oops..ther s still a chance for CSK goes down to play in 'Eliminator' round..
it does nt depend on today match.. it all depends on RR v SRH & MI v Punjab matches...
if RR & MI win their respective matches nd CSK lose in last match wit low RR against RCB (if), then it wil be prob. for CSK.. :oops:

[Brianengab]

Punjab & KKR still have chance for playoff only if they won their respective 2 matches & 1 match of RCB & 2 matches of SRH losses happened...
After all, NRR wil decide the 4th team for the Playoff.. :)

17.5
Parnell to Pathan, OUT, whoa, what happened there! it was dug out by Pathan and he wanted to go away for a single, the non-striker wasn't coming through, the batsman was very close to where the ball was on the pitch, the bowler was trying to get close to it, Pathan taps it away with his foot, and the question there is whether it was deliberate or not! Third umpire is having a look at it and wow, the umpire has given it out, looked more on the side of it being deliberate than inadvertent there, but YP isn't happy, he waits for a long, long time, much like Inzy Haq would after getting bowled.

Sahaj: "i wonder why they are not considering that first Parnell hold the hand of Pathan then he kicked the ball."

Jury: "That did look deliberate, if you kick the ball by mistake its normally using the front of your leg. This was a classic way how a footballer would kick a ball.."

Karguvel: "This is not the football game. You shouldn't tackle the opponent :P"

Abhinav: "Pathan needs to stop whining. The TV replay is more revealing than he realizes!"

Always felt that the incident involving Salman Butt, Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif was not an isolated one, nor the only instance of match/spot fixing and the 3 are merely scapegoats in a bigger mafia

[CEDYBLUE]

BCCI Statement:

"The BCCI is shocked and saddened at the recent developments. The BCCI has zero tolerance to corruption. We will offer all cooperation to the Delhi police and all other authorities in their investigations in this matter. The IPL Governing Council has met and decided that the cricketers found involved will be dealt with severely.

As of now, the 3 players viz; Ankeet Chavan, Ajit Chandila and S. Sreesanth stand suspended pending enquiry. All information required to bring the persons involved to book will be collected and strictest action will be taken, if found guilty.

The BCCI engages the services of the anti corruption wing of the ICC to educate and monitor players and support staff in prevention of corruption of any form in the game. In fact, it is wholly unfortunate that despite such education, best playing conditions and terms of engagement offered, some players seem to be indulging in such activity.

[scorpio]

We need to wait for the full details to emerge. IPL-nnalE media-kku oru thani kushi and they will blow things out of proportion.

I'm simply unable to believe Sreesanth who plays for Team India would do such a thing fully knowing that his career will get finished once for all.

[scorpio]

Time to retract my statement.....looks like Delhi Police have solid video evidences to prove the guilt of the 3 loosus. Good to know that the rot is with these 3 players only.

Shame on you Sreesanth :hammer: :hammer: How dare your family izhuthufy Dhoni and Bajji to cover your cunningness? :evil:

Dravid- I feel very very sorry for you :cry2:

Note: Y'day's Bambis win is not real :yes:

[Dilbert]

What is Spot fixing for the starter :

Spot-fixing refers to illegal activity in a sport where a specific part of a game is fixed. Examples include something as minor as timing a no ball or wide delivery in cricket or timing the first throw-in or corner in [association football]. Spot-fixing attempts to defraud bookmakers illegally by means of a player agreeing to perform to order by pre-arrangement.[1] As such spot-fixing differs from match fixing, where a whole match is fixed, or point shaving, a specific type of match fixing in which corrupt players (or officials) attempt to limit the margin of victory of the favoured team. Spot-fixing is more difficult to detect than match fixing or point shaving. Spot-fixing is most associated with the betting markets of the Indian subcontinent where bets can be placed on individual deliveries in a cricket match.[2] The advent of Twenty20 cricket is said to have made spot-fixing more difficult to detect[3] as has the growth of Internet gambling and spread betting.

