Two of Rahul's master strokes yesterday was to play 2 spinners and open the bowling with them. Offcourse Ponting opening the batting would have made his choice of opening with spinners an easy one
but Rahul has been the captain of the IPL so far....

Also the decision to swap his position with Dishanth Yagnik. Selfless!!

And for all the batting records he has, RD was ready to go down the order. Time to think of another player who showed his back to Rayudu.

As i said earlier. It is good that MI to get such a drubbing in the first half of the league matches. Could get the priorities straight.
Plus, I am repeating it again it is CSK's match to lose today. All the best DD

The problem for MI has been the openers. Especially the overseas captain. If an overseas captain doesn't perform, he not only spoils the team's progress but also blocks the place of another foreign player who is waiting to come in. Someone like Dwayne Smith would've got MI some flying starts and SRT could've taken time to settle. Now they are burdening the middle order.

I think that's true......Not just Dwayne, MI also has the likes of Maxwell and Oram who can be handy...
IPL is designed in such a way that having an overseas captain might be a disadvantage, especially if he is out of form
