*Official* Match 11 - India v England

[Spark]

Dunno what's wrong with Yuvi when he's up against the spinners. He use to pull even marginally short balls at will at one point.

It's Yardy. He's not a spinner. Don't try to work out why he can't get belted. We've all been trying for months, still haven't worked it out.

 

[Teja.]

Hatin' this.

India need to lose two wickets - and fast.

 

[cnerd123]

Lol, and that's why England were afraid of pitching it up.


Mix up the lengths, don't just stick to one.

 

[Spark]

"Half volley" isn't a lot better than "Half tracker", y'know...

This is some dreadful stuff.

I'm sure Yuvraj appreciates Strauss telling him what ball is going to be bowled - for the whole over.

 

[cnerd123]

We could really use Yusuf now. GTFO plz Yuvi?

 

[pup11]

Jeez... likes of Shahzad bowling absolute brainless tripe, can't believe he is the same guy who was bowling so well in Australia only a few weeks ago.

 

[Burgey]

Sigh, Yardy. The most unenjoyable cricketer to watch bar none.

Agreed, but he's bowled well here today for the most part

 

[silentstriker]

That's tosh. Yuvraj (as an example) might be a WC limited overs batsman, but he's crap in tests.

Hatin' this.

India need to lose two wickets - and fast.

Pathan next. Kohli to come in last ball and get run out.

 

[sirmallaya]

Great batting by Yuvraj this over! Getting his timing going

 

[The_roc]

After the Dutch scored 290, it was odds on that the Indians would get well over 300, It's been downhill ever since airmiles Anderson finished the first over.

Only hope is that KP scores a quick 150.

 

[cnerd123]

Fifty for Yuvi. Guess that seals Raina's fate for this WC.

Actually, we don't need Yusuf as long as these two can find two boundaries an over.

 

[silentstriker]

Ugh why oh why did you guys let him get a 50. Now he won't be dropped for six months.

 

[Spark]

Agreed, but he's bowled well here today for the most part

That's what makes it so bad.

 

[GIMH]

So you finally admit that he has no effect, and is essentially irrelevant in ODI's? Thanks for clearing that up.

You, SIR, are a straw man

 

[Daemon]

If I'm not wrong Yusuf usually scores mostly when India is chasing. Can't recall alot of times he bats well when we're batting first

 

[Woodster]

Still a score of 340 on here for India, need a strong finish here England for a bit of impetus going into the break. Still a very very good pitch to bat on though.

 

[cnerd123]

Finally MSD hangs back and wallops one.

300 up.

 

[Bun]

Yardy's bowlng is ****ing appaling to watch. Absolutely dog****.

Hiya wassup man?

 

[Spark]

There we go. At last.

 

[sirmallaya]

and with those few shots 330 is looking good.

350*

yuvraj!
