ICC WT20 | Group A | India v England at Colombo (RPS), Sep 23, 2012

Brilliant bowling from Swann comes to an end. Very economical in his 4 overs also got the crucial wicket of Kohli.
 
as expected BCCI flexed its financial muscle to get the pitch that they want. pitches were helping fast bowlers until now, this game its a slow and flat wicket helping just spinners. i dont see england winning this game.
 
Why are they insisting so much on bowling short length if its not being affective

looks like excuses are already out... :)))
 
what the hell nazzar is talking here.. yuvi and raina struggle against pace? that too on a pitch that is flat and slow?
 
Good batting by Gautam TBH..I like the fact that he is willing to put in the effort, struggle..and unlike sehwag...

hope this innings brings his form back..

41 of 34..not bad..

Yes i did. slow bounce. not the one like we saw in previous games. pitch was turning a lot. did you not see how swan turned the ball?

Pitch is turning a bit coz it is 3rd game in a row I think....and it will turn as days go buy...
 
You have Raina, Yuvi, Dhoni, Bajji in the hut and only 5 overs left.

We need to score at least 3 boundaries an over to compensate for our world class bowling.
 
Motoring at leass tha 10 runs per over in the last 6 overs of the innings is a big crime.

one of the two batters at the crease got to either hit out or get out soon

last match england made 87 from 5 overs against Afgan

so dont rule out India making similer score now
 
This is not the time to get batsmen into form.

If you score at 100 strike rate and India lose you will be blamed for the loss and not sure it will do a lot of good to your confidence.

We have enough batsmen to replace the ones that are out of form. You dont need to loose matches to get batsmen into form.

Do you guys have a conspiracy theory course at schools in Pakistan?
 
If india loses this match.. indian news channels will be betting for gambhirs throat :)))
 
Good time to have someone like Raina into the wicket.

We need to score at least 160.

i could not see any other reason for pitch to behave like this all in sudden. we all know if pitch was like how it was until yesterday, england would have been all over india by now.
 
Wow.. the guy with the worst strike rate brings himself to bat with only 4 overs remaining :yk
 
India have no chance to win unless they put 190+ runs because of their average bowling especially on these pitches.

Also India need to be very quick in the field
 
lol at dhoni. coming in ahead of yuvi. :facepalm: wanted to see yuvi against broad. dhoni is one of the worst t20 plyers.

exactly what possible explanation can it be...that sl pitches..a different strip has a BIT...of spin....very very very little..and ball is bouncing like a dream..like sl pitches never did...
 
Rejuvenated rohit looks much better with his shot selections so far.

Brilliant 4 over the keeper
