  2. DD, RR and RC will get stronger and will be in Semis for sure.

    RR has the best team spirit and they believe in themselves … that’s why they are winning.

    But RC is the team to watch…
    Go RC go ….

  3. i think rajasthan royals has benifitted the most because of lalit modi & that’s why they have got most things sorted out( inside informations coming beforehand). I believe delhi daredevils will rue not signing some big hitters in their later order. signing Daniel Vettori was a complete waste

  4. My analysis:

    RCB: Bowling attack looks good now with Steyn , ZK and Pravin K. Will miss Taylor and Chanderpaul as already short of firepower.

    CSK: Will sorely miss batting of Hussey and Hayden. Batting responsibility will shift on Patel, Dhoni, Raina and Badrinath. Bowling department will be strengthened by Ntini and Morkel.

    DD: Not much difference. Existing players are performing.

    DC: One aggressive player gone (Symmo), one in (Gibbs). No difference.

    RR: Complete Strengthening of already emerging fine team. All incoming players (Smith, Y.Khan, Tanvir, Mascerenhas) are exciting.

    KKR: Will be hit by Gayle and McCullum leaving. Butt will fill in as opener. Good thing Ponting is going. He was not playing not were they affording keeping him out.

    KXI: Will miss Lee, and Katich who was MoM in last game.

    MI: Not that it matters, no one seems to be playing for them. However, exit of allrounder Dwayne Bravo will hit their team composition.

  7. .MOST AFFECTED IS CHENNAI SUPER KING. MOST BENIFITED IS RAJASTHAN ROYAN.HENCE THE PRESENT VICTORY TREND MAY CHANGE. CHENNAI SUPER KING SHOULD MAKE GOOD BATTING ORDER OTHER WISE THEIR PRESENT POSITION CAN NOT BE RETAINED