How Sreesanth, Chandila, Chavan and bookies spot-fixed in IPL 6

New Delhi: Video evidence presented in a public forum by the Delhi Police on Thursday as revealed that illegal activities are still rife in the IPL and threatens to throw the future of the lucrative Twenty20 league into crisis. In a startling and first-of-its-kind press conference, Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar and DCP, Special Cell Sanjeev Yadav revealed how the authorities had tracked and uncovered a ring of illegal activity between bookies and three members of the Rajasthan Royals IPL franchise, chiefly India fast bowler Sreesanth who was arrested in Mumbai along with the lesser-known Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan today. Eleven bookies and their assistants were also arrested, said the police.
Based on a tip-off from one of their sources that major illegal activity was taking place in the IPL and generated out of the Mumbai underworld, the Delhi police tracked the movements of certain bookies for over a month and on Thursday said it had "hundreds of hours" of damning evidence.
"The investigation started after we got information that [the] Mumbai underworld was indulging in match and spot fixing," said Commissioner Kumar. "Special cell teams were present in all the matches but we cannot say with certainty that more players or teams are not involved in match or spot-fixing. Sreesanth was arrested from Carter Road, Mumbai. One of the bookies, Jiju Janardhanan, is a very close friend of Sreesanth. More arrests will take place."

The three Rajasthan Royals bowlers were allegedly given codes by bookies and asked to give pre-determined signals, according to the Delhi Police in a startling revelation.
As revealed by the police with telephonic and video evidence from live matches, the modus was that in particular the concerned cricketer was to guarantee that he would bowl a minimum number of runs in a specific over. Through a series of non-verbal cues in the form of on-field movements, such as stretching, moving of jewellery and a wrist watch or the tucking of a towel into the trousers, the cricketers would signal to the bookies that this was the over in which they would follow the agreed plan.
The three matches on which the police focused all involved Rajasthan: against Kings XI Punjab in Mohali on May 9, against Pune Warriors in Jaipur on May and against Mumbai Indians in Mumbai on May 15.
Per the evidence, in the match between Rajasthan and Pune Warriors at Jaipur on May 5, the offspinner Chandila had agreed to give away 14 runs off his bowling in one over but forgot to give the signal to the bookies. In the concerned over, Chandila began with a wide down the leg side and then, with fine leg up in the circle, drifted the second ball way down the Robin Uthappa's pads and was swept away. The third ball was on the stumps but short in length and Uthappa cut it away to the point boundary. A dot and a single followed and the last ball was full on Aaron Finch's pads. Again, with fine leg up, that was easy fodder for the batsman to sweep a boundary.
According to DCP Yadav, there had been a conversation between Chandila and a bookie by the name of Amit. "He [Chandila] was told to bowl the first over with lot of confidence and with the same confidence bowl for us in the next over. The player agreed to it. The bookie asked: 'What indication would you give?] and Chandila said 'I will lift my T-shirt before the over starts. After that I will look up and then start bowling.' Ajit forgot to give this indication," said Yadav.
As arranged, Chandila had conceded 14 runs. But according to the police, the fact that Chandila had not signaled that this was the over to bet on left the bookies incensed and a heated argument ensued between both parties after the match.
According to the police, in the match between Rajasthan and Punjab, Sreesanth had taken Rs 40 lakhs to give at least 13 runs in one over. In video footage of the match shown on a big screen to the media, the Delhi Police highlighted both of Sreesanth's overs in that May 9 match in which they identified an alleged pattern of spot-fixing.
"It was decided that Sreesanth would put a towel in his trouser before bowling the second over of his spell and also give enough time to bookies to indulge in heavy betting. As decided, Sreesanth bowled the first over without wearing the towel. In the second over he put the towel in his trousers and in order to give enough time to his bookies he did some warming-up, some stretching exercises and then went on to give 13 runs," said Commissioner Kumar to the media.
On the day, Sreesanth had bowled his first over without towel and conceded five off it. Ahead of his second over, Sreesanth had placed a towel on the right side of his body and tucked it into his trousers, followed by a brief warm-up that allegedly gave the bookies time to place big bets. In that over, he conceded 13 runs - precisely what he had been pre-arranged, as stated by Commissioner Kumar. He added, however: "We don't have any evidence that proves Sreesanth convinced Chandila and Chavan to take part in spot-fixing."
In Chavan's case, the Delhi Police singled out Rajasthan's match in Mumbai on May 15 and said the left-arm spinner had allegedly taken Rs 60 lakhs to concede at least 13 runs in his second over. After a tidy first over in which he gave just two singles, Chavan gave 15 in the next. A breakdown of that over reads: six, two, six, dot, one and dot. According to Commissioner Kumar, the advance money for this spot-fix was taken by Chandila who did not play that match; this leads the police to believe that Chandila also acted as a middle man.
Commissioner Kumar also said that no international players are involved in IPL spot-fixing and that the only franchise whose players were engaged in illegal activities was Rajasthan Royals. According to the authorities, the mastermind of this spot-fixing was based overseas but that there was no concrete evidence on the basis of which the police could name any underworld members.

