Well, RC-Bangalore, you have become one. So quietly did RCB go through its campaign. KKR deservedly feasted at the bottom of the barrel. Dehli and Rajasthan couldn't focus on the task at hand. Mumbai and Punjab were outplayed. Deccan Chargers are truly deserving as finalists, but Bangalore-- no fireworks, no arrogance. M Pandey's last two knocks, and Dravid, innocuous, steady, still the wall even in this format of the game.
I will root for RC-B tomorrow: just because nobody ever really thought they'd be in the finals. Dehli, Mumbai, Rajasthan, Punjab, Chennai, Hyderabad--these teams were all equally favored. Kolkata was a joke from the outset. Nobody cared enough about Bangalore to support or deride them. Now, they are in the final. Will M Pandey rise to the occasion again? Or, will Gilchritst outshine everybody else on the field?
Thanks!yes there is no other option than to wait...
ReplyDeleteI always support the weaker team and this time it is no other than Banglore, the team which almost crippled to make place in semis and unprediatably won over Cheennai to be in Final. But since u r supporting Banglore, i chose the opposing one, Deccan chargers. What say u who is going to win this bet?
