mishra Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 How many matches has windies lost after scoring 300+. Allmost all recently. These guys dont know how to play odi game. Even during batting, it was clear that they were playing t20 Link to comment

Rohit isn't this bad TBH. the context is the same . you want players to make quickfire 40 s and 50 s and not run a ball 100 on flat decks Rohit is better than gayle rt now . but peak gayle with his bowling and hitting was a monster . didnt waste deliveries - either thrashed or got out . even now he has rejoined after long time . watch him in world cup . he is the Universe master Link to comment
Tibarn Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I googled and found this interesting article, do read https://www.thestatszone.com/analysing-englands-change-in-batting-fortunes-in-odi-cricket Here are some cool stats from it, helping explain England's rise in ODIs: England has improved in all three phases of batting, particularly in the middle overs however. They lose the same number of wickets in the middle overs, but they score upwards of 30 additional runs during the same phase. A lot of the same players from the previous WC have improved since then. Maybe a difference of pitches or is there something else? nitinbwj 1 Link to comment

Maybe a difference of pitches or is there something else? its the mindset that has changed they have batting depth , experience and coach who believes in a philosophy none of their players are super talented but talent ( aka sharma ) is overrated their philosophy is simple yet difficult to execute . they give chances to allrounders to excel in batting . they know that with two new balls , upto 375 us chaseable if u batt till number 11 teams who can stop england will have to- bowl exceedingly well in first 15 and last 15 have ability to chase 325 still and score 350 batting first only windies with gayle and a bunch of t20 specialists ( power hitters ) with good strong fast bowlers has the ability to upset england . its going to be a wi vs eng finals and wi will win SrinjayDutta, flamy, Tendulkar1996 and 3 others 4 1 1 Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 The key will be the pitches at the World Cup. They aren't even using as many venues as they did last time in 99. There are multiple matches in some venues and hopefully England will falter on some used, slower pitches . On flat decks, even wrist spin won't stop them. They have been the best players of everything including spin in the last 4 years. Link to comment

SrinjayDutta Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 India is in a better position than England at the moment. More balanced teams win the cup. Also, England will choke in the knock outs. They do not have winning mentality, which was clear during test series. When they lose, they do not fight back. Check last two year stats. Only two teams have 50:50 odi records against them. Ind and Sa. I think ind has a great chance this year with a more balanced team. Link to comment
SrinjayDutta Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Not one England bowler except Rashid is in top 10. Rashid is a pie thrower in my view anyway. You cannot win a WC with this. They are only king of flat pitches, neither can play spin or swing. We can also hit out in flat pitches and I have lot of faith on our bowlers this year. flamy 1 Link to comment

I doubt they can do this chase against Indian bowling attack. That’s cos we will set a target of 310 on 400 pitch , so yes they will never chase like this against our bowling Link to comment

Yes our bowling is great , but our batting would still cost us matches look how their openers played . 91 in first 10 and almost 200 in first 25 , this is how you set or chase totals .

Current Eng team are like our 2011 team , very batting heavy but just like us the home conditions will help we cannot hit out on flat pitches lol Link to comment

Let me know when their openers win them world cup. They will choke when needed most. Smacking trundlers won't make them great. They were not able to smack even yadav & kaul properly. flamy 1 Link to comment
nitinbwj Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Did Gabriel and Roach play ? Eng faced toy bowlers. Link to comment
flamy Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 FTBs... They are very dependent on Root, and to an extent Morgan. Those are the key wickets. Mainly Root though. Link to comment
