NareshK Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 It doesnt matter what NRR was at the end of the game yesterday as they will change with the first game tomorrow and the NRR to achieve to edge past other teams will also be known only then. In any case, the difference between Ind, Pak and SA in terms of NRR is miniscule and can be taken care of as long as the teams manage to win but advantage is with SA and Ind as they will play the last game.
yoda Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Really surprised not many people are upset about this glaring oversight and nobody questioned the team think-tank about the same. Cause no one but you is paranoid about an event with a 10% chance of happening. Mistakes happen, but we only worry about mistakes of potential consequence. It is a good theoretical discussion, that's all.
Lord Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 I dont think its such a decisive factor actually.they have not adjusted to low n slow wickets.SL n Aus havent batted first n I think they'll win even batting first.others except India are just too poor for these wickets.India game against Aus' date='we were set for 160 but lost 3 quick wickets n then captain walked in[/quote'] like I said it was more bad batting on slow wickets than toss factor.good team like SL will make a good score here too.its not such a bad wicket as was made to look by NZ n WI against Lanka.other one also not as bad as SA made it seem
Manny_Pacquiao Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 doesnt matter. net RRs arent set in stone, india will know exactly what they need to do before their match begins. thanks to the evil BCCI for rigging the tournament by having india play all their matches 2nd.
Jersey #10 Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 I don't think there are too many out there Kohli, Ajmal, Watson are not "lone worriers" . Despite being exceptionally good, their teams are not going to fall apart without them. O'brian brothers from Ireland?

Jersey #10 Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Good job finding the sad moments in such a good win. That game helped our NRR quite well. It's not like India and Pakistan are going to come out with the same NRR from their games against AUS and SA.
jairamesh Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Poor Harsha was banging on about it. :hysterical: Unless both games are a washout, then I don't think it will make much difference. If both games are washed out, then I think management/experts should be blamed. Because most sane people were aware our NNR took a battering and this was a golden opportunity to make up for it when Sehwag and Kohli were well set.

It was expected as he was facing offspinners. Nohit or Raina should have come with license to kill.

Jersey #10 Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Going by the T20 WC Kevin Pietersen - England :haha:
Sidhoni Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 It wont make much of a difference but they should have been aware. We need to chase against SA to know the overs in which we will have to chase down. It will be great for us if Aus beats Pak(which is highly likely). Then we just have to win.
jairamesh Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Sri Lanka's two fingers at "spirit of cricket" again, typical. Mahela Jayawardene, who had handed the captaincy to Kumar Sangakkara for the game, http://www.espncricinfo.com/icc-world-twenty20-2012/content/current/story/584994.html So to prevent Jayawardene and Matthews (vice capt) getting banned from next game after being on warning for slow over rate, Sanga was the "official" capt for SL v Eng game. Yet it is clear on the field Jayawardene is making all the decisions. Well tbh, it is no surprise coming from Sri Lankan cricketers and Sanga, the great backer of "spirit of cricket". Background: For second offence in 12 months. From Para 7.3, ICC Code of Conduct: The imposition of a fine of between 50-100% of the applicable Match Fee and/or up to two (2) Suspension Points. 1 suspension point = 1 match ban in t20 so Mahela could have missed both Semi and Finals if deemed guilty Post match interview: Nasser: there was something going on about over rates...were you pulling a fast one? Sanga admits to that he was official captain because Jaya and Matthews were on warning.

Sidhoni Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 And also rather than worrying about those 2 balls, we should have taken the match much closer against Aus actually. Even if we had kept them batting for 1 more over, our position would have been great!
CoverDrive Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 anyone seen a more blatant case of cheating before So Lady Jaya is in trouble for slow over rates and what do they do. make Sanga the captain in name while on the field nothing changes and he is still the captain. so this way potentially you can continue to screw up with the over rates and make a new captain every match. Baap ka maal samjha hai kuch bhi smartness karoge!!! ban the smartasses
Executioner Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 I lost me respect for Jayawardene and sanga.
Old guy Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 I lost me respect for Jayawardene and sanga. u had some before? :omg:
