England with nothing to lose so hopefully we'll see a better side out there on the field. Their batting performances in the last 3 games has been downright pathetic. Lets see how they go against India

Why is Flintoff still playing btw? I thought he was injured
 
India need batsman to bat well, bowlers to bowl well and fielders to field well in order to win this match.
 
Same pitch as the one used in SA-NZ match. On one side the boundry is small 57 m. Batting under lights will be harder - David Lloyd
 
Question is - do England have the will to play out this match or are they going through the motions - bags packed and boarding passes in hand?

India should take advantage of this...

On the other hand - England would dearly like to keep their ODI advantage intact and India would like to take revenge

interesting battle on the cards
 
Is it just me or all these cheerleaders are same in every match?

or wait a minute ... I think, I should start watching faces as well :p

I know what you mean, the Indian team can get boring to watch....:p
 
Collingwood has promised to buy lap dances for the whole team if England win :p
 
You naughty folks ... let's get back to cricket now .... Ind 9/0 after 1.0 overs .... well played Mr. Extras!
 
the pitch has juice in it but the england bowlers can capitalize yet

We still going 7 runs per over ... no need to panic!

yeah because english guys are giving us extras, but when that stops we haveto scor.

14 overs left and all 10 in bag, that would compensate ...


and with comes your first boundary :D
 
oh no Bhogle. To provide some entertaintment (for him probably) in SA-NZ match he mentioned whopper, Big Mac, joked about a kid eating Gavaskar's icecream, saw a kid in spiderman costume and started saying "Fly kid Fly!"
It feels like he is talking to himself
 
13 overs left and all 10 wickets in kitty .... BIG bonus .. let's see if india can utilise it.


and another four !
 
engalnd saving fredrick and james for later. Alot of teams dont do that. Let's see how this strategy pays off.

He needs to hit 7 more sixes like that .
please not when Bhogle is in the box. Talk about annoying, killing anything good about the shot or excitment

What you don't like about him? He's perhaps the most educated of entire lot you hear in front of mike today ....
 
Ind 70-0 after 8
good start there. now Uthappa Yuvi and Dhoni can also come and swing their arms

he might be the most educated or most knowledgeable. he is irritating and boring for me. Doesn't provide me any entertaintment. it just sounds like he is writing some boring article

He surely write junk, no doubt! But I love hearing him ... he seem to have big range of topics to talk about. Not many land up in commentary job after graduating from IIM Ahm.
 
Purplehaze ,u r right . He took this commentary job because of his passion for the game .
 
Sehwag is on fire! I find it quite amazing how a person who holds the bat all the way from the bottom of the grip is able to hit such forceful strokes throught the off side.
 
We're getting smashed all over the park today. Come on England do something!!
 
12 off the over
Ind 110-0 after 12 overs. should get atleast 190 from here
 
Ghambir should get out and bring Uthappa in. His batting is much better to watch too
