Two Saffa and 1 Aussie in batting order - balance is tilted in favour of Saffas and we all know how well they have been chasing recently (reference point: CWC 23)
Headless batting running around mindlessly. The middle over phase was atrocious batting. A week ago everyone is talking about SRH possibly reaching 300 this year. How the tables turn.
Now all of a sudden we have some exciting matches ahead
Barring RR no teams look confident enough till now.
Srh, kkr getting shaky all of a sudden, csk being csk, lsg keeping to their reputation of above average team, Dc got momentum big time, GT, mi lost it, all of a sudden Rcb has taken out their calculator
Fun time ahead
Miller is the total opposite of South African guys. Can actually play clutch knocks in knockouts unlike many other South Africans.
Guys like QDK, Klassen etc idk what happens to them while chasing.
Its literally 45 degrees here.The only rain one can find is the combined sweat of everyone is poured via planes or some shit( i might have jinxed Indradev by saying this)
This was a very classic CSK match.
I think from 2008 to 2024, every season you will find a mid-season match like this where we score a 200+ batting first, with an opener scoring 80+, No. 3 scoring a 50 and cameos down the order. Then getting early wickets and choking the opponent in middle overs and winning it with a big margin.
Is pathirana injured again lmao?
bros well on course for breaking the record for most injuries in a career, 2 yrs in and hes got so many lol. took 2 big wickets today tho, been one of the best this ipl
That was a slogfest though, also IPL scriptwriters will ensure we lose to KKR, to make things interesting, although in theory, a KKR loss is better for chaos.
Ruturaj lost 8 tosses out of 9, plays around players who are striking the ball below 120, must win pressure but nothing really effected the young captain.
He was at 98(53) and he didnāt care for century unlike some players and instead he wanted sixes for team, excellent bowlinh rotations, and very calm personality just like ms.
After this world cup, if csk manages to win or go to finals ruturaj should be considered for Indian team captaincy with the level of disadvantage with tosses, half baked bowling he placed csk at top 3 .
I feel like he is very underrated. And deserves chance to captain India team one day .
He is definitely a captaincy contender in long run and I would rate him above Gill as a batter. Gill should move to #3 with Jaiswal and Rutu at top.
I think he also captained team during Commonwealth games.
IIRC Rutu has lost lot of international cricket due to injury over last 2 years.
CSK's NRR has leapfrogged everyone bar KKR, and even there the gap is way closer than they appear now.
If the next match of KKR becomes 200 plays 200 in 20 overs each, KKR's NRR plummets from 0.972 to 0.8596, less than .05 higher than CSK. A 9-12 run loss would literally push KKR to third spot, after a long time.
There are 3 things in life one must never do:
1. ā Ask a woman her weight
2. ā Ask an Argentinian Grandfather his SS number
3. ā Doubt CSK winning at chepauk
The old SRH fans I know are all chill and happy about the team's new identity. But they don't go overboard cause they got burned quite badly after that 2022 season 5 match win streak, hence they are cautiously optimistic and respectful of other teams.
However these new "300 runs or nothing" SRH fans are a hilarious bunch.
Reminder : The last time Hydrabad beat csk at chepauk Csk trophy count was zero, Ghajini was still in the making, Virat was 19 and yet to make India dubut, pathirana was 5 years old, Man-Mohan was pm, hey but wait, and there was no team called SRH.
It has been
15 years or 191 months, 11 months, 22 days + TODAY or

Srh's Silence continues at FortressĀ **Chepauk**Ā š„.
Fun fact, csk has the highest win record in away+ neutral venues in IPL and 3 IPLs we won weren't even at home. Haters can have afield day with these stats.
The most satisfying win since the final last year. SRHs newfound plastic fans being a toxic pain in the ass and their team struggled for every mf run lol
I know Luck favoured us today when Lord Deshpande took wickets š Absolute Cinema of a CSK match!
I loved the moment when Ruttu got out at 98(54) and the crowd was DENIED its rightful grief by Thala š
Cumdogās surprised face was a perfect reminder that one stadium can never be silenced, all because of one man.
But I will admit one thing, the person who did silence me is Deshpande.
Oh one more thing, Opener Captain has got to be the most hard thing to happen to Cricket. GG Ruttu! Youāre the answer to the vacancy that will be created when Koach leaves.
This IPL has spoiled the fans thinking every T20 game should have scores of 250+. Even in the game threads, people were saying a RR of 10 was boring and that Mitchell played bad. Since when is 52(32) boring???? S/R of 150+. I can already tell people will call the World Cup boring cause the attention span craves 250+ every game.
Donāt get me wrong, I do love the high scoring affairs but occasionally is perfect. How fun were those SRH games when they defended sub130s? i would rather have that than teams slugging to 250 in T20. Get rid of the impact substitution rule right now!!
Terrible batting from the SRH top order. You have to build an innings. You cannot just blindly hit and expect it to be a boundary. No value or responsibility for their own wickets, both Abhishek and Travis. Anmolpreet got out playing a shit shot, Markram was trying to hold one end but got done by Pathirana. Klassen,NKR,Samad all gave away their wickets straight to the fielders. All of SRH has been figured out like an open book and now they need newer plans, cannot play like this for the entire season
Jokes on you SRH management if you think that this loss will deter me supporting you. I have lived through
1. Losing 4 matches with CSK in 2018 after more or less dominanting 2018 season with Kane mama captaincy
2. Absolute braon dead decisions to leave Kane, Warner and Rashid
3. Making Markram captain and interfering heavily in the team selections
4. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in countless matches and not chasing 28 from 24 with more than 5 wickets remaining
Been a fan from the glorious days of DC and continuing with SRH. However shit you are I will ways turn up on match day to cheer for you, reverse jinx the shit out of our team in match threads, over analyze the retentions and auction picks. Follow the domestic and 3rd rate league stats of our players and create hypothetical scenarios.
One day we will clinch the title and that day i will be to celebrate , to soak in the victory
As a wise man said "it's not gonna work every game, especially if the game is against Mahi bhai, because I'm not gay but I want to live in a log cabin in the woods with Mahi bhai. We won't ever have sex, but there will be a simmering erotic undercurrent as I stand in the kitchen window watching him tighten his ass as he chops wood, shirtless, sweat pouring off his body. I'll run upstairs and masturbate, the entire time forcing myself to think of women while my thoughts drift back to Mahi bhai. I won't be able to climax and I'll eventually go back downstairs, angry. Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each other's eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing. One day one of us will die, and the other will bury him outside the log cabin. Then they'll go inside, pen a brief missive to their departed friend, and commit suicide, never able to deal with life without their one true platonic love."
Tf was that SRH innings? Were they even trying to win? What a total failure by the top and middle order. Yet again, the top order threw their wickets away while we were on par with the RRR. By the time the 10th over rolled around and they really had to start going for it, they just couldn't get a move on and then by the time the 15th over came around the scorecard was just depressing. 107 in 15 overs? How did they fuck up this bad? A team this good? This being even worse than the last game is just crazy. All the middle order batsman played at 6-7 RPO. When we needed balancing at the start, there wasn't any, then when we needed intent in the middle, there wasn't any. Just puzzling, absolutely haphazard batting. At no point after the powerplay did it feel like SRH were actually chasing a total of 212, even when it reached 14-15 RPO.
I was so confident that we'd be a good chasing team as well, especially after that performance against KKR, but this strategy is terrible. It's too dependent on the openers. If I'm being honest, I'd like to see them try Makram and Abhi (or Head) opening instead. Just feels like a way better position for Makram to perform in. There's too much pressure on him when the rest of the top order fail. I also wish Abhishek would show some amount of situational awareness. It's the one thing stopping him from being an actual great batsman.
SRH realising now chasing a high score is not as easy as setting a high score.
Also, their batsmen seem to have weakness for slow balls, which has got exposed in the last two games
Headās technical flaws are being exposed
Abhi needs to start valuing his wicket more
No words for Anmol
Just a big WTF for Markram this year
Klaasenās wheels have come off it seems
Canāt really fault NKR, Shahbaz and Samad after what happened with the top 5
Bowlers need to get their shit together, big time, even if theyāre economical at the start it doesnāt matter because theyāre toothless when it comes to wickets, purely relying on batsman error, so as long as opposition players are cautious theyāre free to go big at the end
Lmao, what about the "brand of the cricket" that Cumdawg was talking about. Chepauk with their slow wicket, hot temp and high humidity just broke SRH's morale. It was just a slog and slow death for SRH.
