Delhi own devils...

shared by straight point on Wednesday, May 14, 2008

or what you would call it...

i thought somebody told 3d bats that they had to score 130 odd runs in 15 over itself...otherwise what could be the explanation of shots they all played?

best moment that sums up the situation came when Dhawan played ball back to dinda who throwed the ball back to him and there were some heated glances exchanged...dilshan sensing the mood of dhwan went up to him to calm him down and play according to the situation...but what happened next ball? he just swayed his bat across the line and got bowled...

mindless...like they all were...

i discussed with good friend Soulberry that KKR are leaving it too late to up the tempo and got away with DC the other day...and 3ds have to hit hard at this strategy of theirs...they did exactly the same and restricted KKR to almost walk away total...

perhaps then they decided to make the match more interesting and chase down the total in 15 overs itself...

but whatta come back by Shoaib!!

i think this T20 format will suit him more than anything coz he just have to bowl 4 overs of full throttle...and he did exactly the same...

but at the same time, more than his pace or accuracies of bowls...i think 3ds got intimidated by his presence and tried to out bowl him and thats where they lost the match...by playing some inexplicable shots...

which brings me down to the question which i wanted to ask for long but i think this is the best moment...

how can a captain rap his batters to play rash stroke or preferring their 'natural' play over team demand...when he repeatedly does the same?

i think in the answer of this is hidden the solution of 3ds problem...

what say?


PS: Was it only me who noticed that the captain who was looking to win the match appeared far more tensed than the captain who was loosing it...? infact sehwag was smiling like they were cruising to victory...
