Murali plays flute, Chennai dances

Murali shows another brilliance of spin. He hacks 3 important data types belonging to a team of IT hub....Former captain Rahul again plays a wall but the other pillars are missing from the surface. The wall too has formed a debris against Chennai super Kings and Royal Challengers mark their first loss in IPL season2. Chasing a tough target of 180 was almost a dream for Bangalore after Pieterson was wrongly given out.....Hayden had shown an international level of cricket with an amazing 65 runs inning for Chennai earlier. For Bangalore Kallis tried some hooks but could not last long against Dhoni's guys....

Bet market was on an equal ratio...perhaps with Bangalore's first win and expectations from Chennai's strong batting line.....Hey, I won another bet and am running positive as of now....

Kingfisher chief Dr.Vijay Mallaya with Kingfisher Air hostess

So Mr. Malya Ji, what to do if the horse is running with bad luck but still wants to run in a race.....At all you seem quite unfortunate in sports....F1 and then IPL make you a poor player in field...But still you are my icon coz both your businesses make people fly, Kingfisher flights with spicy air hostesses and the Kingfisher chilled beer with spicy hot chicks......oops I meant hot chips.........

Funny moments with betting

Bets also traverse through some fun, some masala and some hotch-potch. Don't you believe that? Let me tell you about such few commotions:

We had a bet term as : Which team will win toss and chose what (batting/fielding)
Then a guy needed an elucidation - "Shall we know about weather condition, pitch reports etc prior to put bet on?"

I am still curious to know how he could determine which team gonna win toss based on weather condition and pitch reports....

Another bet was "Which team will lose the match". Most people in our bet bazar didn't read it correctly and put bet on the team they supported. I was one of them and was very happy when the team I supported won the match(Delhi Daredevils)..After the cool weekend on a sunny Monday, I was stormed to know the actual bet and so were some other guys.....

Anyways such incidents make us savor the time and keep people chilled even at the time of a bet loss....

Meanwhile in current match Chennai has set 180 target for Bnagalore. I have put my bet on Chennai. The bet market is 9:9.....Kallis and Uthappa are blasting Chennai bowlers and are at 40/1....Oh Kallis is gone so it's 40/2 now...

Lot more to come at fun time.....till then happy betting...

Knights are discharged

Deccan Chargers discharged the Kolkata Knight Riders...So badly that they would have felt it a dark night. Mccullam couldn't create the same magic as he did in IPL1. Dada struggled a lot to score a debut run in 2 overs. RP Singh slammed Riders with his 4 wicket haul.

And then who could stop Gibbs and Rohit Sharma to get Deccan chargers a tremendous win?

Even the bet favoured Deccan Chargers....May be Kolkata needs some more energy drinks to recover Shoaib Akhtar's kind of pace...











And Shahrukh, you too join the same league now with Preity Zinta.....At all it's sports and

"हार जीत तो लगी ही रहती है....और हारी बाजी जीतने वाले को ही तो बाजीगर कहते हैं...वैसे भी ....शाहरुख़, पिक्चर अभी बाकी है मेरे दोस्त!!!!!!!!"

Vettori and Rain dare the devils

Not a very usual sight in cricket......20 overs match reducing to just 6. Again a spinner shows the magic. Goel with some nice hits gave a good start to Kings XI. Yuvi too showed some master sixes but the team couldn't do great against Vettori's spinning performance. Rain didn't favour Kings and the target reducing to 60 in 6 overs was an opportunity knock at Devil's door. Sehwag could do so even in test match....He did it with 7 balls remaining with a huge hit to carve the finish.
Our bet market was already supporting Dare Devils with a 9:5 against Kings. I too had betted for devils and won my first Premium bet of the tournament.

So dear Preity, what are you thinking now? At least with a Bombay dying you could have put a dye to dry out the wet innings of Kings XI. Better luck next time and have a good sleep......

And the Challengers thrash the Royals

And the Challengers thrash the Royals......Very unconventional to the IPL1. Bangalore Royal Challengers have won the second match of IPL2. No doubt, credit goes to Kumble and Dravid. A magnificent finsih by Kumble gave Rajasthan Royals a worst nightmare. What an amazing spell he bowled. 5 runs for 5 wickets in 20-20....Really rarest of the rare performance in 20 over cricket. Dravid had given a beautiful hook with his howly innining of 66 runs.........Wake up Rajasthan Royals!!!
Anyways the bet was in favour of RCB with 7:5 against RR. The reason might have been inclusion of Pieterson...whatever, a first day finished with 2 good matches. Shane Warne must be watching Dravid's huge six in his dreams......good Night!!!!!!

Mumbai Indians set a road map

Sachin Tendulkar proved his being one of the top batsmen of all times and has set the roadmap for Mumbai Indians in IPL season 2. A 19 run win in the first match has made Mumbai Indians the team to win first match of tournament. A not out performance by Tendulkar and a thrilling and paced inning by Abhishek Nayar set the mood of the game.
Inspite of Hayden's good knock Chennai Super Kings couldn't save their crown. I always doubt the play of Joginder Sharma and again he proved it at the end.
Whatever heck it might e....I just lost my first bet of IPL....
Even though the bet market was favoring CSK as I did with 10:8 against MI, but that's what betting is for.
Let's focus on what comes and believe my luck more than the analysis I tried to do for betting.....Happy betting!!!!

Betting the first match

Still 40 minutes to go.....Hope to have a tough match between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians.......The bet is simple...Who will win this match?
I've just 10 minutes to analyze and bet on a team as the rules say..I can bet only half an hour before the match starts.....Should Sachin and Jayasurya make the first win of IPL or Dhoni and his boys taste the victory?
I love Sachin and appeciate Jayasurya's batting...but still I feel Dhoni is the best captain and has given India a tremendous wins over last couple of years.......confused a lot...

Meanwhile This time on Fourth Umpire Gaurav(Challel-V VJ) is involved heart throb Mandira. Mandira is not clad in Sari this time but something just to cover her parts.....leave it to her and focus on my betting......

OK done, I've decided to go for Dhoni and his team.....En Rascala, mind it...
