Morgan solid as a house today.

 

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

This series is more like a war, look like there wont be any player fit by the end of this series.

 

[USIND]

This series is more like a war, look like there wont be any player fit by the end of this series.

Lol hahahaha ) thats what I was wondering.

 

[W63L35]

This series is more like a war, look like there wont be any player fit by the end of this series.

As long as they get fit by next IPL...... that's all that matters.

 

[malakian]

What's all this about Nasser & Shastri falling out? On star cricket?

 

[TNA]

So.

Can Prior-Bresnan-Broad-Swann to follow push the score up 120 or so runs to set 300 as the target?

If needed: Trott aswell.

 

[KingKhanWC]

So.

Can Prior-Bresnan-Broad-Swann to follow push the score up 120 or so runs to set 300 as the target?

It will depend on when they come out to bat. If these two can bat another 30+ overs it will give England a great chance of a hitting the bowlers around the park for a big lead. If they lose a wicket before the new ball India could come back into the match.

True lol

 

[malakian]

haha, never pick a fight with Michael Holding.

 

[Blitz]

))

at the fielding

 

[KingKhanWC]

Oh oh, this should be out.

 

[insaftak]

run out

Controversy.

 

[malakian]

No way are they going to give someone out...

 

[USIND]

) ) We are here for a wicket....

 

[insaftak]

run out

Controversy.

 

[USIND]

)

 

[duostyle]

Drama

One of them is gone?

 

[Namak_Halaal]

How many times has Holding said "Interesting"?

 

[Blitz]

Oh my!

Its been refered. This is unreal.

 

[Ruri]

Indian sportsmanship in question. Out!

[violet_may]

Sometimes, cricket is too technical.

 

[malakian]

This is a joke.

 

[Noman]

replay the bowl man

 

[12cavalry]

How is Bell run out? What is Gavaskar talking about???!!

 

[violet_may]

Cheapppp way to get out. Wth man!!

 

[shahidafridi123]

I thing he's gone, Bell goes!

 

[KingKhanWC]

cheap move by Dhoni here but it should work.

 

[duostyle]

Dhoni should call him back

If given out course!

 

[12cavalry]

Freebie for India

 

[Blitz]

If Bell is given out, I'm blaming the BCCI

 

[Hash]

Not good sportsmanship by India.

This will not bode well for rest of the series now.

 

[malakian]

Unsporting IMHO

 

[shahidafridi123]

Superb innings from Ian Bell, but a sad way to get out, 137 he made.

 

[W63L35]

Bell should be out!

 

[12cavalry]

Gavaskar should calm down. He might get a heart attack )

 

[Poison]

Very unsporting really if India don't call Bell back.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Wasting precious tea time

 

[duostyle]

Call him back, call him back

 

[shan]

gone

 

[USIND]

lol ) )

 

[ShaunMarshRules]

No sportsmanship questions for me. If you're stupid enough to loiter out of your crease before the umpire calls tea, you deserve to be run out like a tool.

 

[Blitz]

Its been given !!

Oh snap. Crowd gone nuts.

 

[Noman]

what the hell..

 

[shahidafridi123]

OUT!!!!!!!!!! Bell goes and he can't believe it!

 

[malakian]

Unsporting by India, jokers.

 

[violet_may]

Oooo Mmmmmm Ggggggg

This is soo ....wow!

 

[insaftak]

Pathetic stuff by indians

 

[KingKhanWC]

Pathetic from Dhoni and India, look at the mugs smiling while walking off.

 

[Fawad2010]

aah!

thats bs!

 

[USIND]

254/4 lol

 

[pak4life]

cheats!! kumar should be banned

 

[Ruri]

England look murderous. Oh well, as I said, we can bottle it easy.

 

[W63L35]

Warne is talking about spirit of the game....

Warne... buddy, we are talking about INDIANs here!

 

[shan]

big blow that

 

[shahidafridi123]

I'm heartbroken! Come on India, you should have called Bell back.

 

[Noman]

spicy stuff.... Well fun when england bowl..

 

[KingKhanWC]

Brilliant innings by Bell

 

[Hash]

We can just imagine the collective heart attacks across India if Sachin was out like this.

A run out is a run out....when a batsman is attempting a run and fails to make his ground. To run someone out when they and everyone else thought it was tea and they'd started walking off....that's not the spirit of fair competition to me. Very sad to see it happen and what goes round comes round....India will get their comeuppance.

 

[violet_may]

Well, obviously since they can't get anyone out based on bowling performance alone, then what did we really expect?

I probably would have done the same though tbh. Cheap tactics indeed.

 

[TNA]

I wont be surprised if Javagal Srinath is the match refferee.

 

[Poison]

No sportsmanship questions for me. If you're stupid enough to loiter out of your crease before the umpire calls tea, you deserve to be run out like a tool.

If you are not attempting a run at all you should not at all be given out run out. Very poor by Dhoni tbh, if you look at the replay even the players were beginning to walk off carrying the helmets.

 

[W63L35]

This decision may cost England this match!

 

[12cavalry]

Really unfortunate. Bell would be gutted.

 

[malakian]

Hopefully this will **** our lot off & will destroy India even more badly.

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

 

[kamal]

indians resorting to cheating to get a wicket. well what else is new.

 

[in_cutter]

Can't blame Indian's...the batsmen were careless!

 

[violet_may]

Respectful Indians my foot! Lolll

 

[velu]

Usually Ganguly and Sehwag use to get runouts like this

 

[iHammad]

That was totally crazy! Call him back Dhoni!

 

[shan]

Cant blame Indians here, stupid of them to believe that was 4.

 

[Fawad2010]

ENG won't reply back with kindness, expect hostility!

 

[TNA]

Very sad to see it happen and what goes round comes round....India will get their comeuppance.

the way Bell got run out you have to ignore the technicalities of cricket to question the sportmanship and spirit of the game.

 

[StraightHit]

How the hell is that cheating...batsmen duty to be in the crease until umpire has called over or tea. The ball was not dead. Good presence of mind.

What are these ) ) ?

 

[ShaunMarshRules]

If you are not attempting a run at all you should not at all be given out run out. Very poor by Dhoni tbh, if you look at the replay even the players were beginning to walk off carrying the helmets.

I can't just walk out of my crease and assume it is time whenever I want. If the umpires didn't call tea, the batsmen should take the blame. If I'm England, do I really expect the Indian team to not take every advantage they can? For all the moaning of 2008 Sydney, this team plays to win just as much as any other throughout history.

Does anyone really think Warne wouldn't have done the same, for all his preaching? Or that Steve Waugh and Ponting would have called the batsman back? Gilchrist wouldn't have done it, maybe.

By the way, Indian fans may realize now why their team isn't really all that well liked .

 

[12cavalry]

According to Bumble, Dhoni can call the batsman before the next delivery is bowled.

 

[shan]

Seriously guys can you for once put those anti-indian glasses off?

 

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

England wont lose this game but this really shows how pathetic these indians are, and thisnt the first instance they hve done it again nd again.