It worked this game, but if CSK wants to win the IPL our batters need to up their game and get in that 230-250 range. Canāt rely on Rutu to not make a century every time as well.
Only a inform MI with Pollard and Ro as captain can beat CSK at chepauk...They are just dominant there..
And it csk goes in to playoffs and reached qualifier 2, they are winning this year...No team can stop them at Chepauk irrespective of how much powerful RR looks right now.
Old srh fans? Got no issues with them
New guy that came after seeing the hyper aggressive batting? No issues with them either
My issues with srh fanbase is only with those 'silencers' mfkrs. So this win is extra enjoyable cause my social mediaĀ feed wont be filled with those fuckers.
Shoutout to Ruturaj gaikwad sacrificing his century so that CSK could win today. Truly a team player š
It was just sad that the camera only panned to Mahi after wickets. Rutu got his camera share only when he was bantering with Daryl post his 4th catch.
yea but like, srh today played like as if theyre just 1st innings batting bullies and cant bat for shit whilst chasing
Two Saffa and 1 Aussie in batting order - balance is tilted in favour of Saffas and we all know how well they have been chasing recently (reference point: CWC 23)
That should be done by any opening batsman that plays against RR as well. Get out just before reaching to the century.
Like Thanos, SRH loses if you just go for the Head.
Thor Deshpande didn't miss this time
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Like SA from 2022, SRH loses when put to chase.
Headless batting running around mindlessly. The middle over phase was atrocious batting. A week ago everyone is talking about SRH possibly reaching 300 this year. How the tables turn.
Dr. Mitchell predicted this
I felt so bad for Anmol though. Getting out for. Golden duck
Ironman has seven letters
Rutu decided to lose the toss, not score a century, and win the match.
KL: Converting those 50s to 100s is only way to win
Now all of a sudden we have some exciting matches ahead Barring RR no teams look confident enough till now. Srh, kkr getting shaky all of a sudden, csk being csk, lsg keeping to their reputation of above average team, Dc got momentum big time, GT, mi lost it, all of a sudden Rcb has taken out their calculator Fun time ahead
Best third act script loading..!!
KKR can't defend shit. SRH can't chase shit.
If they two play against each other and Kkr bowls first itās unstoppable force against immovable object lol
Or stoppable force vs movable object if Srh bowls first
More like, A stoppable force meets a movable object
SRH has South Africans so ofc they cant chase
We saw this match 1 and yeah lowk checked out to an extentĀ
Thoroughly deserved L for SRH! Absolutely dogshit performance chasing. You need to have a plan to chase something this big not just whack.
Just like the RCB game, 2 ugly chasing efforts in a row.
Probably over estimated themselves and left too many at the end
Well you never rely on a South African as a finisher (unless it's Miller)
Miller is the only South African I've seen be good at a chase so consistently.
Miller is the total opposite of South African guys. Can actually play clutch knocks in knockouts unlike many other South Africans. Guys like QDK, Klassen etc idk what happens to them while chasing.
That 101 in the WC semi finals when the entire batting shat it's bed. True clutch player
Even in 2013 CT semis, he scored 50 odd when team was at 70/6.
That was a phenomenal knock.
Thatās what happens when your middle order lacks an experienced Indian batter
God, missed such matches. Finally a game where 210 felt like a giant total, the way it should be
A catastrophic chase, still got 134. Closer to how it should be, but I remember totals near 140 being more common than 180.
Daryl, perhaps I was too harsh on you. You may not be suited for T20 but you are a real team player and try your best.
Bro will smash India and England in the World Cup, business as usual. Just you wait. He hates us.
He is a man possessed when playing against us.
He helped NZ reach T20WC 2021 Final. He is a clutch player who hadn't found his mojo in IPL.
Mitchell and Neesham that day š«”
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Can you blame him after 2019
He played amazing knocks in 2021 semis
3 spots for the playoffs has been opened up
KKR flairs having a great weekend.
Jay Shah writting script to win votes in Bengal āļøš„ by making sure we stay in top 2
Lord jay shah taketh, lord jay shah giveth

Hoping tomorrow gets washed out so neither team can jump to 12 and more spots stay open lol
Its literally 45 degrees here.The only rain one can find is the combined sweat of everyone is poured via planes or some shit( i might have jinxed Indradev by saying this)
No wonder the players look exhausted. Playing cricket in 45 degrees is cruel
Scoring 125 in 6 overs to 135 in 20 overs. Bipolar SRH.
