Can we stop getting out to Moeen Ali ffs?*

* I know some of you rate Ali, but we are Indian fans. We don't tolerate losing wickets to ANY spinner. OK, I probably tolerated Muralitharan. And Saqlain. But that's it.

Oh dear will the **** posting ever end, here's an easy sentence, it's very useful for many not too look pig-headedly boring and idiotic.

Did you tolerate getting BTFO by Swann and Monty on your home turf?

Ganguly seemingly telling England to almost revert to their old style here, very interesting to hear. Says that we should play at least the first 6 overs each ball on their merit. Really rate him as a cricketing mind, so that has taken me aback a bit. General consensus seemed to be that England stuck in the past.

England were 117-4 after 29 overs so India should have no excuse not to chase this down. Rayudu needs to go and get a big one like Root did.

Fair play to Finn that is one of the worst balls to ever take a wicket but he deserves it after the dog**** catching from his team mates earlier.

good to bowl Anderson here, he's awful at the end, so bowl him out when they're still worried about losing wickets. Going to look a bit silly Moeen not bowling his 10 though.

Found this quite interesting actually: Numbers Game: England's problems against spin | Cricinfo Magazine | ESPN Cricinfo

So England only score against spin at a rate of 0.11 and 0.1 per over worse than India and Australia respectively, while scoring at a rate of 0.11 and 0.21 better than SA and SL each. The issue is we get out to them a lot more, hence our average being third worse amongst the top 10.
From the article:
New Zealand, surprisingly, are on top of the table with a 50-plus average and a run rate of more than five
Go **** yourself, Rajesh. A useless piece of **** article from a useless piece of ****. I hope you die of gonorrhea. Slowly.

Love your work, keep it up.

Crap ODI series. Not one competitive game, India on the plane home already in this one and far, far to good in the others.

India were still in it until Dhoni got out, after that its been a bit of a bore though, just gone nowhere after that.

Of course not. I cried for many nights.

PS. Don't act so touchy. What I said is called exaggeration for effect. Geez
Would have been more realistic for your exaggeration for effect, if you hadn't been saying the exact same thing all through the series.

Jadeja having a last minute troll. Enough to get a 100, probably won't win the match though.

India were miles off the pace even with Dhoni there, it was on only because he could score 130* because he is a G.O.A.T not because it actually was happening.
