Oh man, Shakib just gave them a rectal exam 8) Love it. He averages 40+ with the bat and low 20s with the ball w/ economy rate <6.5 rpo.
KKR has been in full swing after the initial jitter.

Well as usual there was this news that was creating a flutter in the social media."When CSK lost to RCB,they unknowingly gave them a hit at the playoff and when RCB lost to SRH,CSK lost to KKR to make sure RCB was out of contention.

Shakib is the most under rated all rounder and he did pack a punch yesterday,but trust me,he had a very good launchpad to carry out his attack.Had Ashwin taken Uthappa's catch in the first over,things would have gone on differently.Anyways,we have our top 2 slot booked,we can afford to relax till the playoffs..:p

Well Shakib has played innings like that before under pressure too. The guy thrives under pressure, if you follow BD cricket. Of course Uthappa gave solid platform for sure - but still Chennai has choked games out of opponents before. This also gave them the NRR boost.
