19th Match - India v Australia (27th March)

[Stace]

Raina really loves to find a way to get out to the short ball.

twatto, have to say i have warmed up to the guy over the years.

 

[smash84]

well, at least reiner didn't waste too many deliveries

 

[LightningStrike]

The way to win this game easily is to run a few 2's.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Is he alright Yuvi

 

[Stapel]

Yeah, I feel the same. As someone watches a lot of cricket (mostly test cricket, if I can help it), but hasn't got a proper team to support, I've found myself in supporting individual players, rather than teams/countries. I can't say the list is based on cricket abilities or performances (Sammy is neaar the top, but Ponting is/was several places below the bottom). Watson, for some reason, has been climbing on my list.

 

[LightningStrike]

Test match field for Yuvi.

Indeed. And thta's not getting easier with Yuvraj hobbling, rather than running.

 

[NUFAN]

I think Zampa will come on next over. Massive spell coming up for him - could easily go the journey against these 2 + Dhoni.

 

[91Jmay]

Aus game to lose from here

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Think Yuvi needs to retire and come back when if required. Running is so crucial now. India can't afford to miss out on doubles

A bit late for my liking. As a matter of fact, I was checking he was on the list at all.

EDIT: It's Maxwell.......

Agreed, waste of time him hanging around now, only use he will be if spinners come on and bowl toss.

 

[LightningStrike]

India's games seem to last 20 minutes longer than everyone else's.

I think that the pitch is a little two-paced and India traditionally handle Aussie spinners quite comfortably, so I can kind of understand the tactic. Maxwell on, Zampa and Maxwell might only bowl 4 overs combined.

 

[Pratters]

The match hangs in the balance, as Ravi would say.

 

[LightningStrike]

No Show normally gets a wicket doesn't he?

 

[Cabinet96]

Shocking from Nev.

 

[91Jmay]

Nev with absolute blunder there
