IPL 2014: Official Thread

I also love how there are full match replays on YouTube. I'll be way too tired staying up until 3 or whenever the SunRisers game finishes so I'll just watch the replay tomorrow without finding out the result

Can't believe that Punjab will leave out Shaun Marsh as there is no room. Sehwag should have been forced to skipper as they'll have to play him no matter how useless he'll be.

Now that he's not a Daredevil, expect him to do well.

One can hope. He's never been much use in IPL. A lot of pressure on Mitch in this attack. He and Malinga were outstanding last year as a team, now he's got to do it all.

This you tube stream is high quality, loving it, good to see the BCCI supporting this.

 

[Shatterpoint]

Some awesome fielding.

 

[Cleavy]

what an odd looking pitch/square.

 

[Shatterpoint]

Indeed..

McCullum still in after 4 overs, with a total of 40+. Probably going to hit 200 tonight; good luck chasing that KXIP.

 

[Shatterpoint]

indeed...

 

[Shatterpoint]

Need a wicket

Terrible drop by George. Hard catch but have to get Macca out.

 

[Shatterpoint]

Mitch getting slammed.

 

[Shatterpoint]

And just gets slammed harder.

 

[Doodlesweaver]

Mitch is bowling rubbish!

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Oh dear Bailey.

 

[akkaps]

The amount of runs scored behind the wicket is amazing, example that last six. Looks like the ball is getting there to quick for the batsmen.

 

[Shatterpoint]

Indeed.

 

[Shatterpoint]

70 already in the 6th looks like 200 is on.

 

[Doodlesweaver]

I'd forgotten the relentless hyperbole of 20/20 commentators.

 

[akkaps]

So slow bowling is working, Bailey should bring in The Big Show

 

[Doodlesweaver]

This game feels lost already. Miller and Show will need to open rather then Slowag and Chet.

 

[Shatterpoint]

The white/silver pants of KXIP with the red shirt make their uniform look really amateurish. Like when we'd play on Saturdays with white pants and the club shirt. And with CSK, I always thought they should have a bigger blue influence, would mind seeing blue pants with a yellow shirt.
