Match #8- India vs Ireland (D)- Nassau County Cricket Stadium, New York- June 5th-- Group A

[King Kane]

This is obviously a win toss & bowl wicket.

Then hope it rains when it is your turn to bat.,

 

[number11]

Another wicket.
This is a comical pitch. My old school had better pitches. #nostalgia

 

[FBU]

5.5 overs left for the seamers and 3 wickets to get..

They had to ruin it with 5 overs left and Axar comes on. 2nd ball wicket.

 

[FBU]

Delany doing a great job. Ireland might get to 100..

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Delany playing an ATG knock here

 

[Arachnodouche]

****en "We Indians rule the world", typical Gujjugandya

 

[King Kane]

Some good late hitting from Delany, a shame he ran out of partners.

That total of 96 probably won't be enough but it was more than Ireland looked like getting when they were 8 wickets down for 50.

 

[honestbharani]

The pitch is one thing and probably understandable as wickets need time to settle down, esp. drop-in ones but the outfield is shocking. It shows that even if you can work miracles and get a stadium done in 4 or 5 months, crucial things like outfield and pitches need time to sort of knock-in.

??

And is the last reference to Pandya?

 

[Qlder]

Oh dear? Only 97 to chase and Sharma dropped at 2nd slip in first over

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Ireland have gone backwards since getting test status

 

[Pant Kameez]

Seems like Kohli is not in the mood for minnow bashing

 

[Qlder]

I don't know, they just got Kohli out for 1 off 5 balls

 

[King Kane]

Adair missed out on getting Rohit but he got Kohli.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Steve Smith in commentary appears way more relaxed than he is on the field.

 

[Shri]

winning shot for 6

 

[Silver Silva]

Rohit Sharma with the innings of the tournament so far , just a different beast when he is an opener , one of the best bad wicket players

He should have been out for 2 off 6 balls. Dropped at 2nd slip that went for 4

Still have to score the runs when you got the chance

 

[chris.hinton]

Ireland should have got over 100. It's really poor batting at least make India think about the win
