IPL 2016 Gujarat Lions vs Rising Pune Supergiants Match Highlights

IPL 2016 Steven Smith 101 runs of 54 Balls GL vs RPS Match Highlights

What a finish to the game! Gujarat hold their nerve for the second match in succession this season to win a nail-biter against Pune. Chasing a mammoth target of 196, Gujarat's openers Brendon McCullum and Dwayne Smith took their team off to an exceptional start that made light work of the big target. The 93-run stand off just 49 balls virtually gave the tourists the advantage despite the enormity of the target. However, as in recent games, the duo's departure slowed the innings a bit as Pune managed to claw their way back into the match.

Suresh Raina and Dinesh Karthik put on a solid 51-run stand to consolidate on the rapid start but the former departed with 30 needed from 22. Pune kept clinging on although some poor bowling at the end allowed Gujarat to release the pressure whenever needed. 9 was needed off the final over but Perera lost the plot in the initial deliveries to virtually kill the chase. A couple of wickets off successive balls did keep the interest alive but Faulkner ensured that there would be no miracles for Pune in the end. A hard pill to swallow for the hosts after having batted so well.

Murugan Ashwin was the pick of the bowlers although he didn't get a wicket. His 18th over was top class, conceding just 4 runs to keep the game alive. Dinda and Perera did take wickets but were expensive and therefore allowed Gujarat to motor along in the chase despite having a huge required run rate to deal with. Pune's bowling once again let them down at vital moments in the match.

It was the second time this season that a batsman had scored a century against Gujarat but both times they ensured that the efforts were in vain. It's 5/5 in chases for the tourists this season as they continue to be on top of the table. Pune's season continues to go downhill as they find themselves at the bottom half of the pool.

IPL9 2016 RPS vs GL Match Prediction, Who Will Win, Toss, Preview

The Indian T20 League is living up its big name across the nation for the entertainment it provides. The first half of the season is almost over and we have witnessed some rollicking contests getting down to the wire. The wait for each game is surely on everyone's mind. Match 25 will be played between Pune and Gujarat at the former's den.

Having played last time, Gujarat ended up victorious as they outplayed Dhoni's playing XI. Coming back to this match, Pune will be fired up after the clinical win against Hyderabad, where they not only bowled well with the likes of Ashok Dinda and Mitchell Marsh but also found their key bowler R.Ashwin back in form. When asked to chase a moderate total, Steven Smith found his form with his unbeaten match-winning knock against quality pace bowling. Gujarat, on the other hand, are having a great run in their debut season.

They have won 5 out of their 6 encounters. Their batting is in safe hands with Dwayne Smith, McCullum, and Raina in top form. The bowling unit can't get better as they already have Bravo and Faulkner to their rescue but have been inconsistent. Raina's XI will be very much delighted with a win in their last nail-biting contest against Delhi. Their bowling unit literally pulled back the game from the jaws of defeat. Praveen Kumar and DJ Bravo did it for them with exceptional death bowling.

However, they will wish to be more clinical as their batting and bowling were not consistent in that match with their sudden batting collapse and loose middle over bowling. Both the newbies will once again face each other in Pune. The two skippers, formerly teammates in previous seasons, would be eyeing nothing less than a win.

IPL9 2016 RPS vs GL Match Prediction, Who Will Win?

If we go with a type of team GL have then no one can say that Pune will win this match . Good for the GL is that Praveen kumar is back in squad as well as back in form too. If we see pune then only one factor that let them win is their Skipper, who know how to handle these type of situations.

IPL 2016 Kieron Pollard 51 runs in 17 balls vs KKR Highlights

IPL 2016  Kieron Pollard 51 runs in 17 balls vs KKR Innings 

Mumbai win by 6 wickets and 12 balls left . KKR  started their innings with robin and Gambhir playing some useful knock in the middle over they have down their pace that let them not to reach near 200, which was easily available if you see their innings till 10 over , even they started their bowling on a good note by removing Parthiv early.Rohit and Rayudu A Mens in form once again played a useful knock to put them out of that pressure  . After  Rayudu fell, there was a collapse and Mumbai seemed to be losing their way. Kieron Pollard, a man who was in his 100th league game, played a cracking knock of  a 17-ball 51 which included 6 big hits, to take mumbai indians out of this web . This win lifts the confidence of MI PLayer tremendously and they will also move up in the table. Mumbai are now third on the points table, just behind Kolkata.

IPL 9 2016 Gautam Gambhir 59 runs of 45 balls MI vs KKR Innings Highlights 

If you are mumbai indians fans then Pollard has made this a night to remember for you .  Wankhede one of the best stadium for t20 match had featured this game as the last t20 of  IPL 2016 . 175 was never going to be difficult to chase, going by the records at this venue, but tonight, the pitch was a little difficult tonight.

