Guest Hiten. Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Beat England and RSA to qualify for semis. Dhoni has to be dropped to a lower batting position and bowlers have to start taking more responsibilities as our batsmen cannot bail the team out on every occasion. WE HAZ THE BALLZ TO DO IT BAIZ :yay::eyedance:
guju24 Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 it will be tough not having shewag but let see...all the options are open still...but first beat England...
satishg Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 first get the poms out of the way..then we shall worry about SA..but yes it is eerily similar to the last world cup..hope things just goes that way this time around too
Cricketics Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 I remember this when i started making those famous thread last time around
guju24 Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 What suddenly happened to Ojha ? :(( this was the first good team we played in this competition...will have to see his performance in next game...

rahuliverpool Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 yup, in last wc too SA had not lost a game until it played us and the loss was such that they were knocked out! We will come back like we did after losing to NZ. PROUD TO WEAR BLUE!
vipin Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 this was the first good team we played in this competition...will have to see his performance in next game... He did well against pakistan and newzealand. Bravo had his number somehow.
bharat297 Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 Its kind of ironic actually ... having Dhoni up the order is useful for preventing a top order collapse, but on the downside we score slowly (as we have in the previous games). Then the first game he comes down the order and sends the faster scoring Suresh Raina up to 3, we have a top order collapse. Regardless, the batting order we had yesterday is the one Id stick with for the remainder of the tournament. Keep people in position and let them play to their positions. Constantly shuffling the order is not good.
Dooks Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 first get the poms out of the way..then we shall worry about SA..but yes it is eerily similar to the last world cup..hope things just goes that way this time around too Lightening doesn't strike twice in the same place. :-( But, I hope it really does. Plus no Motu - tough ask.
