cowboysfan Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 one of the main problem has been the openers,they just cant get a decent start nowadays.
Ramzz Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 We ain't chasing 230...forget 300. The way our batting has fallen way in the last year is frustrating. Dhoni is a walking wicket, so is probably Kohli to outswing bowling. Laxman is out of form and so is GG. Can't rely on Sehwag, Dravid and SRT to do all the work.

bulbul Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 If target goes above 300. We need Sehwag to fire at all costs i dont understand why people keep on repeating 300....they are effectively 230/8....at max they can score 20/25 runs more...even chance of gettin ao for same score

Laaloo Posted December 28, 2011 Author Posted December 28, 2011 i dont understand why people keep on repeating 300....they are effectively 230/8....at max they can score 20/25 runs more...even chance of gettin ao for same score 20-25 runs? Watch the chewtiya captain spread the field when Hussey bats allowing him to pile on singles and try to get Pattinson out at the other end. We'll be chasing 280ish which we will not do.
Ramzz Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 got MoM two games back.plus against Aussies hes good. I think he has been found out by England. Now bowlers will keep trying to full much much fuller to laxman early on...he is uncomfy on the front foot. I hope I am proved wrong.

I hope I am proved wrong. got two 50S there,relatively not that bad as everyone failed.if he had any such weakness,do u think McGrath,Gillespie wouldnt have exploited it?
zen Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 MCG : 292 to get .... No need to say we need to bat well. What do you reckon, will we get that? Any changes to the batting order?
Dravid_TheWall Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Good luck to Viru in chase of 292 I am sure I don't need to tell you but I will: Dil se khelo :yay: And GG, just hold up one end and nurdle for awhile. Only play if ball is on pads or straight enough to drive.
Manny_Pacquiao Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 no. whoever wins the 3rd inning usually wins the game. for india to win, we need some incredible, out of this world batting. tendulkar, laxman and sehwag. the only 3 players that are worth giving a **** about. the rest are worthless. i would add gambhir to that list, but he is out of form right now.
CG Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 I am sure I don't need to tell you but I will: Dil se khelo :yay: And GG, just hold up one end and nurdle for awhile. Only play if ball is on pads or straight enough to drive. Good to see you back bro.
Dravid_TheWall Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 If Mahi opened with Viru could we use him as a pinch hitter, surprise the Aussies. Maybe the mere sight of MS's broad shoulders and his blade, Australia ko dar lagjaye ga.
coffee_rules Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Gambir Dravid stay put, rest of the stroke makers have to take risks. Keep the scoreboard ticking is the answer. All the best to India. :isalute:
Dravid_TheWall Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Good to see you back bro. Hey man, thanks, hope you're ok. Revising and watching the cricket today. Can't wait!
satishg Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Need to play exceptionally well to win this game, definitely possible but given our recent exploits outside subcontinent i am very nervous. The odds are against us!
zen Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 I remember we had sent pujara at #3 in one of the test and he clicked to help ind win ..... How abt sending kohli at 3? He would be hungry to take the opportunity ....
Yoda-esque Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 I remember we had sent pujara at #3 in one of the test and he clicked to help ind win ..... How abt sending kohli at 3? He would be hungry to take the opportunity .... Kohli doesn't have the technique
zen Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 GG looks focused ..... Leaving the balls nicely
zen Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Watching a game after a long time .... Had watched Virus's inng in the first inning
