Australia v India l Warm-Up | Cardiff | June 04, 2013

[Ashraful_Rox]

lol! too funny... Realistically, I'd have India to score 200 and have the bowlers to take 3-4 good wickets before Australia finish this off to gain some kind of practice and confidence

Jonhnny Bravo is your avatar, be more optimistic and who >>>>> Bevan is there, India will give a total of 250 + at least.

ghee sugar in your mouth ... I put more weight on realism than optimism

P.S: And I understand why you're an Ashraful fan! )

Logical answer lol

 

[WebGuru]

they'd not let you fail even if you are a brainless stupid like Steven Smith )

You should request the admins to change your nick but don't forget to let us know your new name so we can find you here man my suggestion is Tamim_Sober

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Just wait and watch I will have the last laugh

 

[WebGuru]

What happened to that bounced check? Now they will pay in cash or another check?

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Nah i am thinking more of a _

That's sounds cool!

 

[Sandeep]

C'mon now.. Tamim is not as bad as Sir Farhat

 

[WebGuru]

Tamim_Sober to counter Ashraful_Rox?? lol..

Yea!!!

 

[Sandeep]

Predict the score guys... I'm expecting 210-220 from 50 overs provided these 2 stay for atleast 10 more overs

 

[adarsh_bang]

Nah i am thinking more of a _

I think Don farhat sounds better than farhat bradman ! _

 

[thecricket]

227

 

[WebGuru]

Dinesh is scoring but he looks so unsettled to me most of the time don't know why

 

[adarsh_bang]

good workout for us, karthik got a good run, plus we're batting first, lets see how our bowlers handle the pressure. (except there's no pressure )

 

[HamzaSaeen]

I think Don farhat sounds better than farhat bradman ! _

main hoon don farhat

 

[WebGuru]

Predict the score guys... I'm expecting 210-220 from 50 overs provided these 2 stay for atleast 10 more overs

250 seems possible if these both can stay on pitch till 45h over

 

[adarsh_bang]

Dinesh is scoring but he looks so unsettled to me most of the time don't know why

Thank God someone else thinks the same.... i couldn't agree more!! he could be batting on 2 or 20 or 120, always looks so edgy, unsettled doesnt he??? like he'll get out next ball!

 

[adarsh_bang]

main hoon don farhat

sirf naam hi kaafi hae :thumbup

 

[WebGuru]

main hoon don farhat

You know what Sir Farhat is trending on PP these days i see him almost in every thread. A thread may start with Gary Kristen and will end up on Sir Farhat

 

[Sandeep]

Dinesh is scoring but he looks so unsettled to me most of the time don't know why

good observation. He shuffles across too much when the ball is being bowled! And tries too hard., that may be the reason!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

260

laugh all you want but trust me I am experienced

Mogambo Khush Hua

 

[adarsh_bang]

wow, raina scored a duck!! nice

Yea that's true lets more guys who can agree with us!

 

[Sandeep]

Even Karthik's walking is a little awkward when you actually observe him

 

[adarsh_bang]

good observation. He shuffles across too much when the ball is being bowled! And tries too hard., that may be the reason!

yes, true that, head isn't much steady either, appears to be falling off...

 

[adarsh_bang]

Even Karthik's walking is a little awkward when you actually observe him

like his torso is bigger than his feet... nahi??? :uthappa

 

[WebGuru]

good observation. He shuffles across too much when the ball is being bowled! And tries too hard., that may be the reason!

Maybe it's because he plays ipl most of the time and there you move around here and there to hit the ball specially in IPL the guys are almost dancing on the pitch even saw ABD doing it.

 

[Sandeep]

yes, true that, head isn't much steady either, appears to be falling off...

On the contrary, Dhoni stands solid ready to belt it

 

[Sandeep]

busy little person! lol

 

[WebGuru]

Anybody saw dhoni running it look strange too when he slowly runs for single while bat in both hands.

 

[BaaliSoda]

I will take this fidgetty DK over IPLStars such as Nohit or Vijay.

At least DK puts in an effort to showcase that he is interested in playing competitively. Whereas Guys like Nohit and Vijay gives you an expression that best describes their lack of intensity or temperament.

