Is RCB simply based on Gayle?

Banglaguy · #1 May 17, 2011, 11:57 AM

Well the first match he doesn't score, and now his team are 4 down with 40-odd on the board....

Is this the future of Bangladesh possibly, the huge pressure on Shakib?

I love how you just relate this back to Bangladesh cricket, so randomly. But to ans your qs, no, it's is not the future of Bangladesh cricket. It IS Bangladesh cricket. Every thing based on or around Shakib. Everyone else sucks.

RCB was at the bottom 4 before Gayle walked in. Now they are leading. What_a_buy! Kohli, ZKhan, and Vettori couldn't do anything to win.

This is Banglacricker after all

I love you too man! And Imrul doesn't suck, it's just he isn't as talented, but he works hard, and he is doing well. And yeah, look how fragile their bowling looked today. Shakib is the face of our cricket, I mean, whenever we win a game against the G8, count on shakib to have done something. NZ, Eng wc (2wk + 35 odd), so I guess we are

I was really hoping that the BD players would use the WC as a platform to accelerate from.

Off topic - Did you see the thunder around the stadium, it looked so stunning... Subhanallah.. And that stadium is beautiful!

Gayle???

Have you seen the number of Innings each player has played?
Check those, and then come back. Compare the averages and the Strike rate.

ya yashsexnana.

I hate ungraceful people. Gayle pretty much pulled RCB's asses out of a giant hole, and put them on the top of the table. If Kohli was so good, wasn't he winning games for RCB then?

If it wasn't for Gayle, RCB would be screwed, real talks, I'ma link this back to Bangladesh...
If it wasn't for Shakib in 75% of our victories, we'd be screwed.

He is also doing it for them. Has hit 4 sixes already.

He has now won MoM... He says low total, and he wants to play circumspectly... *Says with a strike rate of 150*

yashsaxena · #10 May 24, 2011, 01:24 AM

yes guys

Gayle have proven that my statement is wrong.

I'll take my words back

now supporting CSK and RCB

Without Gayle, RCB is on par with KTK and Pune. Gayle is such a destructive player that things look extremely easy when he fires and he is firing regularly in this IPL. Kohli is a good player; but not a match winner by his own. The only other match winner in the Bangalore team is de Villiers. Other than that Aravind and Vettori are also playing the role very well.

Gayle isn't a hazard just to teams but Albie Morkel's knee
Good thing Mash isn't there, he might have destroyed his knee again

Rabz · #13 May 24, 2011, 06:03 AM

Gayle has single handedly turned things around for RCB.
The guy who first thought of signing Gayle half way thru the series has done his team the biggest favour.

Banglaguy · #14 May 24, 2011, 10:36 AM

What was Gayle's base price?
