special K Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 all minnow bashing in our early days. we whitewashed you 3-0 in 92-93. won over there in 86 and 07 where you did not win a single match. India back to being minnows.:woot:
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 side totally different includes cook' date=' trott, pietersen, bell, bresnan, swann, finn.[/quote'] yep, not the test side at all, no prior or strauss or anderson or morgan or tremlett
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 India back to being minnows.:woot: yep:giggle:
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 I'm pointing the ashes results out to show that it's not uncommon for us to do well in a test series but fall to bits in ODI's. This is because so much is putting into the tests and ODI's aren't taken with quite the same respect. So your comparision with ODI's and test form has no bearing on one another. If we lose the test series to India but won the ODI series nobody back home would care about the ODI result. Just disappointed with the test performances. what i'm saying is it gives an idea about conditions. in the 6-1 england competed (although lost). in the 5-0 in four of the matches you guys struggled to cross 200. jadeja and ashwin were weaving webs around you. and odis are not slogfests like t20s. middle overs require plenty of negotiating the ball around, taking singles etc.
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 yep' date=' not the test side at all, no prior or strauss or anderson or morgan or tremlett[/quote'] anderson sucks in odis in sc - 91 in 10 overs. strauss/prior - kicked out of odi team. the main heroes trott, cook and pietersen were there.
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 India back to being minnows.:woot: england minnows in sc. :cantstop:

Go and have a look at our test batting against India over the last 30 years and you will see a huge difference. What makes me laugh is where will you go when we start winning We are expected to lose, if Eng rack up wins and draws in the SC you will look very silly
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 england minnows in sc. :cantstop: This is the difference between us and you, we do not see any side touring as minnows We look at the strengths of their team You think just the conditions will beat us
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 anderson sucks in odis in sc - 91 in 10 overs. strauss/prior - kicked out of odi team. the main heroes trott, cook and pietersen were there. ODI's yawn Do you not realise that batsmen bat totally different in a 50 over slogfest than they do when batting in a test where you might bat for 160 overs?
special K Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 anderson sucks in odis in sc - 91 in 10 overs. strauss/prior - kicked out of odi team. the main heroes trott, cook and pietersen were there. Yeah but we own you in 20/20. Lets compare that to test cricket.

What makes me laugh is where will you go when we start winning We are expected to lose, if Eng rack up wins and draws in the SC you will look very silly in india it isn't that good. What makes me laugh is you will disappear when you guys lose just like you weren't anywhere to be seen in the series over here.
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Yeah but we own you in 20/20. Lets compare that to test cricket. Won same number of world t20s.
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 in india it isn't that good. What makes me laugh is you will disappear when you guys lose just like you weren't anywhere to be seen in the series over here. what series over there, we have not had a test series over there for years:--D
special K Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Won same number of world t20s. But we're 3-1 in head to heads. The point is, comparing 20/20 to ODI's is like comparing ODI's to tests.
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 what series over there' date=' we have not had a test series over there for years:--D[/quote'] u were invisible in the odi series. before it u were saying something about both teams being young or some such bullshit. then you disappeared.
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 But we're 3-1 in head to heads. The point is, comparing 20/20 to ODI's is like comparing ODI's to tests. yeah nice. thing is in the pinnacle of all three forms we've been better world cup - 2 to 0 t20 cup - 1 each world no 1 - 22 months to 4 months
special K Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 yeah nice. thing is in the pinnacle of all three forms we've been better world cup - 2 to 0 t20 cup - 1 each world no 1 - 22 months to 4 months Yeah whatever. We have better head to head in 20/20 and tests. Test being the most significant. We've been the no.1 team before rankings existed. Only Aus and West Indies have created a dynasty but there have been other teams at the top that were not quite so dominant. England has been no.1 a long time ago.
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Yeah whatever. We have better head to head in 20/20 and tests. Test being the most significant. We've been the no.1 team before rankings existed. Only Aus and West Indies have created a dynasty but there have been other teams at the top that were not quite so dominant. England has been no.1 a long time ago. 70-72
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 u were invisible in the odi series. before it u were saying something about both teams being young or some such bullshit. then you disappeared. Oh I disappeared HMMM By creating a thread saying 'bye folks I dont watch Odi cricket' Yeah I was really hiding :hysterical:
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Yeah whatever. We have better head to head in 20/20 and tests. Test being the most significant. We've been the no.1 team before rankings existed. Only Aus and West Indies have created a dynasty but there have been other teams at the top that were not quite so dominant. England has been no.1 a long time ago. yeah when most teams were minnows and aus and eng were the only proper two teams? :haha:
