haha Flintoff messed with the wrong guy and Stuart Broad paid for it.

Ganguly used to be the guy whom you should not mess with. Now Yuvraj looks like taking that mantle. He gives you back in full measure if you mess with him and we saw that. Make him the captain man. He is the Ganguly-type captain and India will do well under him.

well england have to go for it from baal one orthe rate will go thru the roof..

being knocked out already they have no excuse not to throw bat at the ball

 

[Master Khan]

I think Yuvraj got his revenge for getting hit 5 sixes in a over against England
But Man that was Great stuff ..plus it was against S.broad lol

 

[manee]

I have to say that India must attack because if they skittle England for under 140, then their match against South Africa will surely be a win & go through and lose & go home match due to the net run rate.

Good start from Sreesanth, he is hitting good lines and lengths, at this point, no more is needed. England trying the same tactic as India with saving till the latter overs to explode.

India cannot be complacent, England are just about still in this one.

Yeah thats what i was saying all these players like Yuvraj,Bhajji,Zaheer got the aggression during Ganguly's captaincy.

Amazing how suddenly all the Indians find twenty20 a lot more interesting...

We werent against it.It was BCCI.And now they are finding it more interesting and champions league is the result of that.

From the first wenty20 match that I watched, I have found it to be very interesting. It gives me lot of entertainment.

Oh, England is now starting to open up. Bring in Pathan. By the way, how did the pitch become so good for batting all of a sudden? We struggled against Pakistan but we smashed England today.

Very crucial knock from Sehwag today. As crucial as the Yuvraj one. Sehwag is lucky that he had someone like Yuvraj to finish off the innings well. Tendulkar didnt get such players much who could finish off the good work done by him.

 

[Eddie]

typical now that we are out we start playing aggrssive cricket..

we'll still probly loose by 30-40 though

 

[baburao]

This is 20-20 and we should not celebrate it till the last ball bowled.

 

[Leicester Fox]

England don't stand a chance, although it is quite similar to the world cup 07 v the Windies. Only this time I can enjoy watching Broads career get ruined

 

[SaiSrini]

Joginder instead of Pathan? Wierd. Would be hailed a masterstroke

OH no! A dropped catch. Throw this RP out. He is doing poorly in fielding.

Edit: Pathan gets that wicket. Go Pathan!

 

[Eddie]

is it me or does it look slippery out there..

 

[manee]

Irfan Pathan is bowling at good pace but the line is a bit too far outside off stump. With the field now back, sixes will be the key for England.

is it me or does it look slippery out there..

Seems very slippery out there to me, even the basic pick up near the leg side boundary was hard to do without falling over.

 

[SaiSrini]

Yuvraj drops a catch??? Man, thats not good stuff..

I think this match is still open. If Pietersen and Flintoff hit some telling blows, England have every chance of giving India tight finish.
