India v Australia | QF2 | WC'11 | Ahmedabad | 24/3/11

[iRfaN_LA]

AUS need spinners and they don't have one.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Sachin walks but Umpire stops

Is that no ball?

 

[Waheed_one]

Rooting for India.. appeal

 

[akamaka]

no?

 

[On_the_up]

Krejza should be meat and drink for these Indians.

Australia needs to create some score board pressure by bowling some tight overs.

 

[AZ]

Sachin

 

[liaqat]

No ball

 

[Waheed_one]

Bazck foot no ball?

 

[MHZ]

[grunge]

let this not be a no ball

 

[Waheed_one]

Hhahah No ball maybe?

 

[MHZ]

oh man..no ball?

 

[Waheed_one]

Tendu is gone

 

[NorthStar]

Tenda is gone!!!!

 

[Strike!]

 

[AZ]

Yeeeeeees!!!

India in trouble.

 

[Looney]

[MHZ]

[DeadlyVenom]

Tendu out. 29/8 collapse here we come

 

[Waheed_one]

Fair delievery... Ravi is Pissed again

 

[Free Hit]

I think India will be easy to beat, considering aussies wont lose tous twce in a row. India gets our boys pumped up

 

[talha3]

HUGE wicket!

 

[BaaliSoda]

Now we are in big trouble

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[farsiddiqui]

What are they checking on the back leg?

 

[zulfiqar]

What the hell is a back foot no ball again Waheed? It means that your back foot must be at least past the line of the wicket? I never knew this rule existed?

 

[NorthStar]

Back leg was fine!

 

[Strike!]

Someone explain that backfoot rule.

 

[Vegitto1]

Tait gets the main man! and now India 90% likely to win this match lol!

 

[jattafridi]

 

[grunge]

yay! tatta strikes

 

[Waheed_one]

Ok I want India Pak Semi lets go India

 

[MHZ]

oooooof!!

 

[akamaka]

Yeeeeeees!!!

India in trouble.

lol.

 

[hashmist]

Gul. Afridi. Ajmal.

Well first off who opens the attack with Gul? Certainly not Hafeez, bc Veeru and Tendu will take him to the cleaners. So Rehman then since both openers are righties? Which will mean dropping Ajmal, who I think is the best bowling threat against India. And if they're playing Lee this well, dunno how much more effective Gul can be. Afridi, yes.

 

[Free Hit]

 

[liaqat]

well well well

 

[DeadlyVenom]

What the hell is a back foot no ball again Waheed? It means that your back foot must be at least past the line of the wicket? I never knew this rule existed?

It exists when tendulkar is batting

 

[talha3]

I think India will be easy to beat, considering aussies wont lose tous twce in a row. India gets our boys pumped up

I thought this as well. But trust me, SRT and Yuvraj are in great form, and they both have good history against us, so we don't want to play them.

 

[JellyBro]

Sachin gone w/o making a century. Indian wins?

 

[NorthStar]

Collapse time?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

What are they checking on the back leg?

If it touches the line, its a No ball

 

[shan]

What are they checking on the back leg?

Because it can be no ball?

 

[Britstani]

omg that was a close call for tait....is this going to be a twist???????

 

[ZenBowman]

Good knock by Tendulkar, but Aussies are favorites from here IMO.

 

[zulfiqar]

Like I said! A BLINK OF AN EYE! Tait is fast and his tail is up! India watch out!

BTW, this is a bad sign for AUstralia... Tendulkar could have just potentially played a match-winning 50! IT was better if he got his 100 India to win here I Feel!

 

[Free Hit]

OMG someone in this thread about 20 minutes ago said, tenda wil get out on 51 and india will win lol

 

[jattafridi]

need 1 more wicket than game is on

 

[Waheed_one]

kholi is in

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Tait on the money here.

 

[talha3]

Kohli will be watched closely here for the people who post in the Kohli vs Umar thread.

 

[akamaka]

Give it to them Aussies need to go with short ball barrage.

 

[AZ]

chal puttar Virat, dekhte hain tu kitne paani mey hai.

 

[liaqat]

now tait will wake up and click

 

[BaaliSoda]

What happen to Sachin, all of sudden he has become a walker these days?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Bring back that Kohli Vs Jr thread.

 

[farsiddiqui]

Most of us are CONFUSED One, we want India to be the ones we beat on route to the Finals. Two, it's just awkward cheering for India.

I'm in the same boat. I hate both of these teams and can't make up my mind.

Would love to see India vs Pak match though and break the WC jinx. But then why am I so overjoyed when Tendulkar was walking back to the Pavillion?

Still, a poll would be good way to confront the confounding emotions.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

India will win this now....Sachin gone without a century!!

 

[NorthStar]

Need more chin music .... Kohli, Raina, Yuvraj hopeless against short ball.

 

[giri26]

It will be difficult for India to chase this now. I dont think we will.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[grunge]

95 mph

 

[BaaliSoda]

NO BALL Free hit coming up from Tait

 

[JellyBro]

OMG someone in this thread about 20 minutes ago said, tenda wil get out on 51 and india will win lol

he got out on 53

 

[Waheed_one]

No ball and free hit

 

[AZ]

 

[Looney]

no ball

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Tait is rubbish is an under statement.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

chal puttar Virat, dekhte hain tu kitne paani mey hai.

Glassy pee kar ayaa hay ....

 

[ZenBowman]

It exists when tendulkar is batting

It has always existed, Tait is the only one who is called for it because nobody else violates the rule.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Just a single.

 

[duostyle]

What happen to Sachin, all of sudden he has become a walker these days?

Adding to his 'legacy'

Come on both teams, fight till the death. Please.

 

[Waheed_one]

Zuli if you are watching the match i hope you now know what is back foot no ball..

 

[Afridi_Fan]

98/2 in 19.

 

[MHZ]

Aussies will start to tighten the screw now, they are good at that.

 

[farsiddiqui]

Because it can be no ball?

I know that, I was asking about the exact rule. Does the back foot have to be ahead of the stumps or were they checking the side lines?

 

[zulfiqar]

Well first off who opens the attack with Gul? Certainly not Hafeez, bc Veeru and Tendu will take him to the cleaners. So Rehman then since both openers are righties? Which will mean dropping Ajmal, who I think is the best bowling threat against India. And if they're playing Lee this well, dunno how much more effective Gul can be. Afridi, yes.

I thought about this dillema and here's what I've come up with hashmist!

We can't open with a spinner against India; that's SUICIDE! The only spinner capable is Ajmal, and I'd still rather not. I'd risk opening with Gul & Razzak (Yes, i said razzak). He's one of those Sachin-killer bowlers and Watson/Haddin aren't exactly getting OZ off to fliers either! Sachin/Sehwag will get India off to a flier anyway I feel and we can expect something like 50/0 (6-7 overs) anyway, so no point in ruining non-powerplay overs from better bowlers in that time frame. Next , for first change I'd bring in Akhtar/Riaz whoever is playing. THe point is to strike the openers out, because runs will flow anyway!

Still though, Gul. Afridi. Ajmal! Have faith man!

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Just when I was about to say that Aussies are done, they get a wicket. Still a big uphill for Aussies to win this game.

 

[Free Hit]

one more wicket, and we have match on

 

[Shayan]

If it touches the line, its a No ball

We mean the vertical line on the side, back foot has to be inside it.
