Re: Indian Premier League (IPL)

Interesting Samson is ahead in the WK derby. With Ishan, KL, and DK back to back at #36, #37, and #41 wrt impact/game. Pant at #61. Jitesh #123. Jurel #145. The impact/game is skewed towards people who bat a bit up the order because they get more chances to bat.

Re: Athletics Thread (General/World)

If the Chinese guy paid them or whatever, then he should be fully banned along with these other ones too. But, it seems bizarre.

Re: Athletics Thread (General/World)

Well the Chinese winner may not be at fault. If I was running and for some reason, Chinese bribes, bookies, etc., the others let me win but I did not know about it or did not participate, then I should not be faulted. But this is totally wrong from the Africans' part. In fact, players holding hands ...

Re: Athletics Thread (General/World)

Weird collusion to let a Chinese runner win. The African runners should be suspended and if the Chinese runner was also complicit, he should be banned. For a while. This is no different than match fixing. Why did the African runners wave the Chinese to win? This looks bizarre.

Re: Indian Premier League (IPL)

I don't think they are traitors. It depends upon whether you are talking about individual events or aggregate. If the choice is: you will fail but your team will win and it is the WC final, almost all except the total psychopath will choose the team winning. However, if the choice is on the aggregat...

I do not follow golf except at the Asian Games, etc. Who decides those handicaps? On what?

Re: Indian Premier League (IPL)

I am perfectly fine with staying away from these two. My point was that Hardik is still the best pace-bowling allrounder. He is just very bad now. But the other all-rounders who bowl pace are all worse than him (sorry if I missed anyone). So, drop him. We will go without pace-bowling allrounders and...

Re: Indian Premier League (IPL)

Kumar, I will never cheer a home team player's dismissal to see anyone bat. I will also never cheer an opposing player if KKR is playing them even though I love them. ISF, Hardik was by the numbers the best player in this year's IPL at least one match back among pace-bowling allrounders, i.e., allro...

Re: Indian origin table tennis players

So, Kanak Jha served his 12 month suspension and is now considered clean, as far as spinach is concerned? Yes, the suspension was for 12 months from Dec'22 to Dec'23 for missing three tests. Then, when he was provisionally suspended, he participated in some activities which are not allowed when you...

So, after a few more matches. Now, the leaderboards are stabilizing a bit. Impact/game leaders (qual:3 matches): Kuldeep, Bumrah, Mayank Y, Parag, Rana, Chahal, Samson, Abhishek, Nata, Arshdeep, Khaleel, Gill Because bowlers get a chance every match, as do top order batters, but not lower order ones...
