[Justcrazy]

:4

boudaries coming at ease here.

 

[Robbie]

An exciting tournament would be Pak Ind Aus Safrica in a completely random place like England or West Indies to assess how bad/good these sides are with respect to their bowling/batting"

[Justcrazy]

6 from the over

103 / 0 after 16

 

[Justcrazy]

That did happen in June with CT. Pakistan were the first to be kicked out. Then Australia. Saffers choked as usual and Indians were winners in a surprisingly dominant fashion.

Rain Break breaking the concentration.

 

[Justcrazy]

81 short of 5000 runs in ODI

 

[Justcrazy]

[fumaster]

LOL - ridiculous running

 

[Justcrazy]

out for

 

[truefan]

India on self destruction mode, let's see how the out of form Raina Dhoni Yuvi perform under pressure

 

[Convict]

runout was the only way we'd get him out

 

[Justcrazy]

is not interested when there is no pressure of chasing !!

 

[Robbie]

Rohit "talunted" sharma. )
inziesque running!

 

[Justcrazy]

India on self destruction mode, let's see how the out of form Raina Dhoni Yuvi perform under pressure

what pressure

113 / 2 after 20 overs.

 

[IAJ]

Lol, that is the only way they could have got him without any damage.

 

[KPfan]

Kohli - Runout's bunny?

Ok I didn't make much sense.

 

[Justcrazy]

The rain break was a blessing for Australia , india had the momentum before that.

 

[Justcrazy]

300 is still on cards here, India have depth in batting.

 

[fumaster]

hehe - i was kidding

 

[Justcrazy]

Doherty

1 for 22 in 5 overs ( not a bad effort so far)

 

[Sandeep]

Finally the middle order will be tested!

 

[jattafridi]

kohli almost crying

 

[Sandeep]

Raina will have to score atleast 70-80.. he has been hiding under others performances for a long time

 

[Robbie]

300 is still on cards here, India have depth in batting.

what depth?
raina and yuvraj are ridiculously out of form along with sir's ineptness

 

[Sandeep]

Rohit's perfect partners are Dhawan and Kohli. When he pairs with others who can't give the momentum, result is a bad run rate

But you forgot that he's got 'Talunt' :umarakmal

 

[Itachi]

Rohit should be kicked out of the team. too slow.

 

[truefan]

monster Hit

 

[truefan]

Need 200 in the last 23 overs, real test for yuvi raina Dhoni

 

[Robbie]

Atleast raina can play 120ks short ball.

 

[Robbie]

Rohit has inzamam written all over him

 

[Robbie]

If only rohit had the temperament of inzi..

 

[Robbie]

Watson pulled his hamstring i reckon.

 

[Robbie]

back to back

 

[dhump]

watching this match for last 30 mins and already bored of no contest this is pathetic bowlers have nothing to threat batsman with.

 

[arehaan]

This Australian attack is by far the worst I have seen for a long time

 

[jattafridi]

raina gone

 

[Robbie]

And raina goes after scoring his usual runs.

 

[Indiafan]

watching this match for last 30 mins and already bored of no contest this is pathetic bowlers have nothing to threat batsman with.

Yep, both kind of matches are boring, the current series where batsmen make merry and the Pak SA matches where teams cannot cross 200 most times

 

[Robbie]

This pitch is doing something for the bowlers unlike the earlier pitches.

 

[Robbie]

Yuvraj gonna make merry with johnson absent from this match.

 

[jattafridi]

yuvi gone

 

[Robbie]

350 impossible now.

 

[style_guru]

India in some trouble here.

 

[Robbie]

Raina and yuvi needs to go.

 

[KPfan]

They should bring in Gambhir for Yuvraj.

 

[Sandeep]

Suddenly Aussies are bowling some seriously good balls..

 

[battler]

Ball is seaming over here.
Bhuvi and shami will be in business.

 

[Sandeep]

Ball is seaming over here.
Bhuvi and shami will be in business.

+1.. Hopefully Ashwin and Sir Vinay can bowl some dots here and there.. 6 rpo from them is the biggest gift

 

[Robbie]

Good innings here from rohit. well played.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Century for Rohit.A gem of an innings....

 

[Arsal_AK]

Whoa...Great from Rohit..... :6

 

[amax]

Yep, both kind of matches are boring, the current series where batsmen make merry and the Pak SA matches where teams cannot cross 200 most times

Actually Pak vs SA matches are giving right value to batsmen's runs, gritty 50s; one of the most beautiful aspect of ODI cricket are being scored, century is too big a landmark to be devalued. Low scores have lot to do with 20 something average bowlers from both sides.

 

[Robbie]

India need 310+ here to win this

 

[Robbie]

Sorry its 320+. I forgot vinay is playing this match.

 

[Naheem]

Not really, some of the shots played in the UAE series have been school boy stuff. Inability to rotate strike or adapt was obvious from both batting sides. Add sluggish out field and ball not coming to the bat. Pretty sure even Ashwin and Jadeja would have run through sides on those pitches and BK would have been good too. You talk about 20 average bowlers, but the more outstanding bowlers have been people like Tahir and Afridi, who are not legends in bowling

A good contest would be matches with around 250-275 scored

 

[Robbie]

India need to push the run rate now.

 

[Naheem]

:6

 

[Robbie]

Minimum 70 runs should be made in last 8 overs.

 

[arehaan]

something seriously wrong with Australian fielding they have been very sloppy dropping simple catches through out

 

[Robbie]

9Th for rohit.

 

[Naheem]

huge

 

[Naheem]

rohit is much improved now

 

[Naheem]

Rohit has another landmark for this year - 1000 ODI runs this year - fourth after Bailey, Kohli and Misbah

 

[truefan]

Even an out of form dhoni is breathtaking

 

[abhayjj]

last 5 overs 51 runs

 

[Robbie]

Dhoni gearing up for his power bazookas.

 

[truefan]

Should be targetting 70+ in the last 5 overs

 

[abhayjj]

200 for rohit ?
anyone?

 

[Naheem]

drop

 

[Naheem]

may b

 

[Robbie]

from rohit

 

[Naheem]

200 for rohit ?
anyone?

for 200 need to bat full 50 ovrs

 

[Naheem]

back to back :4's what a kncok so far
