I like gambir he he seems to be a good captain in last IPL. But what i noticed in the match against DD was he was poor in his captaincy. During bowling, they had to look for some early wickets. but i hadn't seen a attacking fielding from gambir. Lee was bowling to the ribs of sewag which was a good thinking by lee. but gambir had to place a fielder to catch those shots. During the end of the match, as only two bowwlers can bowl 3 overs, I though gambir should give 3 overs to lee and kallis who were much experienced. but gambir gave 3 overs for de Lange other than kallis and de Lange went for 17 runs in 10th over.Also batiya who bowled well a over which had given away only 4 runs and took the wicket of sewag, had got the next chance only in last over.About fielding setup,gambir was not interested in blocking quick singles. What is your views?

Actually the main losing point for the KKR's were that their batting was not upto the performance. They were very poor in the batting performance. Gautam gambhir must have not expected this performance from his team mates.

yes. the batting performance from KKR was very poor. only shukla and das batted little bit.
