England In India - October 2011/12

Well India aren't exactly changing the perception that they can play T20 but not test cricket.
Let's give up on spin for now and just blast them out with the seamers.

 

[Gurjot95]

Especially with his team in all kinds of trouble. After all these years, thought he would've stood up to be counted for once.

You see how Tendulkar got out? He looked so much better than all other batsman

 

[Aalay]

Praveen Kumar ftw

 

[Haarithan]

Stuart Broad ftw!

 

[Manly]

It makes me think that the last 99 tons were all flukes.



(Anyone by now that doesn't know that I'm messing around needs shooting.)

 

[Aalay]

quoting from cricinfo : Sharda tells us there was "massive applause for Praveen as he departs for the entertainment, even the Barmy Army was chanting for him when he went after Swann."

Praveen Kumar ftw

LOL, just saw the Sharma replay. Never looked out. Good on the ump tho, just trying to put them out of their misery.

 

[Prithvi]

Gary Kirsten..... we miss you!

If only there was a system by which a batsman could ask for a video replay, perhaps with a ball-tracking programme........

 

[Prithvi]

Guess who's gonna get out now guys?
It'll be interesting to see Dhoni getting out!

You and Suresh Raina think very much alike. But such a thing wouldn't make sense, right?

England officially the No.1 Test cricket team in the world! Man, that sounds good, especially when I remember watching England in the early - mid nineties. Well done lads!

 

[barmyarmy]

Well done England.
Indian top 6 in this match: 179 (two innings)
Alastair Cook in this match: 294 (one innings)

Wasn't it India who protested about the DRS being used in this series? Not that it hasn't cost England from time to time as well - there have been at least two plumb LBWs that weren't given, together with an obvious (from a replay) no-ball that took a wicket. Still, doesn't matter now.

 

[Gurjot95]

England are now Number 1. Congrats. It was good till it lasted.

Yeah, blame the one who top scored in both innings and only player to get 50+ for India. Blame him because his fellow players didn't performed.
