IPL is now at its glorious uncertain best. Win of RCB further complicates the equation. 4th spot is still an open spot to be grabbed. Here are few combinations:
1) RCB are 5th now. 10 points. 3 games to go. One against CSK, DC and DD. Tough games. But if they play the way they did and win at least 2 games ,they are in for serious challenge. Taylor is in form and so is Boucher. RCB would then end up with 14 points.
2) MI should win today's game. If they do they stay a point ahead of RCB and at par with RR. They go 4. They have good NRR. Positive. KXIP have never lost it against MI, but today they should, they are almost out of the reckoning. But if KXIP win they go 4 at 12.
3) RR would have tough times ahead after yesterday' sloss. Reports say Warne is injured and would miss the rest of the tourney. If thats true, then the RR is at the end of the road. Half their charisma and power to win comes from Warnie. Smith is good skipper but not as good as Warnie.
4) CSK and DD are sure shots for the semis. DC are almost there too. It would be very tough to beat them going forward.
The race for 4th spot is on.
I wish Tendulkar gets a duck today. A big 0. Superstition. Reverse way.