 

[adarsh_bang]

This just heard in the indian dressing room, Raina (calling paddy upton) 'kuch karo doctor saab, yeh short ball ka darr mujhey maar daalega' :raina

sure enough he got out expecting bounce on the delivery which didnt bounce

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

shot

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

more karthik on fire

I'm with you on this. Rohit doesn't put half the effort like he puts in IPL! Vijay is a hack everywhere. Just had the blessings of Srini mama

never liked vijay, hopefully with team csk out of bcci we will see vijay's back too?? and rohit, well, he's the guy who cant handle the big stage perhaps, which is hard to believe considering how he was awesome back in 2009!!

 

[Sandeep]

lol!! Just now watched it... true

 

[Sandeep]

Boy! Cardiff is a big ground!! Back home most of these shots would've been fours

 

[adarsh_bang]

so the warm ups mean dinesh karthik has guaranteed the spot in the playing 11 i guess

 

[WebGuru]

lol!! Just now watched it... true

Yea noticed it many times lol isn't look strange?

 

[Abhilash]

vijay should never play for INDIA..getting Kohli out was good for us...he got out in that fashion few times......very impressed by karthik....

 

[BaaliSoda]

We need at least 2 top order batters to support DK and MSD in the upcoming games. If only Raina and Kohli could replicate their recent SC form then we can tolerate the failures of other promising batsmen such as Dhawan (most likely to stay in the playing 11 against Saffers) or even Nohit.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Excellent batting by Karthik

 

[BaaliSoda]

ATM, team is too dependent on Kohli then DK and MSD. Need 4 batters and at least 3 decent bowlers to compete well against quality sides like SA/Pak and the rejuvenated WI side.

 

[Abhilash]

Dhoni opened up.. poor marsh

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

As i have said before as long as is there nothing is impossible

Laugh at me now again folks

 

[Sandeep]

Poor Marsh! Dhoni has taken on him!

 

[Sandeep]

More than anything, this partnership has highlighted the lack of depth in Aussie bowling

 

[WebGuru]

Poor Marsh! Dhoni has taken on him!

The total seems to be far more thn your expected score of 220.

 

[Sandeep]

The total seems to be far more thn your expected score of 220.

Who would expect such a recovery from 55-5!

 

[Sandeep]

So DK looks to have cemented his place for now! Kudos

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Excellent hundred by Karthik, well played lad

 

[BaaliSoda]

Consecutive 100s for DK

Well played, mate

 

[Sandeep]

Finally a worthy Chennaite (just a light banter, no offence)

 

[giri26]

More than anything, this partnership has highlighted the lack of depth in Aussie bowling

Australia's lack of a good spinner will be a huge set back for them unless there is some cloud cover. Their bowling is too one dimensional for me.

But again as far as this game goes, I expect Australia to get close to any total India puts up. Indian bowling is so bad.

 

[Saurav]

great ton by KKD

needs to retire n give others a hit now

 

[giri26]

Finally a worthy Chennaite (just a light banter, no offence)

So you are saying Ashwin is not worthy

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

Its T20 gear on...

 

[Sandeep]

Oh boy! MSD on :AAG

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

666666666666.

 

[WebGuru]

Nice effort

 

[Sandeep]

So you are saying Ashwin is not worthy

I was referring to Vijay! Did not mean literally

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

man it was 6

 

[giri26]

I was referring to Vijay! Did not mean literally

I was just joking, I knew what you were trying to say

 

[IAJ]

Lols Dhoni killing them here, come on man, it's only a warm-up, just retire out.

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

I was referring to Vijay! Did not mean literally

I thought you were talking about BCCI Maiyappan, Srinivasan gang

 

[saiyan0312]

great batting by dhoni and dinesh. their top order is the one to worry as you cant expect kohli,dhoni and dinesh to score in every match.

 

[Sandeep]

Amazing maturity by Starc! Johnson despite being so experienced couldn't do a jack

 

[saiyan0312]

slow bouncer and not a bad shot.

 

[Varun]

Can't rely on Dhoni to do this game after game.

 

[saiyan0312]

india might reach 300 or atleast 270 ..... now its up to their bowlers can they defend such a target.

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

Whatever we score our leaking bowlers will give it all away

 

[sticky_wkt]

New ball is the only trouble for India I guess. If they don't loose no more than 5 wickets in first 20 overs, still they can put up a decent score on board!

 

[Shayan]

Another crazy batting performace by India. Incredible effort to get to this total from where they were.

 

[bin_pendi_ka_lota]

Just 2 runns off 4 balls. Thats some effort
