India vs England 2012

[Sidhoni]

Only viable alternative. Everyone else has a flaw.

Tendulkar has many.

[CSK Fan]

Got to have a thread to celebrate one of the finest knocks of his career dude. This ain't bromance!

He, he, no complaints from me. You ave grown up watching Dhoni in his prime, saw him bringing us the T20 and world cup and you are understandably his big fan. Just want you to reflect in moment such as these that some oldies have similarly grown up being Sachin fans for his 20 years of performance and feel equally insulted when people take random pot-shots at him P.S, not defending Sachin's place in the team, not saying that he is not wrong in staying on. But only a fan can understand another fan

I understand, bro. Some criticism will be there in such a situation and that isn't wrong. Though I agree that sometime posters here cross limits.

yep, best I've seen him in tests probably after Lords 07. But his stupid run out at 99 might cost us this game which we should have drawn.

[CG]

Yeah There was no need for it as ashwin is a good batsman.

England are going to collapse. Third innings in such situations is very difficult.With all the pressure of series victory and all I am seeing a collapse tomm.

Bhai, tujhe thread banani chahiye - KP run a ball 150 coming.

[philcric]

OP: How about betting ICF $8,126,263 on that ?

303/9 Ashwin 15* India all out 303

[Lord]

327/9 Ashwin 32*

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

THIS is how we used to win test matches with Kumble and Bhaji at their peak, get opposition in on day 4 and bombard them with spin, leaving us 100 runs or so in in 2/3 sessions day 5, or vice versa if batting first. Finally good to see some fight and resistance, Dhoni batted brilliantly (better than Kohli imo) showed good technique and patience to some great bowling. His slowest ever fifty but its what was needed.

[Lord]

damn

310/9 Ashwin-19

Dhoni Was The Boss!!

STFU

[The Outsider]

Genuine question. Barring English fans, who have been gracious enough in this regard, the pitch becomes "unsporting" and "rolled" mud when India are scoring runs and Sehwag is blasting a ton, but when Cook and KP and Trott are batting in their innings, there's not a whisper. Double standards. What about the s(h)it Aussie wickets that led Ed f(u)cking Cowan slam tons and negate a champion bowler ike Steyn's potency?

In my substantial time on ICF you are one of the biggest whiners I've seen.

[skindia]

draw on cards...eng will make 400 in 2nd innings

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

335 all out Ashwin 29*

[Number]

because Indian has such a crap batting line up. Crap against Spin, Crap against pace since god knows when. It must be a highway for them to bat on.
