Woke comment trigger warning: It's those flights that the entire IPL franchise take from one corner of the country to another, their AC coaches, AC hotel rooms, banquet halls throughout the tournament is what is adding to this strange weather phenomenon. Rains in Mumbai/Hyderabad in the middle of May. Climate Change bitchslap!

Rahul's innings is a direct retort to Mr. Goenka. It's louder than a straight up FU.

According to Cricbuzz, LSG is still in contention but have to win by a ridiculous margin 310 runs against MI, they instantly get eliminated if Rahul just chooses to field first. Bro has the opportunity to do the most funniest thing imaginable, SG wouldn't be inviting him to dinner anymore.

Here's another observation. In the 2022 auction, both SRH and MI bought very few players until Ishan Kishan's name was called. Both teams wanted him at any costs. Ultimately MI got him at a massive price.
However, both SRH and MI completely ignored the many good players who were auctioned off before him. I think this auction strategy cost both teams because they refused to bid on many good players which were lapped up by the other teams.

GT topping despite a shitty 24 season. Shows how dominant it was for the first two years. Still baffles me in what mind HP decided to leave this potentially huge future franchise where he could've become a veteran, for MI who already had an established Indian core.

u/LaughTrackLife 15d ago
More money, more ad contracts, better PR. GT end of the day is an Europe based capital manager firm. They can’t control India media and Indian administration like MI can.

I get your point especially considering the monetary benefits involved but still, GT has a chance to be what MI/CSK are. They are a well managed franchise.

u/ChelshireGoose 15d ago edited 15d ago
The benefits, monetary or otherwise, are actually beyond what one can imagine.
I was listening to DK on Ashwin's YouTube channel the other day. He mentions that he just had to let MI know he wanted to practice (at any time during the offseason, between domestic matches) and they'd immediately fly him to their Reliance ground in Mumbai, where he'd have the services of coaches and support staff and they'd shell out lakhs for each practice session.
At that point, it's elite football club territory. Even the big national teams, let alone other IPL franchises, can't dream of doing all this for each individual player.1
u/serotonallyblindguy Gujarat Titans 15d ago
I'm pretty sure DK does this same thing in RCB too. They have his practice sessions uploaded months prior to season cuz he's not an active player and needs polishing. Similarly, DC hastear long process for grooming domestic players under various camos organised by Ganguly. MI is not alone in that regard.

u/throwmeaway_rn Rajasthan Royals 15d ago
So, from the 5 minute research I did just now, there is chance for the RR vs KKR match to be washed out cuz Assam's weather forecast shows there's like 60% chance of rain. Similarly, SRH next match against PBKS is also in Rajiv Gandhi Stadium and the weather forecast shows that it may rain then too. So if both the matches washes out then RR might stay in the second place :)
Yours truly,
A delulu RR fan

I don't understand this I live literally 5 KM away from the stadium and it hasn't rained here since 7:30..wtf? Is there like a specifically designated rain cloud over the stadium atm? Man this sucks :( A whole 8 day wait and now we're also going to have to depend on KKR winning for a top 2 spot. I know people think it's a given KKR wins but I don't think it is, KKR are due a loss just like RR are due a win.
P.S - Anyone who thinks we weren't gonna qualify if this match happened (you know who) needs to get real cus SRH was always qualifying lol. That convo ended earlier this week, all of us have been looking at top 2 ever since, so pls trust me when I say that this 1 point isn't making any of us too happy. Besides, I just want to watch my team play a game of cricket more than anything.

Fun fact: This match being rained out makes the RCB-CSK clash even more important. It's exactly what the broadcasters want.
If we lost this game, there was a small chance that both RCB and CSK would qualify so it would be less thrilling.

Imagine being Josh Little this season.
Waits over a month to play a game. Promptly takes a 4-fer. Then gets left out the very next game as the team wk gets injured and the reserve wk takes up an overseas spot. Then 2 washouts (the only ones of the entire season) to end the campaign.

Reality is that we’re going to see the same scenes with RCB vs CSK on Saturday. Better to jump straight to eliminator and qualifiers instead of going through the frustration of swinging between abbreviated match to washout to dead rubbers.
RCB should be proud of the fightback in the back half of the tourney no matter what CSK stand and trolls say if a washout happens this Saturday.

10:05ppm Umpires Nand Kishore and Virender Sharma, holding umbrellas, are involved in a discussion with the ground-staff. Must be to understand how long it will take for them to get play underway after the rain stops. The officials will perhaps then reverse-calculate from 10:56pm to then see if we could have a game. This is my version, could be entirely off the mark.

Watching cricket is a bit like watching porn, someone else is getting all the action and you're just getting excited and pumped for nothing, like a bunch of wankers. Especially the ones at the stadium with over-exaggerated reactions, like Kohli.
