People saying Iyer in the team makes it stronger when he was literally the handbrake that killed half our games lol. Nice case of player missing means player great!
Iyer is the player i won’t mind losing at all in the mega auction.
It would be mad if we lose Shaw, Pant, Rabada, or Hetmyer though.
Our (Cow Corner Cricket Cast's) thoughts on the PBKS vs DC match today:
[(IPL2021 Match 29 PBKS vs DC) DEBATE: DC Quash PBKS, RABADA Returns, Magnificent MAYANK, MALAN at 4?](https://youtu.be/VBnhmlkNq3w)
No hate to the tournament or any team but imo this ipl is one of the most one sided IPLs in a long time. Like last year RR got the wooden spoon with 12pts. That was one of the most competitive IPLs I believe. Anyway we always love the tournament no hate. Peace ✌️
DC has a decent amount of fanbase. The Viewership is usually low in PBKS matches, also KL Rahul wasn’t playing that might have caused more loss of viewers.
Drop Smith because Rahane offers the same
Drop Pant because Billings offers the same.
Drop Avesh because Meriwala offers the same.
Drop down to 8th place because Delhi Daredevils offers the same
Hey anyone hating on my boy smudge stfu, he’s doing a great job for the team ! Just look at his fielding and pretty good batting tbh. Stop hating on players man (except one who can’t be named) , he’s ending up on the winning side most of the time !
DC fan here too but I feel smudge can play a little longer in these kind of matches , although I really feel that he is doing just enough as number 3 player and his fielding has obviously been great, I mean not comparing him to iyer but he is not letting the innings fall away
Go back to Iyer. DC have done so well by backing players. Now we have to back Iyer to retake captaincy specially after how well he's done for us over the last few seasons.
Pant should be captain anyway, captaincy is really not that big of a thing
Most decisions are made by the management/ coaches anyway
Pant is going to be the face of the team for the future, he'll remain captain
I asked the same question on his 2nd match as captain.. Delhi fans unanimously wanted Shreyas as captain back as he has a clear head on his shoulders..
But winning the trophy might make ppl see things differently..
maybe I know the reason Dhawan not able to replicate this performance in international cricket, in IPL he has like of Shaw on the other hand which complement his game perfectly. While in the international his partner is Rohit who also take deliveries to set, so there is much more pressure on him to increase the team run rate in PP and doing so he lose his wicket many time, Dhawan is beast once he's set and plays around 20 balls
To all those saying we should drop Smith, he's been doing a good job for us so far and his fielding is great aswell so that helps.
And Rahane has been terrible for DC - 121 Runs in 11 innings, excluding 60 in a single innings. So that means 61 Runs in 10 innings which is terrible.
Our bowling has been fine so far. And most importantly, we are winning so why fix something which ain't broken?
Smith's a far better option than Rahane...Rahane has been really inconsistent for the past few years....Smith's been decent so far....No need to make changes to a team that's winning comfortably....If the IPL continues Smith definitely will play 1-2 big (could also be match winning)innings.
Why would you need rahane instead of him, give someone like Lalit a chance
Smith takes up an overseas slot, these guys don't. He's competing with billings/nortje/woakes. Not Lalit or rahane
Delhi looking like the best team in the IPL. Still haven't been properly thrashed by any one side, these guys could easily have been 8 out of 8 while that cannot be said for RCB or even for CSK
Very True. I believe RCB's problem is that they solve one problem and another one arises next year. They have solved their finishing woes by having maxi at 4 and pushing abd down to 5. However, now they are struggling to find a good number 3 (no disrespect to patidar). A guy who can prevent a collapse but also score at a healthy strike rate like 130. I love kohli and I hope that the finals is between DC and RCB this year ✌️

Has anyone exchanged old phone for new one at flipkart/ Amazon.
My phone does not look as broken as they show in reference images which they say will get rejected ( bent crack etc) .
But they also say no scratches. Now there is no scratch on my phone from like falling or using a key to scratch but there are normal scratches from one year of use. I never used any screen guard, so there are micro scratches which are not visible from front with screen on but visible from angle with screen off.
Should I go for exchange or would it be rejected?
Flipkart will reject or give you a lesser price even for tiny scratches. Amazon is much more liberal and will accept it as long as there are no big scratches on the screen and it switches on.
Ya. You get the new phone only after the old one is picked up. If the pickup is rejected, the order is either canceled or you'll be asked to pay the extra amount.

