Royals out of the tournament.

Local Indian lads kicked Mumbai Indians out of the IPL 2. And the local Indian lads do it for Rajasthan Royals it too. 4 runs in last over. A single off first, 2 of the next for a misfield and one more off he 3rd ball sends Royals out of the IPL.

An underrated ex Indian player and a something who could be kapil dev but who couldnt be even a Jimmy player do it for Kolkata. KKR would go with some pride, but they would need to look up for their team selection for next season 3. They got to answer why Langveldt wasnt played who made all the difference today. Most probably no Aussie coach, support staff and perhaps no Ganguly too.

Selection errors for RR, dropping of Smith (not sure if he was injured / dropped), poor batting performance and then poor fielding by Indian lads throw Warne magic out of the IPL. Warne joins McCullum and Tendulkar in the list of ousted captains.

Now all depends on the next big game : CSK vs Punjab. CSK favorites but for their poor bowling and even poorer fielding. I hope they dont play Balaji any more.

Yeah, CSK must leave out Balaji(who went for a whopping 5 runs in the 19th over in the match previous to the one in which 377 runs were scored and all bowlers spanked, and Balaji was spanked too). They must play Gony, who has gone for just about million runs,a nd dropped just about a thousand catches. Right? :-)

right anony, Balaji is not only a thud with bat and ball but with the field too.

do u remember the winning run in the game against KKR? when he needed to run to the ball, he ran opposite the ball direction.

such a loser when he has played for country for 2 years.
