India v England 2008

[Cricketman]

Go home, England!

 

[irottev]

England might as well go home anyway. They're not in the same league as India. They'd save themselves some losses and most importantly possibly their lives.

The so called 'best bowling attack in odi cricket' couldn't defend a good total again.

Clueless how to end India's winning streak in the ongoing series, England captain Kevin Pietersen said it would require something special to stop the rampaging Indians."They played really well. Sehwag was sensational. And Sachin, I guess, scored his 90th fifty which is just amazing. At that rate, perhaps I guess, we fell 200 short," he quipped.

Guwahati and Delhi are far away from Mumbai, and I hope that terrorists aren't around these places. and till the Tests arrive, our Army will take control of it easily. Though these are tough times, decisions should be made well.

 

[sohum]

According to CNN-IBN, PTI has reported that England tour has been cancelled. Good decision.

 

[Akash00]

Yeah, England cricket team calls-off tour.

 

[grapedo]

I know it was the right decision but I can't help but think that the possibility of being the first team to lose an odi series 7-0 also had an affect on the decision.

 

[Pranav]

So, is the tour of England official cancelled? They wont play any more ODIs or tests?

There was a blast in Delhi as well.

Good that England have cancelled their tour.

 

[Pranav]

Its good that England cancelled their tour. As any other country would do so. Even India would do so if it happens while they touring a country. I feel a bit sad personally as I planned to see the 7th ODI in Delhi. Anyways, security is the main priority.

Rubbish. Security was the only concern and reason behind the cancellation. Stop making such bogus assumptions.

 

[Themer]

Woke up this morning and to my shock, and horror, I've seen the news about the multiple terrortist attacks and am very glad that the tour, the ODI part atleast has been cancelled. I was looking forward to the test but I really want them to leave now, their lives are alot more important than any silly sports event.

Attacks in India do seem to have gotten more frequent this year.
