***Official*** England in India

[Barney Rubble]

Jimmy Anderson takes an absolute wonder-catch.

 

[TT Boy]

Maybe I spoke to soon, Kaif's out, great catch Anderson.

 

[steds]

India.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Dean Jones going all Lord of the Rings on us - "Eleven guys working together can move mountains!!"

EDIT: And now...." Words cannot describe how good a catch that was."

How fast was Irfan Pathan today? An article in Times Of India said he was bowling a lot faster with the white Kookaburra and even hit 138 a few times.

 

[steds]

Hang on. Gareth Batty is playing?!?!

Consistently high 70s.

Batty bowling... ugh... Batty bowling a no-ball...


How many of the England A squad that were in WI have played in this ODI series now?

Dean Jones, Michael Atherton and David Gower were constantly pushing for his inclusion, saying that this is India, there are square turners and he was picked just for that. However, you have a point– this bloke is a reason why England should play to their strengths with four seamers.

Six? Anderson, Shah, Solanki, Batty, Mahmood and Ali.

If picking Batty wasn't already a stupid idea then him pushing for it should have made it a dumb move.

Nnanden, it was plumb not too high whatsoever.

It was most definatly high. It was above the kneeroll.

 

[alternative]

Raina is gone.. Anderson picks up one..

 

[silentstriker]

Another one down! Yuvraj Singh! Two in one over now.

Can England win it?

If India are in their panic-slog mode (ala Mumbai), they can. But India still the favorites here.

Hmm, I kinda wanted Yuvraj to get his fifty for the fantasy team - but I do have Anderson in my side so...

 

[Scaly piscine]

England are being destroyed by them, a far better side.

I'd quit if I were you.

England would destroy India A in England as well.

England need a hell of a lot of bad things to happen to pick Gareth Batty, India win lots of games and they go and pick AA...
