Manage episode 413878364 series 2649227
NOTE: The introduction of this episode was cut off from our recording, so the show jumps straight into team number one to start this podcast and there's odd sound glitch.
In this episode of the show, Baldy, Binksy and Stu look back at another week that was in IPL 2024.
Recorded on 22 April, we review all 10 teams, handing out the power rankings along the way.
- Jos Buttler scored an incredible hundred, but is he going to leave the IPL right when the Rajasthan Royals need him the most?
- An incredible week for Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma and the Sunrisers Hyderabad
- Sunil Narine and Andre Russell continue to play match-winner for the Kolkata Knight Riders
- Are the Chennai Super Kings too balanced?
- KL Rahul's captain’s knock keeps the Lucknow Super Giants in the playoff picture
- The Mumbai Indians are working their way up the table, but apart from Jasprit Bumrah are still struggling with the ball
- Can the Gujarat Titans recover from the net run-rate hit they took against Delhi?
- Has Jake Fraser McGurk's form for Delhi Capitals vaulted him into Australia's T20 World Cup plans?
- Ashutosh Sharma is one of the few bright spots for Punjab Kings
- Royal Challengers Bengaluru's woes continue - but was Virat Kohli's dismissal fair?
- And much more!
We'll be back again later in the week with more news and views, but until then please take the time to give us a like, follow, share or subscribe on all our channels (@toporderpod on Twitter & Facebook, and @thetoporderpodcast on Instagram & YouTube) and a (5-Star!) review at your favourite podcast provider, or tell a friend to download. It really helps others find the show and is the best thing you can do to support us. You can also find all our written content, including our Hall of Fame series, at our website.
You can also dip back into our guest episodes - including a recent conversation with Mike Hesson, plus chats with former World Cup stars Shane Bond and Mike Hussey, current players such as Matt Henry, Sophie Devine and Ish Sodhi, coaches Gary Stead, Jeetan Patel and Luke Wright, as well as Barry Richards, Frankie Mackay, Bharat Sundaresan and many more fascinating people from all across the cricketing world.
