Australia [389/4] beat India [338/9] by 51 runs in the 2nd ODI

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

What a catch

 

[MP2011]

What a catch to dismiss Kohli!

 

[Rana]

Big wicket but he’s played a very good Hand here

 

[Madplayer]

335 + has never been chased in Australia by anyone.

It has proved to be a fairly ordinary knock now that he is out. He was going at under a run a ball a for the better part of his innings chasing a total of almost 400. And now he is out.

 

[MP2011]

That's why it's really difficult to hit across the line against someone like Hazlewood.

 

[watson367]

great catch

 

[Gullycricket]

Chal Nikal

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Unpopular opinion but Kohli and Rahul have let the game get away from them. Strike rate of 100 each while consuming so many overs was going to get too much in the end.

A bit of risk taking early on was in order.

 

[watson367]

lets see what pandya has to offer

 

[Madplayer]

This is the time for Pandya to prove his worth. Lets see if he can pull this off. So far most of his belligerent innings have come when the match was gone and he had nothing to lose.

 

[Gullycricket]

I think Eng and Aussies are taking ODI cricket to another level with their hitting prowess. Sub-continental sides are still stuck on last decade of technique etc

Yes

 

[Titan24]

Key wicket for Aus and what a catch. Kohli was well set for another century but, was trying to up the anti for the team as Rahul isnt doing much more than run a ball either

 

[watson367]

I think Eng and Aussies are taking ODI cricket to another level with their hitting prowess. Sub-continental sides are still stuck on last decade of technique etc

they are naturally better athletes, so they always have an edge.

In their home patta condtions ? Sure.

Whats ironic is that its the subcontinental teams the focus more on whiteball cricket.

 

[MP2011]

Poor innings from Rahul so far.

 

[Madplayer]

Not good batting so far by KL Rahul as well. Going at under a run a ball when RRR is over 11.
At least maintain 120 SR at this stage.

 

[tyron_woodley]

Not true at all. Desis just need to change their diets and actually train. Aussies train hard. Nothing to do with them being 'naturally' better. They aren't.

After 34 overs they were ahead of Australia's score.

 

[Ab Fan]

Time for a big finish for Koffee with Karan duo .

 

[Titan24]

Maybe a bit harsh but, I think Rahul is bit of a culprit in Kohli’s wicket as well. Kohli was meant to be going till the end but needed someone with bit more intent on the other side. However, Rahul so far has scored 38 off 40 balls.

 

[MHN1293]

After 34 overs they were ahead of Australia's score.

Guess pandya has to do a maxwell here and rahul a labishagne.

 

[watson367]

Not true at all. Desis just need to change their diets and actually train. Aussies train hard. Nothing to do with them being 'naturally' better. They aren't.

The average Aussie will always be more athletic.

 

[MP2011]

Pandya is taking his own sweet time to settle down.

 

[Thunderbolt14]

This kind of good fielding shows you how flat the wicket is.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

After 34 overs they were ahead of Australia's score.

Means nothing. They had to be ahead of their own capability to chase- which I am afraid looks too big a mountain left to climb.

 

[watson367]

Almost 12 an over now

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

What is KL Rahul waiting for?

 

[tyron_woodley]

Do you live abroad?

Dude I live in Australia. I am familiar with most ethnicities. Yea if desis actually out down the curry and eat plus train properly, I have seen many excel in athletic events.

England has perennially been a mediocre nation in terms of atheltics until they brought in imports from other countries. True British people are poor athletes.

 

[imshally81]

6666

Game is still on...

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

6 by Pandya. What a shot.

 

[Madplayer]

159 runs from 80 balls is not impossible. Really tough but not impossible. But these two are batting slowly.

Finally something from Pandya.

 

[MP2011]

What a cross batted hoik from Pandya off Hazlewood!

 

[Rana]

Time for a big finish for Koffee with Karan duo .

Aaj maine kiya

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Pandya has tremendous forearms

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Are you planning to watch it in the stadium? Where do you live?

 

[Suleiman]

With Pandya out there this is chaseable. He needs to do what Maxwell did earlier with bat.

yeah but thats if. Unless a cultural reformation happens and people start caring about their health, things will stay the same.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

The average Aussie will always be more athletic.

