India (166/8) clinch a thrilling victory over England (165/9) in the second T20I, leading 2-0 in the 5-match series

[jnaveen1980]

Jamie SMith was impressive with his feet movement.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Livingstone now throws it away

 

[castortroy]

I have been watching him for more than 8 years. He is a bit round armish. Not chucking

Wears 3/4 quarter lenght in all games.

He clearly bends the elbow.

It's not round armish

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Vary the lengths and it's bringing the wickets

 

[Deewana Mastana]

England gonna lose 5-0 ?

 

[OldWarHorse]

Arshdeep Singh became Milkha Singh there

 

[jnaveen1980]

Wears 3/4 quarter lenght in all games.

He clearly bends the elbow.

It's not round armish

Waring full sleeves automatically make him a chucker. Ojha did chuck. He was booted out. Axar patel was not even once reported by any umpire. Nobody even discussed about it.

 

[Rana]

Smith played spin brilliantly during the Pakistan series too.

Strong backfoot player

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is England's Hernqiue klassen.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

2 lovely shots by Smith

 

[OldWarHorse]

Phew.. Our plumbers are safe

 

[jnaveen1980]

You need tremendous power to play shots like this. He is getting out to semi part timer Abishek. You cannot go after every single ball.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Throws it away next ball

Out for 22 off 12

 

[jnaveen1980]

Phew.. Our plumbers are safe

Got out to apprentice plumber lol

 

[Vikram1989]

Wow greatest batsmen world ever saw dismissed by plumbers

 

[jnaveen1980]

I am 100% sure Kohli would struggle here against this attack just as badly. They should have attempted a few deft shots behind the wickets

 

[jnaveen1980]

All banters aside i am impressed with Jamie smith. He is a solid potential.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Got out to apprentice plumber lol

Part time plumber.. Didn't even know he was going to be needed when he came in to work today

 

[Vikram1989]

Waring full sleeves automatically make him a chucker. Ojha did chuck. He was booted out. Axar patel was not even once reported by any umpire. Nobody even discussed about it.

Ojha was reported by domestic umpires too

 

[jnaveen1980]

Lot of sixes. But in between lot of low scoring shots. I think they should mix sweep with lofted shot

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ojha was reported by domestic umpires too

yes

 

[jnaveen1980]

Carse just did what i suggested them do. You have to score behidn the wicket too to throw bowlers off the line

 

[jnaveen1980]

As Nick Knigh mentions there is hardly any turn on this pitch. They just spooked themselves or pitch is holding up.

 

[Vikram1989]

As Nick Knigh mentions there is hardly any turn on this pitch. They just spooked themselves or pitch is holding up.

All the commies are saying no turn. Eng were looking for non existent spin and pitch is very good for batting.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Anything under 170, india wins with ease.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ya.. In this side only Sundar turns. Others doesn't turn that much. You can swing through the line

 

[jamie smith]

now carse smashing the indian plumbers

 

[jnaveen1980]

now carse smashing the indian plumbers

You jinxed your English Garbage cleaner lol Cluelessly knocked out of the ground

 

[jnaveen1980]

One English Garbage cleaner took out another

 

[OldWarHorse]

Isn't Carse a fast bowler? How do overseas seamers have such good batting techniques and our best option is Harshit

 

[jamie smith]

if carse stays till the end 170 is on

 

[jamie smith]

english batters have gifted their wickets to these indian plumbers otherwise 180 was on

 

[OldWarHorse]

if carse stays till the end 170 is on

You need anti-jinx lessons from our brother @Devadwal

 

[jamie smith]

every batter is smashing the indian plumbers

 

[Rana]

english batters have gifted their wickets to these indian plumbers otherwise 180 was on

They wanted more

180 isn’t enough

 

[jnaveen1980]

english batters have gifted their wickets to these indian plumbers otherwise 180 was on

India gifted runs to England otherwise would have been all out for 70 runs. lol Try some other excuse dude.

 

[Rana]

India boring side always opting to bowl first. They did the same against Bangladesh

Just bat and smash 220+

Entertain the crowd!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

England have lost this

 

[jnaveen1980]

India boring side always opting to bowl first. They did the same against Bangladesh

Just bat and smash 220+

Entertain the crowd!

Actually in chennai during summer batting second is a disaster. You can easily defend 150 here.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

India boring side always opting to bowl first. They did the same against Bangladesh

Entertain the crowd!

