I don't know why he'd botha

Redbacks,

, has it really been that long since they won a shield game?

@ putting their batting hopes of the frail shoulders of Phil Hughes. The scorecard for the last game looked abysmal. Still, you do well in the most important form so why care about the shield?

Good matches yesterday in the Champions League. CSK vs Sydney would have been quite close if not for the superb catch that Steve Smith took.

So, Delhi, Sydney, Lions and Titans have notched up a win so far. A lot more to go and looks like the matches get better as teams get used to the conditions.

Good god, this Champions League is boring. They should just scrap this pointless tournament.

It is just the rain playing spoilsport and washing off many games of interest.

Otherwise, this has been pretty good. While some of the matches were one-sided, there were a lot that were entertaining.

Sydney vs Chennai, Lions vs Mumbai, Lions vs Chennai, Lions vs Yorkshire and Chennai vs Mumbai were all very good matches and delivered more than what were expected of them.

No way this tournament should be removed from the FTP window.

^ Hack.

Seems to always be the rains fault and not the overexhaustion of the format that is starting to wear thin on majority of cricket fans. I barely saw one full stand at the Wanderers the other night, and that's abysmal.

Most of the matches have got good crowd, if not full house. And, most of last week was raining. Even the smallest crowd is more than what most test matches can hope for (over exhaustion?

). The matches that I have mentioned have been quite entertaining and closely followed where I am.

Just as we speak, another close, exciting match just got over. Perth vs Delhi.