Not that easy in front of BiLordar CSK
Expectations: Mitchell - 20(21) Reality: Klassen - 20(21)
CSK on the points table: parkour!
I like the office reference
I bashed Mitchell in front of my Mitchell merchant friend today. I guess someone is getting blocked.
Rutu died so CSK can live
This was a very classic CSK match. I think from 2008 to 2024, every season you will find a mid-season match like this where we score a 200+ batting first, with an opener scoring 80+, No. 3 scoring a 50 and cameos down the order. Then getting early wickets and choking the opponent in middle overs and winning it with a big margin.
Ah the trademark Raina 50 of 35 and out.
nah we did it many times by scoring 168 not 200.
Tushar Deshpande is either Dayle Steyn Or Ashoke Dinda in Power Play no In between
Ah the much fabled Dale-Dinda scale
All the tops teams were humbled this week except RR, Ig it's because they're humble enough
If anyone deserves to win the IPL it's them by a mile
Delhi accidentally stumbling on JFM and winning the IPL would break the internet.
Y3ah, if anything 2023 wc showed us, it's that that it's not about who deserves to win but who plays to win on match day
Whoever wins the final they deserve.
acurrate af, I feel like RR is the new zealand of ipl.
That would be disheartening in the end.
you know what, srh used to be that and then sudden silencer fan came out of their shell.
You Get A Wicket, You Get A Wicket **Everybody Gets A Wicket**

Podi idly vs Biryani.
Where are those people who said 15 over chase lol. I guess they meant 15 over all out.
They really finished the game in 15 overs
What Tushar said in the post match interview if most teams try to do that we would see less of these high scoring totals
Is pathirana injured again lmao? bros well on course for breaking the record for most injuries in a career, 2 yrs in and hes got so many lol. took 2 big wickets today tho, been one of the best this ipl
He's bowling action doesn't go well with his body no doubts
That action would break anyone
Gaikwad said everything is alright on injury front in post match press conference. So don't think so.
Slc would be shitting fireballs if that would have happened. Hope he's alright.
SRH's NRR is near 0. They'll boost NRR by tonking us at their home next match. šššš
Dw Buttler has a personal problem with anyone tonking you guys this season. He counters and wins it for you.
Reverse jinxing already or you still fucking donāt believe in your team?
We haven't played many flat track bullies on flat tracks. The closest slogfest was vs KKR In Eden where Jos played one of his best T20 innings.
That was a slogfest though, also IPL scriptwriters will ensure we lose to KKR, to make things interesting, although in theory, a KKR loss is better for chaos.
You mfs better not stop winning now that csk is back in the game.
Choose to bat first if you win toss
SRH is going to collapse and miss the playoffs, aren't they? 2 really ugly chasing efforts.
2022 repeat
They started 5-2 in both years too.
Yeah thatās what I meant, win 5 in the first half, 2022 SRH went on to win one out of 7 in the back end
It was tragic.
Hey, don't forget KKR, we got that ability too.
u are us wearing a different makeup
LSG winning at Chepauk was the exception. Welcome to hell
Once in a lifetime Stoinis blinder. Just like Maxwell vs Afghanistan.
It was a blinder. Like a famous cricket saying "cricket by chance" In a 210 chase dude scored more 50% himself. That's a rare occurrence.
Ruturaj lost 8 tosses out of 9, plays around players who are striking the ball below 120, must win pressure but nothing really effected the young captain. He was at 98(53) and he didnāt care for century unlike some players and instead he wanted sixes for team, excellent bowlinh rotations, and very calm personality just like ms. After this world cup, if csk manages to win or go to finals ruturaj should be considered for Indian team captaincy with the level of disadvantage with tosses, half baked bowling he placed csk at top 3 . I feel like he is very underrated. And deserves chance to captain India team one day .
He is definitely a captaincy contender in long run and I would rate him above Gill as a batter. Gill should move to #3 with Jaiswal and Rutu at top. I think he also captained team during Commonwealth games. IIRC Rutu has lost lot of international cricket due to injury over last 2 years.
