***Official*** New Zealand in Zimbabwe & Zimbabwe/New Zealand/India ODI Tri-Series

The indian team should be shot, when the bowlers perform, the batsmen dont, when the batsmen perform the bowlers dont. And which other team, can slip from 150 in 24 overs to freaking 277 all out. ****ing hell. Absolute ********

Pathan's bowled 3 overs for 25 runs, and that includes a bloody maiden first up. :-/ Nehra 6 overs for 40.

Seriously this is just hell.
 

Loony BoB

International Captain
100/0 (12.5 overs)

EDIT: Fleming's 50 off 51 balls. Astle on 46 off 34 right now, 106/0 at 14 overs.

EDIT: Quite surprised at the lack of spin being used, given Vettori did so well. You'd expect Singh, Sehwag and whoever else can bowl spin to be thrown in to attempt to make something out of all of this - but I guess while Ganguly has (stupidly) used his powerply, they'll have to continue getting smacked.

Cool down :)

We need to accept the fact that our team is not that good. Our ranking in the ODI table is well deserved.

PS I am assuming you are an Indian fan like myself.

Lack of power in the Indian attack shows up again. No devil in this pitch. I have no idea what the bowling plan is, but they've given Fleming and Astle ample room on both sides of the wicket.

Read it like a book. :p Final powerplay not being used and Super Sub Singh into the attack.

EDIT: And Sehwag at the other end. Oh Ganguly.

What a briliant skipper India have !!

After being hammered for 82 without loss in first ten overs he goes for another power play !! 30 more runs. I suppose he will be telling himself 6 an over is a great job :sleep:

With 112 being scored off 15 overs and all bowlers being taken to the cleaners, he cant think of doing something, anything, to slow down the game. Bring on Harbhajan for example. Just for a change and forget power play.

What a %&$*#@%$ !!

It is AT LEAST five overs too late....AT LEAST....and I think maybe too late to make any difference.

15.5 Harbhajan Singh to Fleming, no run, dropped! Tossed up and outside
the off, Fleming drives, beaten in the flight, the return catch
comes to Harbhajan who grasses the chance! That should have been
taken

Oh dear.

Relax everyone !! There is still lot of runs to be scored. Couple of wickets and we are back in the game. Its very easy to sit on the fence and do the talking. He cant do much if all his bowlers are tonked around.

Harbhajan for the 15th over (2 runs and a dropped catch) and Sehwag for the 16th.

Someone should tell that duffer from Kolkata the rules regarding power play :@

Are you serious or are you.......

Some of India's finest cricketing feats have come against the Aussies. India play above themselves against the Australians and seem to sink to the depths against the Kiwis of late.

Great innings Fleming. Now he can get some treatment for that knee, that was a nasty bruise!
