India in England/Ireland/Scotland

whoa evasive skillz by Aleem Dar

hahaha they HotSpotted it.

I got immense, slightly perverse pleasure from Dhoni smacking that ball towards Aleem Dar....

Anyone else want to repeat that again?

Cough* Repeat what *Cough.

Thats just a stupid shot. Panesar gifted another wicket.

Dhoni has no choice, he has to go for it.

Do you have something seriously wrong with Panesar? Or England for that matter

187 ao. not bad.

Not really. I'm kinda going for India though. I'm pretty neutral. Nothing against Panesar as a person, he's just always bowling defensive. Boring to watch.

I think India can defend it but their bowlers are going to have to really put pressure on. I still rekon England are due a bad game with the bat. If they polish this target off effectively i'll defiantly have to praise their batting for staying consistent.

 

[Adarsh]

Oh well. We did it in 1983, we can do it again !!

 

[irottev]

It'd be a shame for such an even series to end in a thrashing. I hope it's close.

 

[Adarsh]

Well, all eyes on Zaheer now. He's one of the guys who can get real fired up, and bowl with aggresion, and take wickets. RP Singh will do well to chip in. The spinners need to be brought on during the powerplay. Especially Powar.

England look all set for a series win.
Well done to them !
They deserve it. Fred was awesome, though lucky to get Tendulkar who again looked set.

India can hold their heads high after this tour.
They won the test series and have done well to take this series to the deciding game after being 3-1 down.

Not finishing England off at Old Trafford after having them at 114/7 will come back to haunt India.

Prior seems to have got luck with that LBW appeal against Zaheer.
Aleem Dar again spots an inside edge when there was not one.

 

[Cricketman]

a couple of plums turned down.
Dar, dar, dar, dar dar...

England are already on 10 runs without any batsmen having scored any run.

Wright is out for a duck!

 

[angryangy]

Oh nice start. Lots of balls hitting the pad. One there did look plumb from front on, but the batsman was massively out of his ground. Hard to give.

And two wickets. Lots of frailties in the minds of the England batsmen to play on at the moment. This game is not over.

lol well that experiment failed miserably..
