Jos already left?

Weren't the England players leaving during Playoffs and not before it. 

RR ke 2 matches remaining hain.

Mustafa Moudi: "Since Salt is set to miss the Playoffs and KKR have already qualified. I would suggest dropping Starc and Rinku for Chetan Sakariya and Gurbaz. Let Gurbaz and Salt open for KKR. This way he would get some game time, instead of directly playing the Playoffs. Also, Both Rinku and Starc havent done anything significant this season so dropping them wont affect them much !!" On the contrary, Varun Aaron would like to see Starc bowl his full quota

While I did select Salt for most 4s & 6s, I do think that KKR could drop him tonight, but I'm not sure that Gurbaz should be the substitute.  Instead, either return Venky there, or bring in Manish Pandey.  I also don't agree w/ the Cricinfo poster on dropping Starc, who can be a wildcard anytime, but I do think either Rinku or Ramandeep should be dropped

Also, since Nitish Rana is back, maybe he can replace Ramandeep, and the death overs can be left to Russell and Rinku.  Then one can have the following 12 line-up, impact subs being adjusted accordingly

Venky

Narine

Raghuvanshi

Nitish Rana

Shreyas

Russell

Rinku/Ramandeep (but not both)

Bharat (w)

Starc

Harshit

Suyash Sharma

Varun

Since KKR already have an adequate pace attack in Starc, Harshit & Russell, I'd try to give them a 3-man spin of Narine, Varun and Suyash.

Match delayed.  Hope they unlock d predictions 

7:23pm A slight drizzle now as the centre covers are firmly on. Some of the GT flags that are generally put on the roof of the stadium, have come off and are hanging on some parts of the floodlights, which is why not all of them were on. But now slowly, one part of the ground is moving away from darkness as the floodlights partly come on.

7.40pm local: The floodlights have only partially been switched on. Covers remain firmly placed on the square.

No support to any team

If they win with a big margin, they move to 7th position and LSG go down to 8th

Basically they'll act like speed breaker for other team 

1st CSK then may be LSG (bachi kuchi %)

Par GT toh jeetegi nahin

Saw this tweet

Harsha Bhogle:- Usually during interviews people look at your face but I'm trying to look at your finger.

Nitish Rana:- Sir, me aapko nahi dikha sakta kyuki wo Middle Finger Hai 

(DURING PRE MATCH INTERVIEW)
