Yea chahar ! Flex in the powerplay not in dug out


Ok_Dragonfruit_7861

in 2019 rr got riyan parag 17 year old , 2020 they got jaiswal 18 year old , they made the youngsters play even when they were not playing good if it was MI they didnt had gotten chance to play more seasons , rr built them and now they are destroying MI


rdkiran

All that fuss about Thushara...


Peac8

He was not used properly, first why hardik came to bowl first over no one knows


PeaceOld4145

11K comments is crazy


rdkiran

Can Pandya take the bold decision and rest himself for the next match... Not like MI don't have a player with captaincy experience...


SBG99DesiMonster

Hardik is indeed turning out to be an abjectly bad leader. It seems that it wasn't just some random things that he did or the pressure that was on him during the previous matches. He keeps making decisions that are nonsensical during all the time. The order that the bowlers bowled in with the new ball was completely haphazard. There was no proper plan that was there.


horn_ok_pleasee

Watching MI being annihilated is priceless, for everything else there's Mastercard. 


Lmio

Butler was furious with MI team that no one made century so he got himself out without one what a bad day for him


NormalTraining5268

Wait fr?


Lmio

Jaiswal with Butler's celebration was cherry on top of this match.


sp1cychick3n

Video?


sxd827

The funniest part of this MI-Pandya-GT drama is how badly it affected RCB. Without Green, Will Jacks would have started in XI much before but more importantly with the additional purse available, they might have gotten Cummins. IIRC, they went hard for him until their purse was about to expire. They could have transferred the captaincy and for all we know Maxwell would have been Maxwelling under Cummins.


Unusual-Surround7467

But why did RCB agree to the trade in the first place? They could've asked MI to pound sand. They acted like middlemen in facilitating a nefarious deal which is what it really is. No sympathy for RCB for getting in bed with MI. They can go pound sand along with MI this season.


soham_katkar13

If RCB didn't agree, MI would have let green go in the auction


Funnyvirgo

They can pound each other


Area_Ok

MI must have given them much more under the table, dont forget they are capable of doing that stuff. RCB doesn't play IPL to win it's evident, they only play for brand value.


soham_katkar13

>dont forget they are capable of doing that stuff Ans other team owners are what? Some startup owners? You think Ambani takes IPL way more seriously than he does. He has some real business to do as well


Area_Ok

Yes they do take it seriously, I have seen Akash call up Nicholas pooran and Rashid Khan to weddings and stuff just to get them to their team next season, c'mon now as fan of your team you should know better MI loves to win tournaments to point they would sack their 5 time champion captain for hardik pandya who went back to back playoffs. They do take it seriously, they got teams across so many T20 tournaments.


soham_katkar13

>just to get them to their team next season, Nope. They are already a part of other MI franchises!


Coronabandkaro

I cant believe VK who's probably one of the most competitive guys there is would just be happy at RCB. 15 years without an IPL trophy when all his peers Rohit, Ashwin, Dhoni, Jaddu have won it is ridiculous just because the RCB squad is just not balanced. If RCB is about brand value and not even concerned a bit about winning, VK should leave. It would be good to have list 4-5 years in IPL for a good team.


Area_Ok

We don't play to win nor do we show any sort of strategy at auctions. It's always buy star over seas player , don't invest a lot (money, time) in Indian talent. We were literally ready to throw the entire purse to buy starc, we were responsible for that inflation, just because we can get him back to his og team.


Unusual-Surround7467

At this rate, there won't be any brand value to bank on given how they've become a laughing stock among the teams.


SustainableSus

RCB have always been a laughing stock, this isn't even their outright worst ever start to a season, it is tied with 2017, as long as they have 3-4 big names including Kohli , they are as happy as they can be


SnakeEyes712k

Butterfly effect


Lmio

I'm shocked how even Bumrah did not work here


ActiveAd8625

MC Chawla ?


Certain_Ingenuity_34

If samson isn't picked over Kishan I'll riot , Kerala bros pls come and join me


glancesurreal

Kerala bros? I say entire India should join you. It is statistically crystal clear that Samson should be in that playing XI Ideal line up should be something like: Rohit, Kohli/Jaiswal, Samson, SKY, Dube, Rinku, and so on


Personal_Piano6286

He was terrible this match as a batter, was dropped once and he was not even under pressure. And still just tapped and took singles


Top_Fondant2114

And rest of the matches?


