Lol, man why are you blaming Prince?

It ain't easy batting out there, Prince has done well. Fair enough he got a let off by the umpire, but still.

Definitely has done well. I'm just pissed at the bastard for still being there.

(Very good innings from Prince tbh. I'm just in the bitch mode right now. We need this win.)

Man Prince always seems to make scratchy runs. But he`s still out there to his credit.

As much as I love Sreesanth`s aggression, it`s great to see his respect.

 

[Langeveldt]

Get off your high horses. It was very well deserved. Bad decision, but guess what? That happens with everyone.

Very nice 50 under pressure.

Yeah, what goes around comes around.. I bet by this time next year he would have made up for it by being dismissed when he didn't edge it.. Non walking is the way to go

1 more over left after this maybe. Give it to Kumble?

Aren't there 11 overs left.

 

[silentstriker]

Aren't there 11 overs left.

Only six minutes left till the scheduled end of play I think.

No, 40 mins according to Cricinfo.

 

[adharcric]

Dravid just told his fielders that they need to get two overs in.

 

[adharcric]

Come on Sreesanth, pick up one more in the last over. Come on boy!

 

[silentstriker]

Last over of the day.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Arghh, the Sreesanth avatars are driving me crazy. I usually recognise a member on thir avatar, but now everyone's got Sreesanth, and I don't know who's who.

 

[silentstriker]

That's the day. 70% chance of India win, 30% chance of SA win.

 

[adharcric]

That's messed. Sreesanth got robbed by Harper. Damn it.
Kumble needs to step up tomorrow. He's our strike bowler but he hasn't done anything yet.
Time to sleep and wake up in the middle of the afternoon again ...

 

[Dravid]

Hours of play: 10.00 start, Lunch 12.30-13.10, Tea 15.30-15.50, Close 18.30

wtf?

CricInfo is always over it seems.

Sreesanth is still a good enough sport to shake Prince's hand when he got his half century.

Good stuff.

Haven't seen any of it, but it comes across like Sreesanth plays the game as fun rather than deadly serious - would that be fair to say?

I think he gets carried away a lot. He was taunting some players, which was unnecessary. Basically he is like Nel, except shorter and darker.

we don't know if he was giving as good as he(or rather the indians) got, do we? he seems to have the natural aggro to do that, so he is using it, hopefully he won't go overboard and say something really offensively abusive....he is still young and immature and the senior cricketers probably need to have an eye on him....

 

[Turbinator]

I think we're making a big deal out of this... He's a young energetic cricketer who plays with lots of intensity and passion! Proof you ask... The way he congratulated Prince for his half century. This shows he has respect for the players but he is not going to back down and will continue playing agressively.

 

[PhoenixFire]

He's a lot better than VRV Singh, who looks like he doesn't really want to be there. It's good to see a young cricketer so enthusiastic about the game.
