I...Amy, once Watson's back, RR will breeze through. I think Watson's the big difference for them this year. Though he cannot bowl, I think Pathan and Watson can chase down 160-180 all by themselves. So post Watson's return, any team that wants to beat RR must atleast score 190+ runs. Very unlikely. RR are my pick to win the trophy again. Gilly-led DC are next. With Kumar and Mahela quietly orchestrating from the behind, Yuvraj who may explode any time, Purple Cap holder Abdulla-Pathan pair to lead the bowling, and 2 very good spinners in Powar-Chawla, KXI are the dark horses. They'd be my third pick for the title. After that, it could be any of DD, CSK, MI or BRCrajnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216862327208974261.post-4208573255543616022009-05-05T16:05:00.000+10:002009-05-05T16:05:00.000+10:00I think DC will almost certainly be in the top 4, ...I think DC will almost certainly be in the top 4, but RR are putting themselves ina tough place, especially considering their NRR. They're certainly in contention for 4th spot, but the way they've been batting might let them down in a close competition.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10861185876518162341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216862327208974261.post-92232968256743989562009-05-05T15:23:00.000+10:002009-05-05T15:23:00.000+10:00Amy, well, wht can I say?

The universe's not fair :-(<br />Nevertheless, I will back DC and RR to show greater character, and sneak through the closely packed top table. Its all close and all about character now - and I will back teams led by Warne and Gilly to show that and sneak through to the semis. From there on, one step to final for both. I'll back them there. Warne vs Gilly in final - tough to call. If Gilly gets going, no magic by Warne will work. Else, Warne's team will sail throughrajnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216862327208974261.post-53540372431696990222009-05-05T07:16:00.000+10:002009-05-05T07:16:00.000+10:00Raj, HAHAHAHAHA.

Only in your dreams, Amy, only in your dreams(and Maithreyo's and leela's !).<br />No way they are putting it past Adam C Gilchrist, the sainted aunt. There are atleast two teams which one can safely gloat over and be confident that they wont let you down - one of them is DC. DC all the way today. ACG to become the first IPL batsman to score two centuries in IPL. A drubbing for Chennai. At the best, a close loss for Chennai. or if Gods are kind, a washed out match and one point for Chennai. If the match is completed, then 2 safe points for Deccan Chargers is what you'll see today.rajnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216862327208974261.post-85034919314327199682009-05-04T22:06:00.000+10:002009-05-04T22:06:00.000+10:00I thought it was a brave move to drop him, and at ...I thought it was a brave move to drop him, and at the time it was a justified one.<br /><br />Do you really want them to win?
