Yeah I saw that. Some shite bowling but when Gayle is in the mood he's virtually unplayable.
I've watched quite a few games in this tournament and in the main it's been good stuff. Hope the last 2 games keep up the standard.

Been disappointed with the games on the whole but the last week's seen some brilliant finishes with 20 odd off the last over to win

Perhaps I've just been lucky and seen the good games like the one you mentioned. Gayle looks like he is trying to win this game for Bangalore almost single-handedly. They could be on for a score of well over 200 here.

Just need my randomly selected Captain to net me 2000 points today. Look out behind you

Better hope it randomly selects Chris Gayle, he's only shown any respect to Malinga in the last few weeks, and he even had a bit of a dart at him.
Dhoni or Albie Morkel could be canny shouts too, they both look in good nick with the bat and Morkel might chip in with a couple of wickets.
Did you see him get nailed by a Gayle drive in his follow through? By the time the physio got out his leg had already gone black where it had hit him

I would have been sobbing like a baby
Yeah Gayle has been my captain pick for the latter part of the comp, him and Sachin. All to late though to catch Big Bad Bri I would have been sobbing like a baby
Did you see Abdullah I think it was take one on the side of his head in his follow through? Batsman took two while he was lying on the ground holding his head. T20's getting pretty dangerous for bowlers
In terms of the players in it yeah, but the game's are too short, there's no chance of recovery if you have a bit of a collapse.
Plus, other than crocks or veterans, players still seem to value test cricket higher. They had Kohli on the mike yesterday while he was fielding and he was talking about getting picked in the India squad for the West Indies tour.
Oh and Harbajan's looked pretty ordinary and Symonds has been so poor he's been dropped.

I tried to give you guys a chance by picking Kohli as captain yesterday rather than Gayle. Kohli did nowt and...well you know what Gayle did.
I'm 682 points ahead going into the last game and I have enough transfers in hand to be able to select 11 players who are playing today. If I don't win this competition I will do a streak at Durham's next game.

And the day I reinstate Gayle as captain he gets out for a duck.
Luckily I had Vijay in my team.
Early days I know but can't see Bangalore chasing that big total down. They usually rely on Gayle to get them off to a good start and when he fails they often struggle to win games.

De Villiers is key now, they need him to get a big score.
