The IPL points table is finally giving us some justice because karma is hitting these teams hard🙂
If you look at the bottom of the table
We have a team that lacked the basic respect to keep a 5-time trophy-winning captain. They sacked a legend, opened the checkbook to buy another team's captain out of nowhere, and then magically the retention rules changed just so they could protect their Indian core. You can’t buy chemistry, and you certainly can’t buy class.
Then there’s the team that refuses to evolve because their entire identity is tied to one man. Instead of building for the future, they’d rather lobby for logic-defying rule changes like labelling players who retired years ago as uncapped just to keep them on the roster. It’s not strategy it’s a desperate attempt to cling to the past.
And don't forget the side that let go of the very captain who dominated the league and brought them silverware. No loyalty, no respect, just cold calculations that backfired.
You can lobby the board, you can twist the retention rules, and you can buy all the star talent you want. But at the end of the day, the game of cricket has a way of humbling the arrogant.
I've already Said - RCB, PBKS, RR and LSG /GT are strong team and brings some competition otherwise MI, CSK are Minnow teams their fans made hype up .
Before used to be their time, but now it’s the era of the new teams. God gives everyone a chance 🙏🏼
🚨🚨RCB vs CSK IS NO LONGER A REAL RIVALRY
Whenever an RCB fan says something to CSK fans, they immediately show the head-to-head record and say that CSK has won more matches against RCB. It’s the same typical Pakistani fan logic. In H2H records, even Pakistan is ahead of India, but that doesn’t mean Pakistan is a better team than India.
It’s the same case with CSK. Yes, CSK has defeated RCB many times in the past, but as of now, RCB is a superior team compared to CSK. CSK has become like the Pakistan team, all hype, but no performance.
Now RCB vs CSK match feels like an India vs Pakistan, existing only for the sake of the name and viewership. CSK can literally lose to any team, just like Pakistan.
Tough to decide on whom to drop to get Brevis in CSK XII..
I feel, Kartik Sharma has lot of potential - he should be given chances - he can be another Mukul Choudary.
But one of Prashanth Veer or Kartik Sharma will be dropped, that's for sure.
Thoughts ?!..
🚨Breaking News-
Spencer johnson likely to join team CSK on April 25th or 26th. But won't be available for selection till May 6th or 7th
Why CSK selected him in the squad is still a mystery 😔
