Group E - England, India, South Africa, West Indies

No time to play yourself in Shah....we need 160 minimum

 

[Smith]

Excellent innings from KP though. Potentially match winning.

 

[ret]

Jadeja strikes again! .... Eng losing their way, would have thought they would pick it up after the 50 runs partnership b/w bopara and kp

 

[andruid]

Shah and Mascarenas at the crease. Just the pair Scaly would want at the crease

 

[tooextracool]

This England lower middle order is pathetic. Theres no one really who can score at SRs at 125+

 

[BoyBrumby]

Reckon I'd feel safe with 180 onboard, be lucky to get 140 from here.

Collingwood, Shah, Mascarenhas, Foster, Swann...

 

[superkingdave]

Lol, Shah nearly out caught short extra from a forward defensive

 

[Shri]

Dimi did hit Yuvraj for 5 sixes once. Wouldn't rest easy till we get him out.

 

[S Chanderpaul]

Pathetic stuff.

Mascarenhas needs to get himself out for the good of the team.

Since then he's done nothing of note.

He cant even get it away for singles.

 

[wpdavid]

Even 10 an over from here leaves us short of a par score.

Time to find something more interesting to do.

Shah is a pure waste of time...

 

[tooextracool]

Collingwood, Shah, Mascarenhas, Foster, Swann...

And the two of them who are at the crease are doing it so well. Lets face it, all of those players need to bat for about 40 balls, before they can actually start to play shots and quite frankly none of them have the time to do it.

The difference between England and the rest of the sides is that they dont have anyone like a Ruelof Van Der Merwe, Boucher or Razzaq.

 

[TT Boy]

**** this is poor.

Need at least 60 off the last 5.

 

[four_or_six]

I can never understand why bowlers don't get any credit and people just say it's rubbish batting.

 

[Shri]

Bad omen for the death overs?

 

[tooextracool]

Anyone who thinks India have bowled and fielded well today needs to get their head examined. WIth the possible exception of Harbhajan singh, the rest are lucky to be going at less than 10 an over.

 

[gvenkat]

Spoke too soon about Shah.. Playing well now..

 

[four_or_six]

Here's hoping that over gets us going. After watching India on Friday, I reckon we need to aim for 160 from here. Anything above that's a bonus.
