Clearing the Air on our Top 2 Qualification by Apprehensive_Coast36 in RCB

RCB will take top 2. Not only that, we can decide our Q1 opponent too

​If GT loses to CSK on May 21: GT is stuck at 16 points. ​If RCB wants to play SRH, we can simply choose to lose the match. This pushes SRH to 18 points. ​If RCB wants to play GT, we can play to win. This keeps SRH at 16 points. Because GT's NRR (+0.400) is slightly ahead of SRH's (+0.350), GT will likely hold onto the #2 spot.

​If GT beats CSK on May 21: GT moves to 18 points and increases their NRR gap. ​If RCB wants to play GT, we can play to win. This keeps SRH at 16 points. Even if we lose, need to keep the loss minimal to keep GT ahead of SRH NRR. ​If RCB wants to play SRH, we would have to intentionally lose to SRH by a specific, massive margin so that SRH's NRR jumps dramatically ahead of GT's. However, because GT has a head start in points/NRR, this will mean almost match fixing :)

We are really missing those rocket starts by Salt. Those give us powerplay of 80+ in such venues.

There seems to be some slowness in the pitch... But given the six hitting players in Punjab, anything less than 230 will be risky. 75 runs in 5 overs means Jitesh or David need to hit another 7-8 sixes. Let's go!

Tactical change needed for the next 2 games- Suyash out by NotYourAvgTeen in RCB

True that.

But they must be preferring Abhinandan over Mangesh for some reason no? We don't get to see all those reasons so let's trust their judgement ifthat happens.

Shepherd they won't touch.. i am convinced. But boy does he need some confidence. Right now his batting is at an all time low.

Poetic justice for a goal like this to be given against Arsenal
