Mumbai Indians got their first win in the CLT and this is not good enough to see them through to the semis even if they beat RCB in their final game. The savagery of Kiran Potdar aka Keiron Pollard was sole reason why MI could win this one by 31 runs.
Besides Zaks and Harbhajan got wickets too.
Good for their morale, good for India (really?).
By the way Pollard's success in non international T20s suggest a disturbing trend :
"The T20 players play great in club / franchisee level T20s but they fail to deliver when they play for their country."
Have not heard Pollard succeed in ODIs and T20Is for West Indies.
He belongs to the category of Suresh Raina, Murali Vijay, Dabrinath. So turning freelance is a good option for Vijay, Dabris and Rainas. Even Jaddukha and Dinesh Karthik can join this club and stop competing for slots in Indian team for ODI/T20/Tests. The original freelancer Freddie Flintoff retired today from all forms of cricket including IPL.
I am sure CSK would retain following players in the upcoming IPL4 auction:
- Dabri
- Raina
- Anni
- Vijay
And bid for Dinesh Karthik to snatch Tamil player from cruel North Indian franchisee Delhi DareEvils.