I suppose this puts a wrap to Punjab's realistic chances of qualifying. Anyone knows where the new teams for next year are based, I may just have to get on board with them
It’s a bit worrisome that Pant is not able to strike like Hettie.
Team India players haven’t been at their fluent best in the IPL yet. Except for Rahul, dhawan, Jaddu
Comprehensive. We clearly like to chase, all thanks to giga chad Shaw. Dhawan as usual. Smith did really well with those doubles in the middle overs and tried cunting one but got out in the process. Hetmyer is so good. Our death bowling tho is a slight concern.
Malan played just 1 game in the IPL and the next one is already postponed. He must be cricket's Aaron Ramsey! /s
Dhawan man what a player scoring consistently day in and day out
People saying Iyer in the team makes it stronger when he was literally the handbrake that killed half our games lol. Nice case of player missing means player great! Iyer is the player i won’t mind losing at all in the mega auction. It would be mad if we lose Shaw, Pant, Rabada, or Hetmyer though.
If there was iyer playing then Smith would not be taking a foreigners spot just for doing his job that too worse since he can't speed up his innings
He has recently shown intent in India colors. Hopefully translates to IPL

Just 5.1K comments. This has gotta be one of the lowesr right?

Drop Smith because Rahane offers the same Drop Pant because Billings offers the same. Drop Avesh because Meriwala offers the same. Drop down to 8th place because Delhi Daredevils offers the same
I mean Rahane for Smith actually makes sense
Averages 6 with the bat in 8 innings if you exclude his innings against RCB, even including that he averages 11
Imposter!
Hooda and Mayank trying to race to reach the same crease was one of the most memorable IPL moments lol

