Its Sourav vs Sachin (for the first time in a big game ???)...
The world best ODI opening partners going against each other..though Sourav scores higher when it comes to Captaincy over Sachin.
Also interesting to watch the revival of Shoaib Akhtar vs Sachin Tendulkar battle.
Sachin shouldnt repeat the mistake Rahul Dravid did..get into a shell of playing too consciously in T20..instead go out there, play bindaas, play your natural game & just enjoy it. Playing cautiously will only turn into a debacle like it did for Dravid & laxman (initially)..& also the likes of Ponting, Lara (in ICL), Chanderpaul, Kallis.
my support : Mumbai Indians
Mumbai Indians (probable): 1 Sanath Jayasuriya, 2 Sachin Tendulkar (capt), 3 Robin Uthappa, 4 Dominic Thornely, 5 Dwayne Bravo, 6 Shaun Pollock, 7 Abhishek Nayar, 8 Yogesh Takawale (wk), 9 Dhawal Kulkarni, 10 Rohan Raje, 11 Ashish Nehra.
I think Mumbai should play... Ashwell Prince or Loots Bosman (allrounder) instead of Thornely. Thornely hasnt been impressive.
Kolkata Knight Riders (probable): 1 Salman Butt, 2 Aakash Chopra, 3 1 Sourav Ganguly (capt), 4 David Hussey, 5 Mohammad Hafeez, 6 Laxmi Ratan Shukla, 7 Wriddhiman Saha (wk), 8 Shoaib Akhtar, 9 Ishant Sharma 10 Murali Kartik 11 Ashok Dinda.
Pollock is amazing... great bowling by whole team.. & some awesome fielding & field placements by Capt.Sachin.
Will Jayasuriya- Sachin finish this match in 4 overs...lets wait & watch.
I think Ganguly wins this one. He scored 15 in 20 balls. Sachin scores a Zero in 3 balls. So you got it the story of the Indian geezers.
Sachin lost the battle vs Shoaib though....
