[Blitz]

Great shot

 

[USIND]

I'm loving it

 

[NJamal]

by Prior

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Good shot for four.

BBC weather.

Monday -> White cloud
Tuesday -> Light rain

 

[NJamal]

Prior is the key man now.

 

[shan]

That was out

 

[Incognito]

It has to be admitted, Kumar's bowling jaffas, swinging it like waqar younis with the pace of danish kaneria!

 

[IAJ]

England shouldn't panic here. They have still 5 wickets in hand!

 

[NJamal]

Sree clown to share the new ball

 

[WorldChampions2011]

Nasser says Trott was plumb. Bad Luck PK. Slap on the face of BCCI for opposing the UDRS.

 

[NJamal]

Nasser saying it was plumb

 

[IgnitedMind]

Its sad umpires are not accused when decision is not in india's favor. That was plumb!!

 

[NJamal]

BCCI now you want DRS or not?

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

India need to take a few wickets now.

 

[Fawad2010]

not out that was

 

[NJamal]

Shot by Prior for

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Prior hits a beautiful shot for four.

 

[ShaunMarshRules]

IJL Trott in the middle just extinguished those chances of England bowling tonight

Almost perfect jinx there, Whippy. Erasmus bailed you out, and India's own refusal to use DRS. For mine, I think Hawkeye is actually more reliable than Hotspot - neither is perfect.

 

[NJamal]

Each run scored is taking the game further away from India.

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

272/5

 

[ShaunMarshRules]

Its sad umpires are not accused when decision is not in india's favor. That was plumb!!

That's what you get for refusing to have reviews of LBWs. Not every umpire can have an exceptional series like Rauf is having.

 

[James]

BBC weather.

Monday -> White cloud
Tuesday -> Light rain

More than enough time for a result. Trott is injured and Prior/the tail are there for a laugh. England will be bowling most of tomorrow.

[IAJ]

It has to be admitted, Kumar's bowling jaffas, swinging it like waqar younis with the pace of danish kaneria!

Yaar with that pace the new ball will swing. I am sure if Umar Amin or Younis Khan take the new ball they will also swing it big.

 

[IgnitedMind]

That's what you get for refusing to have reviews of LBWs. Not every umpire can have an exceptional series like Rauf is having.

So people did not blame umpires for wrong decisions before DRS!! its 3rd wrong decision by erasmus ..pathetic stuff!!!

With or with out DRS umpires should give correct decisions..just because somebody did not take DRS..umpires cannot get away with wrong decisions.

 

[IgnitedMind]

Nas saying everybody did the right thing except bell!!

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

 

[NJamal]

Trott

 

[chaiwala]

 

[IgnitedMind]

What a ball!!!!

:

 

[WorldChampions2011]

"Praveen is an artist with the new ball"

 

[Poison]

Pitch playing some tricks here with the new ball, brute to get rid of Trott.

 

[Ruri]

No loss there, counted him out from the start, he ate up two overs, worth it.

 

[James]

This Praveen Kumar bloke is a monster with the new ball. Absolute tank. I know Morgan is strictly a middle-order LOI player and Trott is injured but they were two pretty much unplayable deliveries. The Pakistani-style swinger was unplayable too, and deserved a wicket

 

[Fawad2010]

50 odd runs and ENG will feel comfortable I think

 

[NJamal]

To chase anything above 250 on this pitch is next to impossible. If Kumar's spin bowling can cause such damage then imagine what will English bowlers do?

 

[James]

No loss there, counted him out from the start, he ate up two overs, worth it.

He scored two in a partnership of a few which is better than zero, worth it every time.

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

Bresnan in

 

[chaiwala]

PK swinging it like crazy

 

[USIND]

The game is alive 272/6

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Kumar strikes again trott out, and Bresnan in.

 

[Ruri]

Erasmus must hate PK.

 

[NJamal]

272/6

 

[NeVerMind]

How's Rauf been this game?

 

[Blitz]

82.6


Kumar to Bresnan, no run, 129.5 kph, another lbw appeal, another refusal from umpire Erasmus.


Thats a bit extra by cricinfo, no?

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

Sresanth bowling

 

[IgnitedMind]

Erasmus again

it would have gone either way though..

 

[chaiwala]

kyu extra, Blitz? That's exactly what happened...

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Lead of 300 looking hard now.

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

272/6

 

[Blitz]

Overthrows.

 

[Poison]

How's Rauf been this game?

Brilliant.

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

2 runs

 

[NJamal]

Overthrows 1 extra run to Prior

 

[ShaunMarshRules]

With or with out DRS umpires should give correct decisions..just because somebody did not take DRS..umpires cannot get away with wrong decisions.

If your board sabotages technology to make umpires lives harder, don't expect any sympathy. No-one's denying it was plumb, but why should we castigate the umpires overly much when they've been denied tools?

That said, Asad Rauf leading the way. Never knew he was this good before this series.

 

[James]

That said, Asad Rauf leading the way. Never knew he was this good before this series.

Because he never was. Now he is.

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Prior id a good batsman, underrated a little.

 

[Blitz]

Sreesanth having words.

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

excellent shot

 

[NJamal]

by Prior

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Good shot.

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

Pk back in to the attack

 

[James]

Underrated a lot. Got a better test match batting average than Strauss, Collingwood and Morgan.

 

[JibranAnsari]

looks like india will be chasing 320 only

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Praveen back to cause trouble.

 

[samplepiece]

Seems like we will have to chase 350 and we will lose by 125

 

[Blitz]

I heard a sound!

 

[NJamal]

Lol Gavaskar

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Brilliantly bowled.

 

[NJamal]

Kumar is a bit overexcited

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Praveen Kumar looking lethal.

 

[NJamal]

Bresnan off the mark

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Lead by 281

 

[IAJ]

Lol at Gavaskar: "that is out, that should be out"! Umpire unmoved.

What is wrong with this guy?

Come on mate...1 decision...yes!! But 4 wrong decisions already..and its been 3 days only and criticism towards the umpire???? I remember billy gave one decision in our favor in the first test..and everybody was criticising him..the BCCI..including commies in sky... I totally agree that we are wrong in not taking DRS..but its no excuse for so many wrong decisions!!I am not complaining..coz I have no right to because we did not take DRS..but I am just saying Erasmus has been pathetic and should be right fully criticized..

 

[ShahidAfridi_rulez]

Bresnan off the mark after 7 deliviries

 

[USIND]

Parveen doing an excellent job there

 

[Blitz]

Lol at Gavaskar: "that is out, that should be out"! Umpire unmoved.

What is wrong with this guy?
