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

[jnaveen1980]

Abhishek is not going to be consistent. But you shouldn't mind though.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Most wickets of Indian spinners at home in an innings in T20Is

7 vs Sri Lanka, Vizag, 2016
7 vs England, Bengaluru, 2017
7 vs Sri Lanka, Indore, 2017
6* vs England, Chennai, 2025
6 vs Sri Lanka, Cuttack, 2017

 

[jnaveen1980]

145k delivery.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Archer taken down through off side. I don't think he cares one bit

 

[jnaveen1980]

Poor bowling from Archer. You have to pitch it right up at the risk of being driven. You cannot bowl this length to him.

 

[Devadwal]

Archer smashed by Abhishek.

India 13/0 in 1 over

 

[jnaveen1980]

151 kph alright. But if you don't bowl right length you will be punished

 

[jnaveen1980]

Man that was insanely quick. Curious to see the speed from Wood. It was just rapid

 

[Devadwal]

Wood is getting the seam movements.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sharma gone LBW to Wood

 

[Devadwal]

Abhishek gone

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Man that was insanely quick. Curious to see the speed from Wood. It was just rapid

149kph

 

[jnaveen1980]

That looks out. These things happen with Abhishek. He played right across the line.

 

[Devadwal]

Poor review .it was plumb

 

[jnaveen1980]

ABhishek is totally backed to play like this. SO we should be good. India shouldn't change this philosophy. The consolidators Kohli, Rahul has killed us enough.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Wood is breathing fire though.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wood is breathing fire though.

Avg speed is 145kph

 

[Devadwal]

Pace is troubling the Sanju Samson

 

[Deewana Mastana]

149kph Archer

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pace is troubling the Sanju Samson

He is a good player of pace. I think he is trying to muscle it. He should use the pace

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Samsun OUT

 

[OldWarHorse]

Openers gone. Not looking good

 

[jnaveen1980]

There is a risk with this over attacking tendency.

 

[Devadwal]

Lol what a poor technique by Sanju. Playing every ball at the backfoot .

 

[jnaveen1980]

SKY is out of form as well

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Top shot by Sky

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think this is INdia's philosophy. No tuk tuking I agree with it. T20 is for entertainment. Don't consolidate and bore us.

 

[Devadwal]

Openers gone. Not looking good

Enough batting left .

 

[jnaveen1980]

I don't disagree with attitude of Samson. But he tried a low percentage shot. Should have tried to ramp it rather as it comes at chest height anyway

 

[sweep_shot]

TEAM IPL is in trouble.

29/2.

 

[sweep_shot]

137 are needed off 100 balls.

England need to get SKY out quickly.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is quiet exhilirating stuff from England. Very high pace from both ends. Nothign can match extreme pace .

 

[jnaveen1980]

152.7 kph last ball

 

[Devadwal]

137 are needed off 100 balls.

England need to get SKY out quickly.

Just few overs left before you will be disappeared from this thread.

 

[Champ_Pal]

It’s been a while since we saw 2 bowlers clocking 160k bowling in tandem. No respite for batsmen.

Great contest this.

 

[Devadwal]

by tilak against Archer

 

[jnaveen1980]

Great contest this.

Yea.. regardless of who, when bowlers bowl at 150k it is fun to watch

 

[Champ_Pal]

Tilak has improved massively in the last year or so. He is not distraught by pace.

 

[jnaveen1980]

The audacity of youngsters

 

[Champ_Pal]

Yea.. regardless of who, when bowlers bowl at 150k it is fun to watch

I accidentally typed 160k.

Still 150k is no joke.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Was a stupid move to give Archer another over here when we went for 22 in 2 .

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think if Englnad has any sense they should start bowling cutters from here on. They got 2 wickets. Continuing with extreme pace becomes predictable

 

[Devadwal]

India 51/2 in 5 overs

 

[Champ_Pal]

The audacity of youngsters

Kohli would have tap danced at that pace.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India's six hitting fun continues.

 

[sweep_shot]

TEAM IPL is running away with the game. England need wickets.

57/2 (5.1 overs).

109 are needed off 89 balls.

 

[FearlessRoar]

160+ targets haven't been easy

160+ run chases in Chennai in T20s since 2023

Matches - 12
Wins - 4
Losses - 8
Win% - 33.3%

 

[Champ_Pal]

Tilak seeing the ball like a football. He is in some form lately.

 

[Devadwal]

Curse welcome with by tilak

 

[jnaveen1980]

Kohli would have tap danced at that pace.

Shocking lack of intent was incomprehensible. ON a flat adelaide oval wicket both against Bangladesh and England in world T20, 2022 he tuk tuked.

 

[Champ_Pal]

I am sure you are making dua for an Indian loss

 

[Champ_Pal]

Sky gone.

India has to use all their batsmen and all rounders today.

 

[Devadwal]

Sky gone

58/3

Traffic about to increase in this thread and so are my notifications

 

[jnaveen1980]

Sky gone.

India has to use all their batsmen and all rounders today.

India has beaten ENgland 4 T20 series in a row. IF they win this will be 5th. These series wins has to mean something. India has to create a template to win from any situation.

 

[sweep_shot]

Wicket. Yes! Yes!

 

[sweep_shot]

Adil Rashid vs IPL's T20 hacks.

I expect Adil to dominate.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India can win with singles. But i don't want them to do that. Just go for it. You have our backing. win or lose

 

[sweep_shot]

India can win with singles. But i don't want them to do that. Just go for it. You have our backing. win or lose

Required run rate is almost 8.

Singles aren't going to cut it.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Seems like typical Chennai pitch effect? Second half of second innings is near impossible to bat on. MSD has architected so many wins on this ground by defending low totals

 

[jnaveen1980]

Carse is also quick. Skiddy and quickish bowling heavy balls

 

[sweep_shot]

Adil Rashid vs IPL's T20 hacks.

I expect Adil to dominate.

Only 4 runs off Adil's over.

Any good spinner can handle these T20 hacks.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why is Jurel playing ahead of Kishan

That's a bit silly tbh

 

[sweep_shot]

Out!

TEAM IPL is collapsing.

66/4.

 

[Devadwal]

Soft dismissal

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why is Jurel playing ahead of Kishan

That's a bit silly tbh

No idea why he is in the T20 mix at all. IT is a total surprise. He was never in the mix until now

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Carse is also quick. Skiddy and quickish bowling heavy balls

He's a 142-145kph bowler

 

[OldWarHorse]

All hopes on Pandya

 

[Deewana Mastana]

No idea why he is in the T20 mix at all. IT is a total surprise. He was never in the mix until now

He's gone anyway lol

 

[jnaveen1980]

England is in a must win situation. IF they lose it will be very hard to come back into the series.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Parag, Rinku combo missing is a big blow. Reddy is fine but Sundar and Jurel are a step below

 

[jnaveen1980]

Nitish reddy injury, RInku injury have thrown India off their plan.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Parag, Rinku combo missing is a big blow. Reddy is fine but Sundar and Jurel are a step below

Definitey. They are not T20 batsmen. Proper test level batsmen

 

[sweep_shot]

India has beaten ENgland 4 T20 series in a row. IF they win this will be 5th. These series wins has to mean something. India has to create a template to win from any situation.

Who keeps track of bilateral T20 series wins? LOL.

In case you are not aware, England rarely play their full sides during bilateral T20s.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India can just take 1s and 2s win the match. I don't think that would have been the message.

 

[Devadwal]

All hopes on Pandya

Sit and relax brother

 

[jnaveen1980]

Swag shot FAIL from Pandya lol What was he doing

 

[jnaveen1980]

He tries this SWAG shot too much needlessly.

 

[jnaveen1980]

If India wins from here that will be a massive achievement.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Sundar is a non factor in T20. Not sure why Axar didn't come ahead.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Wow.. lol India wants to keep throwing kitchen sink
