deccan chargers for sure rr without shane watson so he going to miss this match and it wont be easy for them to win without watson

 

[Prithvi]

Rajasthan will win it, considering the fact that "No home team has won a game at RGICS"

 

[vickyrox]

I have a feeling RR..
And they have oram now too

 

[akshay12]

DC have more chance.its like a 55-45 scenario for them because Shane Watson willn't be there but since it is T20 you cannot discount the Rajasthan team

It's nearly impossible to predict a winner in the first matches of each side as the squads are completely new. If I had to predict a winner, I would say Rajasthan.

The Chargers completely rely on Sangakkara and Ojha/Mishra, if even two out of the three fail they are out of it. Don't expect much from Steyn and KP in the sub-continent.

Who said Steyn wasn't reliable in SC wickets ?? Forgot the WC match against India ?? Also , he has an IPL E/R of 6.6 and an average of 20 , which is more than lethal to look .

Gayle has replaced KP incase you din know

What?

 

[Haarithan]

What?

Sorry , that turned out to be a rumor from my friend
But still , they can sign a replacement for the injured KP .

 

[AbhishekS]

Isn't Gayle playing for KKR? Sorry but I am not too sure.

Isn't Gayle playing for KKR? Sorry but I am not too sure.

No mate , gayle remains unsold . Plus , he has got the tour of Pakistan coming up on April 23rd which runs till the end of IPL , which counts to him playing a maximum of 4 matches if at all any side signs him , so it will be nothing but a huge loss in capital if any side secured his signature .

 

[AbhishekS]

Isn't he a freelance player now?

 

[Haarithan]

Isn't he a freelance player now?

He is ineligible to play for WI only in t20s . He will continue to play in the ODIs and tests .

There's no Kevin Pietersen or Cameron White for Deccan, one due to injury, the other due to international commitments. Rusty Theron impressed last season for Kings XI Punjab, Dale Steyn heads the pace attack, Michael Lumb is an attacking opening option while JP Duminy will lead the middle order. The bumper signing for Deccan was South Australia allrounder Daniel Christian, and he also remains an attractive draw in the top order. They also have left-arm spinner Chris Lynn, though it'll be surprising if he makes the XI on Saturday.

Bit of a shocker by cricinfo, I'd be surprised if he was brought for his bowling.

 

[sifter132]

Yeah fail - he's a good middle order bat...

Love to see Christian get a go tonight (or I would see it if the TV rights weren't stuffed)...Surely they wouldn't play both Steyn and Theron as the only place Deccan has proven Indian players is in the bowling attack: Ohja, Mishra, Gony, Ishant.
