13 Feb - India vs Australia - Warmup

[AngryPixel]

IMO spinners have bowled very well but they were unlucky. Marginal lbw shouts, edges to thirdman and fine leg for 4
I think Dhoni should go on ultra aggressive field now. Just call all the fielders in and give spinners a chance

Bhogle's got his money on Pak to win it all - can't shut up about them

 

[AngryPixel]

Hahaha... And he was going on and on about luminous flux

----------

I'm pretty satisfied by the broadcast of this match after that shitty ten sports broadcast of Ind-SA series

----------

Piyush you little beauty .... Amazing bowling. India have too many choices in spin department. all of them are bowling so well.

Chawla totally foxed Clarke there.. good variation, Its going to be very tough choice between Chawla and Ashwin.

So India must pick 1 of Raina/Yuvraj and Chawla/Ashwin.

I'm wondering, why the fearsome tweak this pie-chucker is bowling when we have 3 specialist spinners

I'm wondering, why the cricket this pie-chucker is bowling when we have 3 specialist spinners

Because, the 'pie chucker' will be used very much during the tournament and has the ability to take wickets.

 

[mohit_dude10]

Yuvraj is bowling quite well actually, but the fielding has been really below the Indian standards itself, far too many mis-fields. Good thing from this match is surely Chawla's bowling. He has been troubling Ponting through out.

 

[AngryPixel]

But we got a game to win here... WE can have pie-chucker bowling to the tail
On the other hand, Piyush is looking sensational. I'm just worried that he delivers form pretty wide of the crease. So it would be hard for him to get lbws. He should bowl from closer to the stumps

----------

Bear is clueless against spin. He's poking his bat blindly in hope that it would find the ball

 

[mohit_dude10]

White had to go for it, he was looking totally out of sorts and he is out. India are actually right back in the match. If they could pick 1 more they could trigger a collapse. Australia middle order is really succumbing to spinners bar Ponting.

 

[AngryPixel]

Ponting isnt too comfortable either. He's got lucky a lot of time in this inning

----------

Oh boy... Now aussies are choking

 

[mohit_dude10]

And there goes Dussey Chawla really turning it on. He has been really difficult to face, probably because of the assistance from pitch. He has grabbed up his opportunity with both hands.

But he has played spinners far better than others, He has played some magnificent shots too. A Danger for other teams when Ponting and Lee are in form.

 

[Gaurav_7]

That 'P2' has been there all the time. Powerplay 2 is a bit too long!

 

[AngryPixel]

I think last ball was a inside edge... Curse you Dhoni... Punter would have been gone.. And Yuvi's throw was wayward too. He could have got Callum

 

[mohit_dude10]

Selectors will be treated like Gods now They were criticized a lot by many of 'em for Picking chawla out of no where and he turns out to be the most dangerous in spinning tracks. (Too early to say that i know)

 

[Aoun13]

Australia is playing like an idiot. Chawala is surely bowling well but Aussies just look too vulnerable to the spin. Don't know what will happen to them against Sri Lanka and Pakistan in Sri lanka where pitches are more spin friendly.
