***Official*** India in England 2014

[Maximas]

The point was that if they want to pick someone for Jadeja's holding role/all-round skills then Raina is the better choice, not that Raina should be picked as the main spinner ahead of the specialists in and around the sqaud

 

[vic_orthdox]

Yeah, but he's not.

 

[Maximas]

Yeah I don't really agree either

 

[91Jmay]

Jadeja's **** as a test match player, so is Raina. Pick neither.

 

[eroticfishcake]

Murali Vijay called in for Rohit
Still think Rahane should open

 

[Contra]

He just shouldn't be selected as a spinner ahead of Ojha, Mishra, Ashwin etc and shouldn't be selected as a batsman. Even at home there are better bowlers and better batsmen; it doesn't make sense to select him.

statistics suggest otherwise, but you are entitled to your opinion.

Also wtf Murali Vijay instead of Uthappa? Makes no sense.

Yup. Uthappa would have made more sense.

 

[eroticfishcake]

Uthappa injured as well

 

[GotSpin]

If there is a whitewash which there wont be but if there is I know a lot of Indians will be over the moon. My phone was bombarded yesterday with happy texts after just 1 win

Well yeah, if that's the only time India wins.

 

[Furball]

I wasn't aware that Suresh Raina actually spun the ball.

 

[hendrix]

Jadeja apparently does too.

 

[YorksLanka]

cricinfo reporting that Finn is marking his run up so will probably come in;expense of jordan do we reckon who seemed to have a'mare the other day?

 

[Energetic]

Good to see Finn back.

 

[harsh.ag]

Slips are cooking..

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Shami has really fallen away

 

[BoyBrumby]

This lad Rayudu's action is well dodgy.

 

[Hurricane]

Rayadu is awful.

 

[Hurricane]

Great appeal

 

[Hurricane]

Was that called wide? I accept it is stumped but it was very wide.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Why do teams bother picking any seamers against England?
