Man, Mcculum and Hodge gone.


VAn wyk gone too

9/3

Hope Ganguly plays well.

 

Yashpal out.

Buddhiman Baba tries cheeky and gets out too.

Henriques comes out.

 

52/5

that was not heroism... just a lucky day and nothing more. he is already miles down in confidence and even down with the captaincy pressure.

It was because of the rain, however even without the rain they would have won it, that was the only day so far that i have seen them playing them good.

 

Well Ganguly is doing well but it wouldn't be enough for them to take something from this match! I think Delhi will confirm their place in Semis by today!

 

Ganguly is holding KKR for the moment.

 

Congrats CSK, hope DC will be in top 4

 

Sure buddy...

DC will make to the semis...

 

hope it is true

 

Even Ganguly is now gone.....and the miserable failure of KKR continues with 88/7 in 16 overs!

Another cake walk for DD...I guess!

Thanks for the support

 

Though Agarkar did well with his cameo to take his team beyond 120, Delhi will fancy chasing this down relatively easily. The early wickets dented Kolkata from the outset, and some miserly bowling combined with some poor shot selection put an end to the possibility of a really challenging score. Ganguly made 44, but failed to receive support from the other end as he kept losing partners at frequent intervals. However, his team has something to defend here, and will have to pull off something special to make Delhi struggle here.

I hope Warner plays good today also.. I like his batting style !!

Well Delhi won very easily and I think now they are 100% in Semi Final! Now I think Delhi Have great chance to lift IPL trophy.

 

Well....well....reign in on your horses....my friend, as there would be two games with tough opponents in between reaching semifinals and lifting the trophy, and I fear of law of averages catching up with them.....soon!

With 5 matches in hand for DD, even one win will confirm semi final spot for them.....But to finish on top of the table, they will have to win 4 out of 5 matches.....

 

Remember last time also it was like the same position, It was very strong, and get in to the semis, But lost in the semi itself, How they are playing in the semi and final is the key

As i said before, Anything can happen in T20 cricket. lol

 

Very rightly said...but what happened to KKR...They were just all over the places..

Badluck to SRK...Have their franchise made money this time?

 

Well, The First team to go into the semis in this IPL is Delhi !!

Last time I think Delhi was the last team to qualify for semis !!

7 wins means you are into the semis !!

The reduced canvas of a Twenty20 game is supposed to shorten the gulf between sides but in Johannesburg there was no hiding the difference in quality between the two teams at opposite ends of the table. Another commanding performance from Delhi Daredevils helped them sweep past struggling Kolkata Knight Riders and regain their No.1 spot. After their bowlers, led by Ashish Nehra and Amit Mishra, had restricted Kolkata to a paltry total, the batsmen - led by AB de Villiers - kept the chase in hand and strolled to victory with seventeen balls to spare.

Yes but I think this time they have a good teams and also players are in good form so I think they will win it.

 

That's true. I just hope they continue the same form in the semis as well in the finals too
Anyways, I feel the second team to qualify will be Chennai SuperKings....They also seem to be playing some good cricket this season
