philcric Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 1st session of the test match and India already seem to be way behind in the game. Losing the captain, losing the toss, dropping a catch off the first ball of the match, good batting wicket, 2 aggressive well set batsmen at the crease, high RR and already a sizeable total for loss of just 1 wicket. The replacement captain seems a misfit for the role and the situation, and there is clearly lack of energy in the field. Really need some magic from someone here. Umesh, Bhuvi, Jaddu, Ash, Kuldeep .. someone has to really stand up for us today and make a stellar contribution. I don't think we can get back in this game if we are really struggling by the end of today's play. We have comeback many times from these situations in the last 2 years, but this match is different. It's the last game of the long season, the pressure of series scoreline (even a draw wouldn't suffice to get the trophy), fatigue from the long season, having to bat under huge 1st innings scoreboard pressure time and again, not having your talismanic captain, our best bowler totally out of form.
CG Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 No magic required just keep it tight and build pressure.Aussie batting lineup can crumble under pressure.We went for magic balls in first session.Pitch is flat we need to stay in the game. The Dark Horse 1
kubrickian Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Yeah need to string together a passage of 6-7 overs without giving too many runs. But Ashwin, Umesh seem to lack that control. Need to operate with Jadeja, Bhuvi and Kuldeep and see what happens.
philcric Posted March 26, 2017 Author Posted March 26, 2017 Fcuk. In deep trouble again. Need a special innings here from someone.
coffee_rules Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Jaddu and Bhuvi to play a blinders tomorrow.
