England In India - October 2011/12

[Haarithan]

Andrew 'fail' Strauss. Praveen finally gets a wicket - deserves it badly.

 

[lewissaffin]

Strauss never looked terribly fluent there, unfortunately

India need to get Matt Prior out before they can think about skittling England, I feel.

----------

What an over this has turned out to be, Morgan didn't look comfortable and Kumar is bowling beautifully.

Sky having problems too

 

[Haarithan]

Okay just play aggressively and get to around 230. Will do nicely.

 

[lewissaffin]

England are 16-3 since lunch. Let's just bat sensibly and battle through this stage - we're not Sri Lanka

 

[Aussie Team]

Morgan has more power than any other player and his natural talent is to be aggressive; if he lost that he wouldn't score runs.

Come on sreesanth..!!
Kill the tail now..~!!!

 

[deepuparayil]

WOW!!!

What a terrific ball that was.

Look at the difference addition of Sreesanth to our bowling unit made.


Where is Sai who said Sreesanth should not bowl again until the new ball.

 

[Gurjot95]

Sree, you beauty.

 

[lewissaffin]

The Indians have bowled brilliantly but the pitch and conditions have both played their part. We have a real task on our hands now.

 

[Haarithan]

Hit & giggle cricket please. That's the only way to counter attack this incredibly legendary spell of hostile bowling by India.
"It's a better toss to lose given the pitch evens out as time progresses" - Andrew Strauss.

 

[lewissaffin]

Beautiful seam bowling. This is torturous.

 

[SaiSrini]

Come again, will you? Next to outstanding is all I can say of Sreesanth's current bowling spell. Bell seems clueless upon facing him.

I thought batting will get easier in session two. So far, I am being proved wrong so badly. Not that I complaining.

 

[Gurjot95]

Bowlers are doing marvellous job considering they are without Zaheer. They are playing like true champions!

 

[SaiSrini]

WOW!!!

What a terrific ball that was.

Look at the difference addition of Sreesanth to our bowling unit made.

Where is Sai who said Sreesanth should not bowl again until the new ball.

Ok ok I give that to you. I was wrong about Sree.

 

[Sureshot]

So when an English man does it, its fine but when an Indian does it than he should be ashamed of himself? You have nailed it because that's what has been happening out there from many years.

Before I dismiss this as baiting, where did he say it was okay for Broad (or any Englishman) to do it?

Still not convinced by Morgan in Tests. If we can work our way up to 200 it's something to play with. below 150 and I think we'll be out of the game before it's even started.
