ICC World T20, 2012 SriLanka

But today you've got to admit that no combination of the bowling was to make any difference to the state of the result of the match.

Thats what i said we should have gone with 7 batsman at the last moment as our bowling sucks anyway .

[Laaloo]

I've been used to these thrashings the past couple of years especially in international matches so nothing new here. It's like beating a dead horse. Same crap over and over again and over time you become immune to it

... and got hit for 2 sixes.

[ganeshran]

ridiculous decision to play Chawla. Apart from the good performance against England, chaiwala has no history of doing anything of note. Sehwag should have played instead of Chawla

Can you quote posts from earlier match, how many people during SA-Pak match said that we should play 4 spinners(not just 3) on this pitch in the evening ? :giggle:

[ganeshran]

The expectations are already low because our team has not anything in last two world cups. Why would things be any different this time around.

No no - we would have done better had it not rained. The pitch was clearly tailor made for spin man. 3 out 4 innings played on the track the batsmen struggled to reach 140.

Can you quote posts from earlier match' date=' how many people during SA-Pak match said that we should play 4 spinners(not just 3) on this pitch in the evening ? :giggle:[/quote'] Exactly Numb as I said earlier 3 out of 4 innings the batting team struggled to reach 140. The fourth got there easily. Surely it can not be such a huge gulf without any external help - our bowlers and the pitch.

Look at how aussies were delaying bowling in last 2-3 overs when drizzling started. They ensured it takes time and track gets more moisture.

This, can't blame them, it was good tactical ploy, it took them an eternity to bowl that final over with against a bunch tailenders, not to mention Shane Watson pulling out for no reason in one of his delivery run ups.

[DravidDaBest]

Why my thread on insanity got deleted twice? Why my thread on Albert Einstein's insanity quote got deleted twice? Isn't it quite appropriate answer to our T20 team's performance?

[The Outsider]

Biggest ass whooping of your life as well! :hysterical:

[Crookbond]

In before this get deleted as well. :hysterical:

[PaceAttack]

Nope, As long they win against Pakis, I won't complain.

[King Tendulkar]

Your T20 team for next match in batting order. 1 Sehwag 2 Gambhir 3 Kohli 4 Sharma 5 Raina 6 Tiwary 7 Dhoni 8 Ashwin 9 Bhaji 10 I pathan 11 Z Khan

Yeah, poor Dhoni! :((

[jairamesh]

I was suppose to add a poll!!, site crashed!:wall: If any mod in, please add public poll with following options: 1) Who is playing next? 2) *Sigh* 3) Just beat padosi, that's all 4) Indifferent 5) Mildly angry/hurt 6) Very angry/hurt

[Lord]

... and got hit for 2 sixes.

he was in form,even last match he did well.not opening with him doesnt make any sense

[King Tendulkar]

No I am fine. ps sack DHONI!!!!!

[CG]

he is meant to be a front line bowler. forget the batting. too many blind pathan bhakts on here. :facepalm:

:hysterical::hysterical: WTF ,irfan pathan plays as an allrounder not a front line bowler.

+1 Glad someone caught that! Even the cameras were showing Bailey smiling but of course our commentators were interested in discussing some other stuff. :mad:
