Not the best Last over ive seen bowled. Someone needs to show RP Singh how to bowl full and straight.

Yeah, he did well. If he & Broad prove up-to-scratch with the ball, then they won't be the worst pre-tail in the world.
I worry about our bowling without Fred though. Tremlett was a disaster last time out, Monty doesn't frighten the Indians in any form of the game, and I can't imagine what will happen to 10 overs from Colly & Bopara. And that before you wonder which verson of Anderson will appear and remember that Broad's massively inexperienced.

I was actually suprised you're actually watching a ODI match.. after all they are useless so don't know why you'd bother wasting you're time on them.

Cricinfo said that Bopara failed again. When is he going to get a decent opportunity to bat? I can only recall him batting at no. 3 once and and 7/8 all the other times.

His dismissal was a clever bit of captaincy from Dravid in fairness. He took himself out of mid-on & then Ravi got a leading edge which spooned to Dravid himself trying to turn the ball into that gap on the leg side.

RP Singh, Patel and Powar need to sort out their fielding. Ganguly just looked like a frail old man on the boundary
Powar's fitness really lets the team down though, his bowling is decent but he doesn't do anything with the bat... I think Sehwag would have been ideal in place of Powar, he can bowl tight and also his batting is more reliable than Powar's

Sehwag. Reliable. In the same sentence. Huge contradiction in terms.

Seems impressive.
So far, he's showed that his wickets against the 'minnows' were no fluke, just too bad his RR is slightly high.

- I should have bolded "than Powar"I really think Powar is holding up a spot for a good batsman/part-time spin bowler... he leaks far too many singles and two's. As for Patel - his slingy throw alone allows another single!

I thought that was nonsense from cricinfo - both innings in this series he's come in at the hit & hope stage. I think that if Fred is fit again during this series, Bopara should bat above him, which would give him more of a chance to build an innings. Plus he's a better bat than Flintoff nowadays.
