1st ODI | India v West Indies | October 8, 2014 | Kochi (India)

[sensible-indian-fan]

And who's the Indian commentator? He's just feeding Holding more and more.

"The pitch in Trinidad in 1976...." is not something I want to hear about.

Good on Wilkins for keeping focus on the game.

Murali Kartik.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Murali Vijay, Ashwin and Jaddu?

 

[Arsal_AK]

guess who are Mooli,Fatwin and halwai

No idea about Mooli and Halwai. Any hints??

But Fatwin must be Ashwin.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Mishra is halwai?? How come??

 

[Saurav]

No idea about Mooli and Halwai. Any hints??

But Fatwin must be Ashwin.

Vijay and Mishra

 

[Saurav]

But Fatwin must be Ashwin.

Vijay and Mishra

 

[desi_launda]

Mishra is halwai?? How come??

fat,short and bald

 

[Varun]

Rayudu plays too many dots for my liking.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Mishra

Oh...

 

[Arsal_AK]

No prob.

We use Tailunt now.

Yup how could I forget that. We have a Tailunt of our own too.

 

[Saurav]

Rayudu gone

just not good enough

 

[Varun]

Slogs and gets himself out.

 

[Varun]

Shastri stared like a hawk at that dismissal. Hope Rayudu gets dropped.

 

[desi_launda]

hackudu gone

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

 

[Arsal_AK]

Raina should come in now, no??

 

[imback]

rayudu is out , but not out of the team as he makes good biryani

 

[90MPH]

Rayadu lol

 

[desi_launda]

india's best test prospect in

 

[leatherface58]

Rayudu is like Indian Shafiq.

 

[Varun]

Wish we had Rohit Sharma. Bashing West Indies is what he does for a living.

 

[Jabo]

GONE

Raina for a 0

 

[Varun]

Trouble. Hope Dhoni comes out and not Jadeja.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

What is rayadu doing in the team?

 

[Varun]

West Indies will win us this in wides.

 

[Adil_94]

India doing a Pakistan here. But as long as MSD is out there anything is possible. Shame we cant say that when our Kaptaan is out there

 

[dashing_man]

this is still in india grasp. don't under-estimate windies bowling, they can lose from any position

PS: if india loses, i guess everyone will start creating threads like "How many overs will India chase this total?" )

 

[Varun]

Long time no boundary.

 

[IAJ]

This is the same Windies team that India A owned badly.
Unmukt Chand blasted the same bowlers.

Doubt if Unmukt Chand Could have done any better today. Those were side matches with no preassure at all.

It takes some matches to get used to the conditions and they played better by each match.

Windies have now Smith, Russel and Bravo back for them.

 

[steelo green]

What is rayadu doing in the team?

I'm shocked he's still there. India has a plethora of young batting talent and Rayadu would make Pakistan but India can actually choose better players. There are a bunch of kids coming up if I recall (names aren't coming to me at the moment).

 

[IAJ]

And remember windies are also without their best bowler here, not to mention Gayle.

But they don't make good biryanis.

No biryani. No spot.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

And remember windies are also without their best bowler here, not to mention Gayle.

Their best bowler has a horrible avg against us in international games.

 

[Varun]

I think Rayudu was picked as an incumbent once it was known that Rohit Sharma was injured.

 

[Varun]

And remember windies are also without their best bowler here, not to mention Gayle.

Why, what happened to Gayle?

And an IPL hack is not the best bowler for anybody.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

I think Rayudu was picked as an incumbent once it was known that Rohit Sharma was injured.

Both are useless.

 

[Varun]

We're batting way too slowly. 20 overs to get 100 while chasing 320...

 

[Justcrazy]

100 / 4

20 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

WI have big chance to win this game

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

WI have big chance to win this game

Strong favorites unless these 2 j7ust finish off the game by themselves.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

We're batting way too slowly. 20 overs to get 100 while chasing 320...

Pace is fine.

Inspite of garbage batting, we are 100 off 20 overs.

Lost too many wickets.

Rayuudu - Hack
Kohli - Out of form/weakness
Dhawan - Slow
Raina - Our best hope got out

 

[Justcrazy]

Benn bowling well so far here

 

[leatherface58]

Even Dhawan is ashamed of that fifty.

 

[Adil_94]

Shikhar Shehzad brilliant strike rate

 

[Varun]

Come on Dhawan speed up.

 

[Adil_94]

Dhoni :Misbah

 

[Varun]

Dhawan suffering from blockitis.

 

[Saurav]

Dhawan looks like a nervous wreck

 

[Justcrazy]

Benn bowling a dream spell here.

 

[Varun]

Game over.

 

[leatherface58]

Horrible knock by MSD.

 

[Adil_94]

MSD gone Misbah-esque knock.

 

[Fastandfurious]

Game.

 

[Adil_94]

Games gone here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Sammy gets Dhoni

 

[OmaIR1]

rare batting failure

 

[Fan2014]

This is our C team so a lose doesn't matter

 

[Varun]

Smash.

 

[dashing_man]

This is our C team so a lose doesn't matter

)

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

This is our C team so a lose doesn't matter

Ohh really this is the Best side India can ever have...full strength

On the other hand Gayle and Narine loss makes WI kind of a B team

 

[Executioner]

Bangladesh played a series against WI not a month back and it looks like India is playing just like us, although India ought to give a better fight in home.

Then again its the first match of the series, expect India to fight back in the next couple of matches.

[Fan2014]

If they our missing Gayle than we are missing Rohit Sharma and if they don't have Narine than we are missing Kuldeep and Ashwin. So this is our C team

 

[Justcrazy]

India require another 196 runs with 5 wickets and 23.0 overs remaining

 

[desi_launda]

lol India A beat WI comfortably and we are getting thrashed

 

[Zeshan547]

Dhawan doing a shehzad here, what a wasteful and selfish inning

 

[Adil_94]

If they our missing Gayle than we are missing Rohit Sharma and if they don't have Narine than we are missing Kuldeep and Ashwin. So this is our C team

Kuldeep hasnt played an ODI yet. Both teams are missing key players so it makes it even

 

[Tridibans_16]

If they our missing Gayle than we are missing Rohit Sharma and if they don't have Narine than we are missing Kuldeep and Ashwin. So this is our C team

Please don't embarass us

We have been outright pathetic in the bowling department. Batsmen can't always make up for our **** poor bowling and chase 300+ everyday. Also, pathetic form from Kohli/ Dhoni.

 

[Convict]

If they our missing Gayle than we are missing Rohit Sharma and if they don't have Narine than we are missing Kuldeep and Ashwin. So this is our C team

By that logic India's victory last year against Australia in the ODIs was against Australia Z

 

[Justcrazy]

119 required of 22 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

required rate is over 8.5

 

[Varun]

Holding is such a tosser.

 

[Adil_94]

That knock did nothing but boost Dhawans stats

 

[Justcrazy]

Dhawan bowled

 

[Varun]

If West Indies play like this they can win the whole series.

 

[Zeshan547]

What a soft dismissal, end's a misbah esquee inning by dhawan, very good inning for boosting his average and stats but pathetic inning for his team in context of the match.

 

[Justcrazy]

I think its over for India now .

 

[mithun_minhas]

India A demolished the same West Indies side.

Our senior team cannot even score 200.
