*Official* T20 and ODI matches

[flibbertyjibber]

Makes sense for us to chase, India's strength is their batting. Their bowling has self destructed so often it might not matter what they set.

Like Cook being diplomatic saying it is hard to defend there later on. Why not just say we fancy their bowling.

Seems like anderson will eat us alive on this pitch

He got one!!!! Rahane out

 

[Howe_zat]

Swiiiing!

Jimmy could have fun here.

Edit: And next ball, he's got him. Nice.

 

[Furball]

With the new ODI regulations that are due to come in, England should just pick Anderson as a new ball bowler and aim to have him bowled out by the 30 over mark.

And he gets Rahane. What a ***y beast he is.

 

[Jacknife]

Just called that, edged first slip, after the first ball you could see if he got one on the right line he would be dangerous.

 

[MW1304]

Dravid key on this wicket. He's in for a good score on this one, I reckon.

Kind of expected Rahane to be alright too, considering his FC record.

 

[Furball]

What does Dravid need to do to end up with a 40 average in ODIs?

 

[NasserFan207]

This could get ugly...

 

[Jacknife]

Thought they may have gone with Broad and saved Bres and dIrtbag for later.

I reckon Broads full length outswingers would have caused real problems on this pitch.

 

[Howe_zat]

Bresnan's traditional legside wide in the first over comes up. This is good though, getting some swing and Parthiv looks rooted to the spot.

 

[Burgey]

Dravid in early?

Quelle surprisement.

 

[MW1304]

Swing wearing off already. Damn white ball.

 

[Howe_zat]

What does Dravid need to do to end up with a 40 average in ODIs?

Haha, amusingly he needs 201*.

 

[Jacknife]

Lovely stuff so far from Jimmy.

Awsome stuff again from Jimmy, great fielding.

 

[Z-Man]

:o Beauty.

 

[Spark]

Oh dear.

 

[MW1304]

No 201* today, then. Great fielding.

 

[Spark]

Sold down the river, there. Never even close to a run.

 

[Uppercut]

Village stuff from Dravid.

 

[Howe_zat]

Cracking throw. I wouldn't hit it to Anderson and take on the arm, but that's what pressure does I guess.
