SLICKR392 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 so u r saying dhoni would do something like this if we had umesh or varun. Umesh and especially Aaron are no Pattinson, Siddle or Starc.
vvvslaxman Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Ashwin was a little more expensive in his later spells. He bowled first 6 overs and gave 1 run with 5 maidens IIRC. In his last 9 overs' date=' he gave away 40 runs whereas Jadeja and Bhajji were a bit more economical. Maybe that's why he was given less overs.[/quote'] When Ashwin was taken off the attack after his first spell his spell read 7 overs 1 for 10. Oz 77/4. For some strange reason he did not bring back Ashwin again until OZ got to 132/4. Batsmen were well set.
SLICKR392 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 how many runs aussies will score in first inning. I think 325.. ur guesses 320 Their tail will come into play 450+ 550+ about 450 450 atleast 550 890 and then draw' date='typical subcontinent test cricket,[/quote'] If we hold hands and jinx together such as this, we can destroy any bloody world power. :antijinx: :om:
G_B_ Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Only once a team has lost the match after declaring for such a low score :beee: that was in 1937 by the looks of it draw seems to be the most prevalent outcome which tells me that it might be weather issues (rain)

The reason Dhoni kept bowling Harbhajan Singh is because Wade struggled against Harbhajan in the previous Test match.
Sidhoni Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 But the question is' date=' did he bowl good enough to keep out Ojha? The second innings might tell[/quote'] Not at all. he just can't.
Old guy Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 If we hold hands and jinx together such as this' date=' we can destroy any bloody world power. :antijinx: :om:[/quote'] honestly..seeing the trend here if we want to win.. icf needs to go down... kill this damn site! :finger:
G_B_ Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 IMO' date=' this was neither a great decision nor a stupid one. Clarke took a risk which didn't pan out.[/quote'] agree
vvvslaxman Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 The reason Dhoni kept bowling Harbhajan Singh is because Wade struggled against Harbhajan in the previous Test match. May be. But Ashwin should allowed to be expensive at times as he is the only one flighting the ball. That should not be a reason to take him off a spell. His second spell read 8 overs 31 runs.. tad expensive. But not overly expensive. Clarke skipped down the track and tried to dominate him at every given opportunity. He did succeed to some extent.
JaFanatic Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 890 and then draw' date='typical subcontinent test cricket,[/quote'] :cantstop:
JourneyMan Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 This is one of the things that makes test cricket what it is.
SLICKR392 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 honestly..seeing the trend here if we want to win.. icf needs to go down... kill this damn site! :finger: Can't study with the site up eh? :giggle:
G_B_ Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Ashwin bowled better than Bhajji but bhajji too did not bowl badly. His second spell was good.
SLICKR392 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 You can post these in the match thread rather than creating a new thread for it. :agree:
Crookbond Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 May be. But Ashwin should allowed to be expensive at times as he is the only one flighting the ball. That should not be a reason to take him off a spell. His second spell read 8 overs 31 runs.. tad expensive. But not overly expensive. Clarke skipped down the track and tried to dominate him at every given opportunity. He did succeed to some extent. 8 overs for 31 runs at 4 RPO is too expensive in the context of this Test match. This is not to say Ashwin shouldn't be allowed to be expensive. This is to say that if one bowler is not working against a particular batsman it's ok to be rotated against someone else. Also, to be fair Harbhajan's first spell read 7-1-16-0. The best bowler was rewarded with more overs - in this match it was the be Harbhajan while in the previous game it was Ashwin. I don't see any issue here.
Old guy Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Can't study with the site up eh? :giggle: can u ? :winky:
SLICKR392 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 can u ? :winky: No and they start on the 6th :((
Old guy Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 No and they start on the 6th :(( hope india lose.. that will motivate u for studying hard!:two_thumbs_up:
