***Official*** Asia Cup 2016

given that we are likely to get whupped today, I hope we show some different thinking and try dropping dilshan to the middle order with chandimal and dickwella opening, siri, Mathews ,Jayasuriya, kapu, dilly , shanaka , kula, herath, chameera as the batting order..

didn't watch - what were Pak paying at 3-fer?

1.28

Nehra is so good now. It's crazy. We were so concerned about how bad Yadav and Bhuvi were bowling, and with Shami's injury and Ishant being Ishant...and then out of nowhere Nehra and Bumrah have showed up and we suddenly have an extremely potent T20 bowling attack. Add in Yuvi and Pandya and the T20 side looks so good.

He's only good when there's a bit of movement imo.

Still, definitely an upgrade over Yadav and an out of form Bhuvi.

 

[Daemon]

I mean it's good bowling but they're making it look unplayable. That was appalling technique from Jayasuriya, cannot believe he's a #3 batsman.

 

[Daemon]

That's plumb. Lol at Russel Arnold saying 'good decision' literally a millisecond before they showed it pitching in line.

Sri Lanka definitely should have picked Dilhara to complete the trifecta of frustrating early-2000s meme bowlers making a comeback. If Nehra and Sami are any indication he might have actually gone okay, too.

 

[Prince EWS]

Pandya's bowling looks slightly less **** every time he plays. You really can't understate how massive it'd be for both India's limited overs teams if he lived up to his potential.

 

[Black_Warrior]

I think he'll be a handy LO bowler against pretty much everyone except the really strong battling sides like Australia or New Zealand.

 

[Daemon]

Is it me or does Jadeja's action look different? Seems to be spearing it in from an even more round arm action when he comes over the wicket.

Yeah, can add Tait too in there I suppose.

Wow, do our batsmen share a common single brain cell to reduce their environmental footprint???

He's **** in
1. conditons we play the most
2. these conditions but against better opponents (Australia/SA)

Lol, they probably also share it with the Pakistani batsmen to reduce it further

haha, was about to post exactly this

 

[Prince EWS]

This innings has actually seemed so much worse than the score suggests.

 

[smash84]

lol, perera was not out

 

[Daemon]

ump doesn't refer it for once and it's actually not out

 

[Prince EWS]

Perera walking for a stumping when he wasn't even out really sums it up I think

EDIT: Actually apparently he was given. I thought he just walked off.

 

[Burner]

wtf ump

 

[OverratedSanity]

Lolera
