Basically India gave away about 60 runs in trying to bowl yorkers.

Complete failure in executing yorkers. All full tosses and belted for sixes.

Indian bowlers were bowling well until they decided to bowl yorkers.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Worstu

 

[cricketindiafan]

who should he pick instead?

Anyone he picks will not be worse than his CSK gang

 

[desi_launda]

Csk 12 -111-2

 

[desi_launda]

But umesh is expensive )

like whom?give me names of these mythical creatures who are so good at death bowling

 

[cricketindiafan]

Hopefully this is the last time we see Dhoni in a T20I.

One of the worst ever T20 players who through his closeness to Srini has had a 7 year rein as a T20 captain. His T20s career would have been over by2010 anywhere else for the number of failures he's has had in T20.

 

[Saurav]

he isnt?numbers dont lie

Yeah keep believing that just bcoz he didnt play he'd taken a fifer

Pathetic strike rate of 115

He should stick to just odis. . He should retire from tests and t20s

 

[leatherface58]

Lol horrendous death bowling.

 

[desi_launda]

similar to Pakistan's death bowling vs WI in the WC

 

[Saurav]

fielding and Karan's bowling to an extent only good things in that inning

 

[cricketindiafan]

How many T20Is have Aaron, Umesh, Bumrah, Dhawal, Ishwar played for India? Unless you pick them how would you know if they can bowl at the death or not?

 

[DarkLord]

Decent score but not good enough, they're at least 15-20 runs short, with this Indian Batting Lineup anything is possible, I wouldn't be surprised if they chase it down in 17-18 overs.

hes not even a good T20I batsman

I'm talking including ODIs.Death bowling is a concern there too.

Agree about trying Bumrah,Aaron and Pandey.Hopefully we try them soon.Pandey is a CSKite so might get a chance soon

 

[cricketindiafan]

hes not even a good T20I batsman

Yet to hit a 50 despite playing for 7+ years

Every other country changes its T20 captain after a T20 WC, Dhoni remains where he is. Hail Srini Mama

its not a good T20 batting lineup.Only Raina and Kohli are good.Kohli is out of form.

Rayudu would tuk tuk for sure.

He doesn't play regularly even for CSK, so no chance unless Dhoni retires

They don't take T20I seriously at all.most of time ODI side is playing T20

 

[mithun_minhas]

Enough of the negativity by everyone.

Yorkers did not work today. None of the bowlers bowled a good yorker.

I will not read much into this bad performance by bowlers. On a different day, these yorkers will work and Indian bowlers look much much better.

Bhuvi wasnt playing too.Shami mostly gets it right.Trouble is only with 3rd bowler.Whoever we have tried have failed

 

[Saurav]

btw Raina didnt bowl today

 

[cricketindiafan]

Outside Asia, the highest totals we have chased successfully

144 vs Zimbabwe
135 vs Australia
127 vs SA

This is going to end in another embarrassment for Dhoni or rather another feather in the cap for Dhoni

Dhoni will score his usual 20(19)

unless Raina fires,its a loss

 

[Justcrazy]

Finn starts the proceedings

 

[Justcrazy]

3 singles so far

 

[mithun_minhas]

We have MSD lovers and MSD haters.

Ind and Pak fans are similar in many ways.

 

[Justcrazy]

Just 3 from first over

 

[Mr Consistent]

moeen bahi on

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[Mr Consistent]

& next ball

 

[cricketindiafan]

Procession has begun

 

[cricfan967]

Moeen you beaut

 

[Justcrazy]

Ali hammered.

 

[cricfan967]

VK century today anyone?

 

[Electron]

Keep attacking Moeen, wickets falling doesn't matter.

 

[cricfan967]

Ali hammered.

How slow is your stream

 

[Justcrazy]

Ali makes strong comeback , gets a wicket

 

[mithun_minhas]

Fired on the legs, bowled around.

Rahane gone. All he needed to do was to get a tickle and the ball would have gone for 4.

 

[Justcrazy]

How slow is your stream

I was reading another article on net also about boxing

 

[MarkCooper]

Hacka Dhawan needs a score

 

[mithun_minhas]

Dhawan struggling with his timing.

 

[cricketindiafan]

Fired on the legs, bowled around.

Rahane gone. All he needed to do was to get a tickle and the ball would have gone for 4.

All the bowlers needed was to land the yorkers, all Rahane needed was a tickle

All India needs is to see Dhoni's torturous reign as a captain come to an end and this CSK mafia rule to end.

 

[Mr Consistent]

Dhawan strike rate in T20i 95.89

 

[Justcrazy]

12 / 1

2 overs

 

[cricketindiafan]

Csk 12 -111-2

Rest of India 8-69-4 awesome

 

[mithun_minhas]

India need not panic. Just keep scoring around 7 an over and there will be big overs eventually.

 

[Mr Consistent]

by kohli

 

[Electron]

Kohli slogging it like

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Slogging aimlessly

 

[Justcrazy]

Raina will be key to this chase here

 

[mithun_minhas]

Kohli is badly out of form.

Has no timing and looks terrible.

 

[Justcrazy]

18 / 1

3 overs

 

[cricketindiafan]

India need not panic. Just keep scoring around 7 an over and there will be big overs eventually.

Yaar with better teams best we have chased outside Asia is 144 vs Zimbabwe. 180 is 40 runs too many

 

[Mr Consistent]

four runs

 

[Justcrazy]

is expert chaser , he cannot be underestimated

 

[leatherface58]

Kohli getting some Vinay-esque bowling from Woakes.

 

[Mr Consistent]

another boundary by kohli

 

[desi_launda]

 

[battler]

kohli on fiyaa!!

 

[Justcrazy]

Great shot again

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[desi_launda]

ttrick

 

[Saurav]

Dernbach not playing,its not fair

 

[Justcrazy]

30 / 1

4 overs

 

[desi_launda]

Dernbach not playing,its not fair

No Anderson ,evens out

 

[mithun_minhas]

Pitch is a death bed for bowlers.

This is the kind of pitch where even Kohli can look good in his current form.

 

[Electron]

Dhawan is such a hack. Ugly.. ugly batsman.

 

[Justcrazy]

Required rate is under 10 . Indians need to keep it like that

 

[leatherface58]

Hack Dhawan

 

[mithun_minhas]

Dhawan is not a good T20 player. He is a good ODI player.

 

[Mr Consistent]

six runs

 

[Justcrazy]

40 / 1

5 overs

 

[OmaIR1]

indians booing fielders who are stopping runs at the boundary? typical of them, dusri team bhi khel ne ayi hai ...

 

[mithun_minhas]

India needs to keep up this RR until 12 overs and launch after that.

 

[Saurav]

decent start actually.
