Australia vs India | Tri-Series | 2nd ODI | Melbourne | January 18, 2015 |

[Shaheerthe2nd]

at least australia can have solace in the fact the indian bowlers will also be bowling on this pitch

 

[iHammad]

Rohit on 98

 

[Bhaijaan]

Raina gone. Lame shot.



Tailunt still there.

 

[iHammad]

Raina gone! Pulled it straight to mid on, totally threw it away

 

[iHammad]

Now Dhoni has to look to bat 15 overs and finish well, next in would be Axar Patel

 

[badsha001]

Raina gone. Lame shot.



Tailunt still there.

Tailunt is still better than ur whole pakistan team

 

[Justcrazy]

Raina gone

 

[Justcrazy]

Dhoni in now

The legend in action

 

[iHammad]

Rohit 99

 

[Bhaijaan]

Tailunt on 99* with a super classy wristy single. Goodness me, what elegance.

 

[Bhaijaan]

The greatest ODI finisher of all times is here.

 

[Tridibans_16]

Tailunt is still better than ur whole pakistan team

He is an Indian

 

[Bhaijaan]

Tailunt has only 5 ODI hundreds.

2 of them are double hundreds.

1 of them is 264!

 

[Tridibans_16]

Now Dhoni will tuk tuk for the next 5 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

shotttttttttttttttttttttttt by Dhoni

 

[iHammad]

Short and wide, Dhoni 4

 

[Zeshan547]

Tailunt is still better than ur whole pakistan team

hold on your horses mate, we shall see who is how much talented, come the feb 15, my pick is harris sohail to be leading scorer of match if he come to bat before 30th over so that he have enough time.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Awesome hundred this!

Well done man!

 

[nish_mate]

Has the Indian population in Island trebled since our last tour??

 

[iHammad]

edged and 100 for Rohit Sharma, well played

 

[Aman]

Rohit Sharma, the Aussie killer.

 

[Aman]

4 of Rohit's 6 hundreds have come against the Aussies.

 

[desi_launda]

Kohli gone early...(double) century from Rohit confirmed

you sir are a legend

 

[nish_mate]

Has the Indian population in Island trebled since our last tour??

Sorry Ozland

 

[Aman]

Correction, 3 of his 6.

Statsguru updates it during games.

 

[Tridibans_16]

you sir are a legend

Single hundred won't do..... you said double mate....

Need another 100 from like 50 balls that he will face

 

[iHammad]

7 runs from 2 overs since the Raina wicket

 

[desi_launda]

Lungi dance song in Australia

 

[Bhaijaan]

India could knock Australia out in world cup.

 

[Zeshan547]

Dhoni doing a Misbah?

 

[Justcrazy]

Sharma showing why he is a " talented " batsman

 

[desi_launda]

misbah like innings from dhoni

 

[iHammad]

10 runs from the last 3 overs, Dhoni taking his time to get in

 

[desi_launda]

 

[iHammad]

Faulkner leg side, and 4 for Dhoni

 

[iHammad]

Only 4 from that over, Faulkner came back well to Dhoni

 

[desi_launda]

dhoni hogging the strike

 

[Justcrazy]

199 / 4

39 overs

 

[Junaids]

The curators really are laying on some flat tracks for the batters this summer. If it continues then India and Sri Lanka become serious threats at the World Cup.

I'm pleased for Rohit Sharma. I wish India's selectors would just stick with him at Test level and give him a chance to blossom.

 

[Justcrazy]

200 up for India

 

[jusarrived]

One more wicket we will struggle to play out the overs ...these guys will have to go steady from next 2-3 overs

 

[Bhaijaan]

What a shot!


W-H-A-T A S-H-O-T




#tailunt

 

[desi_launda]

watta pull from rohit

 

[iHammad]

Great pull shot from Rohit, 4

Ohh god stop whining . Irrespective of the pitch is India is one of the favs here

 

[iHammad]

7 off that over, 10 overs left

India will aim to make at least 90 and get to around 296

 

[Justcrazy]

206 / 4

40 overs

 

[battler]

dhoni should atleast rotate the strike if he doesn't feel like going for the boundaries

 

[PB]

Here's to another Rohit 200, come on mate.

 

[Random Aussie]

It's tough to win a CB series , beating aussies in their home ground is no mean feat.

Yes South Africa, England, Pakistan, WI, NZ and I think SL all managed it.

 

[badsha001]

hold on your horses mate, we shall see who is how much talented, come the feb 15, my pick is harris sohail to be leading scorer of match if he come to bat before 30th over so that he have enough time.

For sure mate, i have no doubt that he will be leading scorer with the ball

 

[nish_mate]

Flat pitches home grounds and channel 9 commentary team...anything less than a WC will be a massive choke and underperformance from the Aussies...

 

[Justcrazy]

India should get 280 at least here , if not more.

 

[iHammad]

5 from the faulker over, 9 left

dhoni is about to tee off

Though I like many of your posts and your point of view, at times I really wonder whether you really have been watching cricket since the 80s as you claim to be......

Last match England lost 10 wkts, AUS lost 7 wkts...... was not a flat track
Suddenly today, even without waiting for India's innings to end you have announced its a flat track.... why? Coz some Indians have scored a few runs

 

[nish_mate]

Sharma trolling Sandhu

 

[Tridibans_16]

Yes South Africa, England, Pakistan, WI, NZ and I think SL all managed it.

SL and NZ never won a tri-series in Australia

Pakistan 1996
India 2008
SA 2002
WI Probably in the 80s

 

[iHammad]

3 wides from Sandhu there, bad stuff

 

[desi_launda]

Need atleast 300 to have a shot

 

[equivoque]

Yes South Africa, England, Pakistan, WI, NZ and I think SL all managed it.

How does that matter at all? Indian ODI team has normally underachieved in Australia so fans celebrate it more than routine wins elsewhere. What relevance does other teams' performance has here?

Similar to how Australians celebrated their India series victory a lot more than their success in, for example, SL.

Struggling to see your point here.

 

[Thivagar]

Sandhu bowling Offbreaks

 

[nish_mate]

Sandhu wearing full sleeves...hiding something...watch that elbow

 

[Firebreaker]

Sandhu is a trundler

 

[iHammad]

8 from the over, liking the slower balls from Sandhu

 

[PB]

Need atleast 300 to have a shot

All we need to do is get Warner out and we're good. The rest of the batsmen will get themselves out.

 

[Justcrazy]

219 / 4

42 overs

There's just been no lateral movement of the ball all summer off the pitch. None.

 

[iHammad]

8 overs left, if India get 80 more then end up with 299

 

[desi_launda]

Sandhu's offcutters getting a lot of bounce

 

[Tridibans_16]

SL and NZ never won a tri-series in Australia

Pakistan 1996
India 2008
SA 2002
WI Probably in the 80s

Add to that England 2007 :morgan

 

[Bhaijaan]

Smart batting by tailunt.

 

[desi_launda]

poor over rate

 

[Firebreaker]

So Sanjay Manjrekar is saying that South Africa is the only challenging team for India in league stage

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 35 runs already , sensible batting here.

 

[Tridibans_16]

There's just been no lateral movement of the ball all summer off the pitch. None.

So? For the past many years Aussia pitches have been like this for ODIs

 

[iHammad]

Shot by Rohit, 4 to third man! Late glide

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

once sharma opens up 350 may be possible

 

[nish_mate]

Thank goodness channel 9 got bumble to break their suck up Australia monotone

 

[Justcrazy]

Will smith be fined for the over rate here ?

 

[desi_launda]

Dhoni in t20 mode
