Chase and Choke in a T20 match – the MI way
1. While Chasing make the most innocuous score look absolutely insurmountable
2. Pick an extra bowler, If he takes a wicket pull him out of the attack
3. Economical bowlers should only bowl the last over
4. Shuffle a successful batting order
5. Good batsmen should bat down the order, lest they might make some runs
6. When you require 8 runs per over, try some defensive strokes
7. When you require 6 of 9 balls – go for the big hits
8. Demote hard hitters, promote unknown faces
9. Play the first 10 overs like a 5 day match, let the pressure build, then lose wickets
10. If still you are close to victory – Choke
