Indian Premier League 2024 (22nd March-29th May)

[NYRB]

When McGurk comes back to the Gades for the next BBL, surely they use him as an opener to maximise his potential?

 

[NYRB]

Delhi 50 up in 16 balls.

 

[NYRB]

Fraser-McGurk brings up his 50 runs up in 15 balls.

 

[NYRB]

Clarke agrees with me, he reckons McGurk is a better bat at the opening position than at number 3.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Melbourne Renegades are in for a decade of 'must-watch' batting................with Fraser-McGurk.

Big ground and generally bit in it for the bowlers, he won’t average 6 for the Gades lol

Power play specialist

You’d almost have to drop Warner for the World Cup and go Head and JFM as openers on form.

There is no reason why he couldnt do this in red ball cricket.

Probably why he’s at the Renegades and not the Stars.

Will Australia be prepared to make that decision? Im leaning towards 'yes'. He is keeping Warner out of this Delhi team.

I think he’ll struggle away from roads myself but hope your right.

Probably not Australia are a boys club

Porel needs to stop hitting a single off the last

 

[NYRB]

Tim Davids crap fielding on show again..........

 

[Snarls Barkley]

I’ve got footy to watch but 78 off 24 is outrageous

Sort of getting sick of these 220+ games. Should be the outlier not the norm, got to give the bowlers a chance

 

[NYRB]

JFM departs for 84 off 27 balls. Chawla gets him.

Thank you for lighting up my night Jake.

 

[NYRB]

26 Runs off Woods last over. Stubbs took a liking for him.

 

[NYRB]

Delhis highest ever IPL score * at 239/4 with 7 balls to go.

 

[NYRB]

Bumrah is the bench of bowling in this comp. He got 35/1 off his 4 overs tonight.

going a tad under 9 an over as bowler on these wickets is considered to be 'excellent'

 

[NYRB]

Delhi finish on 257/4 against Mumbai .Stubbs has a bit of AB De Villiers about him.

 

[Santana]

JFM having a better IPL than I thought he'd have. Good for him

 

[Around the Wicket]

This pitch is that flat it’s probably a given they chase this down. Rohit 100 incoming.

 

[NYRB]

Bharat under the consensus now McGurk is a lock for the opening spot and I dont think there would be too many who would disagree.

I'd love to know how people outside of India feel about this. Two months of home run derbies isn't cricket as far as I'm concerned. I still enjoy watching people like Yuzi Chahal, Ravi Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav bowl but I'm struggling to enjoy this year's IPL
