90 off of 42 balls now.

8 fours & 8 sixes.

Gayle now has hit the most sixes out of anyone in the tournament, despite missing the first 3 or 4 games.

You Need a Thneed · 05-06-2011, 09:34 AM

97 off of 44 balls.

103 off of 46 balls

First batsman to score two centuries in IPL history.

I thought each batsmen only got 6 bowls in an over?

You Need a Thneed · 05-06-2011, 09:41 AM

finally out 107 in 49 balls.

apparently they can't bat either. Down 6 wickets in 9 overs, for only 58 runs.

That's a bit different. If you're chasing a big total it's Go Big or Go Home. No point milking it for a decent total.

You Need a Thneed · 05-06-2011, 11:51 AM

and RCB wins by 85 runs. Just missed out on winning by 100 runs, as Kings XI scored 15 in the last over.

so does a batsman keep hitting until he gets an out? I am confused on how the hitting works

There are two batsman at a time, and they each bat until they are out.

You Need a Thneed · 05-06-2011, 12:08 PM

Each over is 6 balls, all must be bowled by the same bowler, from the same end of the field. If a batter scores an even number of runs in one ball, he will face the next bowl thrown. If he scores an odd number of runs, the other batsman will face the next ball.

At the end of an over, the next over will be bowled from the other end, so a batter scoring an odd number of runs in the last ball of one over will face the first ball of the next over. If an even number of runs are scored in the last ball, then the other batsman will face the first ball of the next over.

GirlySports · 05-06-2011, 02:12 PM

Also a bowler can only bowl a maximum of 4 overs in a T20 game and he cannot bowl in consecutive overs.

Cheerleader controversy!

RCb playing again today. In their last match, Gayle had an over of 37 (!) runs. 4 sixes & 3 fours, with a 1 run penalty for the bowler stepping over the line. RCB was halfway done their chase after 3 overs in that one.

You Need a Thneed · 05-11-2011, 11:36 AM

RCB wins its sixth match in a row. Unbeaten since the arrival of Chris Gayle. Only 70 for him today, off of 44 balls, not out.

fundmark19 · 05-11-2011, 02:46 PM

So one guy can really make a huge difference for a team it seems. To bad Chris Gayle is no match for the Super kings!

GirlySports · 05-17-2011, 08:40 AM

big match starting now..

Bangalore, going for 8 straight wins and a spot in the 1-2 game, are in Punjab who need a win to stay in the playoff hunt.