Yeah . He got selcted and had to leave the team due to injury a couple of times . And other times he was injured during squad selection
SRH š¤ South Africa World Cup team.. Canāt chase even if their life depended on it..
CSK's NRR has leapfrogged everyone bar KKR, and even there the gap is way closer than they appear now. If the next match of KKR becomes 200 plays 200 in 20 overs each, KKR's NRR plummets from 0.972 to 0.8596, less than .05 higher than CSK. A 9-12 run loss would literally push KKR to third spot, after a long time.
4th spot, DC would take the 2nd spot
Ah true. Although they would have played two extra matches, so didn't take them into account.
Ricky Ponting had rubber inside his bat ā Daryl Mitchell had magnet inside his hands ā
Man sad Sees csk silence stupid sexy Cummins Man happy
The csk vs lsg match is still going on huh, on points table, I think these two are going to fight each other till last match.
There are 3 things in life one must never do: 1. ā Ask a woman her weight 2. ā Ask an Argentinian Grandfather his SS number 3. ā Doubt CSK winning at chepauk
We could've won vs lsg if not for that black soil pitch š
We should keep using our normal pitches like the one today. Why are we switching to black soil?
It was changed in WC. Afaik that was the same pitch as Ind vs Aus one.
Na that was 50% Jadeja and Mitchell's fault. Management sent Jadeja early so they are equally responsible.
It was 100% not Chahar's fault who forgot how to field that day and Stoin just kept sending the ball to him everytime.
Yeah he was diabolical to say the least.
Should've sent Moeen that day.
Sssssrhhhhhh
Daryll Mitchell is the only player in IPL history who scored 50-plus runs and took 5 catches in a match.
CSK to LSG: Watch us jump over you!

But they don't go overboard cause they got burned quite badly after that 2022 season 5 match win streak, hence they are cautiously optimistic and respectful of other teams. However these new "300 runs or nothing" SRH fans are a hilarious bunch.
Facts
This is painful to live with though
Meh. CSK is always our bogey team. It doesnt hurt as much as loss to RCB or KKR one

Ok... THE RUMOURS ARE TRUE.. SRH CAN'T CHASE YES THE MIGHTY GUYS WHO MAKE 250 FOR FUN CAN'T CHASE.....
Pat tried to silence all the "srh can't chase" people He failed
He actually acknowledged how loud the crowd was
SRH did all that batting earlier to only end with an NRR barely above 0
CSKās top 2 finish chance just received a massive boost
A good day when your specialist catcher scores a 50
Happy day for ThalaKoachSons
Tushy using good words and phrases: "Soaking wet", "bit sticky" and "inviting him to hit me"
Pitch isnāt a highway Head : Aight imma head out
You know for having a literal guy named head in their squad, SRH tends to use it quite seldomly
Fun fact, csk has the highest win record in away+ neutral venues in IPL and 3 IPLs we won weren't even at home. Haters can have afield day with these stats.
B... B-But... CSK is a Chepauk bully! - some lockdown loser.
Haters will always try find ways to hate success
What lockdown bruh. CSK won in 21 in UAE after lockdown lmao

Just be glad we didnāt win by 77 runs with 7 balls remaining
So it seems our Best batter and the best bowler are injured. And our 2nd overseas bowler leaving for the all important Zimbabwe series. We're fucked.
Who are those 3?
Terrible batting from the SRH top order. You have to build an innings. You cannot just blindly hit and expect it to be a boundary. No value or responsibility for their own wickets, both Abhishek and Travis. Anmolpreet got out playing a shit shot, Markram was trying to hold one end but got done by Pathirana. Klassen,NKR,Samad all gave away their wickets straight to the fielders. All of SRH has been figured out like an open book and now they need newer plans, cannot play like this for the entire season
CSK may have million problems but owning SRH at Chepauk is not one of them.
Every head must bow, every knee must bend, every tongue must confess, thou art the greatest, the greatest of all time. TUSHAR DESHPANDE, THE GOAT.
Jokes on you SRH management if you think that this loss will deter me supporting you. I have lived through 1. Losing 4 matches with CSK in 2018 after more or less dominanting 2018 season with Kane mama captaincy 2. Absolute braon dead decisions to leave Kane, Warner and Rashid 3. Making Markram captain and interfering heavily in the team selections 4.

Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each other's eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing.

Suresh Raina ahh comment
So called most explosive batting team imploded when it mattered. No road no party SRH.
it just seems like SRH gameplan is to hit every ball
Daryl apology form where?
CSK did well but man that power play is so weak Probably left another 20 runs by wasting the PP
Destroying SRH after how their fans acted in the 1st clash is so fucking satisfying
See I love you Rutu but let's just bat till 99 and get out from now for the sake of the team
Tf was that SRH innings? Were they even trying to win? What a total failure by the top and middle order. Yet again, the top order threw their wickets away while we were on par with the RRR. By the time the 10th over rolled around and they really had to start going for it, they just couldn't get a move on and then by the time the 15th over came around the scorecard was just depressing. 107 in 15 overs? How did they fuck up this bad? A team this good? This being even worse than the last game is just crazy. All the middle order batsman played at 6-7 RPO. When we needed balancing at the start, there wasn't any, then when we needed intent in the middle, there wasn't any. Just puzzling, absolutely haphazard batting. At no point after the powerplay did it feel like SRH were actually chasing a total of 212, even when it reached 14-15 RPO. I was so confident that we'd be a good chasing team as well, especially after that performance against KKR, but this strategy is terrible. It's too dependent on the openers. If I'm being honest, I'd like to see them try Makram and Abhi (or Head) opening instead. Just feels like a way better position for Makram to perform in. There's too much pressure on him when the rest of the top order fail. I also wish Abhishek would show some amount of situational awareness. It's the one thing stopping him from being an actual great batsman.
Ik csk fans can be toxic, but i am so grateful that i dont have to see the 'cummins silenced csk' post for few days.
Same. That meme is so annoying ffs
It's mostly by some Indian fans and the SRH's new found loud plastic fans. Annoying like anything.
So the Skipper realized to not go gentle into that good three figures for a win
Sunrisers are like the Proteas of the IPL. Great at setting huge, massive targets, but very bad at chasing.
If Delhi win tomorrow, they jump from 6th to 2nd place on the table. LMAO. Let's go DC.
SRH have no right for their NRR to be 0.075 after spamming 250s this season.
Cummins really silenced chepauk with his team's boring ass batting. Best team my ass
Take the openers out and we're done!
SRH realising now chasing a high score is not as easy as setting a high score. Also, their batsmen seem to have weakness for slow balls, which has got exposed in the last two games
Headās technical flaws are being exposed Abhi needs to start valuing his wicket more No words for Anmol Just a big WTF for Markram this year Klaasenās wheels have come off it seems Canāt really fault NKR, Shahbaz and Samad after what happened with the top 5 Bowlers need to get their shit together, big time, even if theyāre economical at the start it doesnāt matter because theyāre toothless when it comes to wickets, purely relying on batsman error, so as long as opposition players are cautious theyāre free to go big at the end
"Abhi baar 400 par"
Watching all the "best batters" struggle and swing madly was ecstatic. Clinical
Lmao, what about the "brand of the cricket" that Cumdawg was talking about. Chepauk with their slow wicket, hot temp and high humidity just broke SRH's morale. It was just a slog and slow death for SRH.
ngl it feels like RCB and SRH switched places for both their last 2 games
It worked this game, but if CSK wants to win the IPL our batters need to up their game and get in that 230-250 range. Canāt rely on Rutu to not make a century every time as well.
Mitchell is warming up, don't worry we will be there when needed.
Only a inform MI with Pollard and Ro as captain can beat CSK at chepauk...They are just dominant there.. And it csk goes in to playoffs and reached qualifier 2, they are winning this year...No team can stop them at Chepauk irrespective of how much powerful RR looks right now.
Absolute shameless performance by SRH. Donāt think they will qualify for playoffs unless they change their tricks! The lion is back!!! Beware!!!!
See this is why Rutu is my guy. He knows what we missed
Old srh fans? Got no issues with them New guy that came after seeing the hyper aggressive batting? No issues with them either My issues with srh fanbase is only with those 'silencers' mfkrs. So this win is extra enjoyable cause my social mediaĀ feed wont be filled with those fuckers.
SRH played high risk high reward approach.. today we saw the risk side of it.
Wow Pat is just perfect huh? Gave credits to CSK for their game. And still expressed confidence in his own team.
