It's really not that bad an idea.. just execution was off.. he wasn't getting a run any other way and if they are to chase 100 they need one of the two batsmen to take the attack to the bowlers.. there is no way they are getting home by going at 2/over."81/7 need less than a 100 to win with 5 sessions to go.
Herath has a five fer.
Hmmm
HEY I GOT IT
Let me charge down the track and try to chip the ball over the man at wide mid on.
Yea, yea that's a good idea. Show some #intent. Take the attack to him. Get some momentum rolling."
**** off Ashwin you dumb ****.
Seriously shut your pie hole. Rahane has to score. Ashwin had to ust stay there.It's really not that bad an idea.. just execution was off.. he wasn't getting a run any other way and if they are to chase 100 they need one of the two batsmen to take the attack to the batsmen.. there is not way they are getting home by going at 2/over.
WHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYy?It's really not that bad an idea.. just execution was off.. he wasn't getting a run any other way and if they are to chase 100 they need one of the two batsmen to take the attack to the bowlers.. there is no way they are getting home by going at 2/over.
No **** off back to your spreadsheets. It was a dumb ****ing idea.It's really not that bad an idea.. just execution was off.. he wasn't getting a run any other way and if they are to chase 100 they need one of the two batsmen to take the attack to the batsmen.. there is not way they are getting home by going at 2/over.
Because Herath and co will bowl you out if you go just 2/over cos you will be defending and keeping them on the same length.WHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYy?
Welcome to the cricket web forum Mr B McCullum.It's really not that bad an idea.. just execution was off.. he wasn't getting a run any other way and if they are to chase 100 they need one of the two batsmen to take the attack to the bowlers.. there is no way they are getting home by going at 2/over.
That logic makes sense when you have 8 wickets left.. they had 3 in hand with no recognized batsmen coming in. Which means one of them had to take the attacking option or it's just a matter of time anyway.No **** off back to your spreadsheets. It was a dumb ****ing idea.
Just play sensibly. Block the good balls. Play out the maidens. Wait for the loose ball and score.
Test cricket has been played that way from literally hundreds of years for a reason, this T20 bull**** logic of attacking the bowler and hitting off his length does not ****ing apply when the pitch is decent to bat on and you need 100 runs in 5 ****ing sessions
SO ****ING WHAT? Just don't get out and stay there for an extra session and win the match. Are they that lazy fmdBecause Herath and co will bowl you out if you go just 2/over cos you will be defending and keeping them on the same length.
First Cricket test played in 1877. Its 2015. Just sayin'.No **** off back to your spreadsheets. It was a dumb ****ing idea.