"We as a team take a zero-tolerance view of the situation. The RR owners and management have made their zero-tolerance policy clear at every possible moment. I am sure they will support every action taken. For me as a captain and leader, I have to focus on ensuring the team fulfil their enormous potential and continue to play in the Rajasthan Royals way. Our players are devastated that our performances may have been affected. As they had the desire to win, and this has been evident throughout the tournament. The players, and people around the team, are hurting. I hope our fans get behind us, and we become stronger as a unit, which often happens in time of adversity. This has been a tough day for me, the team and for cricket." - Rahul Dravid

For a change, I thought the Delhi police have done a good job this time around. The police had to wait until this match for the 'act' including the 'sign' to be completed successfully.

With such below par average bowling and inconsistent batting line up, the results so far are convincing. However unlike last year or the year before, the local talents did not get properly exhibited. They should hire some good Indian bowlers. Chawla ellam sevvul-la adichu velila thallanum.

:shakinghead:

Well I tried not bothering, but couldn’t.

Question 1: If you know Cricket is as tainted as ever, why do you bother following the game. Sensible, level headed people, I think would opt for this option and spare everyone the blushes. But you have been on an agenda for the last 45 days, waiting for one-moment or the other to pounce? But, why????

If you say, you are worried about the plight of fainted hearted and deluded Indians who follow this game, let me tell you….everyone have their own priorities/medium that give them happiness and fun. People in India love following cricket and hence your ‘i-am-a-revolutionst….rrrrrr I question the status quo’ stuff is grossly unwarranted and not necessary.

Let people enjoy what they enjoy. If you are not part to it, stay away. People like Sachin and Dhoni have done more to the nation and its people than what you can even dream of and hence they deserve the rewards/adulation. Period.

If cricket is indeed proved tainted and fixed…..so what??we have had fun thus far and we will find other things to keep us engaged. Nobody can come and complain that cricket has ruined their lives and hence, you don’t need to worry. Everyone ultimately pay for what he/she is part to.


Question 2: Too obvious a statement and is applicable across any class/age/era of people. Not a key-point material this.

Everyone is greedy in one way or the other and some are exposed. Jesus did not admonish his disciples just because Judas was sinister. The other 11 did their job. Likewise, assuming that just because a handful of players have been cheating, the entire crop is bad, is…..plain stupid and immature.


Question 3: I would assume that you are referring to players like Sachin, Dhoni and Kozhi. O.k. let’s give you the benefit of doubt that you are not questioning their integrity, but because you are the ‘i-question-the-status-quo’ type, you want the gods to atleast speak out.

But why and on what basis? You want them to be held accountable just because they are big players making big bugs??

On what basis or on what account, you assume that these players indulge in such activities??

If you don’t have anything concrete, your rants just look a result of ‘sore-grapes’. Let something concrete come out, then we can make them accountable. Remember Tiger Woods????Nobody is bigger than the game.

REQUEST: Please don't use the term 'Rajasthan Cheaters'. Highly respected players such as Rahul Dravid are part of the side.

I give DAMN about what people think / receive my view point(s) !. Its my right to express and question status quo. At ANY Chance I get and in whichever way I want I will question it. If you don't like it . Don't respond , you continue your blind following of cricket. Sensible option for the country will be Corruption free Govt getting BCCI under control and Allowing cricket to flourish as JUST mere sport and nothing else. Rather than asking people to stop following cricket that's immature and kiddish.

