**Official** Indian Premier League 2013

[Arjun]

Sehwag and Morne not available for the first match. Russell would be picked in the absence of power hitters like Sehwag, KP.

So Russell and Pawan Negi in for Sehwag and Morne, maybe?

 

[Cevno]

Lee cleans up Chand first ball.

 

[Spikey]

where was that in the bbl you ****

Token local goes first ball

 

[Satyanash89]

Completely and utterly owned him there. Russell had simply no clue

 

[Neil Pickup]

Was painful yet enthralling to watch in equal measures.

I get the feeling Russell should just have tried to smack it.

 

[Satyanash89]

Are the commentators and third umpire on crack? Thats not out

Why the **** do these blind monkeys need to look at 50 replays before making a decision bringing the game to a grinding halt?

Dehli would've been dead without Mahela

He and Warner are a class above the rest of that lineup and it was reflected in the scores

 

[Jarquis]

That's awful Bisla

 

[Jarquis]

That is gorgeous

Daredevils screwing over my fantasy team. Had Chand (golden f****** duck!) and Morkel (didn't get picked, of all the goddamn things. The best bowler in their side, doesn't get picked. WTF!)

 

[Jarquis]

He's playing for the Titans. Both of them stuffed me up too

Not trying to be a stickler, but shouldn't there be a pre-match pointer about this on cricinfo. Here is what they had to say on Morkel in the Daredevil's preview:

Morne Morkel has regained his fitness after a hamstring injury, and will once again spearhead the Daredevils pace attack. He was the leading wicket-taker in the IPL last season, taking 25 wickets at an average of 18.20. He played an influential role in a side that finished at the top of the league stage. Daredevils will again look to him to lead the bowling as they seek an elusive title.

F****s.

 

[Jarquis]

Tournament preview or match preview?

 

[honestbharani]

lol.. juz what the IPL needed.. Another team in almost full blue..

 

[harsh.ag]

Tournament preview or match preview?

It was posted today itself.

 

[harsh.ag]

And now they have withdrawn it. Do they have somebody watch over comments here at CW?

 

[Nate]

Brett Lee still bowling at the death?

 

[Nate]

Loved Narine's reaction when he got Russell out, haha.

The video quality on YouTube is awful though. EDIT: Ah, some videos have a better quality.
