FWIW, tonight I am rooting for LSG to pull off a heist over RR. LSG need a bit of pride and it will make the shootout for the final spot a little more exciting :)

Comfortable win for RR. I got my win on Super Bru, but sad for LSG. But I told my wife that if LSG do not get Sooryavanshi early, RR will win the match. The lad was once again amazing. If he keeps this sort of form, especially, in the shorter format he will be unstoppable. Long may his success last.

8.15 pm Wow, it has begun to rain all of a sudden, quite heavily. The ground staff are rushing on with the covers. There was rain earlier in the evening but it had cleared up by around 5pm. Now it's back. The whole ground is being covered.

Hearing that Angkrish Raghuvanshi has also been replaced due to concussion protocols. Ramandeep Singh comes in as a concussion sub for KKR. Not sure when he hit his head but may have been during that botched catch attempt with Varun, he was looking at his hand as he walked off the field at the time.

manan: "Absolutely mockery of the rules with Angkrish fracturing his hand and getting a concussion replacement?" He could have jarred his head as he dived to the ground so benefit of the doubt!

I was unable to watch this. Interesting though.

KKR need 136 runs in 111 balls.

What the hell does it even matter. These supersub impact rules are braindead anyway. It makes a mockery of cricket and cricket stats which are now irrelevant
 
I am mind-blown hoe Corbin Bosch does not get rated more highly after his performance today (regardless that he was in the losing side).

Ja, it's him and Boult competing for the same overseas spot... which is a no brainer in my opinion

Decent performance today, think he is one sa player who definitely upped his ipl stake with Rickelton.
 
Just crazy.

He batted for less than half of the innings (out at the end of the 8th over) and almost scored a 100

I can't wait to see what this kid does in test cricket over the next 25 years.

I don't think we've ever seen such a prodigious talent, in any sporting code, ever in history.

He has the potential to be the ultimate GOAT...

Surreal...
 
Ja, he's next level. 2 things though.... would like to see him against spin and secondly playing outside of India... in more bowler friendly environments. I've no doubt that he'll adapt, he's that good :) If I look at the Indian youngsters coming up... man ... not going to be fun playing them for the next 10-15 years :D

LeBron James?

I recall seeing him on CNN in the early 2000s while he was still in high school. ESPN was broadcasting his school's basketball games and he was already appearing in magazines. He skipped college and went straight to the NBA as the first overall pick in 2003 at the age of 18 and he is still active. He has been in the league for so long, he is now playing with his son for the Lakers.

Yeah remember he played SA A and smashed teh guys around but think the test might have been in India.

If Royals can keep him and Lhuan-dre Pretorius can find some game time over the next few years Royals will have a lethal opening pair.

He is a phenom.

I would put Luke Littler up there as well as potential most prodigious sporting talent.