I am not sure what so great Sachin and Dhoni Did for Mother India ?, rather representing country they received the status what they have today. So they should be thankful for people for rest of their life. Even greats like Sachin hand several bad patches with injuries and bad form one should always ask how he survived those and his fellow cricketers who also hit bad patch periodically couldn't survive. Think why Sachin was not dropped from the side even when he not performing for extended period of time , when media and critics raised the issue?.. Reason is simple people like mark mascarenhas who entered in to game of cricket with purely one intention making money. It was him who created India's first cricketing brand "Sachin- THE GOD" and many more followed, today practically its an industry inside cricket.
( Having said that I am not debating here whether he is a gift player or not , everyone know he is one of the greatest player of our times, I too agree, even he needed outside support to extend his stay in cricket )

In a cricket loving country like india many families (including mine) Spend / spent fortunes in helping their kids future , hoping / dreaming that even their child/ childern will make it big. (I am not saying everyone will succeed, including me) If the whole game is rigged to the point that it only spits (venom) money and nothing else is a sad state. Do you really think Small percentage of good young talent will get noticed and nourished ?. Big money will also make sure its agenda moves forward rather than the game itself. We are seeing this in front of our eyes.

Mark my words if IPL continues in the same fashion by IPL 8- 10 You will see more foreign players than domestic players. Just like NHL or EPL and others. Is cricket ready for this may be may be not . Is India ready to make cricket betting legal, I don't think so. Middle class families who are following these games passionately will be flatten with new gamble syndicate.

If you consider yourself as "Senior / GOD / Successful" ITS your duty to come out publicly and show your stance. These days all it takes is 140 words or less.

I was calling them : Royal Cheaters: For sake of Rahul Dravid I will call them "Royal Challengers" ;)

Seriously man !! you guys (All CSK fans) have major attitude problem. If anyone says ANYTHING negative about CSK all chennaistan people will join like perarasu movie villains.
All along you guys have used adjectives like "Killed them , etc " for RCB's defeat. Now I just called "Over rated once" this is your response (no surprise there)

for 1 last time
1) Yes CSK won that match because of RP Singh's No Ball.

2) CSK won 70% of its games this season, because of its batting not bowling. On paper CSK is Champion of Champions etc .
pick them apart like today, you will see their batting is the stronger asset and bowling attack not so much , hence its overrated.


I know I know you guys will discount it by saying things like just 8 overs, rained a lot , bangalore was little cold for hot chennaistan players so on.. All said and done
it was solid aapu for champion of champions before they could start the quest for winning IPL Cup.


I completely forgot an important person @ LM CSK :rotfl: :rotfl3:

[Dilbert]

even if news comes out tomorrow that match was fixed and CSK and mama did it. I will continue to love CSK and MAMA for giving us this day, which was completely dull until Kohli brand fireworks lit up the bangalore night skies.

:thank you CSK:

Err :confused2: Guess you are not following these threads properly. I'm not a CSK supporter.

I know I know !! YET you always promptly showed up when RCB lost a game with one of these " :rotfl: "


Who knows whether RCB will even play better cricket next season or not !! So rubbing the salt , when we can that's all !!

[littlemaster1982]

Oh yeah, I hate RCB. How could that be taken as supporting CSK :roll: You really have some weird logic. I'm waiting to rub salt, pepper and chilli powder on RCB after they get knocked out today 8-)

They are already out ! its only some csk (singara chennai) cricket fans trying to create buzz of something about to happen. I told they will not make it playoff when they had 6 more games in Hand. And I also said RR and MI will make it to playoffs when each had 8 more games to go.

Go figure , who is just hoping manja bags will do good because of golden hearts and srini mama ! and who was spot on as far as cricket it concerned.

Its only Chilly fellows trying to decypher ipl warm hole !! I am more than contended with RCB's performance , especially with halal meat kohli briyani dinner y'day.. What a finish
Whataa finish yaa!!

oh by the way we don't need sherlock homes to discover chennaistan people will always support CSK , when it comes to RCB Vs CSK. So you are not exception and I don't believe ONE BIT ;)

SaYing in public that our favourite team will crash out and then praying for them to qualify is a nothing new. If SRH loses today, we will see the same person coming here and challenge CSK for the playoffs. If SRH win, they still will claim 'Naangathaan appove sonnomla. Engalukku CSKva win pannadhe IPL win panna maadhiri'. Havent we seen that for the last 6 IPL seasons? :)

Yesterday's match was well summed up through a story in FB by a friend. Lion chased a hare. Hare won the race and smiled at lion. Lion calmly replied, 'You ran for life and I ran for snack'.