They want to smash 300 apparently

 

[Rana]

This India side is much stronger than the one which won the T20 World Cup

 

[jnaveen1980]

DOn't write ENgland off yet. This batting unit lacks some fire power

 

[Rana]

They want to smash 300 apparently

You never know. They nearly did it against Bangladesh

 

[jnaveen1980]

This India side is much stronger than the one which won the T20 World Cup

That was a pathetic side. Evne this side misses guys likE Riyan Parag tremendous six hitter. Ramandeep another awesome hitter. Probably one guy who can match Glen pHilips on the field. Ofcourse Bumrah, Kuldeep.

 

[jamie smith]

the pitch is tricky,160+ can be defended

 

[jamie smith]

That was a pathetic side. Evne this side misses guys likE Riyan Parag tremendous six hitter. Ramandeep another awesome hitter. Probably one guy who can match Glen pHilips on the field. Ofcourse Bumrah, Kuldeep.

riyan parag is rubbish

 

[jnaveen1980]

You never know. They nearly did it against Bangladesh

They also scored 283/1 in South Africa in the recent T20 series

 

[jamie smith]

170 is on,archer can certainly smash a few

 

[jnaveen1980]

riyan parag is rubbish

He is going to be the box office player in a couple of years. He gets injured too often.

 

[jamie smith]

They also scored 283/1 in South Africa in the recent T20 series

but if the pitch is tricky,these people become passengers

 

[jamie smith]

nice joke

He is going to be the box office player in a couple of years. He gets injured too often.

 

[Rana]

Rashid is a typical Pakistani T20 batter

 

[jamie smith]

rashid cant hit a boundary

 

[jamie smith]

rashid is useless as a batter,sam curran was better

 

[jnaveen1980]

nice joke

He is a six hitting monster. He has played 70 balls already hit 9 sixes in the T20 internationals. Plus an outstanding fielder. Can bowl all kind of spin.

 

[jamie smith]

brooks struggle against spin continued today

 

[jnaveen1980]

but if the pitch is tricky,these people become passengers

So England is a "tricky" pitch specialists lik we saw in wc2023, wt20 2024?

 

[jamie smith]

He is a six hitting monster. He has played 70 balls already hit 9 sixes in the T20 internationals. Plus an outstanding fielder. Can bowl all kind of spin.

hit sixes on highways

 

[Rana]

Wood should have batted ahead of Rashid

 

[jnaveen1980]

crowd is rooting for ENgland to score runs lol

 

[OldWarHorse]

Oooh classy shot from Wood

 

[jamie smith]

So England is a "tricky" pitch specialists lik we saw in wc2023, wt20 2024?

england team is also rubbish on tricky tracks

 

[jnaveen1980]

hit sixes on highways

Yea..so Jos Buttler is a great six hitter on turning , seaming tracks?

 

[jamie smith]

Wood should have batted ahead of Rashid

should have batted ahead of archer as well

 

[jnaveen1980]

england team is also rubbish on tricky tracks

India just has to be better than others. THey don't have to reach their own standard.

 

[jamie smith]

wish to see a last ball six

should have batted ahead of archer as well

 

[jnaveen1980]

165 runs thanks to 9 sixes. If it is against a team that cannot hit sixes this total will be like 130.

 

[jamie smith]

165 is a decent total on this track

 

[Deewana Mastana]

India should get this by 16th or 18th over.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Curious to see how the pitch will behave. You rarely get dew at chennai. So that won't be a factor. If it slows down further England can contain India by using cutters after power play.

 

[Rana]

165 is a decent total on this track

England only 1 spinner

They need 3 to make something of this

 

[jnaveen1980]

England only 1 spinner

They need 3 to make something of this

Pacers have to bowl a lot of cutters into the deck stuff.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why are they not playing Sam CUrran? He is going to play for CSK. This will be his home ground. He has already played once. His cutters will be very useful.

 

[jnaveen1980]

All said and done this series and ODI series will be a good preparation for England coming into CT. They have some powerful hitters all the way. They can make it to semis easily

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why are they not playing Sam CUrran? He is going to play for CSK. This will be his home ground. He has already played once. His cutters will be very useful.

He's not good enough for McCullum

 

[Deewana Mastana]

England only 1 spinner

They need 3 to make something of this

England's spin stock is bare

 

[jnaveen1980]

England has a sniff because India will give chances with aggressive approach. It was mere 130 other day. So collapse was not an issue. But today collapse is nto an option

 

[OldWarHorse]

Openers need to click, think that middle order is a bit thin. Certainly not fully convinced with Tilak against high pace, Jurel is untested

 

[jnaveen1980]

Harry Brook is a phenomenal talent. But he has to improve his game against spinners that bring the ball back in .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Openers need to click, think that middle order is a bit thin. Certainly not fully convinced with Tilak against high pace, Jurel is untested

Jurel is not a T20 material. Not sure why he was even with this squad. You would rather back Kishan.
