***Official*** England in India

[GIMH]

Ouch

Sehwag now has more runs in this innings than he managed to get in the entire series in England.

 

[Senile Sentry]

Haha, Sehwag. Looking so comfy right now.

Haven't seen a single delivery hit 130 so far. I know it's hot and all, but ffs it's the first session.

The temperature is about 24 degrees. That's hot?

 

[Spark]

It's ridiculous how Sehwag is only really hitting the bad balls but still can afford to hit a boundary or two pretty much every over.

Obv A lot of it is down to Sehwag being Sehwag and not everyone would've cashed in to the extent of 50 of 45 but the English pacers not helping themselves at all.

This is trash bowling even if they were bowling at Durban.

Well, if they were on a greentop the wide half-volleys would be actually much more dangerous to play at (though absolutely no threat to the stumps), but they've had three warmups ffs. They should know that these are pies.

 

[Contra]

amazing this guy.. not even trying

 

[Daemon]

he's just toying with them now

 

[Contra]

VIRU!

 

[Cabinet96]

Urghh.

 

[Turbinator]

Yes boy! C'mon, make it count now. Destroy them.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Sehwag has done this well so far, just been sensible and picked off the bad balls of which there have been way too many. Now he is just taking the piss. Ton up before lunch?

 

[hazsa19]

how long ago do you think they regretted the omission of Monty?

 

[Bahnz]

**** off you pie chucker.

 

[Daemon]

Is it that hard to get just half of your deliveries short of a good length on the stumps?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well if the ball doesn't start reversing soon then this could be carnage today. What is the most runs scored in a day?

 

[Neil Pickup]

Time for Prior to stand up to Bresnan?

588/6, England v India, OT, 1936

 

[Teja.]

Sehwag of Timbo 32 runs in 19 balls @ 168.42.

 

[TT Boy]

90 minutes play and only 19 overs bowled. ****ing joke.

Only interesting thing about this game today is whether Sehwag can hit a hundred before lunch and whether he can hit 300 in a day.

 

[Spark]

Conceding 100 in less than 20 overs on the first day is, more or less, embarrassing.

 

[Daemon]

Fmd, can't imagine what's going to happen to us when Trott and Cook get stuck in.
