***Official*** India in England 2014

Both Strauss and Ganguly saying Dhoni is one of the biggest fighters in world cricket.


Odd.

 

[Jono]

**** no confidence in Dhoni at all here.

Odd.

In tests he fights like a featherweight against a heavyweight.

One dayers the bloke is amazing but his lack of technique shafts him with the red ball and catchers in.

Dhoni doesn't look good here. Plunkett doing well here but could do with going a bit straighter.

Padding up is dodgy. See them given wrongly very often as it always looks so bad.

Its just stupid commentary. Happy for them to say he's gotten India out of trouble in tests before, beause he has (albeit in the subcontinent). But never from fighting knocks.

Gun bowling. Close lbw appeal happening every over. One is going to be given whether right or wrong here. Umpires often give in.

 

[Jono]

Dhoni in "cbf moving feet to drive" mode but in "will move my feet to leave" mode.

 

[Jono]

Holy **** Strauss cracking jokes.

 

[Cruxdude]

We need a minimum of 250 to be competitive. What a turnaround in those 15 minutes.

 

[Cevno]

Good knock Vijay. Now carry on.

 

[Teja.]

50 for Vijay. Now he's a fighter.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good knock by Vijay, hope he loses the plot and gives it away soon though.

 

[Jono]

Indian fan Vijay haters need to post and make a mea culpa. All the Vijay backers have come out and demanded they admit they were wrong but they haven't revealed themelves.

 

[Jono]

Beefy's constant refusal to say "oh nope he was home, I was wrong" or similar all the time is amusing.

 

[91Jmay]

Get through till close and India are still in a solid position with their bats down the order already showing they can add runs.

 

[91Jmay]

Another hundred for Adam Lyth. 990 runs @ 66 with 4 tons so far this season. He is surely the next man if Cook falls on his sword for a while? Can score quickly + freely as well.

Haha i'll hold my hands up and did in the past. Didn't feel he merited selection again at all when he was called back for no apparent reason except one knock on a flat track before selection but he's proved me wrong since.

 

[harsh.ag]

Get Anushka Sharma on the flight to London a couple of days before the third test. Our boy needs his mojo fix!

 

[Jono]

I swear I've been waiting for Dhoni to get bowled around his legs!
