ICC World T20, 2012 SriLanka

[mr cricket]

Tournament sucks so far.

[vvvslaxman]

In IPL' date=' pitches were slow mostly which helped his pace variations and then people forgot he bowled along side Sunil Narine whose presence helped whole bowling attack. Even Munaf bowled well in presence of Malinga and when Malinga got injured, suddenly his bowling declined.[/quote'] True he can be a handy support bowler. But i think he bowled better in the IPL. He could be quicker. He bowled some absolute peaches. Here he is primarily focusing on slower ones without mixing up deliveries. He looks woefully nervous while bowling. No positive body language. Confidence is a key in T20 as you have to constantly think on the feet. With fear and nervousness Balaji will continue to provide nervous moments for Indian fans .

We dont mind kaun kya kar raha hai in groups ... but come crucial games get people with good records like sunnyji and even Texy to do it.

At least, they can allow free entry once match starts as there is already no one buying tickets and watching in stadium.

Raina?

:haha: i had the same reaction as yours..... however, i think in the sub-continent I would not put it past him to give a couple of blockbuster performances out of nowhere. Lekin definitely not good enough to have the team 'tik' on him

[King Tendulkar]

bangla v nz should be good tomorrow. than onwards it's pretty good.

No thats another rubbish match against 2 80% minnows. Also tommorow is another one sided game of afghans v england. What a ridiculous schedule, days in to the tournament and no big teams have met to get the viewers thrilled and excited. Rubbish

At least' date=' they can allow free entry once match starts as there is already no one buying tickets and watching in stadium.[/quote'] Tickets cost 25c to 1 USD aur kitna free karenge! :cantstop:

Lekin definitely not good enough to have the team 'tik' on him[/quote'] I think his batting against spin is worrying. He used to thrash spinners. Nowadays he is playing little awkward.

Raina?

+ Raina!? :omg: Can't even put bat to ball if there is a bit of turn.

[NareshK]

Also having a big match up front will mean one of the major teams will lose which makes it a knock out game for them against the minnows and it will be a lot more exciting.

as i said in the other thread.. Zimbabwe is already done with their run for this cup while 6 other teams have not even started their games.. feel sad for zimbabwe... where is sir john when you need him..

[gaurav92]

Well done Afghanis, they have the potential to beat a decent side, they must make sure they play with the spirit all the time :nice:

[gaurav92]

Good luck Dexter paaji :icflove:

[jind]

thanks for dropping those catches:P The fielding was awful however, the batting and bowling showed some positive signs.. They put up a good fight nonetheless

[SLICKR392]

I don't see them winning against England if the game is played on the same pitch as SA and ZIM. I hope they do (win)

[Executioner]

Afghans are a better outfit than zimbabwe. Zimbabwe apart from regular bashing of SA and BD at their own turf have done noting. Theyve been losing everything when playing outside their home.

Tickets cost 25c to 1 USD aur kitna free karenge! :cantstop:

:giggle: I forgot Hambantota is an isolated stadium.

I think SL people are interested in becoming rich by saving big time. Ive studied with lots of lankans, they are generally rich, now i wonder why:cantstop:

They lined up the good games for the weekend for television revenues etc. Feel free to watch the exciting IPL highlights until then.
