This has got to be the single biggest load of horse**** ever. I've seen this allegation thrown at me a couple of times now in the last few months, and by the same usual suspects.
Son, I've been there for India during the 2007 WC, our losses against Australia, South Africa, and the likes over the last 5 years. Heck I was there this summer, I was one of the first ones to wish England congratulations after the first couple of wins. Maybe if you weren't banned 95 percent of the time, you'd actually notice.
In fact, this last bit of play is the only time I've actually gotten the time to sit down and post in the entire series. I certainly wasn't here waving my shirt around in the first 3 games, when your team got a can of whoop-ass dished to them.
Now stop being bitter and throwing your toys out of the pram.

You know, you're a good poster. You make great points, and it's always a pleasure reading your insights into the game.
But it's posts like these that you have a tendency to dish out from time to time, which make you lose a lot of respect.

That's two whole posts more. Conclusive proof of glory hunting if there ever was any.

Wasn't watching it but typically these ODI pitches 'seem' spin friendly because they are dry and bite, it's just England bat badly on them vs spin bowling. They're slow enough to let you play spin off the pitch and don't bounce, which makes it very difficult for wrist spinners in particular. Borthwick really tosses it up and bowls slowly, so he has to nail the length spot on ball after ball or he's in trouble - which isn't going to happen for any leg-spinner let alone one that's 21 years old. I guess you need to fire the ball through a little bit, those who follow Indian cricket will know better than me. India's spinners were still firing it through and giving it minimal revolutions when they toured England, which didn't go well for them. As it will barely turn if you bowl like that and it's far easier to play through the line of the ball over here.

Brilliant knock from Kohli, he is a legend in the making!
Raina too played a dashing innings,
We really are giving the English a lesson in One Day Cricket 5-0 it will be in a few days! :-)
Sledging when you are getting pasted just makes you look silly, but it is we who had the last laugh so it is all good!

More to Swann's dropping than "tactics" or my name's Richard Dickinson.
Seen it hinted in a couple of articles some of the squad were less than impressed by what he said in his autobiography & Mike Selvey baldly stated in yesterday's Guardian that he & Patel "aren't believed to be great friends" which is about as close as papers get to saying "they both think the other is a ****".
