>>>>>If Sanath continues to score at this rate, it will be easy to forget his performance in 1996 WC.  Mumbai's momentum came from performances in the second half of the tournament and a lot of credit should go to Pollock for keeping the team afloat. Sachin looks a little slow at the moment. He was beaten in the air by Ojha and was miles out of his crease, but Gilchrist missed an easy chance, last Sunday.   Until Bravo partnered with Nair, the game was slightly in favour of Deccan. 

Looks like the semi finalists will be Rajasthan,Punjab, Chennai and Mumbai.

Side Notes:

RP Singh and Zaheer are among the top 5 wicket takers in this tournament......how would one relate that to their team performances?

Same case with Rohit and Gilchrist's performances. I was told that Rohit was not picked up by Mumbai......wonder why.

A commentator attributed Punjab's performance to the colour of their clothing.......a weird reasoning.

Glad to see stadiums with full of fans. Newsreports indicated the popularity of all-you-can-eat places in the stadiums.....nice idea!

Its terrible to note the applicability of D/L rule [after just 5 overs] in this format. Delhi were certainly robbed of one victory.

Shane Warne has been the best Captain on show. No wonder players like Watson and YK Pathan are flowering under his tutelage.
