament that is further adding to the wounds of the Indian cricket lovers. But as I said before that Cricket is a religion in...

Drop Dravid at Your Risk – Stated Ajit Wadekar

I know how solid a batsman can be. I am saying these statements because I have seen Rahul Dravid bating like a consistent batsman ion every match. Be it One day International, Test Cricket or the recent T20 formats. He played brilliantly in the latest IPL2 as well as Champions League. Now there are speculations that he might be dropped in the next tournaments because at the end of the day his inclusion on the one day cricket was temporary and not permanent. But the point is that can we...

What Went Wrong with RCB – Duminy!

It was all going very well. A total of 180 from the home side seemed alright. And with a good bowling line up and a weak opposition, a side with a total of 180 on board would always find themselves in a strong position. But there was one thing that came in the way of RCB and its win on the Cape Cobras. It was Duminy! He smashed an unbeaten 99 all over the ground and gave no change to the much experienced RCB bowlers. Jean-Paul Duminy- Yes, that’s the name! He snatched the victory out...

The Wall and his T20 Fundas!

With the inclusion and success of Rahul Dravid in the T20 format, it has been proved that the game is not just about hard hitters and unrealistic shots! The format also needs some people who can play good cricketing shots and know the techniques of this game called cricket rather than just knocking the ball in undecided directions. Of course with Rahul in your side, you can not only ensure that your players would not fall like a pack of cards but also get to see some classic strokes from...

Who will win Champions League T20?

With twelve teams playing for their pride, it is always very difficult to speculate as to who will win the tournament. But with so many cricket fans all over the world, assumptions are bound to exist. Isn’t it? Take one expert comment from my side. Changes for Delhi Daredevils are quiet high to win the tournament. They would like to forget their poor run in the IPL and heal the wounds with the win the Champions League. On the other hand, if we will have a look at the Deccan Chargers,...
