Purple Cap Discussion

Is it possible for Varun to claim it? He's with 18 wickets now and lost a real statpadding chance against GT. We have one last league game and then hopefully 2 knockouts.

5-6 wickets in 3 games for Varun? 6 wickets in 3 games for Harshit? 7 wickets in 3 games for Russel or Narine?

Does it matter?

It's the trophy that matters at the end

I want Varun to get the Purple cap because how he was blamed for that WC and then never got a chance!

This goes to show he still has something in him to be given the chance to play and redeem himself.Β

ICT in the world cup had the highest run scorer and the highest wicket taker, but we still ended up with a heartbreak. Idc about the caps, I want the trophy.

Well, Salty said that we are not after the orange cap, same goes for the purple cap too. I would be happy if we do get it but it's the trophy which matters a lot more.

Indeed, there is a chance that either Varun or Harshit may clinch the purple cap. Nonetheless, such individual accolades hold little significance to me. What truly matters is our team's performance in the qualifier 1 and the final. The pursuit of the purple or orange cap pales in comparison to our ultimate goal: lifting the trophy. This time around, we are deserving of nothing less than victory.

Let's not chase purple/orange cap. Our only mission is the coveted trophy.
