Lord Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 WE GAVE 40 RUNS EXTRA TODAY n now are in precarious position at 155/6.now this is dhoni s chance to prove that he deserves to play tests regularly.u cant play every match just bcoz ur a keeper & now the captain.we need a big innings from dhoni.we need to atleast get level to eng score.dhoni needs to get a 70+ score.get us outta trouble,dhoni with him is bhajji,who as usual opened his big mouth yesterday criticising eng batting.he has already been outbowled by swann as he was by krejza in nagpur.he needs to stick around too.the pitch is still good.

Lord Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 am i reading this correctly??? sachin_rox is cheerin for Dhoni.. wat on earth is happening?? n bhajji i like neither but they have gotta do the job.i never doubted dhoni's batting skills,but he has been a failure in tests so far,he got to prove that he deserves his place as a batsman-keeper Link to comment
SachDan Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 rox, is that an honest cry or are you preparing for something else tomorrow??:winky: Link to comment
Ram Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Doubt if our tail can mount ANOTHER rear-guard action. This is so similar to the situation we found ourselves in, in the first test against Aus. Only this time, we wont be mounting a fightback. At best, I expect India to get to 220. Link to comment
Laaloo Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I dont know but If Pieterson keeps bowling the likes of andersons, flintoffs, and haramissons to ZAk and bhajji, then we will prolly get to somewhere around 250-260ish. But if he bowls panesar and swann, then likely India would not get more than 225ish. Link to comment
satishg Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 If we get more than 225 i will be damn surprised..man the opening match blues never seem to disappear for our team..no matter wat great form they are in they always seem to eff up the first test match in a series..and this is just a 2 match series..BCCI suckers Link to comment

This is so similar to the situation we found ourselves in, in the first test against Aus. Only this time, we wont be mounting a fightback. At best, I expect India to get to 220. we'll get to 250+ I'm sure Bhajji, Khan, and Dhoni are worth another 100 runs between them, and then only 60 behind. We can do this boys! Link to comment

KKD would have dropped 5 in one match. Bulk of bowling is done by the spinners and by your own logic, KKD is poor in that area. Link to comment
Lord Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 ^^ yeah he is poor,but he can improve i given time.we havent given him time yet. and who is to say 4 sure KKD would have dropped 5 in one match.he aint that bad Link to comment
