Rajasthan Royals REPRESENT BRAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH.

I'm from Jaipur yeyeyeyeyeye.

Pisses me off how many people go gloryhunting go though, like I'm Sindhi, not even Rajasthani, and technically speaking my ancestors are all from modern-day Sindh in ****ing Pakistan. And yet, I still support Rajasthan to the core despite the failures in the last two seasons. Compare that to Rajasthanis/Marwaris I know who have gone off supporting Chennai. Wtf!


Not too many people care. They support the teams with the players they like. I am supporting RCB for the team, not 'cos I'm from Bangalore. I'm not going to support KVIP (who are arguably the weakest side in the IPL) just 'cos I'm Punjabi.

Personally, I'm supporting my favourite players, making me support almost every single team :tongue:

Yup, I know. I hate how they've fully mixed up the teams. I am like obsessive with cricket, and I can just about remember the rough new squads for the teams. LOL, don't mind the Aussies too much but really glad there aren't any Pakistanis (considering they keep going on about how crap IPL is and how they want nothing to do with it :biggrin: )

Shane Watson, wow, Rajasthan must be dying for him to come to India :tongue:


I dont remember them either...its hard when u have transfers of this magnitude! I dont actually hate them but dint like their reaction to being banned :angry:

damn I jus looked at it now...sounds like rapage

I support Kings XI Punjab and Delhi Daredevils though I know they are not gonna win this year because of their team this year.
But I think it could be Chennai Superkings or mumbai indians winning this year.

Same here and I dont even know how or why I started watching it! Never liked it before and no one really got me into it but my family were kinda hyped about the Pak and England games.

They're like Lagaan to the core...no team spirit, form or tactics at the start of most tournaments.

Yeah I was surprised by that game as well...at the end I dint know whether to be happy or sad but I guess I was more happy. It was great that they crashed out...now that I think of it Im not sure we could beat them if it was a final. They mite be nervous but that doesnt mean their bowlers arent quick :wink:

Afridi played well though...I hate his batting but he's a champ when it comes to limited overs bowling


LOL, I fully LOVE Lagaan :biggrin:

Afridi is a legend atm, but it makes me laugh when he apologizes to Pakistan, that was enough to make me crack up for like an hour :tongue:

Not only him, I think Shoaib Malik had a habit of doing that aswell. Ha!

Same, no idea of what emotions I felt. Gutted that we couldn't have pulled it back. Happy that it wasn't an outright defeat :smile:

OOOOH Gul's over that Sehwag smashed for 21/22 runs (can't remember exactly :colondollar: )
you guys know alot bout cricket, i just watch it cose i support india lol now i wna see all the stats :frown:
