Pakistan's bowler selection deserves scrutiny. Shinwari has SR of 23 in last 2 years, bettered only by Rashid K among bowlers who have taken 22 wkts or more. He averages 1.9 wkts per game which insanely good. Would walk into any team in the world. Pakistan? Doesn't make the squad

De Kock's 'principled' stand, at best, is for pure ignorance.
That's what he stands for if he did indeed refuse to play.

This is great for punters. Continues the myth. Kohli's strike rate today was NOT elite. And in the context of a one-off game, no way near good enough. Four KKR players scored faster and 3 more on his own side. He will cost RCB and India.
You have to say

Rohit says the pitch "looks on the slower side". Williamson confirms it's a "used surface". A reminder that the pre-WC agreement was the Mumbai semi would be on a fresh pitch, and that the late change took place behind the back of ICC pitch consultant Andy Atkinson.

A great punting lesson that game. Never underestimate pro athletes. The best are the best for a reason. Because they put it in regardless. RCB were jollies because they would be trying harder to win. Utter nonsense
"RCB are favourites for this one. The rationale for those odds is that they will be trying harder to win than GT. Really? The chance to take on an unreliable RCB against the best team this IPL at odds against should be taken." ~

If India win this, Rahane gets match gong. Perhaps if he'd played in the first 2 this wouldn't be a dead game. He's hugely underrated when on the road for some reason. Remember some analysis a while back that showed he was better value than Kohli for top series bat
