*Official* Second Test at Trent Bridge

U19 12th Man
:laugh: @ Nasser claiming to be oh-so-proud of India's #1 status. Give me a break. The guy's a condescending prick concerning ALL THINGS India, and always has been. And while I don't defend Shastri questioning his right to speak his mind, he was bang-on about the English media's massive butt-hurtness over India's dominance in cricket today. Nobody who's listened to Sky Sports or picked up an English newspaper can deny this.

Perhaps the players had some say, perhaps they had no say whatsoever. One thing is for sure and that is that mouthy English fans (not talking about people on this forum) do not have a ****ing clue what actually went on behind closed doors and so they should keep their mouths shut about such issues, imo.
Agree.

:lol:

You can't seriously think there is something like India's dominance in cricket....... That's really nonsense!

What are you talking about. Nassar loves the Indian batsmen, especially Tendulkar.

God I hope England win this series 4 nil

It probably is true but cant believe that anyone would take the British press that seriously. Really? Even after whats been going on over the past few months?

****ing rubbish. Nasser is one of the reasons why the Sky commentary team receive so much praise from the cricketing world. I'll admit Nasser hasn't quite been at his best in this series so far but usually he is a quality commentator who offers some quality thoughts and analyses on the game.

Shastri on the other hand, is a biased, antagonzing and vocal prick. Terrible commentator.

One wicket changes everything.

Incredible performance so far from Bell. Will this be a great unfulfilled cameo or will he turn it into a great and match-winning innings?

Why can't people say their stance is wrong though? Irrespective of how they arrived at it behind closed doors?

That last Bell boundary was sublime. /sideissue

Yeah AWTA. Besides, if Inida can't cop the UDRS then they will continue to cop poor decisions like Harbhajan's dismissal yesterday. It's their own fault.

You can say their stance is wrong. It is just that the particularly factually incorrect way of expressing it annoys me. It is an irrational annoyance, granted, but one I feel I have a right to air after several thousand posts :) [/Hussain].

agree but I also agree with this -

Fair enough. That's a matter for you.
