CLT20 2012

well I must give credit to the Sialkot boys for going out there and trying their bit, they don't have any foreign superstars but they are fighting it out and that is great to see. Can't expect them to qualify or even win a game but this is at least a good experience for them, be it playing just 2 games.

absolute joke, very very short boundaries indeed, I think his entire CLT20 thing is absolutely unnecessary, why should a tournament like this have an official window?

We dont even play Razzaq - let alone Mahmood. strange

Apparently it was Hafeez himself who thought Razzaq should have been dropped for Tanvir as he wanted a new ball bowler, strange indeed, it is also to be noted that not only did Razzaq played a crucial knock in the Australia game but the only world tournament that Pakistan have won after 1992, which was the WT20 2009, Razzaq was one of the main reasons for winning that tournament.

4 team from IPL, 2 from SA and 2 from BBL and remaining 2 for rest of the four ... this is a big joke. Aptly written article in one of the websites "Where are the Champions" 

looks like the IPL teams have become the punching bags of CLT20, always thought playing in RSA will be difficult for them, even the overseas players can't save them.

How well has Azhar Mehmood been playing of late? Great to watch the commitment at this stage of his career. Only Chirs Gayle has more Man of the Match award in T20s than Azhar. Some stat that.

It certainly seems that way, particularly with the IPL teams struggling.

In a way, that's good for the competition i.e. to have more teams in with a chance but not great for the competition itself as it clearl relies on IPL support to have a big impact.

It's quite possible that there will be at most only 1 side from the IPL in the semi-finals.

It's very rare that a person like me would watch some TV shows with my family when cricket is being aired, but so boring have I found this tournament that I haven't found any interest whatsoever in watching these games. The only two games I have watched in this main tournament were the ones involving Lions against the IPL teams, Sick of saying this, but really do we need a meaningless champions league for almost a month where you don't even see champions playing being given an official window and no other cricket can take place during the time? Pathetic.

Now that the last last remaining IPL team is out , the foolish commentators who were hiding all these days will resurface and start talking about what they do best ... start speaking nonsense  about IPL and that none of the four teams made it to finals.

Lions vs Sydney Sixers .... Home Favs vs Tournament Favs , a good one .

A disappointing final , but maybe the powers that be will realise that this is a tournament that we can all do without - the reception here was really downbeat - no real cricket fans broke a sweat.
