RP Singh bowling rubbish. The only good thing about this is that Sreesanth should make a return to the one-day side pretty soon.

How was it Dravid's fault when he was only responding to the call?

I reckon Dravid called for the strike. Dhoni never looked like he wanted the run.

I'm over this left-arm rubbish that India have put out for the last 3 years.

Zaheer, Nehra, RP Singh and quite often Pathan just bowl crap.

I'll take Harbhajan, Munaf, Agarkar and Sreesanth as the ODI bowling line-up. Pathan and Powar can interchange when required.

Yeah, sometimes I wonder why the Pakistani team don't force Afridi to just deal in singles for a few overs, prohibit him from scoring a single boundary till so and so over. It seems hard to believe that a player could have absolutely no will power.

Because it's a stupid and counterproductive tactic? Especially when he's opening the batting or coming in late, as he always does unless the team is in crisis.

You don't tell a player he's not allowed to hit a boundary. You tell a player to only look to hit bad balls to the boundary, unless it's the slog overs.

RP is just hopeless..

I've got to say that's the first time I've seen airbound dew. (or whatever it's called).

The windies collapse has begun.

The windies collapse has begun.

Not if Chanderpaul has anything to say about it. He's played some breath-taking shots tonight.

*crickets chirp*

But with Sarwan in and Lara throwing himself down the order again, the Windies are still in great shape for this. Putting up a pretty good defence of the title so far.

 

[Dravid]

If two more wickets are picked up by India soon then this will turn in to one hell of a contest

I heard a rumor that Tony Shalhoub is leaving "Monk", and the producers have expressed an interest in Sehwag auditioning for the role.

shaping up to be a comfortable windies win....and that probably means curtains for india in this tournament considering they face the aussies next....

 

[Slow Love™]

Morton and Sarwan looking pretty solid now, but Harbhajan and Sehwag have been keeping it pretty tight. You'd imagine Lara would definitely come in when the next wicket falls if his back is OK, though Smith is listed on the scoreboard above him.

why "monk"? let him audition for some soap and disappear for the next 20 years...

 

[TT Boy]

Irfan Pathan the new Wasim Akram?

 

[Dravid]

Rubbish bowling from Agarkar. Bring back the two P's of the team.

 

[silentstriker]

Irfan Pathan the new Wasim Akram?

Clearly so. I must eat my words now, as I promised.

 

[silentstriker]

LOL @ Pathan's "slower" ball.

 

[Dravid]

I would laugh my ass off if India get a maiden over here and west indies don't get the runs

 

[Dravid]

WTF!? Someone please tell me why Agarkar is bowling over Patel!?!?!?
