Can't see why Stoinis is not in this Punjab squad.

Despite the loss, Bangalore's second string side threw up some interesting potential inclusions for next game. With this in mind I would go for:

Rahul
Kohli
ABDV
Watson
Head
Sarfaraz
Bunny
Patel
Chahal
Abdulla
Richardson

Pollard 39 not out from just 19 balls...not bad.
:clap
Bad news for Badree....

http://www.espncricinfo.com/indian-prem ... 01385.html

"Badree, the West Indies and Royal Challengers Bangalore legspinner, has been ruled out of IPL 2016. Badree had injured himself during the World T20 final on April 3 and has not played a game since then. He will be replaced by chinaman bowler Tabraiz Shamsi, who plays for South African franchise Titans."

I suspected as much, when I saw him take a tumble towards the end of the final....

Wonder how long Bangalore's policy of bringing in lucrative foreign batsmen and bowling with local Indian lads will be fruitful.

Mustafizur is a real class act....does anyone see the similarities between him and Sydney Barnes?

RCB way too top heavy to ever win the IPL imo. Their bowling attack looks poor.

Virat is an all time great limited overs and he's got so much time left. He does it all without hitting sixes.

Whilst Rahane is undoubtably a good batsmen; I would argue he is not made for T20. To take 16 overs to get to 50 and therefore hamper his team is not what you're looking for.

Things have got to be bad if you make Parthiv look good. Nothing working for Punjab.

Jordan's Sussex head coach, Mark Davies, thinks that not playing for RCB is a great opportunity for the lad, that he needs to grab with both hands

Hey... RCB might surprise me and give him the odd sympathy game somewhere down the line
