England v India | Match 38, World Cup | Edgbaston | 30th June, 2019 | Match Thread

Big test for Kohli

Failed CWC2015 semi final
Failed CT2017 final

Can he chase this 300+ total?
 
lol.....

Man, your comprehension could do with some improvement.

It means Shreyas Gopal is HIGHER in the pecking order than Ash.

Geez man.

Your whining in every single thread has become utterly annoying. No Gopal has no place in this team now, may be we can try him out in bilaterals but most certainly not in tourneys. This is just one league match, stop whinging.
 
Rahul averages 37 at list A with an SR of 73 after 60 list A matches. That's pretty bad stats compared to a lot of the other options India could have selected. Maybe he just struggles to adapt to the ODI format.

Regional favoritism display in case of gopal.
 
Lol. Its selectors job. Not that of captain.

LOL if you think Lallu Panju Indian selectors have any real power. Ganguly used to get in youngsters of his choice and Dhoni is famous for kicking out oldies and getting young players of his choice. Kohli himself got the head coach sacked, so everyone knows what power the Indian captains have.

You NOOB.

I am not saying Gopal has to be in the squad.

But IF we were to pick another guy, Gopal gets the first shot and only then Ashwin (due to latest performance).

Now focus on cricket.
 
So he has done that over 10 times ?

Interesting.

What???

Kohli is suppose to be the greatest chaser ever, and if he is to be the greatest ODI player ever then he has to chase this sort of total in the WORLD CUP.

KL Rahul is the next Kohli blah blah. Is your client still laughing his way to bank? [MENTION=142162]Napa[/MENTION] :inti
 
We just need to bat out 50 overs and ensure that our NRR doesn't get smashed. Just keep ticking on. They need to swallow their pride and accept a respectable defeat.
 
This approach will hurt india in remaining games.. Sure losing here impacts Pak chances but india's momentum will be gone

Buddy i do think they will lose with over 150 runs margin if they play as they are playing now...

You are saying "This sort of total" without understanding that the world cup record for successful chase is 329
 
How many times has kohli done it?

I can remember a bilateral game between England and India in early 2017, India were 59-4 chasing 360 odd. Kohli won the game from there. His highest ODI score came chasing 300 plus against Pakistan. I can remember him playing a part in chasing 300 plus vs Sri Lanka in less than 40 overs or so

Just a few times off the top of my head.

You really think a Pakistan player is capable of doing what I said above or even chasing 300 plus in this game ? Lol.
 
Why not.. If their run rate gets a hammering.. Surely they can be out.. Do explain why u think they still wont be out

It will take around a minimum difference of 300 runs in three matches in order to take over India. That's very unlikely to happen considering the next two matches are against minnows.
 
Maybe they need 10 overs for a sighter and lose shine of ball :)

Lol. Deep down they know they are a limited batting side. With the likes of dhoni and jadhav , they cannot afford to go hard in the PP and that has hurt our ODI batting. This team is very reliant on the bowling to destroy teams.

He is still batting now and winning a WC is enough for him. He doesn't care about being the GOAT.
 
This is still a very good batting track but 339 still feels a bridge too far.

If they take this partnership to 150 then a small maybe.

India already has 11 points. Any team with 12 or more points is going to be in the semis, as only 3 other teams (Australia, England and NZ) can end with 12+ points. So India has to lose all 3 remaining games against England, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh to be eliminated.

It will hurt their confidence if they lose by a big margin
 
Nasser Hussain saying that pitch is two paced and woakes bowling well. India should try ensure no more wickets lost and get to 300 by 46 th over
 
lol at plastic indian fans who want Indian team to lose just to throw Pakistan out of the tournament. You can never expect sportsmanship from these fans. :inti

That's what i meant... Today's loss to england may hurt pak chances but if they lose today it will also impact inia's momentum and they can lose against SL n BD
