Raghav_12 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 First Test overseas draw is a good proposition.We should tire out Anderson & Broad If you go by last few overseas tours, first test is where give best performances. In SA we almost won (and then almost lost) first test match. Australia we were well placed in first test match to win. After that we go down-hill. Link to comment

yoda Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Looks like there is no plan to declare. Anyways, 40 overs is almost useless on this pitch, so might as well bat. Link to comment
Raghav_12 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 We have drawn another overseas test. Another confirmation of captain cool's assessment that we are improving. Link to comment

Anyways' date=' 40 overs is almost useless on this pitch, so might as well bat.[/quote'] There is more to gain if we declare. As I said, we could have kept batting if Broad or Anderson were bowling.

velu Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Junta who wants to declare now and have a go at england Whatever the stuff you guys are smoking , please pass the formula :--D When 50 overs were remaining everyone were silent . At 40 over mark many want to have a go at england. :facepalm: England needs to play just 25 overs till the mandatory last 15 overs. Expecting a miracle with our bowling in this pitch is sort of dolphins chewing puffer fish to get high. Link to comment
Cricketics Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I just don't like the look when our team has good enough score and I see our bowlers batting. I rather make our bowlers bowl regardless of the situation. Bowl 30 odd overs and get good match practice. It's not that a 30 over session will hurt their body a lot. Sometimes you bowler more than that in net sessions in practices. So rather just have some match practice here. Link to comment
saneindian Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Before the match started - Captain pathetic, team not s good, another 5-0 whitewash After day 1 - Now lets bat on and score 600 After Day 2 - Bowlers have disappointed, lucky wicket of cook, England to put 500, draw certain After day 3 - Captain pathetic, bowlers not so good, we will collapse in 2nd innings and lose After day 4- Horrible batting, defensive mindset, loss looming After lunch on day 5 - Captain pathetic, team pathetic, we will lose, lets try to salvage a draw 1 hour after lunch on day 5 - Well fought we could save this now Last hour before tea - Defensive captain, will hurt us in rest of the series As bad a captain Dhoni is, alas captains dont have the flexibility of changing so much so quickly Link to comment

jhakati Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Pathetic captaincy by Dhobi. Should have declared and gone for the win Link to comment
Midfielder Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Rest the pace bowlers. It is a huge advantage for next test as their bowlers have roughly twice the overs of Indian bowlers. Link to comment

jhakati Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Defensive and cowardly captaincy. No wonder his overseas record is so pathetic. Link to comment
