Title: IPL 2010 Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 12, 2010, 14:19:00 ITV4 are seemingly showing all the games, that's a bit better than my usual daytime telly.
Anyone watching this or are we all anti-Slogfest? Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, March 12, 2010, 14:26:58 Loved watching this whilst sitting outside in the Hotel bar drinking Kingfisher and being bit to death by Mosquitos in Bangalore. The Indians are the definition of fanatical about cricket.
Delhi Daredevils are my team. Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 12, 2010, 14:28:37 That's Gambhir and Sehwag's lot yeah?
I have no idea about any of them really, barring a few of the bigger names. Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 12, 2010, 14:40:21 Unless I'm going mad, Lionel Ritchie appears to be singing while a group of Klansmen dance in front of him. This is surreal.

Think so. The folk I was out working with all chose a team at random. No science to it at all! Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: iffy on Friday, March 12, 2010, 16:28:19 http://www.youtube.com/IPL

Anyone watching this or are we all anti-Slogfest? Nemo, I'm a bit more worried that you spend every day watching daytime telly... Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: alanmayes on Sunday, April 25, 2010, 18:33:46 Anybody currently watching the final live on ITV4?
Could well be an exciting finish,Chennai favourites now to beat Mumbai. Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: Nemo on Sunday, April 25, 2010, 18:35:10 Yep, watching this now. Pollard is a beast but still can't see 27 off 7.
Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: Nemo on Sunday, April 25, 2010, 18:43:48 Nowhere near, why on earth did they send Pollard in at 7?
ICC World T20 starts Friday, no break in this circus lark. England have actually got a reasonable team for once, but still can't see us getting anywhere Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: alanmayes on Sunday, April 25, 2010, 18:51:58 Strange tactics by Mumbai leaving Pollard down the order when facing a good total by Chennai.
Hayden made up for his earlier dropped catch by catching Pollard,as the commentators said, heads up to Dohni for keeping mid off in and his captaincy was pretty impressive. It looks as if the World T20 could be a pretty even tournament,with no outright favourite. Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: Nemo on Sunday, April 25, 2010, 19:00:35 Good news is TMS are actually bothering with this one. New thread for it?
Title: Re: IPL 2010 Post by: Spencer_White on Sunday, May 2, 2010, 19:05:58 I was glad to see this covered on ITV4 and watched quite a lot of it.
They got rid of the Indian woman who could barely speak English, and had some pretty good panelists. Seeing Dhoni hit sixes out of the ground to finnish off the games was my highlight. But what really comes across is the raw excitement and enthusiasm of the crowds. That spontaneity. Weve lost a lot of that in football now, and the fans need to bring it back. |
