Well Played SIR STUART BINNY

[Cricketics]

Over CLASSY LOOKING 20 ODD. OR ONE DIGIT NUMBER from any elegant batsman who is looking elegant from past 7 years but hasn't done jack. Binny can be seen as just a batsman and not a an all rounder. Gutsy knock under pressure. We could have collapsed and lost a game here but he stood.

[SLICKR392]

Gorgeous 50. Handles swing better than Jadeja. His first boundary was a sweet cover drive against a ball that swung in.

Please.even no 11s are almost hitting a 100 on this pitch,Bunny doesn't offer anything to this team.

Please.even no 11s are almost hitting a 100 on this pitch' date='Bunny doesn't offer anything to this team.[/quote'] this inning is more like batting under pressure with ball reversing and swinging. He faced both old and new ball at it's best and India could have been bowled out early and England really had a realistic chance to win. Binny didn't let it happen. He's hung around more than people expect from him. Few knocks like these or one big knock can make him a better test player. He can gain lot of confidence from this.

If we had picked a proper bowler than we have had a good lead,I actually like the 5 bowler strategy but the 5th bowler has to get wickets or it defeats the purpose.

sir is reserved for jaddu .. binny is lord.. lord stuart binny

[jhakati]

terrific innings

[Gollum]

Rohit Sharma can never dream of playing an innings like this.

[Lord]

Please.even no 11s are almost hitting a 100 on this pitch' date='Bunny doesn't offer anything to this team.[/quote'] yes thats why the score was 173-6 when he came in

[tweaker]

Good innings under pressure,certainly deserves applause.Nobody expected him to score in such commanding manner

[FreakazoiD]

I think its fair to say India would have lost this match if not for Binny. More importantly, he is now tiring out the England bowler even more, and that may help us in the next test. Respect where its due!

[tweaker]

Good chance for on debut century

[mancalledsting]

Wouldn't read too much into this knock- the sort of wicket on which Geoffrey Boycott's grandmother could make a century

[tweaker]

On this pitch,batsman like Cook,Kohli,Rahane have failed

[gattaca]

On this pitch' date='batsman like Cook,Kohli,Rahane have failed[/quote'] very good point

[rageaddict]

Should bat ahead of that useless Jharkandi in Tests . The Skipper made sure that Binny doesnt get to impress with the ball but he couldnt deny him the opportunity to bat.

Please.even no 11s are almost hitting a 100 on this pitch' date='Bunny doesn't offer anything to this team.[/quote'] ball was swinging a lot when he came to bat, laud what he did now. Yes, he isnt a bowler to play test.

Lets give Credit where it's due. It's because of Dhoni that he is playing. He gave him the chance in those warm up games and again here where he impressed. Only thing Dhoni needs to do is define is roll. If he really considers him as a the 5th bowling option, then he should use him like that. It's not that we have Steyn or Andersons that 5th bowler can't be bowled much.
