India (247/9) crush England (97) by 150 runs in the 5th T20I to seal the 5-match series 4-1

[jnaveen1980]

Salt , Pepper.. you still think Buttler is the biggest threat. That guy is effortless. He has set Indian grounds alight many many times. This is like his home ground

 

[Devadwal]

Salt is smashing evrything

 

[Justcrazy]

Poms have made strong start , but key is maintaining the tempo throughout here

 

[Rana]

This is a dead rubber game. England are not playing their main team. India are the home team.

India played well today but that doesn't mean they are favorites for CT 2025. India is a mid-tier team in Test and borderline mid-tier in ODI.

It is one thing to dominate in Mickey Mouse T20 but it is another thing to dominate in Test/ODI.

Who’s missing from England?

Mr expert who are england missing in this match??

This is england full strength team even for dead rubber game .

 

[Justcrazy]

Salt is smashing evrything

Does he have a choice ?

 

[sweep_shot]

Who’s missing from England?

Sam Curran?

Bairstow?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Kitchen sink approach is the only option England has now. Indian pace attack is poor today. They should target 80 runs in the first 6 minimum.

 

[Rana]

Sam Curran?

Bairstow?

Oh right

They are missing Dan Lawrence and Zack Crawley too?

 

[Justcrazy]

England are playing there test level bowlers , do not see much they could have done , they could have got another specialist spinner maybe .

I think If Ben Stokes was bowling , he could have been part of the team.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pandya is not a new ball bowler. This idea of using him as specialist bowler is a big risk

 

[sweep_shot]

Oh right

They are missing Dan Lawrence and Zack Crawley too?

I don't know about that.

Anyway, I don't think this is England's main team. Also, since it is a dead rubber game, intensity seems to be missing.

 

[Devadwal]

Sam Curran?

Bairstow?

Hahaha this is show your Cricketing IQ .

Bairstow is finished while curran has become trundler and Faheem level allrounder .

 

[Justcrazy]

Oh right

They are missing Dan Lawrence and Zack Crawley too?

Bairstow I think has been dropped.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Varun strikes. That is a big fish

 

[Rana]

I don't know about that but I don't think this is England's main team. Also, since it is a dead rubber game, intensity seems to be missing.

Intensity is missing? They are 48-1 in 4 overs

Now 2 down trying to hit sixes

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bairstow I think has been dropped.

Bairstow fitness is not good enough even for SA20. But just for his reputation sake they are playing him for JSK

 

[sweep_shot]

Intensity is missing? They are 48-1 in 4 overs

Now 2 down trying to hit sixes

Do you think England would've condeded 247 in a serious game?

They seem to be treating it like a picnic.

 

[Rana]

Bairstow I think has been dropped.

I know.

This is 95% England’s team for the next T20 World Cup.

The only guy they may add is Will Jacks if he finds form

 

[Devadwal]

Lol first ball of the spinner and wicket is gone .

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

Varun again strikes early , this has been issue with Poms , there hitters do not play spin well. Unless they sort this , they will struggle in Subcontinent conditions

 

[Rana]

I think it’s very much possible against this Indian side who want to hit 260 when they bat first

 

[Justcrazy]

I know.

This is 95% England’s team for the next T20 World Cup.

I think they will also be influenced by conditions. I think Poms need to bring in another spinner for these conditions.

Varun has tormented England all series .

Yes.

 

[sweep_shot]

Not in ICC events probably.

Pitches aren't generally flat like this. Also, teams generally try harder and they field their main teams.

There is absolutely nothing at stake in this game.

 

[jnaveen1980]

England has lost 5 T20 series in a row to India. That is some streak

 

[Devadwal]

I know.

This is 95% England’s team for the next T20 World Cup.

They are top quality team . losing to this India team is not true reflection of England team.

 

[Rana]

I think they will also be influenced by conditions. I think Poms need to bring in another spinner for these conditions.

They can swap Overton for the young Asian leggie. But that kids needs a lot of overs under his belt. He’s going down the Shadab khan route focussing on batting

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yes.

I think you guys are feeding a troll lol Just put him on ignore move on. Why are you guys responding to moronic posts.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

I don't know about that.

Anyway, I don't think this is England's main team. Also, since it is a dead rubber game, intensity seems to be missing.

I agree. No intensity at all with Archer and Wood regularly clocking 150 +

 

[jnaveen1980]

That was a brilliant catch. GIven that it is varun i have to say it is jonty rhodesque level catch

 

[OldWarHorse]

Not in ICC events probably.