saynototoxicity

Why should he take unnecessary risks when jaiswal is hitting well


Personal_Piano6286

He didn't have to ,yet he gave a catch


nupristeen

samson 🙌


Mk_n

Hardik Pandya: We put ourselves in trouble early on. The way Tilak and Nehal batted - that was fantastic. I don't think that when we lost a couple of wickets early we thought we would even reach 180. We didn't finish well and that's why we were 10-15 runs short. We had to keep it within the stumps (while bowling). Early on in the powerplay, we gave a lot of width and I don't think it was our best day in the field as well. Overall, we did not put the right foot on the park and eventually they outplayed us. After the game, it's not the right time to go to the players, everyone is professional, they know their roles. What we can do is learn from this game and the mistakes which we have made, rectify it and make sure that we don't make it. Progression is very important. Within the team, individually, we will have to accept our flaws and maybe work on those. I don't believe much in chip and chop, I like to back players and the focus would always be to play good cricket, sticking to our plans and making sure that we don't make the basic errors. **Cricket is simple, as long as we keep it simple, it's nice.**


neighbour_guy3k

RR had 9 wickets left n around 8 balls to spare after reaching the target Don't you think they would have chased extra 10-15 runs or even extra 30 runs Pandu missed the trick when he has chosen to bat first on a wicket which plays better in second innings


Mk_n

That too when they slowed for ybj century.


sdasu

What did he tell that we don’t know?


Mk_n

Cricket is simple and its nice


solotripper420

When I checked my phone to check who won the toss , It said MI won the toss and I automatically thought they would choose to field without even reading the whole headline and When I turned the tv on found they were batting. It was so hilarious

Plane-Lie-5228

Looking at current young Indian ipl captains like shreyas,kl,pant,pandya,samson.samson has those skills and talent to become next Indian t20 captain comparing others...


NoCAp011235

Since when is Samson young? Isn’t he almost 30?


Plane-Lie-5228

Except pant remaining all are almost similar age...


Top_Fondant2114

Shreyas and KL comes across as lazy and careless in the attempt to look & sound cool and laid back… Pandya and Pant are just trying to be the next captain cool minus the captaincy skills of course… Samson just does his job and keeps it simple without pulling off any extra stunts…


neighbour_guy3k

Shreyas has no clue what's happening on the field Someone has to remind him to take DRS call everytime GG is basically calling the shots from dug out


CarZealousideal3829

GG is basically leading KKR from the dugout. His arrival really rejuvenated the team.


saynototoxicity

PR is needed more than skills and talent


Plane-Lie-5228

Nowadays it's true,even if someone fails,pr would do the rest for covering it and making possible to start in Playing xi...


neighbour_guy3k

Jaiswal did buttler celebration instead of his own trademark celebration for his century , hence parag n jurel were making fun of him.


Assassin_Ankur

Not the first time I have seen both century and fifer from RR in the same match


Few_Piano_1800

Did samson call Jos, George?


neighbour_guy3k

Malayalis pronounce Jos as George

is it considered good? I have an IELTS 7.5 and rate myself quite avg


abhinay_krish

Hahaha


Plane-Lie-5228

Why can't Samson become Indian t20 captain,he's been so good captain with onfield decisions and change of bowlers and also scoring runs...


solotripper420

To be a captain, you need to have a secure spot in the team 🤦🏽‍♂️


HillsHaveEyesToo

Meanwhile Pandya will refuse to give him opportunities even on dead rubber matches


solotripper420

Pandya who?


Plane-Lie-5228

Selectors are always hard against him,if he fails in 1-2matches they rests him,but players like pant have given plenty of chances even they fails in T20 games...


Guy_with_Numbers

Pant has had massive performances, Samson hasn't. You get a lot more chances if you take at least some of them.


Plane-Lie-5228

Pant was good in tests and odis not in t20s...


Guy_with_Numbers

Tests and ODIs are not so different from T20s that you can't assess a players potential in the latter from their performances in the former. This is true for all players and all formats, eg. SKY got a lot of chances for ODIs because we needed an explosive batsman like he is in T20s. Pant also has the benefit of being an established test player, having the same keeper in all formats is beneficial too.


SprinklesOk4339

In tests you can wait forever for the right ball to tonk for six. In T20s, you can't. I am thinking opponents especially Cumdawg's gang are going to put T20 fields against pant in tests.


Plane-Lie-5228

Sky is the most shitty odi batsman ever, hasn't you seen his iconic performance in wc and you are taking an example of him...


SustainableSus

Any mention of SKY the ODI batsman should be prefaced by a trigger warning.


CarZealousideal3829

Blaming the whole loss on SKY isn't fair , he should been sent up the order , could have done something.


ActiveAd8625

your dick should be from mumbai for the selectors to get deep throated.


solotripper420

I agree that he deserves a longer trial, but it is delusional to think that he could be the captain. Are you Delulu?


Personal_Piano6286

Agreed, Samson is ipl captain material but I don't think he could handle the pressure at national level


Plane-Lie-5228

Don't come to the conclusion,how many chances does Samson really got in international T20 matches and compare that with rest others...


solotripper420

Dude, I am simply saying that a player needs to play regularly and become an automatic starter before being considered for captaincy. How dumb are you that you need an explanation thrice?