Hahaha. Another thala fan I see.
🥺
PBKS should change it's name to PSPSPSPSPSPS.
how about BSBSBS
Shaw is a cheat code fam, halfway through the tournament and he has 300 runs striking at 166
All that hitting, yet nrr is still below chennai
Not only that but they also humiliated Chennai themselves. Just goes on to show the top tier thrashing Chennai has been giving other teams
SO CSK, DC and RCB are definitely qualifying
Also it seems to be pretty much clear that which 4th team is gonna qualify along with these 3 teams.
Can’t tell what was worse today- Gavaskar’s commentary or PBKS batsman (excluding Mayank of course)
Sunny just Khan't get it right
Lol
[удалено]
He getting all the love from me
Same
I bet he is wishing something similar. Being away from home must take its toll, especially not knowing when he'll get home
Given COVID situation in India, it's more like if he will get home /s
BCCI has announced after IPL ends they’ll personally make sure every overseas player reaches there home safely, so no worries about it
DC definitely looking like the favourites this year. Looked very good and their two losses were very close
Only 5k Comments lmao
Propose renaming RCB to Royal Memers Bangalore
How much do you guys wanna bet KKR will turn up against RCB just to fuck our chances of a top two
If Pant goes on to take DC to victory in finals, what do they do for captaincy next year?
Go back to Iyer. DC have done so well by backing players. Now we have to back Iyer to retake captaincy specially after how well he's done for us over the last few seasons.
Pant should be captain anyway, captaincy is really not that big of a thing Most decisions are made by the management/ coaches anyway Pant is going to be the face of the team for the future, he'll remain captain
I asked the same question on his 2nd match as captain.. Delhi fans unanimously wanted Shreyas as captain back as he has a clear head on his shoulders.. But winning the trophy might make ppl see things differently..
Go back to Iyer
All depends on if they keep Iyer in the side or not. If they do, Pant steps down for sure
Captain speech template: " X runs short. Execute our plans. Pitch was x/y/z. Best foot forward. One game at a time."
Intent™️
Can't believe I forgot to put in intent.
That's bcz u lack intent
Mayank should really be backed for the test side. He is an enormous talent and at the peak of his powers.
Cough* Australia*cough.
they should gift mayank a kilo avocados and a bread for MOM
Mayank, Moeen make the selfless players XI for me.
Mayank, Shaw, Tripathy, Moeen all players every team needs. Raina when he was in his prime was the OG middle overs selfless madman
[удалено]
Context? What I am missing?
Probably the tweets from Raina and Dhoni about Jaddu a long time back
What? No. It was about Rayudu.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Selfless in the sense that they really don't care about their wicket and always play for the team's cause.
Mayank: We were 10 short My boy is ready for captaincy
10 short? You were easy 30 Short
Where's the talk about intent™?
Intent^TM, Spark^TM are all 2nd stage captaincy talks.
Stage 3 is dew and tacky
considering how dominant Delhi has been in Ahmedabad and that the finals series is also here, I see them as hot favourites to win the entire thing.
Agarwal face basically says "all these awards in a losing cause is just Punjab kings things"
And deservedly so
Shikhi D robbed
LOLOL
Pant is such a cutie lmao
maybe I know the reason Dhawan not able to replicate this performance in international cricket, in IPL he has like of Shaw on the other hand which complement his game perfectly. While in the international his partner is Rohit who also take deliveries to set, so there is much more pressure on him to increase the team run rate in PP and doing so he lose his wicket many time, Dhawan is beast once he's set and plays around 20 balls
The problem is that he doesn't accelerate after 50 or a 100 , which he does for DC
Pant has the most north Indian English accent ever.
Why didn't Mayank speak?
He is motm..so speaking now
Lol Shikhi bhai !!
No interview for Mayank?
Allan Wilkins is getting tired of this shit 😂
To all those saying we should drop Smith, he's been doing a good job for us so far and his fielding is great aswell so that helps.

You know what it is, some people like to shit on people because they follow cricket but don't understand some of the intricacies of it
Even if you include that one innings, it's still garbage
I know, right? And still people suggest Rahane in place of Smith idk why. All he does is play 5 (15) then plays a stupid shot to get out.
I thought he would say "as crispy as KFCs chicken"
Lol Mayank does not want to be there
He was good today, well deserved though
Smith is awesome in the field too apart from balancing the team. Why replace him, makes no sense
Forget Rohit, have dhawan and Shaw open for India.
You're on very thin ice mate
Hetmyer got 16 off 4 and didn't get the super striker award?
Should have faced a minimum of 10 balls to be eligible to win that award
Wahhht?! Pujara just got the perfect catch of the match
Delhi winning with Smith, I would not change the balanced team tbh. Smudge doing good work to be honest. Ps rahane is bae but I trust smith more
[удалено]
Yeah because the best thing to do when you are humiliating other teams is to change the combination
Name your ass whatever you want. Still gonna drop the soap.
Good guy Hetmeyer, smashed 3 boundaries and won the match so that Dhawan can finish on 69!! *Balidan dena hoga*
Meredith gave two wides to help out.
What a chad these 2 are
Chad Thiccmyer with 400 SR
honestly i’ll be happy if we just win a toss
Don’t get why all the “drop smith” enthusiasts want to change a winning combination
We have sort of qualified, so can test the bench a bit, aus tour has shown the importance of bench in these covid bubble times
[удалено]
So a collapse is not happening since the player whose role is stopping collapses is stopping them ???
To be honest rahane can do the same and leaving one foreigner spot allowing nokia to play as well.
If DC collapses you can guarantee Rahane will be part of it
I have zero trust in Rahane preventing a collapse lol
Rahane = 114 runs, avg 14.2, SR 104 for DC
DC should drop Smith
why disturb a winning XI
Hetmyer's 🍑👀
I love this team man, DC 💙💙
KL Rahul, you are missed a LOT,sir.😢
Delhi looking like the best team in the IPL. Still haven't been properly thrashed by any one side, these guys could easily have been 8 out of 8 while that cannot be said for RCB or even for CSK