For RCB, this is their first win against CSK in the last 2 years. And the previous year, we met them in the final and you know what their famed bowling/batting attacks managed to do. Funny to attribute wins to no balls. If you have a bowler who cant watch his step at the most crucial moment of the match, you deserve to come second.

I sincerely pray RCB to enter the playoffs. :)

:notthatway: but you guys can continue praying ! if RCB enters playoffs , at the cost of SRH that will be really sad thing period. You guys don't want to believe me so be it :).

tomorrow I have a long day ahead ! pl do PM me :) if you guys see the hint of weather changing .. I will appreciate it a lot.

Nice storye ajay !! Hares & Lions :lol: aapu mattum solid bamboo style :thumbsup:

8 overs = 100 + runs , CSK had absolutely.. no answer.

[HonestRaj]

I sincerely pray RCB to enter the playoffs. :)

yes.. else RCB fans will say.. if we had been there instead of SRH.. we would have shown who the real champion is.. & what is mean by Gayle storm.. etc. etc.

oh btw between RCB and SRH at this stage , SRH did play much better cricket than Royal Cozy Boys , They deserve a place in playoffs..

Sportsmanship at its very best. Kudos.

But wait!!!......While the acknowledgement that SRH has played better cricket than RCB and hence they deserve a place in the final play off's sounds like a great judgment, the performance of the most consistent team in IPL over the yeas has been attributed/ridiculed to Kaptan Thony's fixing, Srini Mama's archana, Chennaistan's monopoly, CSK fans' attitude and more importantly luck. Is this mere pendulum swing or hypocrisy, you would never know.

Even more startling is the fact that the judgment also includes calling the game itself fixed and not worthy of the attention it deserves from the faint hearted Indians. The sensitive/faint-hearted Indians have been advised to stop their worship of their gods including Sagin Tendulkar. But even if the match yesterday was fixed as per the judge's own admission, the GLEE doesn't seem to stop from their faces. Even if this could be attributed to plain/stupid fanatism, still they want a 'more deserving' SRH to qualify to the playoffs. Standing Ovation, Please!

[ajaybaskar]

And Virat Kohli, what a man!!! He fought with Gambhir with all his tails up only few days back and now pammufying, 'Tomorrow morning I will call Gambhir and ask him to win against SRH'. Indha pozhappukku.. :lol2:

[ajaybaskar]

Cedy,

Cant expect someone to logically reply to your post.. :)

I want RCB lose. Doesn't matter if the oppenent is Chennaistan or Kazakhstan.

[ajaybaskar]

Masterji,

Ungalukkullayum oru terrorist'ah? anyways, I am ok with it. Edhirikku edhiri...

[hamid]

Ajay,

namakku adutha match MI-yoda.. maranthudathiing :lol:

y'day's macth.. RCB did well and Kohli was brilliant...there is no denying that.. they deserved the win .. I want SRH to come into playoffs..if that happens..:boo: wanted RCB and KKR not to enter playoffs..but never thought that will happen..

CSK didnt show much intent to win y'day..rather I felt they are taking it as a practice match.. like giving death bowlng to Mohit, batting for bravo, opening bowling by Ashwin etc...

What crap is that!! when did I say anything about CSK's past seasons? So me 1 post . This is how you guys confuse a conversation , which you can't defend. So that after 3 pages it will look as if I was questioning the whole CSK history and geography etc etc..(ajay tried this once and now you)

Let us try this one more time.
1) Every single post I posted so far in this thread was related to CSK's current season and nothing else (ofcourse I hate them period )
2) I started including srini mama's name after spot fixing controversy (which is logical) Comeon you guys still believe only 3 bad apples exists?
3)As Far as Sagin and Thony are being excluded from spot / match / blouse fixing and controversial topics, I still attribute that to sensitive faint-hearted Indians.

Now how on earth these points gets linked to SRH making it playoffs or their performance?

Ok yeah GLEE moment was like a lottery ticket on a dull day for RCB Fans @ CSK :rotfl3: Thopi Thopi !! Kaptan Thony was hoping badava RP will bowl the last over with another no ball :lol2: so that he could tweet about his and Sir's accomplishment.
