***Official*** India in England

[BhupinderSingh]

Excuse me but did you stop watching cricket between 2000 and 2007 ?

I didn't but all I meant to say was that in last few years,he's worlked really hard to adjust in one day format of the game & has become a completely different player to what he was in early days of his career.BTW,first time when I thought that he could be a good ODI player was after watching some of his innings in 2002.Before that,his strike rate was in 60s which is not acceptable for me in ODIs.

 

[silentstriker]

Dropped!

 

[The_Bunny]

That was very poor fielding.

And Prior punishes them for it!

 

[Raghav]

@ Indian bowling and fielding

 

[silentstriker]

Ah, the good old days of Indian pace bowling have returned. I was starting to become jaded.

 

[Raghav]

Good pitch, short boundaries, Poor fielding can be of great help to England

 

[BhupinderSingh]

Dropped!

It was Dhoni's catch TBH & he should be blamed for it.

 

[Prince EWS]

Since when did you care about ODIs?

The Indian test pace attack is starting look somewhat decent by world standards - that's a fact you're going to have to face sooner or later.

Never. The Aussie batsmen will prove me right.

 

[Prince EWS]

Bah, they smash everyone around. Would prove nothing.

 

[Raghav]

Agarkar going at 10 an over

 

[adharcric]

Oh dear, desperate for Munaf today. Can we drop Agarkar now?

 

[The_Bunny]

India and Agarkar in particular are getting smashed here.
Could prove a very costly drop.

 

[Raghav]

consecutive 44444444444444444444444's from Agarkar.

 

[Prince EWS]

Can we drop Agarkar now?

Depends how everyone else goes I suppose. Munaf could well be even worse judging by how he bowled in the tour game.

 

[Raghav]

Poor Indian bowlers

 

[Chubby Rain]

I think its time some of the Indian fielders dropped a few jellybeans on the field.

But on the other hand, Agarkar is no Zaheer Khan .

 

[Prince EWS]

It must be said - a few top shots from Prior even when Agarkar has got it in the right areas. That shot off the back foot through cover for four was perfect technically - top shot.

 

[silentstriker]

Our fielding is horrible. I want an offside consisting of Yuvraj, Kaif and Raina again.

 

[Raghav]

44444444444444444444444444444444444444 again... Excellent start
