Christian, Gary Putland, Peter George, Callum Ferguson, Kane Richardson,

Duval, Joel Davies, Cullen Bailey, Daniel Cullen.

MY SAY:

SHAUN TAIT IS THE ONLY REAL THREAT HERE.HE IS AN EXPRESS
QUICKER.HAS PLAYED A LOT OF INTERNATIONAL MATCHES FOR THE WORLD CHAMPIONS
AUSTRALIANS.BUT HIS BOWLING WILL BE FACED BY THE WALL-DRAVID,MONSTER-UTHAPPA
AND OTHER RAGING YOUNGSTERS.SO HIS THREAT LEVEL WILL BE MINIMISED.GRAHAM MANOU
IS ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL CAPPED PLAYER.HE DID NOT PROVE MUCH WITH THE CHANCE
GIVEN TO HIM.SO HE IS NOT A THREAT.THE NEXT THREAT IS CALLUM FERGUSON.HE IS A
VERY GOOD YOUNGSTER BATSMAN WITH HIS CLASSICAL CLEAN HITS CAN PROVIDE US FEW
PROBLEMS BUT WE HAVE THE OLD HORSE-ANIL WITH US AND OTHER BRILLIANT BOWLERS
LIKE PK AND VK.ALSO THIS TEAM DOES NOT HAVE A GREAT HISTORY BEHIND ITS BACK SO
ITS PRETTY EVIDENT THAT RCB WILL WIN THIS ONE.

3.MUMBAI INDIANS:

HISTORY:

Mumbai INDIANS, is a franchise cricket
team representing
Mumbai in the Indian Premier League. The team is one of the
eight founding members of the IPL in 2008. Mumbai Indians are currently led by Sachin
Tendulkar, who is also the Icon
Player for the team and is
coached by TA SEKHAR. The team is owned by India's biggest conglomerate, Reliance Industries, through its 100% subsidiary
IndiaWin Sports.It did not have a successful IPL1 AND IPL2 but they made it
count in IPL3,with the star master blaster SR TENDULKAR minting runs.SR
TENDULKAR stormed his teams into the finals but were eventually defeated by the
CHENNAI SUPER KINGS.

MY SAY:

It is a
very good team as we all know,it has
Sachin,Zaheer,Malinga,Jayasuriya,Satish.Pollard is most likely to play for his
West indied T20 county if at all his teams qualify.MI will be his only other
option because Southern Australia is his another option wide open.Also there
are many other players and as we all know the newly developed “ALL
ROUNDER”,Harbhajan singh will also play a very crucial role.Rayudu and other
local talents are formidable too.But MI revolves only around SACHIN
TENDULKAR.If we have his wicket early we are pretty certain to pull down MI’s
confidence below 0.As I told we have Dravid in our batting line up and even the
top bowlers will look small in front of him.so we win our second game here.

4.HIGHVELD
LIONS:

HISTORY: The Highveld
Lions is the name used by the
combined Gauteng and North West first class cricket teams in South Africa. The home venues are the New Wanderers Stadium inJohannesburg and Senwes Park in Potchefstroom.

The combined team plays in the SuperSport Series first class cricket competition as well as in the MTN
Domestic Championship and Standard
Bank Twenty20 limited
over competitions.

MY
SAY:

This
is the only domestic local team we will be facing in our group stages.They
would have mastered the local conditions so even if there are not many big
shots we should beware of them.Starting with the captain Neil McKenzie,we all
know him I guess.he is a player with good temperament and technique but he is
not fit for this big hitting and slogging.So he is not going to pose a big
threat in T20 format of the game.The next known player is Andre Nel.This lanky
bowler is an aggressor and a true fighter till the last ball.he has got tons of
international experience.There are several other youngsters in this team who
are not known.they may be hidden talents but their domestic statistics doesn’t
pose any big threat.So its certain that WE(RCB) will this one as well.

1.WEST
INDIES T20 TEAM:Let it be TRINIDAD OR JAMAICA…..we RCB ians are leat
bothered.We are the best team and we are certain to win this one aswell.so 4
out of 4 for RCB.

MY
SAY:

RCB
has a good record in South Africa as it was witnessed in IPL2.We are certain to
miss the services of Morgan and our dear Kevin Piterson.Kallis and Boucher are
still undecided.Taylor in a dilemma too….WAIT!!!!!!Its an Indian team….so lets
see our Indians.We have the fearless Robin UThappa who can blow out the
oppositions with his clean strikings.We have an amazing youngster in the form
of Manish Pandey,Virat Kohli,PK,VK and others……We have the brave heart ANIL
KUMBLE-A BORN LEADER as our captain.Last but not least we have the GOD OF
CRICKET-RAHUL SHARAD DRAVID in our team.He is a master in every country and his
average in South Africa is high.So we have a very balanced team and think WE
THE RCB fans-the POWER HOUSE of RCB are there to cheer our team always.And the
glamour quotient Sid Mallya and Deepika and others will surely be a big plus
for our RCB!!!!!!!!!

Thank
you.