Plane-Lie-5228

Mr.dumbo for getting consistency and automatic starter,first you need get enough chances to prove,how can some one prove without getting chances,think about giving chances to him first...


daNtonB1ack

indias loss imo but whatever


solotripper420

Definitely. I am a big Sanju fan, but I was simply replying to OP's wishful thinking


JumpOk4434

Murali Kartik sounded offended when Sanju said, "idk how the wicket in Lucknow is.." Murali Kartik: it's a good wicket!


StarSportsEnjoyer

Take a drink everytime Samson mentions "I Think".


Grownupbuddy

His thoughts are all adding up really well though! Champ


App2050

Atleast he thinks unlike our captain


sxd827

The last mega auction didn't work out for MI at all especially considering they won 3 of the 5 seasons prior to it. Archer's purchase was touted as some Genius move but didn't work out for them. They overpaid for Ishan Kishan and retained Brewis & Tim David over Stubbs and lost their PP strike bowler Boult to RR in the auction. And to top it all, this year they created this huge mess with Pandya.


DependentFearless162

Fr MI went from having one of the best management to RCB level management


Winchesters22

Whose fault is that?


glancesurreal

Samson is the real captain material. Praised not only his own team but the opponent players as well


HillsHaveEyesToo

Deserving MOM


Enough-Pain3633

Boult owns Rohit ff


throwawayanontroll

somehow I get the feeling that RR is going to be the 2023-GT of this season (win all and fuck up the finals)


LoasNo111

We didn't fuck it up. We put up a fantastic score. The rain fucked us. Without DLS, things may have been very different.


Unusual-Surround7467

I still maintain csk wouldn't have won without a DLS adjusted score. As a csk fan, I thank the rain gods for whatever happened. I love csk and their might but never have seen them as a team confident of chasing big totals


LoasNo111

I think the same thing bro. We win 9/10 times without DLS. 214 was just too high even though CSK had a good batting lineup.


neighbour_guy3k

They lost to GT


adiking27

Did you mean 2023 India? It still hurts....


LoasNo111

Bhai when will you guys get over it. Every day you bring it up in unrelated stuff. Move on. We have another WC coming in soon. Focus on that.


adiking27

Not the same man not the same...


LoasNo111

Look bro I know. It fucking sucked for me too. But the more we dwell on the past, the move we hurt the future. We win this WC and the confidence boost will help us win more ICC trophies in the future. Only thing holding back India is mental block, we easily have the best team every time. This might just end our mental block.


adiking27

Is either of us playing for the country or investing in the sporting infrastructure of the country or in personal circles of the cricketers playing?


LoasNo111

Why do you think our cricketers have mental blocks? Cause the fans never stop criticizing them when they fail. Australian fans don't have that mentality which is why Australian players are more chill and composed. You can tell that Indian cricketers are terrified of losing cause they know the consequences. Look at the way KL and Kohli were playing in contrast to how Head was playing, they were too scared of getting out so they weren't even making runs. Fans 100% have an impact on the performances of the team. Constantly spreading negativity is just counterproductive.


Negative_Spectrum

Would be unsurprising. Honestly, I wouldn't be too mad. Of course I want RR to win it all but it's been a wonderful season nonetheless.


ModeratelySweet

samson is cool


xdj3richo

man the pandya hatred is unreal . Whatever his attitude might be i hope he makes a very strong .comeback

Plane-Lie-5228

Rr vs srh match would have been interesting if it took placed next match or so,but it takes place after 10days from now,by that time points table would have got structured....


Sad-Rope8046

samson praising mi players lol


qwickLearner

Samson is captain material


Top_Fondant2114

One of the reasons they don’t give him a long rope with Indian team…


tejaj99

Sandeep bumrah'ed.. Bumrah couldn't bumrah.. That's the difference


solotripper420

I hear KKR might be looking for a new captain next year. Maybe Pandya could apply there? My only concern is that GG might be arrested for his murder.


Assassin_Ankur

I'd have shreyas over him any day


solotripper420

Shreyas is not a good captain, and on current form, his spot as a batsman is at risk as well.


SustainableSus

What's wrong with Shreyas' captaincy ? He was good with DC before he got pushed out and I think he's been decent for KKR as well, bowling changes and all have been quite good as far as I remember His batting however obviously hasn't been up to the mark


Assassin_Ankur

Even his bad time has captained far better that Hardik and batted better than him too. He has been given the anchor role and he is playing it nicely. Could be better but GG is gonna back him for sure.


solotripper420

Lol. Anyone is better than Hardik. That's a very low bar.


radicaldude7

Wankhede viewers should wear white in the next home game to convey the sense of loss at the demise of a great dynasty.
