India vs England 2012

[koolkarts]

I used to like him, but he's a weak player. Just get a bit of mystery spin going and he'll be out in no time.

As if Ganguly wouldn't have behaved in a similar manner. It's easier to give judgement from behind a desktop. Not everyone is an SRT, and I would have got equally pissed off as well, if I thought it was a genuine nick. Want to see more aggression from the team. England could have bullied us out of the game at 80/4. Good to see some fight. They can win the series but they ain't winning this test.

Ganguly's case was always of controlled aggression. These youngsters have somehow got the impression that abusing and behaving rudely is a way of showing aggression.

lol ... what happened ?

For once Dharmasena did not oblige us with a *decision in our favor and Dhoni & kohli started throwing their toys out of the pram. *batsman played a cut shot , missed it and ball went to wk . No sound , no deviation , nothing on the snickometer.

Hes had a bad run this year but I don't think they should rush to replace him- they have two newbies in the team in Compton and Root as it is. Give him the NZ series to see if he can get back into nick. Its not as if the Aussies have any mystery spinners at the mo anyway. Root in time may move to 5, which would mean either Bell could drop to 6 or they could bring in Taylor, Morgan or Bairstow: I would like Morgan to be given another go.

Why remove those comments? Weren't that bad. :hitler:

I used to like him' date=' but he's a weak player. Just get a bit of mystery spin going and he'll be out in no time.[/quote'] I can live with a weak player with 16 test hundreds and who averages 46: he is also the best fielder in the team. That said, he needs big runs soon. Tomorrow would be a good place to start. B->

Eng fans love Bell for his Tailunt.

Thrilling Match? my ass.

Thrilling Match? my ass.

It was until I made this thread :asleep:

[SLICKR392]

Everybody is relaxed and having a laugh after dropping a catch and letting a catch through vacant slip.These guys are shameless.Less said about the defensive tactics the better.

They were chatting and having a laugh after the drop :facepalm:

[Lord]

How quickly people forget my match-thread making abilities! :sniffle:

u didnt use them:idunno:

The first step in rebuilding includes Chawla & Jadeja in the squad ?

[Clarke]

Quite some unnecessary glorification here. This was some slow as hell Nagpur wicket, not a royal green Perth track or a crazy Kanpur dustbowl.

Are those eyeballs squeezing out or ass! :hmmm:

The spirit was there but the quality or temperament for test matches is still missing, absolute classic test innings from Dhoni that Dravid would be proud of, but more consistency needed from him and Kohli. This is a good bowling pitch which no one would have predicted a draw as the most likely outcome, both teams batting well. The transition will only start once Sehwag, Jadega, Chawla, Ojha (yes i know how he is our best bowler but it wont continue outside india), UV/Raina etc are never picked in test matches and yougsters like Rahane and Chand are given chances.

(it's only on here people think he should go)

:nice:

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

Draw - 70% England win - 19% India win - 11%

Rubbish, you are not considering the fact that England do not need a win and will likely bat till lunch at least (if going for the win) leaving us with 200-250 in 2 sessions, even our batting is not that bad we will lose 10 wickets in 60 overs!

[zep1706]

Yeah when your @ss is on the firing line you wake up what's new.

[SLICKR392]

Quite some unnecessary glorification here. This was some slow as hell Nagpur wicket' date=' not a royal green Perth track or a crazy Kanpur dustbowl.[/quote'] This innings is rated because he scored at low S/R. :giggle:

[King Khan]

Shewag & Gambhir's wickets will be the key wickets for match result tomorrow. This will turn into a fifth day thriller with India chasing. England cant carry on batting whole day, they are bound to fall/declr for sake of being a leader of this format.
