fineleg Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 LOL. India have always gotten their behinds handed to them by tailend batsmen. Whats new? Been the same case for Ind bowlers against different countries! Though this 10 wicket partnership of Root and Clouderson was epic :fail: Dhoni will offer his reasons :)
moniker Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Stop gap bowler who could prize out a wicket or two and bowl economically and a batsmen who was expected to score 30 runs. Failed with the bat and not needed as a bowler as other seamers were doing a good job. Perhaps if there was a big partnership in the middle' date=' he could have been asked to bowl a few more overs.[/quote'] You perhaps missed watching the 8th and 10th wicket partnerships between Root and Broad and Root and Anderson, maybe they weren't big enough for you?
flamy Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 So, why isn't there quality control on umpires? How is it either team's fault?
jf1gp_1 Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 England let our 10-11 to score 50+ we out did them and let 11 score 81. Both have part timers in the name of bowlers. Neither team deserves to win this test. If it were upto me i wouldnt have recorded this game as a draw i would void this test, no record that such a crappy test ever happened.
Cricket_Hacker Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 get the quickest bowler in india(aaron,yadav) and try to blast the tail. Dont expect to get them out with 130 kmph thunderbolts
BeautifulGame Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 ATM its better to replace Binny with Ashwin as eng has 6 LHB in their line up. Also if we play 4 seamers ideally Aaron should play as he has the pace to knock off tail enders. Our bowling to tail enders has become a joke

vvvslaxman Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 A 200 run last wicket partnership is not big enough for you :hysterical: :haha:

Pagalpanti Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Glad at least they are acknowledging their deficiency
putrevus Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 "Yes, I'm disappointed with the way I got out. I could have batted more responsibly given that the end of play was close by and we had just lost Murali Vijay before that. But the ball bounced a little more and I couldn't control it enough. I couldn't capitalise on the pitch we have here," he added. When last time any indian player accepted responsibility , it is always one excuse after another excuse. Well done Pujara.keep it up.
keith Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Umpiring has been crap ... as have been England ... and India ... and the pitch ... total crap match :haha: pretty much. Worst test match I've watched in a long time. We've been spoilt by some great series recently but if this is going to be 5 matches at this standard I'm tuning out.
JaiRamesh2 Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 More than Kohli, Pujara should be made Test captain, ASAP. Though even I would not mind even if it is Kohli. But just sack the dimwit Dhoni.
NareshK Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 I hope Pujara and Kohli are learning a lot because they will be captain and vice captain very soon. Captaining a test side is very tough and demanding and nothing like captaining an ODI side like Captain Cool is finding out.
Cricket_Hacker Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Not if we play positively and build a decent lead
