TeaLeaf:So Jamieson came back well in the RCB game (the team I predicted to win the comp but most call them chokers, rightly so).
Hes averaging 19 so far. He really needs to stop trying to bowl top of off stump. There is zero respect for bowling accuracy in t20 and players will slog you off their stumps over the fence. Even more so with Jamiesons height on a good length the ball sits up perfectly for a cow corner slog.
So he needs to put away his Test bowling.
Just use the booming in swinger from 9ft high, his shock delivery is the chest high bouncer off a good length (broken a few fingers with that one) and the rest he needs to be bowling wide yorkers to a stacked offside field, with the occasional genuine yorker. He has probably the most control and accuracy, so he needs to use that but not in a genuine sense.
Boult is going pretty good too with his wicket taking.
Yet to see RCB use Finn Allen, they using 2 domestic players at 2 and 3 with Kholi opening. Id put Finn Allen in with Kholi and keep the other opener at 3, the Maxwell 4, Faf Du Plesis at 5, Jamieson at 6.
Maxi and FDP saved a major collapse for RCB and went on to score 206 from memory. Jamieson has chimed in with a 6, a 4, then hit a single to put Faf on strike who scored 72 off about 37
DC are having a good run, chasing down and scoring 198 in 18.3 overs, but last nights game was closer vs MI, who only scored 137 and it looked all over early, but DC timed it well and won it in the 20th over, with only 4 wickets down.
DC would be my wild card in the IPL.
It’s AB De Villiers and not Faf that is playing for RCB.
I would put Finn Allen at 3 but keep Kohli and Dev as openers.
Kyle Jamieson has done alright in the IPL but needs to improve on his economy rate.
