Finals of the IPL 2008

[India2011]

I have picked Rajasthan XI.

They will get knocked out today,mind you.

You were only 106 runs off, icyman.

I'm not in a bad position, but Shane Watson really saved me, else I could have been last. It also helps that he's my captain.

 

[icyman]

Surprsingly,I'm 13.
Well.i have no chance of winning here,but still thats good.

icyman added 0 Minutes and 57 Seconds later...

Yup dude,I hope for a better show next time round.

Now this is bad. Smith won't play in the final. Some people had him as captain.

Injured Smith ruled out of IPL final

[SciD]

Good news. All those who have him as captain will not be trouble now. But why you make him captain????

 

[ZexyZahid]

Because Smith has scored 441 runs at an average of 49.00.

And Punjab team is failing for me. I knew for sure Rajasthan would go to the final, but I wasn't sure about the other semi-final. I chose Punjab and so far it isn't working out.

 

[SciD]

This game is gone aswell for me.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Well, I am won't be in the top for sure, because Punjab flopped.

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

I will be playing with 6 players in final :

 

[ZexyZahid]

I'll be playing with 4 players, because Smith has been injured. My captain Marsh won't play either, because Punjab has been knocked out.

 

[Abhas]

Even i had no player from Chennai

Only a few from Rajasthan now..

 

[afridi118]

i only have 3 or 4 player huh.

Many people would be disappointed with the result as they were expecting a Rajasthan vs Punjab Final.
This will spice things up a bit for the final

Oh cmon, Smith as captain would have been perfect instead hes gone like Marsh and co.
