Louis Expounds Upon Twenty20

Very even IPL so far

Note to self: do not support the pink franchise next time, they are extremely pathetic

They've been awful today. Archer and Tewatia might be able to drag the score closer to respectability.

Ah well, nevertheless...

I was watching some old clips yesterday and saw Andrew Tye getting smacked around. Thought to myself 'ah now wasn't he a flash in the pan'. Next day he's playing for the Royals. And getting smacked around. A lot.

Amazing end to KKR vs KXIP. Maxwell needed a six to take it to a super over and hit a four that must have been two cm from the boundary marker.

Yet another Narine-induced choke though. KKR are the Dhoni of bowling

Someone's decided to put a stop to this whole Narine thing. Very shady

Hmm. I didn’t notice him chucking, or bowling any differently to how he has all tournament (other than more accurately).

Feels corrupt tbh

Holy shit at today's result. I'd given up and tuned out. These Royals don't half pull you back in, goddammit

God these fucking choking poltroons

That was a lot closer than it should have been but good to see the Boss back.

Lol, what a disaster for the Royals.

nice to see they don't just choke with the bat

Ferguson effectively 5-17. Phenomenal bowling.

Two super overs in the same day!

Bizarre running from Jordan though.

Make that three super overs.

Fantastic win for KXIP. Delighted for them.

Cmon. This time. Please

These bastards make it look so easy and then they make it look impossible. The weirdest franchise by far

The whole season has turned weird.

Hyderabad were 110-5, chasing 15 off 13, and were bowled out for 114 yesterday. I’m really enjoying the KXIP resurgence.

yeah that was freakish and went well beyond any notion of Sunrisers having a dodgy lower order

KXIP lost some really close ones early on and were certainly in a 'false position'

I forgot the matches start an hour earlier now the clocks have gone back. Excellent strangulation of KKR by KXIP.

This is ruthless

Mandeep has been excellent since Gayle came in.

Maybe too early to say they've become tournament favourites, but they've become something

Terrific start for Hyderabad - Warner's just taken 22 off Rabada. 77 from the first six overs.

They had Saha this whole damn time? Bloody hell

lol at Rashid finishing 7-3 off the full four overs.

Putting it the Australian way around there had me going for a second lol

Wait I'm talking nonsense. You put it the batting way around, not the bowling, I mean

This is magnificent stuff from Gayle and Pooran.

I say as Pooran is caught.

Aw, Gayle bowled by Archer for 99.

omg rekt

(surely)

even if it does all end next game it's been a particularly A+ season of drama and madness from yer runabout Royals

Maybe too early to say they've become tournament favourites, but they've become something

lol

gonna watch my Royals flame out over United-Arsenal

yeah this is the stuff

Mark Nicholas is like the perfect example of someone who's probably a bad human in most regards, but he is such a good commentator imo, he's like a guilty pleasure

If they keep this up, you can catch kickoff at 4:30.

this is how it had to be. the flames are beautiful

lol

ok I might actually watch the football

definitely the most glorious campaign of any team to have ever finished bottom of a league

Yep, the Tewatia game was an all-timer.

There were two Tewatia games!

Cmon Delhi, throw these charlatans in the trash. Win it in 15

Tears in my eyes, maiden T20 century for Sunil Narine #IPL2024 pic.twitter.com/QTrRyl4BJy
