Poor batting display at death. :no:

Deccan somewhat resemble the KKR as they are mainly dependent on the foreign recruits. :(
 
KXI 46/4 :P The pitch has slowed down it seems. Thats why all batsmen are struggling. DC carried on from the initial Gilly Blitz and Symos sensible 50 to post a decent score on this wicket

What an innings from irfan. It looked like DC would win by 50+ runs finally the margin was only 6 runs. Irfan deserved to win this for KXI. Wish Irfan is back to prime form before IPL ends with the ball too :)
 
Brilliant stand by Irfan, almost took away the game. Looks like all of the pathan efforts are to go waste this season.
 
Match was lost by KXIP well before that final onslaught. It was never gona be enough with the amount of wickets lost initially and with no one to come down the line.

irfan is alright .. yusuf is a flat track one shot bully

yusuf's limitations were exposed badly in RC game. short, slow-short bouncers and he was kept in check.
Thats what happens in international cricket. He tends to get out to short balls. And that is serious limitation.

Lets see how he does in rest of the IPL. I am 100% sure he will be getting lots of short bouncers from here on even in IPL :P

Irfan is ok. He had lost his swing, but it seems to be back. Now he needs discipline with the swing.

It was well known fact that Yusuf is susceptible to short ball. Sachin missed a trick by not giving an over to Malinga to stop the Yusuf onslaught and it nearly cost MI the match.:no: But Kumble was ruthless and was well planned to pepper Yusuf with short stuff. Even Vinay Kumar at 125kmph hit his helmet :P

It would be nice if the old Irfan is back. Esp. in T-20's it will lend a great balance to the side :) medium-pace/ fast bowling all rounders are a rare breed.

The same thing that happened to Raina in the last IPL! Hopefully, both of them can improve their techniques which would help India immensely in the Twenty20 World Cup!!
 
Another rubbish performance by KKR. :@

What was the point in Hodge opening while Gayle in dressing room. :no: And lets accept the fact that Manoj Tiwary was a fluke, they need to try the Mandeep Singh or the experienced Vignesh who was sucessful in the ICL.

KKR lost the two matches which they should have won. Now what would they do when chasing 180+ ?? :(
 
15 runs of a PK over. MI 123/6(17) They need a few more from Pollard to reach 160+. Huge six from Pollard.

Edit: Steyn takes Pollard :( Upto Satish and Bhajji to take them to at least 150-155~

^ u need to edit again, satish and harbhajan are gone too!

Zak has smashed 16 of the final over and now they have reached 151 (150-155) :P

MI are one of the best bowling unit in the IPL. Hope they defend it.
