Singh bling Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 England beat NZ in a warm up game few days back in a turning Eden Gardens wicket. This WT20 is really a roller coaster ride with anybody capable of beating anyone on the day.Warm up matches don't count , teams don't take them seriously. India did pretty well in warm up matches in 2009 but lost badly when needed Link to comment

I am not sure if we utilized that advantage well last night. Link to comment

I am not sure if we utilized that advantage well last night.When No.1 spinner of world has figure of 1-32 on wicket where baby spinners of NZ were going 4-11, 3-18 then its clear we did not utlise that adavntage diehardpacer 1 Link to comment

It was not that bowling long hops. Jaddu bowled a lot of wides though. Not that it cost us the game, but he could have done a bit better. Link to comment

Not that it cost us the game, but he could have done a bit better.Yes they took chances but Ashwin too got wicket on 2nd ball , but after that he was unable to get any wicket and went for 26 runs ,so overall it was not good bowling by Ashwin.I don't think anytime I saw batsmen uncomfortable against Ashwin as Indian batsmen were looking against NZ spinners Link to comment
bangladeshifan Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 @viper. You gotta give credit to NZ as well. But it was not a suitable T20 pitch to say the least. Hope we get a better pitch tomorrow Link to comment

adi B Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Nah,we just need to win our next 3 games.Pakistan game has come just at the right time (just like in wt20 2012 where we were winless for 7 consecutive super 8 matches) ,need to up our game and then continue with the momentum .If we win 3 ,we'll definitely go through because I am sure 3 teams wont be tied at 3 wins each ,even with this win I dont think nzl have guaranteed a place in the semis ,they might easily lose to pak or even Bangladesh lol. Just to be on the safe side,we need to win big against Bangladesh Link to comment
The Realist Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 If only had a real coach with actual coaching credentials would feel more confident as could at least try to learn from the failings and put in place some strategies. However Cheerleader Shastri is just embarrassing at every level. tweaker, asterix, Switchblade and 1 other 4 Link to comment

WC2011INDIA Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Sorry but this tournament is over for us. I am sure one of the matches will be rained out or we lose 1. If India is out, I want one of SA or NZ to win the tournament. diehardpacer 1 Link to comment
Adi_91 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 hahah ... make more turning pitches please Sure. Anyway your team doesn't have any quality spinners. So how about your batsmen handling NZ spinners in a wicket like in Nagpur? Ready? Link to comment
