13.4
Tait to Tiwary, (no ball) FOUR, and another one, Tiwary backs away, Tait goes for the bouncer, he swings hard and gets the connection well enough to send it soaring it over midwicket, it;s a no-ball as well
round the wicket goes Tait
13.3
Tait to Tiwary, FOUR, gets one in the slot and goes over mid off this time, stands tall and lofts the full ball one bounce to the boundary, Kolkata almost home
13.2
Tait to Tiwary, SIX, shot! Manoj backs away, Tait sprays this one full, and he reaches out to slice it over point for a maximum

I dont mind Shakib getting to bat..... since he is at no.7, he will come to bat either when there is a collapse or when its 17-18 overs and he has to slog every ball. That way its really hard to perform, so he is doing brilliantly with the ball, and hopefully the next match man of the match = Shakib Al-Hasan
spare a thought for balaji, the delivery to get rid of watson was one of the best this IPL. delievered from wide of the crease, landed on off, going towards leg-middle and then straightened to hit off stump. fantastic !

Balaji, shalaji. If it's not Shakib, it's not cricket.

Mashrafe was playing in that WC so it was him most probably.

Ashikur used to be a very aggressive bowler, and he was the favourite student of Andy Roberts as Andy himself told this boy has mentality like Andy used to have.
both ashikur and shafaq was playing in that game .... at auckland which was an under prepared pitch with variable bounce.
now we have to ask Valthaty himself whether the bowler was right handed or left handed. he shou
Bisla is a waste at the top order, Gambhir can open the batting: Kallis, Gambhir, Morgan, Pathan, Shakib, Tiwary is a better batting order. Each of Morgan, Pathan and Shakib is capable of scoring singles to get settled and then hit big. Tiwary can hit from the beginning of his innings.

I think only reason Bisla is playing right now is because he's the only other wicket keeper beside Haddin. Morgan and Kallis is a must in the KKR batting line up. KKR bowling line up needs lee since they don't have any other decent fast bowler except balaji. With Shakib getting 2 wickets in each game, he'll probably keep playing until he has a bad day.
I think they should go with your batting line up and move Bisla down to like 7 or something. I'm guessing he knows how to hit since they are opening with him, so if KKR have a huge batting collapse someday they can hope he'll click.

they have shreevats goswami, the keeper from the U-19 WC winning team. bisla has been good behind the stumps and he opens in role of a pinch hitter. KKR won't mind losing his wicket for a few quick runs. all the others are too valuable to use in this way.
