***Official*** India in England 2014

Dhoni at the presentation

"I wanted Virat at slip to stand a bit wide, standing up is a bit of a lottery whether it will come to the hand or not, I thought if the batsman steps out then I will stand up, otherwise stay back."

Basically admitting he is a **** keeper

 

[Daemon]

It's really unfair to expect Cook to score runs now with the immense pressure on him as a captain. I think retaining him as a captain will wreck him. Nasser on the money imo.

My fellow Indian fans. I hate to interrupt the celebrations but I have bad news.

I was supposed to go to this Lord's test match but in the end couldn't make it. Instead I will be attending day 1 of the 3rd test in Southampton.

I remind you all of my record of attending Indian away cricket matches - 7 losses and 1 draw.

Never attended an Indian win outside of India. I may **** this series up

Don't you ****ing dare.

 

[Viscount Tom]

I don't feel bad for Prior, comes in half fit drops catches than bats like Phil Tufnell. Seriously his time is up.

 

[ajdude]

over 25.1, lyon to pujara, bowled. "**** off" exclaims lyon

thank you based fox sports for allowing me to relive this moment

What, you in this Blessed Isle, honestly can this day get any worse?

 

[Teja.]

Dhoni's strategy in the 4th innings was pretty inspired. Massive props to him.

 

[YorksLanka]

I don't get this logic some fans have of "so and so isn't ready"? If a team loses can you actually do any worse? Yes you may lose by an innings but it's still a loss. Invest in the future for goodness sake. Get Buttler in, Hales in, Lyth in, Woakes in, Jordan in...give the captaincy to a Root for the remainder of the series...

 

[hendrix]

Yeah it's scary though because we played really well for our standards and England played pretty ****ing poorly. If they get their **** together they could very well pull it back.

Nah this is bollocks.

Kohli and Pujara haven't got runs yet, and Shami hasn't yet found rhythm. Ashwin will play next test and likely contribute more than Binny.

Moreover, India haven't yet put on a truly big score. As soon as they do, England will be done for the series.

Nah, he's speaking the truth for anyone there. Noone has time to react to a catch when you're standing up. It basically comes down to how big your hands are.

 

[OverratedSanity]

First Dhammika, now Ishant. England deserve every bit of embarrassment they must be feeling.

 

[Viscount Tom]

P.Moores
"In this Test, the ball cost us more than the bat. Once we got them to bowl short, if we got them to do that for 30 or 40 minutes, the pressure would have been back on India. That didn't happen.

Err Moores lad did you watch the dismissals?

 

[harsh.ag]

So, important question now. Was Rahane's hundred the greatest overseas innings by an Indian? Belongs in then conversation imo.

Yes, it does. Sachin at Perth, Sachin at Newlands, Pujara and Kohli at Jo'Burg, Dravid at Adelaide, Dravid Oval (217), Sunny Oval, Sunny Georgetown 82,

 

[ankitj]

Ecstatic that India won. Not sure how I feel about Ishant getting 7 wickets but will take it today

 

[silentstriker]

"First session today showed us that we had to be at our best, at that point what happens is you start doubting yourself. That last over before lunch, Ishant didn't want to bowl short, I just told him he has to and turned away. It was a fantastic performance."

Hahahaha. I feel bad for ishant. Everyone in the world has been telling him how **** he is because he can't figure out the right length so the poor guy has been trying.....and then his captain is like "bowl short". I'm shocked he didn't start crying.

I'm not sure many are saying that ATM, quite the opposite, I should say I did talk about whole-sale changes, at 3-0 down in Australia and most thought I was over-reacting. Yet we looked shot then and have continued to do so. I did think we should keep with Cook because I didn't see any other options, yet we're past that now.

Oh and if Hales plays Tests I'll cry.

 

[ankitj]

Second match in a row BK missed MoM when he was arguably the best player on both sides.

Don't blame me...blame the ghosts!

 

[King Pietersen]

Players don't get better playing FC cricket. Interesting from Botham. Likes talking **** doesn't he.

Also, why is it Prior or Buttler? There are way better keepers in the country than them two.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

I blame Sky. Ever since they got the new intro music/pictures we haven't won a game and are getting worse.

Change it you bastards.

 

[GIMH]

Whoa!!!

England Captain Retires
