IPL 2024 Power Rankings #4 – Kuldeep & Jasprit are awesome, Faf is frustrated & a CSK statement week

Spread The Viralist

In this episode of the show, Baldy, Binksy, Raj and Stu look back at another week that was in IPL 2024.

Recorded on 15 April, we review all 10 teams, awarding the turquoise cap and handing out the power rankings along the way.

– Is the biggest threat to the Rajasthan Royals actually the Rajasthan Royals?
– Will the Kolkata Knight Riders ever slow down?
– Can the Chennai Super Kings get even more from MS Dhoni?
– Are the Sunrisers Hyderabad batters struggling?
– Can Shubman Gill carry the Gujarat Titans to the playoffs?
– Are the Lucknow Super Giants slumping?
– Why is the Mumbai Indians’ bowling so bad when Jasprit Bumrah is so good?
– Are the Delhi Capitals the scariest team in the bottom half of the ladder?
– Will a Punjab Kings game ever finish outside of the final over?
– Has Faf du Plessis given up on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru bowling attack?
– And much more!
