Beijing Blitzers Team Thread for 2009- "From Beijing to North Pole,We are the best at cricket"

[ansariaamir_leo]

If the changes are done then its good. We'll stick with Yusuf. Say we have 4 regular bowlers and one AR. Seems good enough. Watson did well in batting last time around in our 1st pre-season friendly. I don't know what average Mishra has to his batting. Any idea?

 

[Funknath]

Its Beijing Blitzers and not Beijing Bulldogs.

Mishra won't be an all rounder. I am pretty sure Watson and Yusuf must be having high batting average. So we can take Yusuf's batting over Watson. But we have to see our Mishra does in bowling department. Though he would have better average, on pitch like excellent conditions, it's better if we trust a pacer than spinner getting smashed

In our next match Vs India which is on Normal conditions we will test it out,

[B]Final Team Selected Vs India, Match 3[/B]

1. Yusuf Pathan
2. funknath
3. ansariaamir_leo
4. Bibu07
5. lumb-yorkshire
6. Shalin hitter
7. Shane Watson
8. Amit Mishra
9. Surendar
10.  Burnsy1
11. Spinksy

It will played on normal conditions and we will play @ 8.30 itself so that we can sort the team selection for main event if any miscalculations occur.

 

[ansariaamir_leo]

Sounds good.. Half hour to go to the match!!!

Thats some total... Mishra bowled fabulously... Hope we can chase it down...

Its real hard luck. We got the opening slots filled propely. I think we should stick to this lineup...

so close, just didn't quite make it

We were in the position of,

• 8 runs from 3 balls... Bibu cracked one FOUR!!!!
• 4 runs from 2 balls .. Single!
• 3 runs to win Or 2 to draw from 1 ball ... dot ball!!!

But we should be happy that our batters did an exceptional job. Aamir was quite good @ no 3 also. It was our bowling which let us down. Even myself was bowling at a crappy line that I was smashed by Sachin!

Except Mishra, we struggled in bowling.

Though we started off this T25/25 series against India with a great fashion, India bounced back exceptionally well. It was once again, Sachin Tendulkar winning the match for India.

Now, its up to the playing XI selections for tomorrow's game. Lets discuss...

 

[Burnsy1]

I blame Cricsim for the loss it always seems to be a dot ball last ball. anyways hopefully we'll be much better with the ball tommorow.

 

[ansariaamir_leo]

I think we will keep Mishra in. He's done well. Although its just a game but still we'll stick to him. Funky and Yusuf got a good start for us and maybe the openers we were looking for. What say?

 

[LUMB_YORKSHIRE]

yeh Funknath and Pathan got us off to a cracker, Mishra bowled some tidy stuff. just our pace bowlers dont seem to pick up wickets, hopefully tommorow they will find some form

 

[Funknath]

Lets use this line up for tomorrows match.

 

[ansariaamir_leo]

It would be interesting to see how we perform tomorrow...
We are nearing the VV... Lets get them guys!!!
