IPL Match 24 RCB vs CSK

I CALLED IT CAME

THE BRAND

Did I say it might spin later on? I am an f ing Guru!

Why did I listen to you lot about the dew!

Full bank RCB....or should have been!

Taking one last lay of RCB at 1.17. Still leaves £650 green so not too bad even if it trains.

Billings some one once said could play spin!

Ice work from QDK even if it was just outside off stump!

erm it was a great ball! He wasn't even in the frame for the stumping! it spun huaoge!

WD are you pished

Agreed that if someone is bowling so well, keep him on

No Padowan!

Pork Belly nearly ready. Sweet potato, red pepper roasted, pan fried courgette and asparagus!

Champagne or Shiraz?

SHIRAZ

Jadeja? He should be at 8.

M&S ready meal?

WD do u have a chef?

I saw that pork belly in tescos the other week and it looked 60% fat and 40% meat, is that what its supposed to be?

sounds like your type of ratio Grant

and deep fried Mars bar for afters?

MEAT IN SUPERMARKETS OH DEAR

GET A GOOD BUTCHER

NO EXCUSE WHERE YOU LIVE

SRY. 

Grant, no I don't have a chef!

T3, no it wasn't a ready meal

and Bob, I have a weakness for Shiraz. I had no Sauv Blanc in the fridge, just Champagne. Yes I should have gone with the Champs, mea culpa!

and pecker

If grant could have taken his iron Ling with him I am sure he would have shot some fresh meat instead of going to Tesco's

although killing a wild boar with a sling shot is a little dangerous even for a wild man like grant!

so pecker what are u saying, pork belly isnt supposed to be mainly fat?

youve lost me

Dont you worry grant,

Fat is good and tasty!

Keep away from the sugar and you will be ok!

so is it mainly fat then? nobody seems to know

This is ashley on now, no bowling left. need some lucky wickets!

WOW!

Anyone being mullered by this?

Depends on the cut Grant. You get a huge covering of skin which you crisp and some fat underneath. very tasty!

how is that not a wide

Pretty even on both now for enough almost to cancel out the toss bet. Not had both halves of them matched much recently.

that was it

RCB used their good bowling, cupboard is bare now

Grant,

Roasted Pork Belly is so nice you don't need sauces. Try it at the pub. Just pork Belly and vegetables and potatoes, lovely jubbly!

CDG is a better bowler than Corey!

Nevertheless Corey on the mark so far ......Furiously pedalling backwards.

I take back my pedalling backwards

Imminent Flip!

Gone to £700 CSK, 1.2k RCB. Still a lot needed, although this batting, with Bravo to come, against this bowling, could do it.

CDG is a better bowler than Anderson ( Corey )

A fat spinner for sure but canny at times. Too slow and difficult to hit at times!

Glad I have not traded this lately, that is part of my new strategy last 3rd of the game STAY the F**k OUT!

Definately possible!

Although I topped up on RCB at 1.68! WTF!

MSD with a shocking haircup

Looks like they'll need 2 overs from Anderson/Sundar/Negi

good bowling

rates climbing now to uncontrollable levels

Pork belly is all about the fat but a decent butcher is so much better for less travelled and quality MEAT you wont get from Tesco(its all lies)..............

Loving this over having backed RCB at 1.67 on the second 6. Did get a bit off at 1.39 though.

I dont dispute that! was just wondering about pork belly cuts in general as I have never had it, didnt know if tescos looked very poor or was standard to have so much fat on it!

This is still on as long as they get to the last over!

Shame about the last ball 4!

Grant

trust me on this. Go to a decent pub and try it there with a decent mash! And have some decent white wine with it!

I will give it a bash WD

Damn missed 1.95!

Went even then backed RCB 1.5 and couldn’t lay off 1.4 after single so stuck it. Can’t really complain about 1.3k and 700 greens though.

LOL

omfg what a throw

Damn missed on 2.06 too!

1 pole to aim at and goneski, wow

Was 2.12 I think but I felt I’d shot my bolt earlier.

Umesh makes up for the dropped catch!

RCB went over 2.25

Was still 32 from 14 balls so over evens was value but would have felt awful if they’d trained it.

Back to where I last backed RCB! Will take it off at 1.4 if available. Got to think 30 from 12 can’t be better than 4s no matter who’s batting.

CSK in mammoth trouble now

Can’t do it. No way RCB value to lay any more than 1.2 before that ball and CSK surely dead now.

Astonishing shot. Irritating but astonishing.

Never wide!

Okay, perhaps a bit wide.

Terrible bowling.

Really didn’t think that one was wide.

pmsl @ siraj

so basically already given 3 off the last ball already...

Wrong again though.

My pocket keeps talking.

Anderson again?

That 1.2 from about 3 balls and a month back...

RCB really are a joke team

Just 21 runs from last 4 balls.

Shocking, bowl it in the blockhole!

Don't mention a Thai.

Forgot about Thai someone better win this!

Honestly Kohli's captaincy... why is Anderson still bowling? Where is CdG? How can Kohli be so bad at IPL, terrible use of bowlers and team selection.

Given him free swings. Not even on the stumps!

Quite a game though

Yeah, easy to be critical after the event but plenty saying bowl the fat spinner earlier and certainly you have to give him an over or two to save Anderson being totally lined up. No excuse for the bowling itself though. RCB needed a near miracle with 8 balls left and won with 3 of them to spare!

Is Southee injured?

Sorry, 2 balls to spare. Given they needed 28 from 8 though...

Well that was boring let's look forward to the new improved 100 ball format.

How did you go Charlie? Just stuck with your early cash out?

Yes FS. Didn't see any reason to go any further. Backed at 2.08 cashed out at 1.4 which was good enough for me especially when you can't trust RCB to defend anything.

If I can avoid it I don't like to get too involved in second innings. Doesn't mean I frequently don't have to and if I think odds are totally wrong quite happy to back short or lay long.

There’s a tension between trading back and forwards and value sometimes. I had RCB as such outrageously good value at 1.2 with 28 needed off 8 that I didn’t lay at that price despite having got a back of RCB in at 1.5 to go much greener on them looking for a lay at 1.4 shortly after (this being an over or so earlier). Next thing they’d lost with 2 balls left! It is amazing how many swings you can get in a close game. Obviously there weren’t many flips in this one with RCB starting favourites, going out post toss, going odds on very early and then a flip before the run out, back to RCB favourite, then final flip with the edged 4 first ball final over. There were loads of oscillations around 1.3 or 1.4 though.
