MI 2020 didn’t need an impact player cushion!

@_tryptophan_w @PantVerse If we are counting CLT20 🏆 and WPL 🏆 too, then MI has 9 🏆 (and that’s not even counting their other franchise 🏆 in MLC, SA20 & ILT20)
English
@PantVerse CSK has 7 trophies
RCB mens+ women will have 4 if they win this year
Still 3 short
English
If RCB wins this season, they’ll have more trophies than Kolkata Knight Riders and will need just 1 more to equal Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings 💀
RCB’s growth in the last 2 years needs to be studied ngl 😭🔥🔥
English
From 2011 to 2017, RCB had Gayle, Kohli & ABdV in the same team, along with Chahal. 2014-15 they had Starc too, and 2016-17 they also had Watson, and KL in 2016. Yet they won zero 🏆 in those 7 seasons, when MI & CSK combined won 4 out of 7. How much more “prime” did they need?
Ishan Ghosh¹⁷🇮🇳@PantVerse
I have a genuine question… would MI and CSK still have 5 trophies if they had faced prime RCB? 😭😭

Talk about tweets aging badly! 🤣🤣
Gujarat Titans@gujarat_titans
First match of the season! High pressure game! And Kulwant gives away only 3 runs in his first over 🫡
English
No way!
MI 2020 were the way they were without the cushion of the impact player. Take away the impact player rule, and the strike rate of every batsman in this RCB team goes down by 20-25. Without impact player, Kohli strikes at 125-130 with RCB scoring 170-180, not 230-240.

I have second thoughts about whether Mumbai Indians 2020 were this good. We are witnessing greatness and probably one more year of the greatest IPL team ever assembled. They have to get the job done on May 31. Else it will be the biggest bottlejob. Just no competition to them.

Same thing again today. Asked Gill twice after he had already said GT were bowling first. And as an “added bonus”, he also said Patidar (RCB) had 20 points from the league stage. His downward slide from screwing up calling the T20 World Cup winning moment has been staggering!
महादादा@mahadada
It’s frankly getting worse. Today at the toss, after Rahane first said they were bowling, after all the questions, at the end Shastri asks Rahane again “so what are you doing after winning the toss?”. And Rahane had to repeat that they’re bowling first. 🤦🏻♂️
English
@MalhotraSaurabh @aayushgarg01 He did that to Rahane too at the KKR vs MI game last week.
English
@aayushgarg01 Asked Gill also what was he doing again after he had already told him he would bowl.

What was Ravi onto at the toss?! Started off with Punjabi in the HP! 🤣

“History” doesn’t secure the financial future of Jofra Archer and his family. His IPL salary does.
Dave Nosworthy@DONCRICKET
WHAT DO YOU THINK, any truth in this…: Sir Ian Botham: “History remembers legendary Test careers not Franchise triumph’s…” 🧐🏏👌 Personally I lean towards being on the same page as #IanBotham - as can’t even remember who won the last 3 years #IPL Tournaments - yet, I do remember that @BeefyBotham scored just under 20000 1st Class runs and 1172 1st Class wickets in 402 matches in his career at @SomersetCCC @WorcsCCC and @DurhamCricket 👏🏏😳 #cricket

@rajatahir27 As proud as a father is of his son, this tweet was nothing but veiled sarcasm at the LSG team management (and of course at Goenka) for not playing Arjun earlier in the season.
English
If you read this tweet without looking at the IPL table, you’d think LSG just qualified for the playoffs.
And if you read it without looking at the scorecard, you’d think Arjun just bowled a double-maiden hat-trick to save the franchise.
Reality: LSG finished dead last at the bottom of the table, and the boy bowled a 1/36 spell.😭💀
Sachin Tendulkar@sachin_rt
Well done, Arjun. ❤️ Proud of the way you’ve carried yourself through this season, always believing in your ability, staying patient, working hard quietly, and remaining positive despite having to wait for your opportunity till the very last match. Cricket tests patience as much as skill, and you handled both beautifully today. Keep your feet on the ground, and continue being in love with the game like you always have. Love you always.👏

@KishoreKV @FarziCricketer If you want TV commentary, sit at home and watch it on the TV. Why waste your time and money going to the stadium only to listen to the terrible TV commentary?
English
@FarziCricketer Single best thing that could improve match viewing experience in a stadium is to have the TV commentary piped in, instead of the obnoxious DJs babbling inane shit every ball.
English
@APTalksCricket That is probably neutralized by GT’s inability to chase 15 in 2 overs vs RR in their second game.
English
If Miller took that single with 2 needed off 2
SRH would have sealed their Top 2 berth today.

Don’t think CSK were favorites at all, never mind overwhelming, considering MI’s momentum and string of results coming into the final. Including hammering CSK in Qualifier 1.
Anuj Nitin Prabhu@APTalksCricket
CSK were OVERWHELMING favorites. But after losing Parthiv early..Rohit Sharma decided to counter punch the best bowling attack and bamboozled them. CSK just never recovered. 2015 was the one true instance of MI captain "bulldozing" CSK in an IPL final.
English
This has got to be the most absurd BS. Dhawan didn’t voluntarily “sacrifice” his place. Not the like the selectors picked him and he declined the offer to say “pick Gill in my place”. As long as Rohit is fit and scoring runs, there’s no reason he should be “sacrificing” anything.
AdityaRRaj@RR_for_LIFE
Just like Dhawan sacrificed his place for Shubman Gill and didn't even utter a word when he was dropped less than a year before the WC, Rohit should do the same for Jaiswal.
English
Something is seriously wrong with Ravi Shastri. Twice now in about 2 overs, he referred to a prospective MI total as 240 and 250 before correcting himself to say 140 and 150. #KKRvMI

Rohit’s 15(13) and Surya’s 15(6) were still way better innings than Tilak’s “let me assess conditions first” innings of 20(32).
Anuj Nitin Prabhu@APTalksCricket
Ryan "let me clear square leg on every ball" Rickelton Rohit "I can assess conditions but let me show intent" Sharma Suryakumar "strike rate of 300 is not enough I have to get to 600" Yadav You had to assess conditions. Now you are 4 down even before Narine warms up Excellent
English
Never mind the “make it up later”. Piss poor from Tilak Varma. Can’t be 20(32) even in an ODI these days, let alone a T20 game, no matter how tough the pitch!
महादादा@mahadada
He may yet make up if he stays the full 20 overs, but this is an extremely poor innings so far from Tilak Varma. Yes, the pitch is tough to bat on, but not that tough that you’d be 19(29). He has serious problems against quality spin. #KKRvMI
