Mumbai Indians have not been able to plan their batting strategy in a proper manner. With Rohit Sharma moving down the order, he is mostly busy in reconstructing the innings rather than creating a solid start up front. On several occasions in IPL-8, the lower order has lifted Mumbai out of troubled starts. Harbhajan, Corey […]

Sometimes matches that are marred by rains, become unfavorable to the side batting second after the Duckworth-Lewis readjustment.

Put into bat first, SRH made a solid start with a 130-run opening stand, dominated by […]

 April 14, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , ,

Any IPL team playing against Royal Challengers Bangalore can come good if they take out Chris Gayle early. The cheap dismissal of the giant West Indian offers the opponents a huge psychological advantage because the guy is capable of wreaking havoc, when he is well-settled. It happened in RCB’s first match against the Kolkata Knight […]

In Tuesday night’s match played at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Shikhar Dhawan won the toss for Sunrisers Hyderabad and asked Kings XI Punjab to bat first. The decision was presumably aimed at precluding the KXIP batsmen to mount their now famous herculean chases. But little did poor Dhawan know that the Big Max was ready for […]
