Ravi. Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 What a big disappointment for all of us. Cant bear it anymore.
yoda Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 We should give a walk over. Is that even allowed? Can the BCCI recall these bozos back?
Jayaram_IND Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 We should give a walk over. Is that even allowed? Can the BCCI recall these bozos back? We can declare at 0/0 if you like.I guess thats the best we can do.Maybe if we refuse to take the field tomorrow the match may be awarded to england.Remember the ball tampering incident of ENG VS PAK?(Just for fun)
rkt.india Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 tyagi is cr@p. tyagi is crap. What are you talking about? When he is fit, he is the best fast bowler in domestic cricket. He turned 2 ranji matches for UP Out of 3 he could bowl cause of injury, ave 14, sr 27, 18 wickets.
achilles Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Not Tyagi. Tyagi has done well in one-and-a-half seasons. http://www.cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/235/235440/f_Bowling_by_Season.html Pankaj has done well in three of the last four seasons. The other season, he did okay (28 wickets at 31.78). He has played full seasons too, not got injured and had to miss a lot of cricket. Pankaj has a suspect action.
Fontaine Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 There's a difference between Sreesanth and all of the other bowlers: 1. Ishant is not a swing bowler but a guy who can seam it off the deck and bowl at 85mph. For most of the day he was doing that, bowling okay, not great. It's only now at the end of the day when he's tired and the batsmen well set in that he's leaking runs. 2. PK is actually swinging/moving the ball and consistently bowling in the right areas with a good deal of control. Sree IS supposed to be a swing bowler that can bowl at 84/85mph. But apart from a few overs this morning he hasn't swung the ball consistently, hasn't been accurate AND is bowling at around 77-79mph. Sree's is the biggest failure because not only is he out of control with his accuracy, no balls, but can't even bowl at his supposed normal pace. Combine that with the fact that he's the senior most experienced bowler AND has bowled on a tour here before and in county cricket. Yet he still sucks. No excuses. The guy has hardly bowled any overs this year in ODI/Test cricket yet he looks out of shape and tired as if he's bowled over 500 overs already this season. I've been saying he's not test match material for quite some time. Instead of giving him all of these opportunities if some one like Pathan/Rp Singh would be groomed instead, we would be no worse off and at least those bowlers don't look completely clueless against LHB like this donkey.

msb1991 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 tyagi is crap. What are you talking about? When he is fit' date=' he is the best fast bowler in domestic cricket. He turned 2 ranji matches for UP Out of 3 he could bowl cause of injury, ave 14, sr 27, 18 wickets.[/quote'] An injury prone bowler is not what we need. He must prove his fitness. When a bowler hobbles off injured during a match, it is as good as conceding the match, 90% of the time.
rkt.india Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Tyagi has been plagued with injuries which also led to fall his form in 2009 season but came bacn magnificently in 2010 and again got injured while batting i think in his 4th match of the season and couldnt bowl.
Fontaine Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 For those who are watching- and I am not- is it as bad as the scorecard makes out? I mean how badly are we bowling? Is it more the pitch being flat? Are defensive field placings not helping?? Are the batsmen simply excellent? In short- WTF is going wrong? The pitch is flat but like PK has shown all day, and Ishant earlier, if you bowl in the right areas and have enough skill to change your bowling lines along the off stump you can tie down batsmen and make it very difficult to score. But then Sree comes along relieves all the pressure by full and wide garbage, or leg side deliveries that go for runs/boundaries all at the blistering pace of 77-79mph. Right before tea I think with the new ball when you really want to attack he bowled a 9 ball over with three no balls and two fours in which he shortened his run up and looked like garbage.
Sid Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I still have hope from this game. I know these brits have 50 lead already' date=' but what if we get them under 250 run lead, we can score about 450-500 surely 2nd time around here. With that we have chance to comeback in the game by askin brits to chase about 300.[/quote'] :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up:
rkt.india Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 @msb he had stress fracture after first season which most quick bowlers suffer initially but this is a good sign if happens early. after that, he didnt have any serious injury. last season, he got injured while batting, maybe while running or hit by ball.
Sid Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I have full faith in English bowlers to take our 20 wickets even at Oval,so 4-0 it will be :isalute:
Cricketics Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I mean how difficiult it is to bowl wicket to wicket and to your faile.d I know as a bowler you want to try different things, but you definatley gotta control that runrate.
rajmarie Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 The pitch is flat but like PK has shown all day, and Ishant earlier, if you bowl in the right areas and have enough skill to change your bowling lines along the off stump you can tie down batsmen and make it very difficult to score.

Exactly...& as Eng bowlers will show....that by bowling in the right areas for extended period of time...u force to batsman to get out. I can only say from the last 6 Test...that PK & Ishant has been a good pair & have taken bulk of the bowling load in the absence of Zak & useless Harbhajan in the team. They have been the only plus & with better support India could have been in a better situation.
Jayaram_IND Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I have full faith in English bowlers to take our 20 wickets even at Oval' date='so 4-0 it will be :isalute:[/quote'] We should not let them take 20 wkts.pls declare once.
