I don’t believe this title.
Or even agree with it.
Right now it is making me laugh, so I couldn’t help myself.
When the IPL teams lost to South African and Australian teams i thought it was fair enough, they are quality teams.
But this was SOMERSET.
I thought they were the worst side in this competition, and they just beat the Deccan Chargers, winners of the last IPL.
Deccan has their own song, Somerset is sponsored by eggs.
Do you see the difference.
This is an amazing result.
If these were normal Indian clubs from the Ranji trophy it wouldn’t be that funny.
But these are fake plastic teams owned by magnates and collective wankers with big troughs of cash to dip into at any time, so the schadenfreude is monstrous.
Right now I demand that the Lalit Modi poll be re-taken, surely 82fucken% of people don’t think he is the saviour of shit right now.
Maybe Twenty20 will save cricket.
One IPL loss at a time.
Dine out on this cricket lovers, as, sadly, the IPL teams will win games, but not as many as they thought.
Is it too late to replace these teams with a Ranji team, just so Indians can save face…
Or should we start to bag the underperforming international players, their money grubbing nature is ruining the young pure cricket players of India.
Either way, I am still laughing.
Eggs.






True story when I was watching the closing overs of the match I kept cheering for batsman MJ Baker to hit a six and win it for Somerset.
Eggs? Surely a caviar moment right now – just loving it!
I’m only paying any attention to this thang cos its got the ‘Tresco soap opera’ squad in it.
Viva the real Teams!!!
Indians? Are there any Indians in IPL teams.
It’s a win for the little man. These cricketers who think they can just stroll in, after no game practice for months, like Symonds and Gilchrist, are up against the “professionals” now.
I will never stop loving the fact that somerset are sponsored by eggs.
So are they just Somerset or like the Somerset Sizzlers?
Or the Somerset Surprisers?
I may be a bit late on the egg gags, but does the sponsor deliver eggshells to the club for them to walk on when Tresco is around?
Can India win T20 world cup 2010 ?
IPL is boring not to show live matches from 2010 ban IPL.
To BCCI just show live telecast Ranji Trophy ( 4 day & One Day Matches)
Modi doesn’t lose either way. These results can help him enhance credibility for his tournaments – that he doesn’t fix em. An all ipl win so far would have raised a “oh its evil and boring” , and “evil modi is fixing it in favour of ipl teams” from western press and bloggers
Hope its true bro – we need just a few more debacles by the Indian team and this moronic format will die a natural market-economic death. As for the dim-wits who support this burlesque, let them savour it on their playstations or mobiles or whatever.
Laugh it up, NSW are sponsored by speeding
Moses, no, they are sponsored by a speedblitz, don’t try and make it sound less shit.
I am glad that the RTA are getting international exposure here, I wonder if my tax dollars will translate into a reduction in the Indian road toll..
Delhi Daredevils are the best IPL team. Deccan won IPL title due to a fluke Gilchrist onslaught. I would have been worried if Delhi had lost to Somerset
@hi , I’m not convinced that. Gilly smashing the opposition counts as a fluke anymore..
Massive India hating Mr. Jrod.
I like the fact that it brings more new cricket to watch. So many new people Stiaan Van Zyl, Puttick, Moises Henrquies…why always dwell on the negatives?
@Deepak, I believe the hint to JRod’s irony is in the first two lines of this post.
Can’t see why the RTA ever bothered with their logo on NSW outfits/merchandise, even at home. For some reason it’s been retained, even now that the the “speedblitz” has been replaced by the name.
love this post. Hope somerset or the otago volts(!) win the show. And then get hired by an ipl team. The irony is that the ipl teams have more south africans than indians….
As I see it.. there is jus 1 winner in the IPL and 7 soar losers. the Champions League is nearly similar.. jus more losers!!
fucken hell…T&T has more indians in their side than the IPL teams.
IPL team losing gives credibility to champions league , just like india losing in champions trophy gives credibility to the tournament. Otherwise western press will say BCCI fixing everything…blah blah.
Come on stop hating!. I hate BCCI though because they keep selecting their midget relatives of BCCI members for all under 19 team to everything.
Why in the hell pyesh chawla and parthiv patel midgets keep getting selected? They can’t even hit the dam ball over 30 yard circle. They score by mishits…it would be foulball in baseball.
India have strong people (look at indian army well built 2 million 6 feet tall sikhs and dalist are there.) but BCCI likes to select their midget team every year.
I think that issue is more internal stuff.
Western cricketers just take the money and run and stop critiqing the people who (BCCI) feed them.
Ya. Just enjoy until these things ran out of steam.
I rather want aussie team wins this champions league. IPL teams are far entertainment Team. HIT and GLEE.
Unless sehwag or gilchrist goes nuts , it will be one of aussie team that will win it. I won’t count out of T&T as they have better bits players.
@highbrow69 : MJ Baker was not the batsman u dumbo
true story , i too wondered how come M.J. Baker is coming on to bowl another over after just having finished one
Indian teams may be in piss-poor form but Lalit & Co. still throw one hell of a bash. Regardless of Sehwagologists’ eschatological objections, he is clearly the Savior Foretold.
