hi friends.after winning the hearts of many people by their attitude even though they were on the losing side,the T & T team finally registered a win against non -other than the champions themselves.
now what that leaves the CSK.
out of the tournament.
just.
just 2 more matches remaining and still no semi-finalist in group B.
NSW versus CSK and cobras versus T&T.
if NSW wins,they go to 6 points and get the top berth and the first to book the semi-final spot which leaves csk thrown out of tournament with only 1 win.
this also affects the other teams too.
T&T will be out as they can get only a max of 4 points but with MI with 5 and nsw with 6,its over.
for MI,just gives them some nervous moment and probably hope the T&T beats the cobras or else they will be due to poor NRR.
if csk wins,NSW wont be out as both will be stuck with 4 points and probably boost the T&T to perform well with still chance of reahcing semis.
as for MI,their place will be guarenteedcuz the only 2 teams giving head ahce are NSW and cobras.
unfortunately for cobras,they have only one choice.win your fight for a spot with 5 points or lose and go out with 3 points.
if T&T wins against cobras,cobras will be out,T&T hope for a better NRR to compete if and only if NSW loses or else it wont do anything to T&T (csk will be out ).
MI will be the happy lot.
if both cobras and NSW wins,MI,T&T & csk will be out.
if either one of cobras or NSW loses,MI will reach semis.
if you actually finish reading and comprehending what i just said and got any headache,i am offline.

CSK is hanging by the thinnest of threads in the tournament. But one good thing now is that either CSK or MI one of the IPL teams would make it to the knockout stages. On the other group it seems very difficult for both the other IPL clubs i.e. KKR and RCB to make it to the next stage.
Cheers!

lol.may be you didn't read my discussion fully and i dont blame you.
the thing is if NSW beats csk and cobras beat T&T,it means nsw wil get 6 points,MI and cobras gets 5 ,csk & T&T wil be stuck with 2 points each.
because MI got poor NRR,they will thrown out infavour of the cobras. and csk,even though they won IPL 4 and last champions trophy,they wont be alowed to go to the next round with just 2 points.
by the way why does CSK gets the most advantage.i means even last time they played the final league match and today to they will be playing the final match in the group .this way even if T&T wins,csk will know by how many margin they should defeat NSW to reach semis.
is it actually fair?
something fishy,Mr.Srinivasan?

Hi
Dhoni is going through bad days of his career. I guess he is loosing his golden touch. He is good and I am sure he will able to gain that touch again. May be in the next international series against England. Well Dhoni wasn't able to do good in champions trophy but hope he will able to do well against England series in India.

MY MY MY .. what an analysis !!!...
I couldnt make head or tail of it but just could understand that CSK on its part needs to win vs NSW and hope other results go their way
anyway only "hope" can do something
cheers to CSK to achieve what they need !!
