England In India - October 2011/12

[Themer]

The noise from the bat that can be seen through a nick

You can see sound? Weird.

I want whatever he's on.

I want whatever he's on.

It is called a pair of eyes which let you see if the ball has actually been nicked.

Wonder why sreeshanth is not bowling....match slipping away.

 

[SaiSrini]

Bye bye India. See you at Edgbaston where you face a 2-0 deficit. Idiotic game! This series is as good as lost.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

India's bowlers have been toothless again, and given their nature, when they aren't brilliant they are awful. They need to learn how to keep things tight if things aren't clicking for them. Sure they can win us matches with a session or spell, but those good spells are outweighed by the bad ones which are equally capable of losing us games.

And the pitch has evened out a bit too.

But credit where credit is due. Bell and KP have batter superbly.

Over-pessimistic for me. Great knocks by KP and Bell though.
On another note CMJ, talking about replacements for Trott, mentioned Taylor and Hildreth. Discussion now on then legality of greasing the bat...
I need split screen cricket and F1.

Edit: apparently Strauss's massive edge wasn't picked up by hotspot. Should have reviewed it rather than walked

Dhoni is an aweful and defensive captain. Sree is your best bet to get a wicket along with Ishant and he does not even get to bowl. Praveen and Bhajji bowl in tandem and they have been as expensive as anyone. Hard to understand what his tactics are.

Appalling. Atrocious cricket by us to give away a game which we should have just owned the English side.

 

[barmyarmy]

And 100 for Bell. Massive.

So English commentators are sure Lax had cheated?

Naa, it was picked up.

 

[darthlewis1]

Still no third man for Bell? despite getting around 6-7 fours were third man would've been. Poor captaincy by Dhoni.

 

[SaiSrini]

For all those people clamoring for Sreesanth as if he is going to come in and roll over England, watch him probably getting massacred here. The guy is lucky. His personality has helped him fool people into thinking that he is some great bowler who will turn things around. Even if he picks up wickets here after I say this, I will stand by my statement.

Dhoni is losing the match for us.

 

[Adarsh]

Awful from India. Just awful. Have thrown the game away to England, who are gonna get some 350odd lead and bowl India out. Pah. This is a game where we should've owned England, and gave it away twice.

 

[SaiSrini]

Hope Dhoni is banned next game. Idiot! Spoiled the game completely for India.

 

[teamindia]

Runs leaking everywhere. Bad fielding from Shri
