CSK has been the most popular and successful team so far in IPL. And currently they stand proud at the top of points tally.. CSK doing a good job again.

Comment on Views of a Chennai Super Fan – Another day in the life of Jadeja by Karthik

It looks suspiciously like a fixed match…a no ball by nearly a foot from an experienced player..also know to be buddies with the CSK captain..and everyone knows how CSK has always had an advantage over other teams when it comes to policies and decisions regarding playing conditions. Looks to me as if it is anything but accidental.

Comment on Views of a Chennai Super Fan – The One Where The Hussey In Yellow Comes Out On Top by farkandfunk

Nice summary.
I did feel a little tremor when Ashwin hit the ground for that catch.
Hussey’s just cool as ICE. Dude probably lives in an igloo.

The RCB game sure is going to be a challenge. Gayle and Kohli are in tremendous form. And AB’s there too. Ugh.

Comment on Three Points Everyone – How Homeworkgate could have been avoided by kirbyakasid

They are the two I thought may have been a bit rude, too. It’s hard to know about Khawaja and Pattinson, but I guess you just never know. Mickey Arthur looked like he was funing in that press conference, so I think there’s something more than just “they didn’t fo their homework”.

Yeah, getting thumped bites. Especially with the Ashes coming up. England already laugh at us, we don’t need to be giving them more fuel.

I can actually picture Watson and Johnson as being rude or disrespectful…don’t know much about Pattinson or Khawaja though…

and commiserations…believe it or not…I know how being a fan of a team getting thumped overseas feels ;P

I love it – bat better, bowl better, field better. It doesn’t get simpler than that.

You are right that people are seeing it all with more sensible eyes today. Mickey Arthur’s press conference, in which he was very angry, makes me wonder if the players were downright rude and disrespectful about having to do it.

Nonetheless, it’s still funny. Of course, I’m an Aussie. I have to laugh about something on this tour or I mght cry.

Comment on 11 Thoughts on Cricket from January by tracer007

Peter Siddle doesn’t really have the greatest record in List A or ODIs…but yea, time to give him another chance, I reckon…

George Bailey is a result of lack of alternatives, I guess. Watto is injured half the time, Warner is too raw, and who else is captaincy material in the team, anyway? At least, Bailey has some credit as a respected leader in first class cricket.

Yea, Mussey’s retirement will be a worry. Gone are the days when a player could walk in from FC cricket and settle into the Test side with ease. Australia have some work to do in that regard.
