Tour Matches

wtf India. Pretty sure if we were a team in the CC we'd be in div 2 at the rate we're going

 

[GIMH]

And suddenly, Bopara's chance of scoring runs increases

Northants carrying on where the English lower/middle order left off it seems.

Indian bowlers as well apparently.

These tour matches have been entertainment of the highest quality. Couldn't have asked for any more tbh.

 

[G.I.Joe]

Tbf he does average about 70 in FC cricket recently doesn't he?

Yeah. More importantly, Jono's boy was a waste of space in the West Indies. I can see Cevno's point about Badrinath being shafted, but then that only means there are two players deserving of a shout ahead of Kohli.

PLEASE don't let Khan be injured again FFS

 

[G.I.Joe]

Would rather he got injured now than pull off the field one session into an effing Test match, tbh.

I'm going to Edgbaston day 1 and I want to see a competition

Now we know how NZ fans felt

May as well send him home if he can't get through more than 3 overs today. Won't be fit for 4th test and do the one dayers really matter that much?

To the BCCI probably more than tests.

Zaheer looks injured again. NDTV article stating he bowled 3 overs and left for change room and yet to be seen. Dude just can't get fit. Its going to be a long couple of test matches without Zaheer!

Ok, we can win the test series 4-0 and become clear number 1's and you can win the one day series as we won't care about it if we do get to the top in tests.

Being serious though I am thinking more about Zaheer, the guy is injured and needs to get fit so trying to strain himself in a few one dayers isn't really going to help him long term.

You are correct. If he is truly injured he will be going home. I don't understand why he is in the one day team in the first place.

 

[Cevno]

Some quick wickets coming for Mishra and Munaf.

 

[Jacknife]

The Indian seamers have been really expensive, going at over 5 rpo is not acceptable for a international bowler against a Div 2 batting side. Northants going at over 4.5 a over is hilarious though.

Sreesanth 13-1-69-1

Hero.

 

[MW1304]

...aaand finally India rip through Northants' joke lineup.

 

[Daemon]

The only two guys who are decent batsmen got 100s. Unfortunately England bat till about 9 so that's not very encouraging
