Warm-up matches

Spinners are bogging England down here. I'm happy that Vaughan is in the runs but here comes my usual kiss of death;

Wouldn't it be ironic if Vaughan gets his first ODI hundred for England in a game that doesn't count?

EDIT; LOL! That's unbelievable! Vaughan goes.
 
ah Hoggey takes the wickets of first Bell and then Vaughan so much for him not taking wickets in his last 7 games

Edit: Sloon just got KP caught by Hogg great captancy by Punter to put Tait straight back into the attack once both Bell & Vaughan fell

It seems KP is having bad days in Windies so far.. If i remember right, he didn't play well in last warmup game also... Have to see whether he regains his form in real series. There were many expectations on him, if he fails, it wud be a big disappointment.
 
13.6 Pathan to Lara, OUT
BC Lara c & b Pathan 22 (35b 4x4 0x6) SR: 62.85 soft dismissal! well fortunes have changed for Pathan! pitched outside off, Lara gets forward,the ball suddenly stops on him, plays it too early and lobs it straight to Pathan who catches it low

13.5 Pathan to Lara, no run
13.4 Pathan to Sarwan, 1 run
13.4 Pathan to Sarwan, 1 wide
13.3 Pathan to Sarwan, no run, loosener, Pathan gets away with it, bowls it full and wide outside off, Sarwan for some reason lets it go
13.3 Pathan to Sarwan, 1 wide, and another...hmm... wide outside off again
13.3 Pathan to Sarwan, 1 wide, that was a mess! Pathan loses control over it completely, spraying it wide of off stump, so wide that Dhoni had to fling himself to his right
13.2 Pathan to Sarwan, no run, builds up a bit more pace this time, ball moves in after pitching, left alone
13.1 Pathan to Sarwan, no run, warm-up delivery outside off, very little pace as well, Sarwan cuts away from his body, places it towards cover



Pathan's bowling absolute crap but manages to get Lara's wicket. Irony?
 
13.4 Pathan to Sarwan, 1 wide, Pathan gets his radar wrong again, wide outside off stump, he is clearly struggling here

With Zaheer,Sreesanth and Agarkar doing well, i can see only less chances for Pathan against the quality teams. Its not just becos Pathan is not impressive, but other bowlers are doing better than him!

Well, Munaf got Sarwan too in very next over. Indian bowlers are having great time so far... 4 wickets gone in first 15 Overs :cool:

Has Pathan started to seriously think that he is a batting-allrounder ?
He is bowling absolute crap at around 100-110kph, much worse that what I saw him bowling the last time when he was bowling around 130.

Meanwhile Munaf gets another one, 56-5 now.
I think its time we keep Irfan out of the XI for the World Cup.
The others will have to bowl really badly for him to get a look in.

With both Munaf and Sreesanth bowling fabulously well, we can now afford to drop Irfan.

Irfan actually is bowling those loopy BLIC 2005 deliveries now.
 
Well Pathan gets two more, and the Windies are stuttering badly. Pathan's still having really bad control, but he's getting lucky!
 
I wish I could find out what thew hell is going on in the Pak and SA game.
 
The Windies are 62/8 now.
Crap batting, really poor batting apart from Lara and Sarwan.
Would be a worry especially since they are just 2 days away from their first big World Cup game versus Pakistan.

Munaf has maintained a really steady length and line.
 
Freddie idiotically throws his wicket again,i know it doens't matter now but fredde has gone back to his old self with the bat and apart from a couple of starts and a good knock against New Zealand he was poor in the CBS. Come on JD shove it up the Aussies
 
Calm down Joe, this match is as meaningless as a pair of pants on Paris Hilton.
 
England are collapsing. They're going back to what they were before. This is just crap,should give them the kick up the arse they need to spank New Zealand though. Come on England we're not out of it yet.
