anotherhawkeye Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Good to see some positive attitude from an Indian player.
vamos_rafa Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 We have messed up a great opportunity. While watching the final few overs in the 3rd days play, I felt that we certainly have messed up a great chance to get back in the series. The amount of turn and bounce that's there in the pitch, would have really tested the Poms had they would have been made to bat 4th. Agreed that we just don't have the bowlers but somehow,I felt that this would have behaved like a sub-continent track on day 4 and 5. And the way Raina was bowling, that certainly made me feel the same.
zep1706 Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Totally agreed and most of our batsmen got out playing stupid shots in the first innings. This has been a series of lost opportunities, I still rue about the first two days at TB, oh boy didn't we just throw it away.
vamos_rafa Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 ^ Yes and even at lord's, when they were 61-5, we should HAVE gone for the kill. That's what champion sides do.
tapish Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 WTF is this ? Sacking captains, selectors, this is completely mad. Is this a sarcastic thread or I am missing something? Anyways I am with 5, **** happens
tapish Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 what a thread, we can only save this game if it rains for 130 overs. I cannot see this team lasting for more than 50 overs.
Raghav_12 Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Lets go INdia.. jaan laga do. To be honest, this sounds hollow this time :((

J P K Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 I am surprised no rett-arded posts have cropped up in his defense :hmmmm2: :cantstop:
dragonfly Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 When I tried my hand at colon cleanse. Ahem, I didn't mean I used my hand for it but you get the point.
bulbul Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 At least you non UK based ICFers do not get to hear/read all the hype in the papers here. :wall: once EPL starts today...cricket will go to back pages... let them enjoy sucess..even we done over past 2/3 years in same way....
J P K Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 everyone calling viru as a flatbully but the fact is the pitch is flat how did england manage so many runs ? pitch is flat from day 1 even in sa tour pitch pitches were flat but still sehwag failed no attacking player is flat pitch bully
saneindian Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 I would be happy to see our batsmen not getting out playing attacking shots. Good balls get you out, fine, but show some fight.
Deleted_User_1 Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 On the 4th day............... 1. Dravid is going to resist and score a few before getting out to a jaffer. 2. Gambhir will hang around and then give his wicket away by poking outside the off stump. 3. SRT will get out cheaply AGAIN!! 4. Laxman will play an aggresive knock for a few runs, some lovely drives and then get out to a poor shot like a pull. 5. Raina will be bounced out cheaply. 6. Dhobi will not last long, one innings was enough. The rest will won't last more than 10 overs. It will be all over 1 hour past tea!
veer Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep down under i still have hopes..
cameron_black Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Thankfully we have another test. Otherwise he flew first class all the way from india to last 2 balls. well, one more test means he might end up with four ducks in four balls! :giggle:
