Completely outplayed RCB tonight. The close of the tournament will be interesting.

Wow interesting game today. Well done to schumi and PK.

Saw a stat on twitter that Punjab ended Pune's 7 match losing streak and now Bangalore's 7 match winning streak.

Unless that is how the "Super Over" is reflected?

Okay

Pune's failure in this tournament has a lot to do with Yuvraj's meagre returns. He has the ability to ignite those around him. You do squat and it runs off, I am afraid. As a captain he has also been less than impressive.

Kolkata Knight Riders to bat.

It's a must win game for KKR.

I've never rated him as a skipper and as a player I think he has awesome talent but has underachieved. He also comes across as very arrogant.

Agree 100%. No better example of his talent than his 6 sixes in the T20 against Broad & England. I hope for Pune's sake there is a review of the captaincy in 2012 (if we're still here).

Congrats Ros!

Just finished watching the match, great bonus point there Rosaudio, wonder how long I can cling onto this lead. Really want a GSP point for this round.
