Better get it over before the spinner come, and he has his best two bowlers operating now.
Bring the spin on, tighten the screws and watch one of the Indian batsmen get taken at long on. Then call the PowerPlay when the new batsman walks in. These guys are set and it’s a waste of Harmy and Fred’s overs.

I'd say on this pitch, there is a better chance of these two strangling the Indians for runs, than a spinner trying to get one of them hitting to long on. Because, the ground is smaller and Sehwag's hits go for six, an Gambhir is damn a good player of it.

Anderson has gone wicketless in 11 out of his last 20 ODIs, as well as being wicketless so far today. And taken just 1 in 6 others.

Patel on in the Powerplays, strange indeed.

Ooh I forget Samit is left arm, That will create some problem for Sehwag.

EDIT - What problem? He gets inside out to sweeper cover.

No it isn't that was Bangladesh vs. NZ.
Oh well it's the start of it in England terms, and in terms of games I've taken the blindest bit of notice of. Only spotted that Pakistan and West Indies were playing after the game finished and obviously don't care about games with substandard teams.

And I reckon India'd do well to take the third Powerplay now, ITBT. Can see some reason for waiting obviously, but so far the later it's been taken the better for the fielding team.

It was basically a series proving that Bangladesh are on the rise, quality bowling with real class coming from the batting at times. Ahhhh well.

They'll NEVER be ODI class.

Why not just say you were wrong rather than pratting on and justifying it by talking about substandard teams. Oh of course, that ain't ur style.

No, I couldn't and never have cared about "ODIs" involving substandard teams.

It's fairly obvious I acknowledged that I missed the game between Pak and WI though. Try again.
