*Official* T20 and ODI matches

[Furball]

Suresh Raina has bowled 3 overs for 6 runs.

No, that's not a typo.

4 overs for 7 runs now.

wtf.

 

[Cevno]

You still have Dhoni, Raina and Kohli; that's 3 more ODI standard batsmen than England have.

Same applies to us and Zaheer with regards to the test series then.

 

[Jacknife]

Clueless ****s against spin.

 

[superkingdave]

Ravi putting the pressure on Bresnan here. 2 off his last 10 balls

 

[Furball]

Bopara seems to be banking on misfields to get runs here.

 

[Outswinger@Pace]

Indian and English fans ought to stop giving excuses. Missing a key player or two does not fly with me.

If you lose, man up and take it on the chin. It doesn't take Einstein to figure out that these young English "batsmen" on display today are beneath club-level in playing the turning ball. Dire stuff!

 

[Jacknife]

Ravi again seems unable to hit the ball out of the middle of his bat, you can tell it's putting pressure on Bres.

 

[Cevno]

The fielding within the circle has been very good for India today.

 

[grecian]

Don't think india were a guarantee to walk it by any means but were certainly on top at the time and the momentum was with India.

And missing Morgan is hardly a excuse considering who India are missing and have missed throughout the series.

How is any of what I posted against what you just said? I just said all teams gets breaks, good and bad.

Honestly, gimp is very right about you.

 

[simsini]

Is Bopara doing his 'leave us 10 the get off of the last over' routine again?

Maybe that wasn't enough. Perhaps 15 would make it more interesting this time.

 

[Jacknife]

England could do with a decent over soon. don't want o leave it till the last overs.
Ravi gets a edged 4.

 

[Outswinger@Pace]

Good, timely shot...That's more like it.

Whoever wins this match, it'll go right down the wire. That's always great!

You said "not sure where luck is", discounting it completely in terms of the timing the rain came in that match. Yes all team get breaks,good and bad but the point being made was that the breaks haven't gone for India this series. That is all.

Yes they are to blame for most themselves, but can't just completely discount it and say it had no effect at all.

You make your own luck. India can hardly act suprised at the number of injuries they've had given the condition most of them are in.

and on one of them not getting run out.

Shame someone didn't have a word with Stokes and just tell him to bat out Ashwin. He can hit the others about, but needs a bit of experience to handle Ashwin properly. Still he'll learn and get better as the nerves subside.

Meh, if Bop sees us through, I'll be happy with his performance, I'm all about the win.

 

[Cevno]

Yeah edited some of that in.

But can't really blame conditioning for most of the injuries tbf. For example Rohit broke his bone and Gambhir got concussed.

And were more talking about Rain coming when India had the momentum here.

 

[MW1304]

Half volleys not getting put away is one of the most infuriating things.

Good match still.

 

[Cevno]

Need a quick wicket or 2.

 

[Outswinger@Pace]

Shastri and Ganguly have a fair point. Get the mid-on up and invite them to go over the top. Don't think they will and that's a good chance to squeeze in some dot balls.
