England v India | 2nd Test | July 17-21 2014 | Lord's

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Kohli just 25

Common champ you are much better than this ...

 

[hur rizvi]

Ooops Pujara is

Well played though

 

[nish_mate]

bollks again

 

[Adil_94]

Absolute Jaffa to get rid of Pujara. Thats what happens when you pitch it up.

 

[lilFlip]

Unbelievable

How can u miss that after playing so well after 100odd deliveries

 

[Boi]

Pujara gone. Don't see the others lasting long on this pitch.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

So at max 200-250 on cards ... hope our bowlers can cash in on this track ....

 

[Varun]

What a ball.

 

[Batman_DB]

Pujara gone can india score 200?

 

[Adil_94]

Plunks looks well down on pace compared to last week.

Where is Onions hed be a handful on this type of pitch.

 

[Sandeep]

150 should be a realistic target from here on

 

[nish_mate]

Game over.....India to fold up in next 10 overs...
Bring on Bhuvi......

 

[Varun]

Dhoni - we have 220 to win from 235 balls. Do your thing.

 

[London_Lahori]

Pujara, I was expectant

 

[Adil_94]

If you bowl a full length the pitch will do the rest

 

[London_Lahori]

India will struggle for 200 here...

 

[hur rizvi]

What a ball to dismiss a set Pujara!

TBF that Wasnt an unplayable delivery

 

[Varun]

Bet Dhoni will play that moronic shovel shot and get himself out.

 

[Sandeep]

Oh yeah Jadeja vs Anderson up next. I'm ready

 

[Sakss]

England on top here

 

[Adil_94]

Plunkett looks mediocre

 

[Sandeep]

TBF that Wasnt an unplayable delivery

The previous ball set him up. Creating confusion. You see series of balls does the trick to get test batsmen out, not necessarily jaffas all the time

 

[hur rizvi]

I would say that shot was a bit lose from Pujara, left gap b/w Bat and Pad, But cant blame him, on this sort of pitch you are never in as a batsman

 

[Sakss]

If Misbah played so many balls like Pujara did , everyone would've been on top of him...

 

[hur rizvi]

Take of plunkett and bring on Broad or Anderson

 

[Sakss]

Plunkett looks mediocre

Well he is that..

Finn would be a better choice

 

[hur rizvi]

If Misbah played so many balls like Pujara did , everyone would've been on top of him...

Not on this sort of pitch, Every one would have praised him for putting up a fight

 

[Sakss]

Not on this sort of pitch, Every one would have praised him for putting up a fight

Man trust me these Misbah haters cant never praise the legend

 

[the Great Khan]

i'm a bit two minded about this tactic of creating a green pitch. If india produced a rank turner every1 would be screaming.
Then again Indians can bowl on this and bell and co are rubbish. (other than Moeen who'll make a massive hundred inshallah lol)

 

[hur rizvi]

Moeen ali into the attack, Easy passage for Dhoni to score runs

 

[Varun]

It seems you can't surpass 30 on this pitch. Wish we had Laxman.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Plunkett is already struggling for pace.

 

[hur rizvi]

Man trust me these Misbah haters cant never praise the legend

Well obviously haters would never cease to hate

 

[Adil_94]

Plunkett came into the SL series as a bowler who could hit 90 MPH but now he is trundling at low 70s

 

[nish_mate]

Moeen bhai ka Halwaa- tumhaari dukaan poore din khuli raahe

 

[hur rizvi]

Plunkett came into the SL series as a bowler who could hit 90 MPH but now he is trundling at low 70s

Even if he bowls 100mph he would still be rubbish, he lacks common sense of bowling to go with an ugly action

 

[hur rizvi]

That was close

 

[Adil_94]

Even if he bowls 100mph he would still be rubbish, he lacks common sense of bowling to go with an ugly action

Yeah seems like Sami just cant hit the ball on a consistent length. Tries too many things ends up bowling a lot of tripe

 

[saiyan0312]

Pujara was the wicket to take. Without him i doubt india will score over 200. Man I am looking forward to seeing how many does dhoni score here.

