Match 9 || The Champions vs The Cosmos || M.A. CHIDAMBARAM STADIUM

Teams
The Champions: Right at the bottom of the table and need a win desperately. Their new recruit Yasin is looking to add some momentum to the team as he has been practicing really hard.

The Cosmos: Right at the top. They have been a pretty strong team but a few mistakes here and there have proved costly for them. Still they are a very strong unit and will look to win tomorrow.


Players to watch out for


GILLY: He owes a big innings to his team members. But he is yet to deliver due to him being pushed too down the order.


WATSON: Suited for T20 version, he is magical with both bat and ball.

Finalised Team for the game against Team Cosmos.

Note:Fardin Kibria is rested for this game as he decided by himself for his bad performence in last two matches.Yasin Iqbal is included in the team with +77 batting skills with Zayen who performed good in last match. Kevin O'Brian is back and Ramnaresh Sarwan is left out.

It's a must win game for "The Champions"

Best of Luck to both the teams........

YES YASIN

Champions Analysis:
As usual the line up always seems to be strong but they have been unable to perform.Gilchrist and Strauss if they give a good start then Ross Taylor and Kallis can really take the innings together very well. And then Kevin O Brien has got some great finishing skills. But Kallis should have been No.3 Coz he builds innings well and fast as Taylor can be usefull as a good finisher. In Bowling Champions have got Indo-Pak's current best pacers and hope so They bowl well. If Zaheer does a good job with the new ball then Gul will find it easy with the old ball. Both of the players will be supported By Mendis and Hossain, there support means alot for them and Kallis has always been usefull

Cosmos Analysis:
Surprising Morgan , sent early, Well Virender Sehwag expected to score fast on this track, but maybe Watson could have been the best choice to open , but yeah Morgan he has got some great skills to. Eyes on Afridi and Watson, both included as finishers , lets see how they play. Watson has been looking good but yet Afridi is yet to show his talent. Really strong bowling line-up and a perfect combination. Afridi, Steyn and Malinga expected to attack as Vettori and Anderson expected to stop the flow of runs. Lets see if it works out as before.

Naqi you have made a mistake buddy,it's Cosmos not titan.

Wishing Both Teams Good Luck

Thanks Naqi,and I bought down kallis at 4 because taylor did well in 3rd last time so didn't want to move him from his spot:P

Every1 has got his style of choosing team, So i dont say ur idea is bad and i wish u best of luck again
Coz this time i m supporting Champions

Thanks for the support,thank you again.We will try our best get supporters and not let them down:)

According to me 1 of the best situations
Champions need to win as it is a do or die match for them to be alive in this tournament
and Cosmos need to win coz they wanna make it to the top 2 of the standings

Will Be Fun

Yup!!But it's a more important match for Champions then it is for Cosmos.

Am supporting the Champions tomorrow

Hope everyone knows about this.......................