Agree India should have smacked 280 today. Proper dead rubber stuff from us

 

[Devadwal]

Brooks gone.

Bishnoi strikes .

England are three down

 

[Justcrazy]

Three quick wickets , same story repeated in every game

 

[Devadwal]

Maybe too much smog is the reason why Brooks is gone .

 

[Justcrazy]

Brook is one of the most overrated batters , he cannot read a simple googly , very average batter.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bullet shots. England will become battle hardened in India and come hard at others in the CT and win the CT

 

[Vikram1989]

Brooks gone.

Bishnoi strikes .

England are three down

Smog and dew are the culprits for brooks dismal series

 

[jnaveen1980]

He has done well in most places. Just this weakness he has to address.

 

[sweep_shot]

This current Indian T20 team hasn't been genuinely tested.

They played Bangladesh, depleted South Africa, depleted England etc. They are yet to face any heavyweight bowling attack in an ICC event or in bilaterals.

Mumbai tends to be high-scoring. This is the same ground where South Africa scored 438 in an ODI and beat India by 214 runs.

 

[Devadwal]

England 68/3 in PP while india scored 95-1

 

[jnaveen1980]

Varun C is all over them like a rash. He gets a lot of bounce on this pitch. He is a tall guy.

 

[Devadwal]

Tullebaaz Livingstone also gone .

68/4

 

[Rana]

Varun should be in the CT squad over Washington Sundar

This was supposed to be a blockbuster series

Depleted Bangladesh too. Not gonna accept that on my watch...the disrespect shown to Bangla

[Rajdeep]

Eng fast bowlers clocking 154 clicks, batters are going at 12 runs an over but our resident BD troll thinks English team is not playing with full intensity. Easily one of the most unsporting, cringeworthy and hateful poster in this forum.

 

[Rana]

Butler played a beauty here!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Phil salt is finding some form here. He did very well for KKR last time.

 

[Justcrazy]

55 by Salt , the only Pom fighting.

 

[Devadwal]

This was supposed to be a blockbuster series

India is too strong for england and English player's brainless batting is the reason why India is winning This series.

 

[Justcrazy]

England need 166 runs in 78 balls.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India is too strong for england and English player's brainless batting is why India is winning This series.

Mind set

 

[jnaveen1980]

DUbe striekes . Takes out salt.. Eat that haters

 

[Justcrazy]

They have failed to read the spinners.

 

[OldWarHorse]

What a loss was Dube in the last game

 

[Nikhil_cric]

And Dube gets their most destructive batter first ball. Clearly that Rana substitution was justified

 

[Devadwal]

Hahahaha Dubey has strike in his first ball. Take that Buttler.

 

[Rajdeep]

Dube ji is proving he is like to like

 

[jnaveen1980]

Dube ji is proving he is like to like

Ya.. they are suddenly treating debutant Rana who not long played for under-19 as someone like Trent Boult.

 

[Devadwal]

This wicket was most important things of this match .

 

[Justcrazy]

To be honest the way England has played , they have made this series very boring , I doubt they will do anything different in OD

Credit to Varun C who completely screwed them over

 

[jnaveen1980]

Abhishek gets a wicket.

 

[Justcrazy]

Even Abhishek gets a wicket here

 

[jnaveen1980]

Abhishek multi talented like Rizwan. Bowl, bat, catch (abhishek) bat, keep, act (Rizwan)

 

[Devadwal]

Another bowler is taking a wicket on his first delivery of the match .

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol what gotten into Varun Chakraborty, took two good catches today..

 

[jnaveen1980]

We are playing loddus like Rohit, Kohli, Rahul, Jadeja instaead of these guys.

 

[jnaveen1980]

WIll they even reach ABhishek score

 

[Smbhayi]

India should try ABhishek sharma here.

Got two wicket.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why are they telling "In these conditions" "In these conditons". India beat England in England back to back series.

 

[Justcrazy]

This is over , just formality left.

 

[Devadwal]

England's batting depth is deeply shallow

 

[OldWarHorse]

England are so bad

But as brother @sweep_shot said they are missing big names. Likes of Mark Ramprakash, Chris Jordan, Craig Kieswetter and Ravi Bopara would have smoked these. overrated Indians.

 

[Bhaijaan]

This is arguably our most impressive T20 series wins of all. England weren’t a bad side at all. They are loaded with quality batters and their quickies are bowling 155 kph. They would whoop most teams. What we have done to them is quite extra ordinary.
