Lol, Hey, I'm allowed, we're getting kicked here & I'm frustrated, whats your excuse?

Wow Thompson is poo house, he is so much better then is fellow left-armer who is what 40kmph faster.

Yeah he is pretty painful to watch. His best chance of a wicket is probably India not respecting him at all and doing something stupid.

 

[biased indian]

if this game is reduced to 20 overs i think our target will be some thing near to 130

D&L Calculation sucks i was way off ...from crcinfo The par score for 20 overs is 93 for 0

He's usually a bit better than this. That's not to say he's world class, but this is an unusually poor effort from him. Great batting, though.

i am frustrated that i cannot watch this live

 

[duffer]

Makes batting seem meaningless to me. Doesn't earn his runs. No respect for his wicket. No thought behind his shots. Just the vibe I get.

Yeah but just because it might appear on the surface that way doesn't make it true. Anyways I love watching him butcher attacks, he's the antithesis of classy Indian batting and brings heaps of variety to our lineup which makes me enjoy watching us bat more.

is it because he is bowling too many slower balls

 

[Evermind]

D/L or full 50, this match looks like it has only 1 result from hereon...

Wish I could watch this carnage.

Wow if Thompson can bowl 132 then yes McLenaghan could probally bowl thay quick.

Thompson has been around the 115-120 mark all night.

Yeah, I guess first impressions of his bowling for me aren't exactly awe inspiring.

 

[duffer]

Haha this is brutal. Just hope the rain stays away for 4 more overs at least.

 

[biased indian]

so India took batting power play ..???

of the 16 overs so far only one over has gone for less than 5 runs

Making Gambhir look like Ravi Shastri here.

Thompson bowled 132kph tonight and every single non-slower ball he bowled was between 126 and 132

A lanky sleazebag?

A lanky sleazebag?

Considering how Gambhir usually looks like a morose gimp, that's a pretty funny.

I know the masochist in me is liking it for sure.
