Kohli as RCB Beat Royals

Huge Relief for Kohli as RCB Beat Royals by 9 Wickets in the 22nd Match of IPL-8

Other than their star batting caste, Royal Challengers Bangalore also have an envious bowling line-up that is the most expensive in IPL-8. Until their last match on Friday, RCB’s bowlers were blasted left, right and center. On an average, the celebrated bowlers had leaked 9.55 per over in the four matches, including the one against […]

Mumbai Lose Again But Delhi’s Win at Kotla Comes After Nine Losses on Trot

 April 25, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , , ,

Delhi Daredevils are a different team this IPL season. Until last year, they had big stars in their ranks but they failed to combine as a team. Under JP Duminy, they have performed admirably despite a few losses. It, therefore, came as no surprise that they finally won on their home turf and broke the […]

RCB Sink Again With CSK Batsmen Ruling the Roost in Match # 20 of IPL 2015

 April 25, 2015   R K Gupta

Virat Kohli’s luck is running out. The RCB captain is in a fix with Bangalore acquiring a paper-tiger status. Their line-up looks superb on paper with batting stars like Chris Gayle, Rilee Rossouw, Dinesh Karthik, AB de Villiers and Kohli himself. On the bowling front they have Mitchell Starc, a star performer in the 2015 […]

KKR Lose to Sunrisers on D/L Method in the 19th Match of IPL 2015

 April 23, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , , ,

Sometimes matches that are marred by rains, become unfavorable to the side batting second after the Duckworth-Lewis readjustment. Something like this happened on April 22, 2015 in IPL-8’s 19th game at Vishakhapatnam between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders. Put into bat first, SRH made a solid start with a 130-run opening stand, dominated by […]

A Thrilling Super-Over Victory for KXIP in Match-18 of IPL 2015

 April 23, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , ,

The character of a 20-20 game is such that its results could be dictated by a single individual performance. Cricketers like Brendon McCullum, AB de Villiers, Adam Gilchrist and Chris Gayle have demonstrated that even in 50-over formats. One explosive innings is enough to change the result. Kings XI Punjab rose to a very high […]

Delhi Batsmen Fail Miserably and Gift-Wrap the Third IPL Win for Knight Riders

 April 21, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , , ,

In the 17th match of the 2015 Indian Premier League at Delhi’s Firozshah Kotla ground, Delhi lost the home game to a shoddy batting performance. Once again the KKR pace bowlers, Umesh Yadav and Morne Morkel came up with some superb bowling and caused early damage. As the pitch deteriorated, Piyush Chawala and Sunil Narine […]

IPL-8 Match no.16: At Last, Mumbai Indians Win a Match!

 April 20, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , , ,

After four consecutive defeats in IPL 2015, all that the Mumbai Indians had was the nadir of their morale. Even after the toss, Rohit Sharma looked far from convincing, when he uttered some practiced lines in reply to a question of a media person. Therefore, the victory against the Royal Challengers Bangalore on Sunday night […]

Rahane and Watson Star in Royals’ Emphatic Win Over Chennai Super Kings

 April 20, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , , ,

In the battle between the two hitherto undefeated sides, Royals proved a decisive superiority over Chennai Super Kings, when the two teams met at Ahmedabad’s Motera Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Packed with great batting power, CSK rightly chose to bat rather than slog in the sweltering summer heat of Western India. Only the other day, […]

Andre Russell’s Late Burst Helps Kolkata Carve out a Victory over Punjab

 April 20, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , , ,

Kings XI Punjab failed in their batting yet again. In the 2014 season, Glenn Maxwell had dominated the bowlers of every other side and his explosive batting helped his team hoist huge scores in several matches. That rampaging batting display is clearly missing in IPL’s 8th edition. Though in Saturday’s match against the Kolkata Knight […]

Delhi Draw Decisive Edge From Duminy’s Daredevil Display in IPL’s 13th Match

 April 20, 2015   R K Gupta

, , , , , ,

It was another match that went to the wire. The spectators at the YS Rajasekhara Reddy Stadium in Vishakhapatnam were on their feet, when Sunrisers Hyderabad needed 7 runs from the last two balls of Nathan Coulter-Nile. SRH had Karn Sharma and Praveen Kumar out in the middle to bring them the winning runs, when […]
