Hello and welcome to all the readers

Day 17 of the IPL 2021. Today we had 2 matches

  • Match 19 - Chennai Super Kings [CSK] v/s Royal Challengers Bangalore [RCB] in mumbai
  • Match 20 - Sunrisers Hyderabad [SRH] v/s Delhi Capitals [DC] in chennai

Match 19 [ CSK v/s RCB] - Statistics and Analysis:

CSK won the toss and elected to bat

CSK started well. A good first wicket partnership of 74 runs in 9.1 overs. CSK had good partnerships and finally scored 191/4 in 20 overs
The main highlight was a 37 run last over courtesy of Ravindra Jadeja, unbeaten on 62 runs. Jadeja was dropped when he was on zero, which costed RCB dearly.

In reply, RCB started well and were 52/2 in first five overs. After that everything went downhill. RCB lost wickets at regular intervals. RCB managed only 122/9 in 20 overs.

CSK won the match by 69 runs

Player of the match - Ravindra Jadeja [CSK]

RCB dropped too many catches. Bowling was good until the last over which went for 37 runs allowing CSK to post a good total.
RCB batting collapse in pressure. Today the star players did not bat well. RCB need to find a balance in their middle order.

CSK batted and bowled well. But the star was Ravindra Jadeja who batted brilliantly at the end, bowled well and also played part in a run-out.
Overall as a team, CSK is improving after every game

Match 20 [SRH v/s DC] - Statistics and Analysis:

DC won the toss and elected to bat

DC scored 159/4 in 20 overs. Which included a good first wicket partnership of 81 runs.

In reply, SRH start was not bad. Lost first wicket to a crucial run-out. SRH lost wickets at intervals. Kane Williamson who scored 66 not out, did not get support from the middle order, wickets kept falling.
But, in the last over, SRH manage to tie the score to 159/7

Then, we had a super over, 1 over per team.
SRH batted first and scored only 8 runs. 1 run was deducted as batsman did not complete a run properly.

Needed 8 runs to win, DC managed to scored the final run on the last ball and win the match

DC won the match by super over

Player of the match - Prithvi Shaw [DC]

The batting woes of SRH continues. SRH captain, David Warner is also not performing. The only batsman who played well and sensibly was Kane Williamson.
Middle order did not play sensibly.