Gautam Gambhir (Kolkata captain): Obviously we are not gonna give excuses and all that stuff. We did not bowl well. We had a platform for a big score and we had a lot of big hitters but unfortunately we could not do that. They bowled really well. We needed an innings like what Pollard played but they bowled professionally. Like I said, no excuses. 175 was never enough on this sort of a wicket. I am not a cricketer who is going to give excuses of dew. We are hard-working cricketers and we all are used to playing when the ball gets wet. The toss, dew and all are not in our hands.

Rohit Sharma (Victorious Mumbai skipper and Man Of The Match): It was a good game. We wanted this win very badly. I think we came out and were pretty determined to get the results we wanted. We stuck to our plans, although not on the field. We dropped so many catches (laughs). So we have got to get back to the dashboard. I think Pollard's form is crucial for us. I would like to thank the crowd for their support. Unfortunately we have to move, but their support was superb. Mumbai crowd is always good, they enjoy cricket, no matter which team plays. I am sure they would have hoped Pollard fires and he played and I am sure they must have enjoyed. (On the new home venue) I don't know, haven't decided yet. Wherever we play, we need to understand the pitch and conditions and adjust as quickly as possible.


If you see this stadium them you can easily say that Bowling second is never easy at the Wankhede as this stadium has witnessed many high scoring games . Shakib and Narine bowled well to go for just 52 in 8 overs combined, with 3 scalps but the rest struggled.

Kolkata were off to a flier as they raced to 50 inside the Powerplay. But after the fielding restrictions were removed, the run rate dipped and the batsmen struggled to get boundaries. The pressure told on Uthappa who lost his wicket. Gambhir tried to up the ante but he too fell to the clever wily bowling. Once he went, the visiting side could not get any momentum.

Kolkata finish on 174/5. A decent batting display from Kolkata, though, they were aided a lot by Mumbai. Mitchell McClenaghan set the tone early for bad fielding, as he dropped a sitter of Gambhir when he was on 8. Parthiv Patel then missed an easy stumping chance of Uthappa and there were plenty of poor ground fielding attempts as well. But the bowlers did their job and hung around for the breakthrough, even when Gambhir and Uthappa were toying around.

Not quite sure whether this would be a good score. Traditionally, Wankhede has seen scores in excess of 180 but tonight's pitch seems to be on the slower side. But with the dew coming into play, the bowlers would not find it easy.

Mumbai came back really well after the Powerplay, going for just 67 in overs 7-15, before going for 48 in the final 5. No bowler was outstanding though they might have had a different outcome had the catches been taken. They will feel that they can chase it down but it won't be easy.

 Chris Morris: 82* off 32
 Balls innings Highlights  IPL 9 2016  Vs GL

What a match. Absolute thriller of a contest.  Both the teams had equal chance and it was Gujarat who held nerves in the end to emerge victorious.

 

Delhi lost early wickets as they were 16/3 at one stage and their middle order had a mountain to climb. Pant, on debut got a start but failed to convert. And then we saw something special from Chris Morris. The South African shared a superb 87-run stand with his country mate and brought the game close. Some fantastic last two overs made sure Delhi don't cross the line in the end. Chris Morris finished unbeaten on 82 off just 32 balls.

The run chase was divided into two halves. First Delhi started off poorly but came back stronger in the next 10 overs. It was Chris Morris, the million dollar baby gave us a thriller of a contest. The crowd totally enjoyed it although their side lost by a mere one run.


 Man of the Match, Chris Morris:  I'm just very happy I contributed today. Personally happy. I was quite lucky to be honest. Just happy that I could contribute. Last few months I've practiced on my batting. You have to give yourself some time. It hurts when you lose tight ones like this. (Whether this one was his best T20 game) Definitely. This one was one of the best knocks I played.

  IPL 2016  Rising Pune Supergiants vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Match

With a very low total to defend, Hyderabad's bowlers were erratic. They wasted the new ball and barring a few deliveries from Mustafizur Rahman, the hosts' bowlers were hardly threatening. Easy runs were gifted to the Pune batsmen and they obliged by putting the freebies away to coast to a comfortable win. Earlier in the evening, Shikhar Dhawan stood tall amidst the ruins as Hyderabad produced a pathetic batting performance. The Indian opener's knock and Bhuvneshwar Kumar's cameo gave some respectability to the score but it was never going to be enough.

 Ashok Dinda (Man of the Match) -  (On his performance) Yea, very happy. The wicket was a good one for fast bowlers and I just maintained the line and length. (On MS Dhoni's support) He always helped me and told me on how to bowl to David Warner and Naman Ojha. (On his celebration resembling footballer Cristiano Ronaldo's antics) I am a big fan of Ronaldo. (On maintaining his form) Hopefully, I can keep it going.

That brings us to the end of our coverage for this game. A bit of an anti-climax eventually with the rains coming in. However, the result was never in doubt and it was a one-sided encounter. Today will be another cracking contest in the Indian T20 League. Delhi will be hosting Gujarat tomorrow at 2000 IST.
