Geez... would have expected a score of 220-230 max given India's start and the pressure they put on towards the middle... yet again they manage to put themselves into a losing position. Anything above 250 seems VERY dodgy for India to chase.

I'd say so. England have 4 bowlers + Collingwood. Unless everyone bowls their 10 or Pietersen bowls, you'd imagine Wright would bowl. I've only seen him bowl once IIRC and it was completely dire, so don't expect too much. :p

Yes I think Wright will get a chuck. From what I have seen he can be pretty expensive, but he bowls decent pace, and is not a bad option if one of the main bowlers are struggling.

Yuvraj bowled the 48th over for India, now thats Dire!!
Tendulkar bowling the 49th thats even more dire.
100 for Shah terrific performance.

Agarkar actually is a death bowler, he's just bowled complete rubbish all series.

Oh no he is a "Strike bowler' He strikes terror in the Indian batsmen's hearts.

India have to bowl Sachin Tendulkar and Yuvraj in the last three overs of such an important game with MrAgarkar having two overs left. Thats how good a bowler he is.

In this series in six matches so fatr he has taken 8 wickets at 47 each at 7.2 runs per over !!

Shah gets his hundred, that just complicates things even more for England after Cook and Bell doing well.

Personally I still don't think Shah is quite good enough, given he's a relatively poor fielder.

Four bowlers for India would not be a bad option if they four they picked were reliable in the roles they were given. When one of them is Agarkar and two of them are spinners (and hence have limited situations in which they can bowl), four bowlers simply isn't enough. It's not like Gambhir and Uthappa offer so much with the bat that they demand selection ahead of a fifth bowler, either.

Poor form from Dravid tbh. Powar had 1 over left, and if you're gonna bowl a slower bowler in the last over you surely bowl him? Rather than a part time spin bowler?

30 off the last over takes England to a fantastic score.
