Today IPl match between RCB and Deccan Chargers ended just now with Deccan chargers winning by 9 runs. it is good for CSK because they get into semi finals. Cricket is a game of luck and lucky people win. Of course finals -- I think this time Delhi team will win. They are playing well.

they way the RCB batsmen batted, i feel everything is fixed and thought of changing the channel. They just threw away their wickets and didnt play responsibly. I beg to differ for your point that Cricket is a game of luck. we all know that Fortune favors the brave. Without Hard work, you cant win matches. IPL is just business and entertainment with little amount of Cricket. Hence luck factor can work a lot in IPL, especially in the last ball finishes. As per my guess, Chennai will go to the finals but lose to the other finalist. it may be KKR or DD.

can you believe Amit mishra bowling economically and taking couple of wickets? but he did it in both the matches against royal challengers and rajasthan royals. he got thrashed in all other matches of this season but he bowled exceptionally well in the last two matches. this shows that how batsmen of royal challengers and rajasthan royals where lethargic and threw away their wickets. i went to chepauk yesterday and had a chat with securities of the stadium. they are damn sure that chennai will reach the finals. when i asked for the reason they told me, if the home team is not playing in the finals, the crowd wont be coming which in turn affect the ticket revenue. so BCCI has fixed such that chennai super kings reaches the final. it was a crazy reason but i cant deny it since its logically correct.

lol.i felt the same way.the moment agarwal got bowled,i called my dad who was busy with his work and said "dad,they already fixed the match so chennai can go through to the play-offs" lol. at the end of the match my dad said"well atleast they were trying" and i thought, " what do you expect ? millions of viewers are watching this match and when they throw away the wickets,do they make it obvious?" i for one still believes the match was fixed because i cannot find any other reason

Ravisivan not everyone is as luck as Mr M S Dhoni, till to this date Deccan Chargers lost almost all the games which they should have won mostly by poor bowling performance. But suddenly from no where they started bowling well and won two consecutive games which the other two teams has to win to get into playoffs. RCB today lost because of Virat Kohli, why I say this because in one over he scored a six and got enough runs for that over and run rate too was not that high. But Virat tried to hit another six where the boundary is long and got out. Here Kohli should have shown little bit more patience and should have waited for last 2 overs. The last 2 overs were bowled by Deccan Chargers weakest bowlers like Veer Pratap singh and A Reddy. RCB should have won this game instead they lost the game at a stage where they have to win to assure a place in semis. It is all RCB's poor batting display nothing else. I feel KKR is looking dangerous side compared to DD, Narine is bowler to whom all the teams are struggle to read his line and length. But you never know when Mumbai Indians from no where perform expectationally. So, only luck can make CSk win this year tournament.

you keep using the term luck while associating with Dhoni.yet you support CSK? dont you think its high time that teams like delhi and kolkata who played exceptionally well throughout the tournament deserves the title instead of Mr and Mrs.Luck?

Mumbai indians initially won IPL. subsequently for the last two occasions CSK won. Delhi and Kolkata are the two strong competing teams in my view for iPL5. let the best side win the trophy. we will watch TV and enjoy. True Dhoni has been lucky in many games including this.

Professor sir: Analysing the way this IPL has gone -- i may not be surprised if say after a year or two we get info that the matches or IPl has been fixed or some understandings had been there.. nothing can be said on this score. good day.

What kind of luck Dhoni have which Chennai got and i mean it they migh going to win it and that would be blunder It's not the things that need to happen DC made two team out of playoff and so did Delhi to punjab. I think it was the crucail match between CSK and RCB that set for nothing but sharing of points made it all, here it was key to CSk reaching playoff. Hope they win it, to suprise all againa anf again

Chennai Super Kings turned out out to be the luckiest team in this IPL, I think many other teams deserved to be in the playoffs than Chennai Super Kings, but they were lucky enough. I also believe Delhi Daredevils will win this IPL as they are doing so well in this IPL and have shown consistency in this IPL ...

noble: welcome to mylot. I have been watching Delhi playing well most of its matches. If CSK is not going to improve performance it will lose in semi final or finals.

I think this win can put a smile on thousands of face and I am happy to tell you that it includes me too. I hope they will make use of this opportunity. Delhi is doing a good job and they have chance to win the game. Any way we cannot predict them. The only thing we can do is just wait and see them.

wonderboy: i am also extremely happy. RCB people must be feeling very bad. but cricket is a game of luck and luck mainly. 75% delhi 25% CSK may win the final in may view, based on their performance so far.
