What recent cricket performance sparked discussion about DC's struggles?
Runs, runs, runs, deluxe. Except for DC, who were bowled out for 75 last night. I can't figure out what's going on. Can you? You're watching The Great Cricketer. You're watching The Asian Century. Come and see the naughty, naughty boys. Big cricket competition in India. Without saying that. Come on, Rhinestone. 200 from the Hosses.
Motherfucking beer.
Ready to run, mate. I would do a ring job right now. Pez and Eagles. From The Great Cricketer. I'm Tony. Welcome back to The Great Cricketer. You're watching The Ace in the Century right here. Now, runs, runs, runs. Deluxe Pezza has been so many runs. There's also been some low scores in between. Punjab have been outstanding. The best team in the tournament. RCB hanging on for dear life. They're going fantastically well after rolling DC for 75 last night. And everyone else kind of like, eh.
He goes, this is a competition, the Indian Cricket League. Wait, that was a different one. That was a different one, yeah. Look, I just want to say something. This is a competition that doesn't stop delivering in the face of ungrateful zero ball knowledge complaints. Because that's what I've seen this weekend. And I want to start with that. And it's a sour note on which to start, but it's a message that I want to send to those, particularly those with zero ball knowledge. Go off blood.
Yeah.
There's too many runs, are there? That's what I hear.
How has Punjab emerged as a strong team this season?
Okay. How about too many wickets? 48 hours later, same ground. Okay. 265 plays 265. How about six for 13? 13 for six. Two days later, same ground. Oh, Dhruv Durrell, Cam Green taking absolute screamers. All right. Well, here's 16 drop catches over the weekend. Okay. Too many shots of cheerleaders, I hear people say, and I read. Okay, well, here's an ambulance and doctors in white coats. Now, we wish Lungi and Gedi well, and he is well. Yes. Shout out to him and his family. But seriously, you know, all, and I am going to use the acronyms here, sue me. All the IPL and the BCCI and Jay Shah try and do week to week, night to night, is deliver edgy drama to the viewers around the world. sometimes twice in a night with the day games.
Absolute cinema. And people have the temerity to sit back and complain. You've seen more runs, then you've seen more wickets, then you've seen catches, then you've seen drop catches, then you've seen birds, then you've seen ambulances. This is modern entertainment. Let it wash over you. Let it all wash over you. Let the scroll happen. Watch all of it and watch none of it. Oh, wait, CSK's sixth. How the fuck is CSK sixth? They're a couple of results away from the final spot. How the hell did that happen? Tony's done a cough. You know what I mean? It's the great scroll, the IPL, and you're seeing entertainment every single night. Anything you want right there in front of your eyes. You've even got AI, Google Pixel, telling you that Jinky Rahane is playing well.
You know, anything you want, you can have. I need to get off the internet. I'm addicted.
If you like screaming, then why not join us for the Thursday lock-in on Dream 11. That is 3.30 IST in the afternoon. Or 8 o'clock our time in the evening. The Thursday lock-in on Dream 11. You know how to find us. So please do join us there. Let's start the show on the things we want to talk about. And that's just runs, runs, runs. It's an orange cap merry-go-round. Everyone gets to wear it for a period of time. Then someone else does something amazing 10 to 15 minutes later. They get to wear it for a bit. The next day, someone else does something amazing. They get to wear it. Now, Abhishek Sharma, who scored 135 off 68 against DC. I appreciate that was a while ago, but that was the last time we convened on this show.
135 off 68 against DC. DC have conceded quite a few scores recently. Anyway... Ian Bishop picked up Abhishek Sharma's reaction when he said that Abhishek said that it wasn't an easy pitch to score on despite Sunrise's being 242-42 and him scoring a lightning quick 135. That's perfect from Abhishek. That's absolutely perfect. It's majestic.
And also β yeah, go on.
