That&#39;s why I started with warne and the royals and called out yusufs effort as &quot;in part&quot;. However to be fair , warne had a hit and miss - jhunjhunwalas over to open was a disaster. Also imagine if they had lost Yusuf at 23 runs in 16 balls - could have been very different as they are prone to collapses in batting rather easily (which I predict will happen in the next match ).<br /><br />Onward to the best of the worst now ....12th manhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09207469644973929475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939399692528983505.post-50566211845420405112010-03-27T05:05:11.859-07:002010-03-27T05:05:11.859-07:00Yusuf&#39;s innings was outstanding no doubt, and our dear friend Mr. Teri Maa Ki still hasnt figured out that he should keep his not unfoul trap shut! <br /><br />That said, in my mind, Warne&#39;s captaincy won this game - taking out Gilchrist in the 1st over not by LUCK, but a specifc bowling strategy would have charged up his team right from the beginning. And many of them found a piece of inspiration thereafter - Jhunjhunwala&#39;s run outs, Warne himself, Lumb &amp; Ojha&#39;s start...<br /><br />Job well done! <br /><br />Moving onto today - a very critical game indeed. I think Punjab need to go all out on this one, to do that, they have to throw the Brett Lee die. That means bench Jayawardene and more responsibility for the batsmen. Should not drop Theron (bowling is as it is weak), so another risky call (but one that i think they should make) is Bopara out, Marsh in. Need to go hard at KKR and hope the latter crack. <br /><br />For KKR, i read Dada&#39;s article today - there is a lot of steel there today. Well, i cant ever be a fan of KKR (and whilst i like to rib Dada, have tons of respect for him), so this might just be the day i agree<br /><br />In any case, all of the above factors on both sides should combine today to give us a hard fought, aggressive game of cricket!alokehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00437989245116335032noreply@blogger.com
