Cricket avec Deutsch!

25 April 2009

The IPL is in Full flow. The rains surely do their part in disturbing the rythm. Ofcourse its the South African Herbst season. Vierfach is the effort of the umpires to have a game going.. even if it is for die fünf overs per side. Sounds really ridiculous!

Amidst all of this, the players on whom millionen dollar were showered, have really been pathetic - to say the least! Flintoff, sorry mate, you are not even worth mehrere hundert!

Wouldnt be suprised if anyone in the team management went upto him and asked: Wie machen Sie hier? - Null contribution indeed! On the other hand, the new captain of Bangalore, horribly absent in the mind. He only walks into the pitch to ask the Indian bowlers: Wie hißen Sie?! But then, even before the answer starts - Ich hiße.... he gets out! Unbelievably lost in his own world. Leave alone the fact that the team is losing heavily!

Deccan Chargers - man what a team! Extraordinary team, excellent team spirit. Sie lernen how to win, having put the past behind! But need to see if they can keep the winning habits going into Mai. They are the Number Eins team at the moment!

Kolkata Knights. To say the least, they have been most unlucky. Having put pressure on themselves with die mehrere captain policy, its crazy enough for starting off in a crazier tournament like this one!

Delhi - has the distinction of the only player who has scored hundert runs in the tournament so far! And to add to that, Sehwag and Gambhir make it a point to give a minimum of dreizig or vierzig runs at the top - its certainly amazing when they do it consistently. One or two exceptions, here and there are pardonable.

Rajasthan Royals. Mehrere average players but a very few exceptional players. Yousuf Pathan is certainly one of those. Having successfully hit sechzehn runs in vier balls - its an unbelievable achievement!

Kings XI Punjab want to say one one thing all the time: Entschuldigung! They look the most unbalanced and incomplete side of the tournament. If they reach the last four, it would be truly a miracle!!

Mumbai Indians: Star players and a cool combination. Need to keep their cool to get past the winning mark! Lets hope that they can make it to winning ways again :)

Looking forward to the games today for some more fun and content for the next post :)

Guten Tag!