Oh please, you need to get out of desi mentality that goras are superior. The British rule is over, you can stop saluting the queen. You probably support Australia during Australia vs Pakistan match

 

[tyron_woodley]

The average Aussie will always be more athletic.

Yea due to diet and actually training.not because they are naturally better.
Put down the curry and train then I am certain the results will be very similar.

Desi food tastes too good so the boys just can't refrain from eating them. You are what you eat. You need to be mentally strong to be an elite athelte.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Rahul can't even take a single lol

 

[Thunderbolt14]

I don’t think Pandya will play as well as yesterday. Happy to be proven wrong.

 

[MP2011]

Still no intent from Rahul

 

[tyron_woodley]

Are you planning to watch it in the stadium? Where do you live?

How man lol? Can't go to Gabba stadium. All shut down.

 

[MP2011]

3 consecutive dots from Rahul now

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Chris Rahul hits a six

 

[imshally81]

6666
This time is Rahul

 

[tyron_woodley]

yeah but thats if. Unless a cultural reformation happens and people start caring about their health, things will stay the same.

I understand. They are though. Lots of things have changed post 2010. Will get better and better in the future.

 

[MP2011]

Finally a huge six from Rahul.

 

[Rana]

Starc lol

Him and Saini seem to be in the same bubble

 

[watson367]

They "naturally" care about their diet and train. Hope you get my point.

 

[MP2011]

Another dot now. This is not how you do it.

 

[Titan24]

Top 4 did play at SR of over 100. Needed someone from no 5 onwards to play Maxwell/Smith kind of knock with SR of 160-200. Rahul have struggled so far. Even after this 6 he is run a ball.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

This is not going to help lol. 4 dot balls and a boundary.

 

[watson367]

Oh please, you need to get out of desi mentality that goras are superior. The British rule is over, you can stop saluting the queen. You probably support Australia during Australia vs Pakistan match

I don't salute anyone. And i hate goras as much as any ordinary Pakistani. I live in Lahore and will not trade it for any place in the world.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

These guys learned nothing from peak Dhoni.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

How was KL Rahul batting in IPL? Was he struggling there as well?

 

[imshally81]

Only 4 extras till now... Major improvement

 

[MP2011]

Another dot from Rahul.

 

[tyron_woodley]

They "naturally" care about their diet and train. Hope you get my point.

Yes but c'mon you should know. How good does desi food tastes. I am not going to lie, Pakistani food is absolutely delicious but I never eat it because I get diarrhoea hehe. So I am lucky in that sense. It allows me to train hard and be more atheltic as I have no choice but to eat healthy food.

Honestly nothing beats a lean steak anyway. Or mince beef lean.

This is just me. I am not even a part time cricketer anymore. imagine what actual talented desi players can do if they properly train and eat healthy

 

[MP2011]

Lyon commentating.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

I think it is safe to say that this Indian kit looks and feels 'manhus'.

 

[MP2011]

Match losing innings from Rahul.

 

[MP2011]

Another six from Rahul.

 

[Rana]

KL keeps making it up with sixes. Lack of strike rotation however

 

[MP2011]

Even 12 an over won't do now.

 

[MenInG]

Virat Kohli's wicket

[Titan24]

Sorry to say but, even with all these antique this is just pathetic innings from Rahul at no 5 while his team is chasing 390. Unless he does something exceptional here it’s inexcusable from him as well as management who plays him in the middle order without developing his game for the number.

 

[imshally81]

Tuk tuk and bang

lol living abroad has made you weak. Lakkar hazam pathar hazam.

 

[Madplayer]

The problem is way too many dots

 

[MP2011]

Pathetic batting from Rahul.

 

[Forward Defensive Push]

This guy's good!

 

[watson367]

13 an over, india need to turn on t10 mode.

 

[tyron_woodley]

lol living abroad has made you weak. Lakkar hazam pathar hazam.

Lol yea. Man Pakistani food tastes wise damn is unbelievable.

 

[MP2011]

Pandya looking totally clueless against Cummins

 

[Kashmirilion]

Na Ishq mein na pyaar mein.....…

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Pathetic batting by Pandya and Rahul

 

[Rana]

Pandya lol
