I am reading all of fundmark's posts in an Indian accent. It's rather comical...

Sorry I'm late to the party...did you figure it out?
The scoreboard has two numbers..the number of runs and the number of wickets(outs).Chennai were 153-4.

It's a 20 over game, each over is 6 balls(pitches).
So simply put, you have a team of 11 players who bat in pairs, when a batter gets out he's gone and replaced by a another one. One team bats first,makes as many runs as possible off 120 pitches or 10 outs whichever happens first. Then the other team chases the total down. Hard to tell who is dominating. A wicket can change everything.

The statistics would be easier to follow if they showed the scoreboards more than 2 seconds at a time.

I'm guessing 112 is a pretty low score, however.

Scoreboard is always at the bottom.

Eg. 96-3 11.3 overs
Means 96 runs have been scored in 11.3 over at a loss of 3 wickets. You don't need the whole scorecard, which shows you what batsmen scored what.

112 is ver low for T20.

Punjab needs to start getting batters out, or they are in big trouble, I think.

Yup Pune won easily.

It's all about pacing. There are 20 overs, how do you want to play them?
Do you want to go fast at the start, hit 4s and 6s but risk losing wickets? Or go slow, keep the number of wickets low so that in the last 5-7 you can go for broke because you've got "wickets in hand".

Teams have to be very careful, when a wicket falls, a batter comes in cold off the bench and is vulnerable. It's not uncommon to see consecutive wickets fall and turn the match around.

Cricket in HD is just awesome!!! Watching the performance Mumbai, I think they could be the favs for IPL champs. Malinga at 5-13 is scary, and bhaji's spin and sachin's mind and talent....Mumbai is the class...it is and EARLY take, but go Indians!!!

I just need to figure out the scoring now. When the ball is hit over the large fence it is 6 right? And if it rolls out over the small fence it is 4? Then if they hit any where else it all depends how fast they run between the wickets. Each time they run to the other wicket is 1 right? And does it only count if both batters make it or is it only the guy who is hitting

Right on 6s, 4s, 1s.

Both guys need to make it to the opposite end for the runs to count (if one doesn't its a runout and no runs are given). Make sense?

Yes thanks. So there is an ump at both wickets and when the keeper or who ever is the relay to the wickets knocks them down the umps at both end determine if the batsman is back in the box in time
