38th Match - India v England

[Jarquis]

Should still get 330ish with a bit of luck.

Not much luck in those three shots. Purr.

 

[vcs]

These runs he's giving away are far more costly than any benefit from the late wickets. Poor death bowling.

 

[Cabinet96]

What a tournament from Stokes. Crazy that I was thinking he was one of the weaker bits of our team a year or so ago.

 

[fredfertang]

We have plenty here - time for a nap

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yeah pretty poor from shami. Much more pentrative than bhuvi but in the death overs he's not great.

 

[Cabinet96]

All time worst five fer in an ODI match?

Nah he bowled well until the death. In the long history of ODI cricket I'm sure there are lots of junk five fers from people having a slog at the death.

 

[OverratedSanity]

For a bloke with 5 and okay-ish figures, Shami has bowled some proper dross in the last half hour

7 excellent overs, 3 bad ones.

Steve Finn took a hattrick off the last three balls in the last WC against Aus, having gone for plenty beforehand

All time worst five fer in an ODI match?

Lol wtf no what a horrible opinion. He bowled superbly for his first two spells and was the main reason why India got back into the game.

His batting is superb. His bowling is deceptively poor though as his career record suggests.

Rashid got absolutely spanked in the WI before cleaning up the tail in that series where Gayle hit every third ball for six.

 

[wrongun]

What an innings by Ben. Highly needed considering the context of this game. Damage has been done to the spinners too. Wonder if this game will have lasting effects for India for the next 2 games...this could also mean that AUS could potentially go in at 1 and face NZ or Pak in the semis. This indian team has shown more grit than others in the past though, so can't make the foolish mistake of ruiling them out

 

[Groundking]

His batting is superb. His bowling is deceptively poor though as his career record suggests.

His bowling has been good this world cup and underused.

 

[cnerd123]

Such a mixed spell from Shami. 5 wickets but those last two overs may have helped England put up a winning score here.

Bumrah is so good.

 

[Spark]

Bumrah is incredible.

 

[wrongun]

Lol wtf no what a horrible opinion. He bowled superbly for his first two spells and was the main reason why India got back into the game.

Yea that wasn't a bad spell at all. If anything, Chahals brisk 88 may have put this game out of reach for India but not Shammi

 

[Jarquis]

Bring on the free hit
