If India wins this last match,then they will win 5th series on trot.

Yus! Dhoni's average is now over 50 in ODI's :banana2 What a player.

Lol, you hated him just a week back .

@ scion_sid: We dont go to SL this month. We will be going there only in the month of September. After this series, we are going to have a two month break (its like GOLD!). Then we will play in Sri Lanka with NZ as the third team in a tri-series ODI tournament. After that, its the champions trophy.

Dhoni is in decent form atm. Nehra bowled pretty well. Karthick and Gambhir gave India a solid start just what India wanted. Great win.

Hopefully Sachin, Zaheer, Viru & Raina joins the squad with Ishant coming back to the form. The squad playing in Windies is just a 75% strength squad.

I am very eager to see Sachin playing. But I am having a feeling that he is doing these wantedly. i.e., if Sachin retires from cricket all of a sudden, many of his fans will go disheartened & some may not even accept that. Hence, I feel that, he is slowly dying away from the ODI scenarios & finally in some months, he might make an announcement to retire from ODIs & then finally from tests. There won't be much disappointments if his plan executes like that because, cricket fans have got used to see the Indian team winning without Sachin in the squad.

Oh well, it was just my 8th sense telling me. Seriously I wish to see India lifting the World Cup before Sachin disappears from the cricket. :upray For such a legend we have got, it is really a shame that we did not lift even a single World Cup during his era.

I didn't quite hate him, I was just generally pissed off with him.

The celebration from Ishant was priceless when he got the wicket of Gayle.

 

[Howsie]

What did he do?

Big wicket for India though, lets see if Morton can step up again.

 

[Amiya]

Great start for India. Ishant is bowling well. Nehra is bowling quite impressive and accurate.

Rohit Sharma continues to get his chances,even amidst consistent failures.
Great start for both India and Ishant.Getting Gayle so early,they've just improved their chances of winning this game.Man,this rain is just frustrating.Its coming down quite heavily.Seems there will be a long halt now.

Just went crazy. Starting roaring like a lion - Which wasn't a particularly pleasant slight.

 

[Leggie]

Match Abandoned. Grrr.

 

[sohum]

Well India win the series 2-1 courtesy of the rain gods. Now we've got almost a month break before we play more cricket. Good time for The Ashes!
