Commonwealth Bank Series (Australia, India, Sri Lanka)

[SaiSrini]

I dont want to get into these predictions thing. I hope India have a good match... It will be pretty hard to recover if we lose this one. Most of the CB series finals seems to have been won 2-0

 

[IloveGilly]

They always seem to lose wickets early. Even 220 or so would've been competitive enough.

gentlemen, what are your predictions ??

i predict tendulkar and uthappa will waste a couple of overs initially,
then uthappa will play a weird/rash shot and get out....!! then
after a couple of overs after a lot of struggling....tendulkar
will edge it towards gilly or get caught on the crease LBW .....
20/2 in 8 overs !

gambhir will get away with some flashy cuts over the fielders
head....while rohit sharma manages to elegantly edge it towards the slips/ gilly......
yuvi would then play a couple of cracking shots.....all the commentators
would be praising him about his stroke play...him finding form again
blah blah.....then a slower ball from pontings BF or bracken and he'll
spoon it towards mid-wicket/mid-on ! the score would be 61/4
in 15 overs with dhoni coming out to the crease.....!

gambhir and dhoni would play some test cricket and get to
know more about the pitch......!!

enough of the predictions.............!! am tired already !!

I wish you are not real "Jyotish"..lol..

Very well done Harbhajan! That was a brilliant performance

pathan has had a shoddy day at the field !!
i wont be surprised if goes back to the pavillion with a duck !!

one of the worst days for india in terms of ground fielding.......
plus,some of dhoni's field placings have been horrible !

india desperately need sachin to fire ! dont expect much
from uthappa

How negative? Uthappa is a capable player dude!

Uthappa is untested. And his technique could put him in trouble

Hope he does well though

 

[vaibhav mehta]

So we already started the Chase..Only 238 required..

S**t man, i want to get back to the old days of gavaskar. Atleast I could watch one batsman without fear. That lttle prod of uthappa got me jumping.:

 

[vaibhav mehta]

Nervy start from Sachin but I think opening gonna work today!..

 

[shan111]

lets hope you are right, Vai:upray

 

[SaiSrini]

Superb ball from Lee and gets a big smile from Sachin.....

They are looking to survive until 5-6 overs and then open up. Got to work today!

 

[svijay]

S**t man, i want to get back to the old days of gavaskar. Atleast I could watch one batsman without fear.

We aren't chasing 132 in 60 overs, though.

 

[angryangy]

We aren't chasing 132 in 60 overs, though.

And drawing isn't considered a successful outcome for India these days.

 

[vaibhav mehta]

We have lost some Matches in chasing of 160 in 60 overs with Fearless Gavasker..And Fearless Gavasker had scored wih strike rate of 30s.

 

[SaiSrini]

Is this the thread for the CB series currently going on in Australia?:

Not bad from India's openers so far. 30/0. Got to build on it with either of the openers starting to fire a bit now.

45/0 with Uthappa and Sachin in there!

Come on guys! Keep it going! But dont leave the charge too late. As the ball gets old, scoring is going to become extremely tough. They have Hogg who is a very wily ODI bowler.

I am happy with the start though. Sensible stuff. The run rate hasnt been too bad too. 4.5 runs is OK!

 

[vaibhav mehta]

195 needed from 40 overs with 10 wickets to remaining..Now it must be an easy job for India.
This power play will decide the course of the Match.
