India (329) defeat England (322/9) by 7 runs to win 3rd ODI - Win series 2-1

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

I think India have this in the bag. England have a great batting line up but our bowlers will use this wicket far better.

We don't have any specialist spinner.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Thakur is playing better than Krunal here

 

[Kaptan]

Problem with Kurnal is, he will rarely get runs but will go for runs at 6+ almost every game.

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Man Thakur is really a decent bat.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Krunal is nowhere near Hardik when it comes to batting and bowling lol

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Umeed par duniya Kayam bro..These two need to just bat sensibly.

Almost there.. Need to get 340-350. Hopefully Natarajan and get few wickets in the middle.

 

[Abhilash93]

Washington Sundar >> Krunal Pandya

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Washington Sundar >> Krunal Pandya

Yes without any doubt.

 

[Hasan123]

Thakur has a good bat swing.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Krunal 18(25) and this is when India is perfectly placed above 300

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

lol Stokes checking out Thakur's bat..

 

[mastimasti]

We don't have any specialist spinner.

Don't need it. Bowling cutters, just back of a length and slower balls and all the English will be caught out.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Thakur has a good bat swing.

He is our Chris Jordan.

 

[TNAmarkFromIndia]

Man Thakur is really a decent bat.

Is his batting at No. 8 worth his bowling of 42 average and 6.8 economy rate though?

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Krunal is all style and showoff. Bhai kuch runs bhi maar le.

 

[Hasan123]

He is our Chris Jordan.

I think he is fine for T20s but he is playing in ODIs and tests.

 

[Kaptan]

Kurnal is a dud

 

[Abhilash93]

I think he is fine for T20s but he is playing in ODIs and tests.

No, played in a Test only because Ishant, Shami, Bumrah, Umesh were all injured.

 

[Hasan123]

Wood strikes.

 

[saeed5646]

Am i missing something .Why have wood bowl less overs

 

[saeed5646]

Don't need it. Bowling cutters, just back of a length and slower balls and all the English will be caught out.

Lol it's not that easy.

 

[Sunzi]

Am i missing something .Why have wood bowl less overs

He seems to be struggling. Spent time off the pitch in the middle overs and is "grimacing" between balls and receiving drinks support at the end of each over... comms saying similar.

 

[Hasan123]

Axar Patel would have been a better pick than Krunal.

 

[sam_ahm]

Am i missing something .Why have wood bowl less overs

He has been suffering from dehydration, went off the field but still came back and has bowled brilliantly.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Krunal is struggling to even hit a 4 here

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Am i missing something .Why have wood bowl less overs

Yes quite strange for him to not bowl full quota

 

[Hasan123]

Torturous innings from Krunal.

 

[Abhilash93]

Potentially a match losing innings this from Krunal.

 

[Ab Fan]

Poor from Krunal. Jadeja is better than him in every thing required in cricket.

 

[Kaptan]

Kurnu should be nowhere near team India.
Substandard player.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Credit to England. They really pulled back the game in their favor which was getting out of hand when Pant and Pandya were batting. Anything under 350 is highly chaseable for England provided they don't throw their wickets away like they did in the 1st ODI

The other Pandya's innings might just have sunk India.

 

[Ahmed216]

Krunal is struggling to even hit a 4 here

Ravi ashwin can do a better job as an all rounder. Krunal is all show and no substance.
Washington sundar is far far better than KP

 

[Raja111]

In his 34 ball knock , krunal didn't even hit a single boundary but will concede 2 sixes per over with the ball

 

[Ahmed216]

Poor from Krunal. Jadeja is better than him in every thing required in cricket.

Is jaddu injured?

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Ravi ashwin can do a better job as an all rounder. Krunal is all show and no substance.
Washington sundar is far far better than KP

Even Thakur outscored him.

 

[Hasan123]

Easy work for Wood.

 

[sam_ahm]

To be able to hit in last 10 overs when fielding team finally gets to have 5 fielders outside the circle, you need wickets in hand. Without wickets in hand you cannot make good use of last 10 overs.

Actually scoring runs from overs 10 to 40 is now easier than 40 - 50, which is another reason why we see so many 350 games.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Wood takes his 3rd wicket. Shows what a blunder it was by Buttler to not bowl him when both Pandya and Pant were smashing their spinners.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

330 is the target.

 

[JattMaula]

Getting all out gir below par score after showing intent is better than posting below par score with tons of resources unspent.

We are 50 runs short of winning score today.

