Maddy, I dont want to drag this any further. oodAila Deccan pugundhura kUdadhu idhAn ennOda orE latchiyam (AhA idhuvallavA...) now. Suspend hostilities.
As a passing note, which other squads are better than CSK? Why? ( leave out RCB and MI, who are obviously better - even there RCB's batting without Sachin is not at all dependable)
Rooney is a Scouser, and his accent is pure Scouse (still can't frame sentences properly if you watch his interviews). Played for Blue side of Liverpool, Everton (Not a London club). Who are rivals to Liverpool, who are rivals to Manchester united. Made his transfer easier. Not sure how you arrive at Dhoni to Rooney comparison. There's never been a more aggressive, and petulant player than Rooney. He winds-up Everton fans (who still hate him for moving).Quote:

i dont know abt that - but when we didnt have batsmen or bowlers to replace non-performers then i dont think we can call ourselves our a balanced side or good side.....Quote:

Deccan - you can see their bowling has as much failed as ours, and they have the worst last 6 overs record. So, angEyum oNNum perusA illai
The one captain who failed miesrably was Gambhir who should have done much better with Delhi squad - his excuse is that Nehra and Nannes went missing for many matches but still they lost due to bad captaincy and leadership only.
Sanga had Yuvi to deal with. Enough said. Poor Sanga. And their bowling is good only on paper - Lee, Sreesanth, Piyush. Pathan, Powar.
Man by man comparison
Deccan
Gilly vs Hayden - atleast Hayden played one match winning knock. Note: This will change after semis wherein Gilly will come to the party. CSK had the better candidate
VVS/Mohnish vs M Vijay/Parthiv - obviously CSK
Suman vs Badri etc - slight edge for Suman
Rohit vs Raina = equal
Morkel vs Symonds - Symonds by a big margin
Sumanth/Venu vs A Karthik/Ganapathy - equal
Dhoni vs Marsh/Smith - Dhoni
Vaas/Harris vs Bollinger = almost equal
Ojha vs Ashwin - Ojha but Ashwin is not far behind
Harmeet vs Balaji/Tyagi - Harmeet
RP Singh vs Jakati - Jakati slight edge
So, only Symonds and Harmeet singh are huge differences for Deccan, more than made up by CSK's gains in Dhoni, Vijay and Hayden in comparison to counterparts. And Harmeet is any better than Balaji etc? - some credit to Gilly for using him effectively?

We need to bowl better: Muttiah Muralidaran
There are several reasons why we might have missed out on a semifinal berth, but if the truth be told there was only one main reason why we have qualified: the buccaneering brilliance of MS Dhoni. Dhoni had had a patchy tournament by his own high standards leading up to his remarkable undefeated 29-ball 54 against Kings XI Punjab on Sunday evening, but his timely return to form was typical of a natural match-winner who relishes the big occasion.
When the final two overs started with us needing 29 runs it was a tall order. Kings XI held the advantage. But Dhoni stamped his authority on the game, dominating the strike and scoring (he scored an incredible 28 out of the 29 runs scored in those final 10 deliveries).
I was so excited by it all that I think I must have sprinted faster than I have for the past 10 years as he smashed the final six and we all charged onto the field to congratulate him. It was a great night and I will cherish the memories of being part of it for years to come.
While Dhoni was undoubtedly the hero of the night, special mention should also be made for Suresh Raina. His 46 from 27 balls kept us alive after the loss of the openers.
His contributions all season have been brilliant and his consistency over all three seasons show just how good a player he is. Badrinath and Ashwin were also star performers and both deserve plenty of praise.
Now that our first objective of qualifying has been achieved, we need to re-focus on our next game against Deccan. It is going to be a really tough semifinal and we are going to have to be at our very best to beat last year's winners, a side overflowing with talent.
The beauty about a T20 game is that everything depends on your performance on the day. No side is unbeatable and we definitely have a good chance of winning. We need to produce a much better bowling performance than the other night and hopefully our top order will click. Having Dhoni back in form is a huge confidence booster, giving us a much more solid-looking batting unit.

MSD during the toss - we have a lot of players who havent had much of international exposure and havent had the pressure of playing semis/finals etc. If we senior players show different preparations or pressure for such big games it would probably make them also try differently and push a panic button, so i try to keep it simple and take it as any other game :bow: :bow: :bow:
Compare with most captains in this year IPL itself - you can differentiate the Champion :smokesmirk:
kalakkal captaincy.
field settings, shuffling of bowlers
& the way he responds to any situation, way of his expressing things,
you rock man.