 

[Sandeep]

Moeen bhai comes and Dhoni looking at home.. Thank you Moeen bhai

 

[Varun]

Pujara was the wicket to take. Without him i doubt india will score over 200. Man I am looking forward to seeing how many does dhoni score here.

He needs to put that stupid shovel shot away and he might get a 40 if he's lucky.

 

[lilFlip]

It seems you can't surpass 30 on this pitch. Wish we had Laxman.

Yeah well last time India didn't cross 300 mark in 8 innings iirc and vvs was there

 

[hur rizvi]

He needs to put that stupid shovel shot away and he might get a 40 if he's lucky.

Dhoni needs to be aggressive against Moeen and Plunkett

 

[Varun]

Yeah well last time India didn't cross 300 mark in 8 innings iirc and vvs was there

He was over the hill after South Africa 2010. Scored a 50 here at Lord's though.

 

[Sandeep]

Anderson must be waiting for Jadeja

 

[Robert]

Doughman comes in. Broad has an excellent record against him. So Chef puts the part-time spinner on against the Indian skipper.

 

[biggestdravidfan]

Rahane is our last hope.

 

[Adil_94]

FTB Dhoni gone

 

[Sandeep]

Broad does it.. The customary Dhoni wicket

 

[lilFlip]

Umpire gifted 1 run

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Dhoni needs to be aggressive against Moeen and Plunkett

This. They have to expose the weaknesses of this English attack.

 

[hur rizvi]

Dhoni oh dhoni, I could have bet my house on him not crossing 10 on this pitch

 

[Sandeep]

He simply can't bat at this level, Dhoni..

 

[Varun]

Pathetic.

 

[lilFlip]

Doughman comes in. Broad has an excellent record against him. So Chef puts the part-time spinner on against the Indian skipper.

da seer

 

[Sakss]

Dhoni OUT

 

[lilFlip]

Jadeja being booed and chanted

 

[Robert]

As usual, Dhonut is gobbled up by the 'Bro.

 

[Sandeep]

Jadeja should go for almighty slogs.. Otherwise he won't even cross Dhoni

 

[hur rizvi]

Sir Jaddu is in, Bring on Anderson

 

[nish_mate]

Fun time.....

 

[Adil_94]

Dhoni in Tests is useless on any track that swings seams or bounces

 

[London_Lahori]

It's Jadeja time!!

 

[Adil_94]

Jadeja getting booed onto the pitch

 

[Varun]

Haha this adds some flavour.

 

[Varun]

Rahane is still there; our only hope.

 

[Sandeep]

The good natured English crowd welcomes Jadeja

 

[nish_mate]

Jadeja getting booed onto the pitch

What pathetic lot these English

 

[hur rizvi]

Jadeja should go for almighty slogs.. Otherwise he won't even cross Dhoni

He is a better test bat compared to Dhoni

 

[saiyan0312]

He needs to put that stupid shovel shot away and he might get a 40 if he's lucky.

) ) ) Well dhoni cant play like a proper batsman so the best thing from would be to bat like virat did. With swagger

 

[saiyan0312]

And he is gone. amazing. I just leave for 2 minutes.

 

[Adil_94]

What pathetic lot these English

So called patrons of fairplay they only like it when Asians are subservient to them. As soon as you stand up their Asli Roop comes ouy

 

[Robert]

Where is Onions hed be a handful on this type of pitch.

Injured, I believe. But they didn't know what the track would be like until after they picked the squad anyway. Still, Anderson should have had them eight down by now.

 

[hur rizvi]

Please give us Anderson v Jadeja, cook

 

[Sandeep]

How long before Dhoni hangs his boots?

 

[nish_mate]

So called patrons of fairplay they only like it when Asians are subservient to them. As soon as you stand up their Asli Roop comes ouy

Did the MCC lot take special lessons alst night on how to booo??

 

[saiyan0312]

Jadeja to make a surprising match winning hundred.

 

[Adil_94]

Did the MCC lot take special lessons alst night on how to booo??

Its a typical English thing to do whinge and boo a national trait.

 

[hur rizvi]

Take Moeen off for God's sake

 

[Robert]

What pathetic lot these English

It's just the same as booing the villain in a Christmas pantomine. Means nothing. Chill out.