 

[Ahmed216]

India tried to follow the English tempelate today and rightly so because they have the capacity. But they've fallen a 30-40 runs short.
I think kohli is no longer the same batsman as he was couple of years ago.

 

[sam_ahm]

We got less than 2nd ODI

 

[Ab Fan]

Is jaddu injured?

Yes but he is fit bt now I think.

 

[Sunzi]

Decent score but a far cry from what they were looking at.

India were in a position to bat England out of the game when Pant and Pandya were at the crease.

 

[James]

That was a bit of an awkward and downbeat interview....

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

India tried to follow the English tempelate today and rightly so because they have the capacity. But they've fallen a 30-40 runs short.
I think kohli is no longer the same batsman as he was couple of years ago.

And that's the reason he is getting a lot of hate now from same Indian fans who used to worship him. Story of every Indian great these days.

 

[Raja111]

India only scored 210 after 40 overs in the last game and still ended up getting 336
Today reached almost 290 after 40 but couldn't get 330

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

That was a bit of an awkward and downbeat interview....

From Kieron Pollard?

 

[sindhiboy]

Wood has secured a very lucrative deal for himself in next years ipl

 

[Hitman]

And that's the reason he is getting a lot of hate now from same Indian fans who used to worship him. Story of every Indian great these days.

Forget Kohli, a lot of fickle fans even turned against the great Sachin during the time he was struggling with his injuries in 2005/06.

 

[Rohan]

India only scored 210 after 40 overs in the last game and still ended up getting 336
Today reached almost 290 after 40 but couldn't get 330

With that calculation, India should have scored 464

 

[Bilal7]

Another good job by England's premier spinners. Moeen bowled 6 terrific overs before he came up against the opposition's best six-hitter. Rashid will always be expensive but pick up crucial wickets, which is what he did today.

Had England not got those four wickets quickly, India would have been looking at 380, if not 400.

 

[silentkiller187]

46 / 4 in the last 10 compared to 100 plus in the last 2 games, could cost India here, 20 /30 short

 

[Saurav]

And that's the reason he is getting a lot of hate now from same Indian fans who used to worship him. Story of every Indian great these days.

If we can 'worship' him why can't we criticise him

 

[Saurav]

India missed a trick by not promoting Hardik after 100 run start,like Eng promoted Stokes last game

Would have taken care of Moeen

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

If we can 'worship' him why can't we criticise him

You can criticise him just like I can criticise Pant/Pandya but some people were criticising him for losing tosses and calling him a panauti lol.

 

[Concerned]

Mark Wood bowled like a champ. Wasn’t match fit, but kept running in.

Curran needs to go.

 

[Saurav]

You can criticise him just like I can criticise Pant/Pandya but some people were criticising him for losing tosses and calling him a panauti lol.

yeah agree there

only his batting is to be criticised.

btw Pant/Pandya are the only one batting with England like fearless aprroach

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Mark Wood bowled like a champ. Wasn’t match fit, but kept running in.

Curran needs to go.

Both Curran needs to go.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

444 on the first ball

 

[Ab Fan]

Bairstow will get out cheaply today

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

2 fours in a row

 

[Kroll]

Good total by India, as ever Eng will require another fast start, can't be relying on bhai further down to bat them out of trouble

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Will Hardik bowl today?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Back to back 4s for Roy

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Krishna will be a key bowler here

 

[Amjid Javed]

India 40 runs below what they should have got here.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

What a ball from Bhuvi. Roy gone

 

[MP2011]

I actually think kohli has been batting the worst of the lot in terms of intent. But obviously iyer cant take his spot so....

He is. Most pathetic part about Kohli though is that his bluster still hasn't gone anywhere. It's still intact. Would have paid him better dividends had he remained bit more humble at least during these times.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

14/1 after first over

 

[Amjid Javed]

Roy gone. Good ball from bhuvi

 

[Kaptan]

Bhuvi is a champion bowler. Very underrated.

 

[MP2011]

Early wickets are always good and we have been starved of them since forever.

 

[Sunzi]

329 not a walk in the park. Still got to balance the chase.

Definitely a game on, especially with that early strike.

 

[MP2011]

Great delivery from Nattu kaka.

 

[Kroll]

Need another Bairstow special.

 

[MP2011]

Too much of leg stump line?

 

[Saurav]

Bhuvi is a champion bowler. Very underrated.

Na hes rated highly

 

[MP2011]

Na hes rated highly

True. His fitness creates most of his problems.

 

[MP2011]

Another wide.
