Haha, Gavaskar opening the bowling. It's nice to hear from him when he isn't being a douche. I like him justifying his bowling average of 206 .

I've heard and read about all that, but I've never seen a video of him bowling. Rob?


EDIT: Dropped! OH FFS!!!

 

[straw man]

phew - heh thanks Kohli

 

[Howsie]

Cheers Kohli, Raina's catch all day.

 

[shankar]

Damn it Zaheer deserved that.

 

[Shri]

****ing Kohli. Get ****ed.

Guptill gets past 20. Going to be a long day.

what an awesome spell by zak, kholi owes him one.

Commentators need to stop using the word 'average' to describe 'well below average'.

But you might hurt their feelings

Commentators - "30 is the score where you start to really feel in"

30 is the score where you really start to get nervous as a NZ fan.

Guptill gets past 20. Going to be a long day.

Not necessarily. With Guppy, there's always a strong chance of him randomly doing something incredibly stupid.

He did play far more sensibly in WI, but it's too soon to say whether he's actually changed.

30 is the score where you really start to get nervous as a NZ fan.

Depressingly true.

Zaheer is bowling beautifully. I hope this is his last over.

 

[straw man]

Shot Guptill. Such a contrast to the old days when he was simply incapable of keeping a pull/hook down.

Shot Guptill again!

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Thaaat's it Guptill

Bless Yadav and his leg-stump half volleys.

 

[BeeGee]

Zaheer is bowling beautifully.

In stark contrast, Yadav is bowling crap.

 

[straw man]

Oh noes

 

[Howsie]

Bit high no?

 

[BeeGee]

Dubious decision, that one.
