*Official* England in India

[Mike5181]

A genuinely fast Indian bowler? My gosh. That was a great debut performance as well.

FFS we're even making Aaron and Yadav look good.

This is what it must be like watching Bangladesh bat.

Not really, Yadav was pretty expensive and didn't pick up many wickets either. Sort of did a Dernbach on a lesser scale.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Aaron Cleans up.

Did well with reverse swing.

Looked conventional swing to me, tbf. But very well bowled in any event. Looks a talent.

 

[Contra]

Loving our ODI set up, Ashwin's got that X-factor feel about him, Jadeja is starting to contribute more (although I still have doubts over his batting). And I really hope Aaron doesn't drop his pace in like a year =/

I refuse to get excited until we play overseas

We're atleast decentish in ODI's overseas tbf.

It's the tests which are a problem, especially with Zaheer out.

Have just lost 1 ODI in the last 17/18 ODI's in India IIRC reading somewhere .

Our overeas performances have been pretty decent actually, We won in WI, we almost beat SA, The Eng series was just hilarious with all the rain stoppages, but we played well there too, just a bit unfortunate to not get a few results going our way. But yes I am also interested to see how Ashwin and co perform on less helpful pitches (at least for spinners).

Being that you've only seen them play against England, on what basis are they not good?

 

[Contra]

saw that coming

 

[Daemon]

Tiwary to get a game in the next one ahead of Patel.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Could be interesting now. Least we given ourselves a chance.

 

[Contra]

Don't know what the rush is, just let these 2 finish there spells and milk the rest of the bowling.

 

[Howe_zat]

Finn's the one positive we've got out of this series.

Yeah, that and finally finding out Kieswetter, Bopara and Dernbach aren't up to it. Well the latter is good if they get dropped.

Fatit done ok, needs to be the 6th bowler though not part of the 5.

silentstriker said so.

 

[Daemon]

That is so Warne

 

[Howe_zat]

What is?

 

[Daemon]

What is?

The little amble up to the wicket

 

[BoyBrumby]

The little amble up to the wicket

Yeah, higher arm than the great man, but it's clear who young Scotty's been cribbing his homework off.

Ooops, too full and punished.

 

[Contra]

crashed off the back foot.
