On the road today, so the spiel will be short, and its just the IPL.

3.20 Rajasthan to beat Kolkata 8/11 (WON +0.00 - A good strangle by Warne kept Kolkata's total to 147 but it looked like a close game at 70/4 off 10, until uncapped Yusuf Pathan, Irfan's younger brother smashed 48 off 18 balls (44 through the legside!) and the game was won with 3 overs to spare. Rajasthan have now qualified for the semi-finals)
As we've followed Shane Warne's charges from the start, their table topping status seems entirely justified. Warne has shown this format is not just about individual performances, but the whole team pulling together - including the local players. They have won both high scoring and low scoring encounters, batting first and second, and I expect them to rack up win number 9 today.
