IPL 2012: Pune Warriors India emerging as the new Champion
Tomorrow on 27th April we will be on the midway
of the tournament as the match between Mumbai Indian and Delhi Daredevils
played at Firoz Shah Kotla will be the 36th match of IPL 2012.
If we look at the point table today certainly we will
conclude that things are not progressing as was expected at the start of
tournament, surely this was rain last night at Bengaluru which forced CSK and
RCB to hold third and fourth position on the point table.
Considering the past performance
Delhi Daredevils are appear to have a dream run this year but for the most of
followers of the game progress of Pune Warriors India and Rajasthan Royals is a
surprise element of this year’s cricket carnival as at the start both were
rated even below the Kings IX Punjab, though this is yet another thing that
even before the start of tournament I was sure that PWI and RR are going to
make a place in final four.
I was sure just because Dada has
to prove his inspiring leadership once again and Rahul has to prove a point
that though 20-20 is game of physical powers but still this can be won on sheer
talent and class.
In today’s position PWI and RR
need to won just four more matches out of remaining eight. PWI has to play 2
games each against DC, KKR, RR and one each against MI and RCB. If we consider
the last match between the PWI and RCB, this doesn’t happen so frequently that
over 20 runs are scored in the last over of the match this fact might prove a
point of inspiration for PWI when they play reverse game against RCB at home
ground on the 11th May where as defending a paltry 129 against MI in
the very first match of tournament they played is bound to boost the moral of
player when they play against the MI on 3rd May at home.
PWI need to won just one from
these two and one each against the DC, KKR and RR to take their point tally to
16 considering the present situations this appears that 16 points will be more
than enough for any team to qualify for the final four.
My Final four with probable % of
winning IPL 2012 are
Pune Warriors India
[35%]
Rajasthan Royals [30%]
Mumbai Indian [20%]
