Good over by Bresnan, Vinay Keeps the strike

) )

 

[cricketworm]

for Indian fans , somdev just broke murray and leading 3-2 in the first set

Nice. Murray is in the form though ... will take a lot out of Somdev.

 

[Sledger]

Last over.

 

[Atif]

Single taken

 

[cricketworm]

Good. Just finish 20 overs.

 

[Atif]

Dot ball, good bowling

 

[Bhaijaan]

The two Kumars need to do something

 

[Sledger]

Great ball. Bowled.

 

[NJamal]

P.Kumar

 

[cricfan967]

) India really choked these last few overs

 

[USIND]

Bowled.

 

[Atif]

Bowled him Praveen

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

5 balls remaining, get the 2 wickets

 

[Bhaijaan]

This Jade dude's a smart bowler

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Slower ball takes out PK..
..
Ninth wicket gone..165

 

[cricfan967]

Excellent bowling

 

[RWAC]

Good bowling!

 

[Sledger]

Really bad finish for India here.

 

[cricketworm]

Hehehe Legend walks in. Munna that is.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

ok now just 1 wicket needed Dernbach 4fer come on

 

[Atif]

Patel the last man in

 

[jusarrived]

Great,, may win one set..but don't think he has the ability to win 3...
Any ways...Good Luck to him..Hope he proves me wrong..

even a set would be great . Murrays fav surface too

 

[NJamal]

Last man in

 

[RWAC]

$500 that India will last the full 20 overs. Anyone?

EDIT: HAHA the bet is off

 

[Sledger]

India bowled out.

 

[cricfan967]

India bowled out )

 

[jusarrived]

lol bowled out

 

[Looney]

all

 

[Atif]

India bowled out for 165. England need 166 to win.

 

[USIND]

Pathetic tail-enders.

165 all out.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

4fer for Jade

 

[Bhaijaan]

165 ALL OUT

 

[cricfan967]

$500 that India will last the full 20 overs. Anyone?

Sure .

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Munaf goes..
and England need 166...We have game...

 

[RWAC]

 

[Sledger]

166 needed.

 

[cricketworm]

and legend is gone! Facepalm at the end. Good come back by England, helped by some idiotic temperament.

 

[RWAC]

Sure .

Too late. The bet was off the moment he got out

 

[NJamal]

India all out for 165, lol

 

[James]

Good comeback and superb figures for Jade

Still need to bat really well to have a chance

 

[Sledger]

A decent total. If Indian spinners bowl well they can defend it.

 

[RWAC]

I would have liked them to get to 170 just for the psychological advantage. Still 165 is a good score. Considering the wicket is getting slower and we got PK, Munna and Kumar.

 

[khalil1986]

good total

 

[mithun_minhas]

India should have made 180 easily on this pitch. Pathetic end to an excellent start.

India have once again been bowled out by England

 

[MRSN]

great finish by England, India lost 9 wickets for something like 60 in last 9 overs.

 

[Looney]

if dernbach takes a wicket on first ball next match , will it be a hattrick ?

 

[Hash]

Very doable.

If we get off to a good start, the job is more than half done with Indian shoulders dropping as per usual.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Pathetic tail-enders.

165 all out.

Munaf is probably the worst tailender ever.

Disappointed with Kohli and Rohit. Never make use of the chances that they get provided with

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Ashwin and Rohit Sharma will be a threat, they are good spinners. But I think England will chase it down if India can't purchase any spin from this pitch, Bhajji and Ojha would have been useful today.

 

[Hash]

if dernbach takes a wicket on first ball next match , will it be a hattrick ?

No

Has to be the same match

Could be different innings in a test match but it doesn't carry forward to different matches.

 

[Looney]

Pathetic tail-enders.

165 all out.

Was said 160 is competitive on this pitch .

 

[James]

Very doable.

If we get off to a good start, the job is more than half done with Indian shoulders dropping as per usual.

Ha ha Hash, love it

 

[MRSN]

India should have made 180 easily on this pitch. Pathetic end to an excellent start.

India have once again been bowled out by England

and again before 300

 

[cricfan967]

Don't worry Dravid, you don't have to be fast to bowl for India

 

[Sledger]

Lloyd saying it will be very hard.

 

[Hash]

Ha ha Hash, love it

165 may be competitive but it isn't a winning score. We need 80 odd from the first ten with wickets in hand.....rest will be easy.

 

[NJamal]

Derbach bowled beautifully

 

[AlizeeFan]

India fell short by 20 runs.

 

[velu]

someone in the crowd dressed like Anna Hazare

 

[cricfan967]

Rahane played some really solid shots, great talent

 

[USIND]

Munaf is probably the worst tailender ever.

Disappointed with Kohli and Rohit. Never make use of the chances that they get provided with

Totally agree,Rohit being more pathetic of the two.

 

[jazbati]

Buttler and Bopara the men for me

 

[kashmiri_lad]

even a set would be great . Murrays fav surface too

Murray broke back but Somdev holds his serve.
Its 4-4...

 

[Sledger]

hit for a six apparently. Utter legend. )

 

[James]

165 may be competitive but it isn't a winning score. We need 80 odd from the first ten with wickets in hand.....rest will be easy.

I also found myself supporting Australia today. Ew

We bat all the way down, needs Morgan or Pietersen to fire though, could do with something to build around

60-40 India

 

[IgnitedMind]

The last time somebody debuted along with Dravid, India found somebody special "Saurav Ganguly".

Now Rahane, like Ganguly is the highest scorer for India.

 

[Sledger]

Openers coming out.

 

[USIND]

Was said 160 is competitive on this pitch .

Yes & we have 5 more.

 

[Sledger]

Praveen bowling.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Competitive total this, should be a good contest

 

[USIND]

Good fielding.

 

[Sledger]

Dot to start.

 

[Looney]

phainty on

 

[Bhaijaan]

Top fielding first ball

This is what we need
