Pollards' wretched form continues
In reply to DIEHARD
Come on brother... That's harsh, happens to everyone
He is playing a good knock

CricInfo:
17.3 Dinda to Pollard, no run, dropped. yorker-length delivery outside off, Pollard looks to squeeze this behind point but gets a healthy edge through to Dhoni who fluffs a low chance to his right.
It's Pollard's day.
In reply to thefacts
I was thinking maybe its the kinda luck he needs to get out of this slump.
I would love to see him find some form.
Seeing a WI cricketer continuously fail gives me little joy
In reply to DIEHARD
You guys dirty
wow! 30 runs (20 ov)
In reply to DIEHARD
Pollard the great cricketer
In terms of Mumbai's firepower at the end of the innings:
Here's Kieron Pollard. Over the last two years, he scores at 10.51 per over in the last five overs when Mumbai bat first in the IPL. When they chase, it's 12.57.

First, before we criticize think of what the coach wants Polly to do !!!
Stokes to Pollard, OUT, stunner from Mayank at long-on. Flat hit that was dying on him but he did well to attack the ball and put in an instinctive dive to pluck that inches from the ground. Lets out an expletive which I can't type here. Stokes, Dhoni run up to congratulate their mate. Pollard was struggling to time the ball since being hit on the elbow
In reply to Discourse
By the laws of the game, he was out man
Hoping he'll have a good IPL regardless, regain some confidence.
I still have hopes of the IPL-ers contributing to WI cricket
Pollard has become a pinch hitter, 3-4 overs is good enough for him these days.
Steve Smith is a class act, our youngsters can learn a lot about batsmanship from him

shock
In reply to DIEHARD
Smith took him to the cleaners.
y on earth is his bowling in the 20th over?
In reply to navindesigns
He's done so successfully before.
In reply to navindesigns
Not much choice. It was either Polly or a spinner.

19.5
Pollard to Smith, SIX, and that is the game. Full, on middle, Smith walks across and flicks it over midwicket. Times it superbly and the ball carries the distance
Fine leg and third man inside the circle.
19.4
Pollard to Smith, SIX, is that the game! Smith launches one into the long-on stands and it is a humongous hit. Back of a length, outside off. It was a slower ball and took some serious hitting from Smith who clobbers it
19.3
Pollard to Dhoni, 1 run, length ball, Dhoni cannot time this pull shot and the ball is fielded at the deep
19.2
Pollard to Smith, 1 run, Smith walks across towards off. Pollard bowls it full and Smith whips it away to deep backward square leg where Vinay Kumar tidies up
19.1
Pollard to Dhoni, 1 run, shortish, Dhoni tries to pull and drags it straight down the ground as the ball crashes into the stumps at the non-striker's end
Thirteen needed off the last over. Pollard to bowl

It wasn't looking like such a bad idea...until the 2nd six.
It was a gamble
In reply to Discourse
It has worked before.
I'm pretty sure i've seen Polly defend 12 in a final over already at the IPL..but he wasnt bowling to Steve Smith
In reply to DIEHARD
Polly would be the first to agree with you
In reply to imusic
Against Smith?
In reply to Kay
Not unless Smith play in the CPL