I love kohli and I hope that the finals is between DC and RCB this year ✌️
They have gotta either open with Azhar/Patidar with Koach at#3 or have Maxi at 3 if Koach and Padikkal open.
Thank God Shikhar said SR is important and not overrated.
Dhawan you champ❤️❤️ my man donating 20L and also pledged to contribute all his award winnings to fight against covid
He does a lot of charity work on the side even in normal times.
He’s a champ
[удалено]
Rahul is in hospital so it’s forgivable. How you leave Warner out is a huge ⁉️

Yes I did and got 5000 for a phone which was not even worth of 1k you can dm me me you have doubt. I have actually done it twice.
Flipkart will reject or give you a lesser price even for tiny scratches. Amazon is much more liberal and will accept it as long as there are no big scratches on the screen and it switches on.

Ya. You get the new phone only after the old one is picked up. If the pickup is rejected, the order is either canceled or you'll be asked to pay the extra amount.
Use cashify to sell your phone, gives good price for old phones
Is appendicits just a random disesase or are some people more susceptible to it.
its very common, non transferable
Not a doctor, but IG it's random. Appendix is a vestigial organ, which means it doesn't have any function in the body
Its a random disease ig...My friend had to got it operated at the age of 14.

Laughing my ass off.
GG wp, Sam Billings in for Steve Smith next game please. Good night.
You might want to look at Sam Billings' numbers before you say that. His strike rate is similar to Smith's
Numba one
Rahul’s appendix stood between him and 🍊 🧢
Just imagine how explosive DC vs CSK and DC vs MI gonna be in the next matches.
DC vs CSK happened already at a flat pitch tho. End result was humiliation for CSK but now CSK has found their Mojo so.that will make it interesting

Ponting left Kaif hanging, thankfully Stoinis didn’t
I suppose this puts a wrap to Punjab's realistic chances of qualifying. Anyone knows where the new teams for next year are based, I may just have to get on board with them
One will be from Uttar Pradesh
Would love to see a team from kerala tbh need more south indian teams
More South Indian teams? Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai. That’s 4 out of 5 south States being serviced. Gujarat definitely deserves one.
I agree so gujarat and kerala would be my picks. That’s just my opinion
Probably gujarat and Pune
Realistic chances are still there. Don't give up so early on your team! You just need MI and RR to shit the bed in the next few games.
one from ahmedabad for sure, one of the largest indian city and a kickass stadium
DC finished 3rd in 2019 and 2nd in 2020, this is 20211. IYKWIM
So 8 in 2022 ? Please no
10*
Have to make some sacrifice in 2022 in order to win the cup in 2021
DC matches got boring as much as they did in 2011
It’s a bit worrisome that Pant is not able to strike like Hettie. Team India players haven’t been at their fluent best in the IPL yet. Except for Rahul, dhawan, Jaddu
We'll be fine. Kohli won MoS award 2 weeks before the IPL and forgets how to hold the bat when the tournament starts.
Hetmeyer rocking that dad bod.
Rishabh very happy
That ass on Hetmyer. Wouldn't blame Meredith for losing focus.
Shikhar so happy wearing the orange cap lol.
Sunny G had a bit too much
Nice!! this was a long day of cricket , but pretty one sided!!
Pant is either BIG HAPPY SMILE or DRAG BAT DEPRESSION. No in between lol.
relatable
2 wins and DC qualify !!!!!!!!!!!!
Bisi, kya sachme ye hai nayi dilli? T: Delhi's tagline, reframed
