[Statsman]

Yes, England can make a come back. Batting first might help their cause.

India hasn't had a good record in FSK.

Waiting for Yuvi and Sachin to make a comeback in the team.

7/11 players in the last match were not in India's first 11 of the World Cup Squad.

wrong ...i believe we have won around 80% of our matches here

as for yuvi and sachin let them rest we can play nohit in place of parthiv so that both rahane and nohit get exposure

60% (9/15 - OK, not too bad) (http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/en...eam_view=bowl;template=results;type=aggregate)

By nohit, do you mean Rohit Sharma? He can't play. He's injured and not in the squad as far as I remember.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Come on India

 

[jattafridi]

easy win for India

5-0 hai lekh lo

 

[AZ]

lets hope the pitch doesn't get the match canceled

 

[Ryankhan]

Eng bowling looks terrible........no Anderson,Broad,Bresnan,Tremlet?????
how did they even think they could win with this line Up????
In batting, No strauss, Bell, Morgon........ind has great chance to win the series and what a lucky fellassssss

Sachin, Sehwag, Yuvraj, Rohit, Zaheer, Munaf and Bhajji. I would say England is more lucky.

 

[Ruri]

Sachin, Sehwag, Yuvraj, Rohit, Zaheer, Munaf and Bhajji. I would say England is more lucky.

Munaf, Bhajji, Sachin atm in ODIs based on their current form? Not that big a deal.

We're crap at ODIs, don't expect to win. Take out our big players in Broad and Morgan its horrifying. No Anderson for his experience is important.

Basically, take away the only few chances of us winning, we can't possibly get a game off without those unless Finn, KP or Bairstow step up. Dernbach will always be crap.

 

[AlizeeFan]

^ What would be your team for today?

Dernbach is highly overrated bowler in ODIs. Bresnan and Broad are best pacers in shorter version of the game.

 

[IAJ]

When is match starting? Any newz on Toss if it's starting GMT 09:00

 

[James]

England are going to have a bat and it starts in 5 minutes

 

[AlizeeFan]

England have to score 270+ to ensure a win here. Although it would be difficult to play both pacers and spinners on this track.

Dew can be big factor in Delhi.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dew would be a factor?

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Anything over 240 should be good for England, Delhi is known to be a slow pitch. Dew is not a certainty, though if its there it'll ease it a little.

We need to restrict them around 220-230.

[Cricfan4eva]

Unlucky way to get out. Just the start we needed.

 

[IAJ]

Lols first ball?

 

[AlizeeFan]

Poor shot by Cook.

 

[Law]

Unlucky way to get out. Just the start we needed.

Wasn't unlucky. Was a poor poor shot!

 

[AlizeeFan]

Dew would be a factor?

It might be.

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Hope Dhoni brings in Umesh early a bit of swing there for bowlers. VK will just waste it.

 

[James]

Actually not a problem, he's been arguably the best player in the team since he was made captain.

The failing imports are the ones required to succeed. It's been a long time.

 

[Ruri]

^ What would be your team for today?

Dernbach is highly overrated bowler in ODIs. Bresnan and Broad are best pacers in shorter version of the game.

Bresnan is good, but he doesn't have the experience Anderson has. Anderson when fit and not tired is one of the best bowlers to have in the side. Dernbach out, Woakes in out of the current squad. I just can't see a winning squad though. Morgan is a must have, that is currently not present. And Bopara is decent, but no dependable Collingwood.

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Wasn't unlucky. Was a poor poor shot!

Definitely, but it was a poor ball, he could've hit it 9 out of 10 times over the fielder.

 

[Ruri]

Actually not a problem, he's been arguably the best player in the team since he was made captain.

The failing imports are the ones required to succeed. It's been a long time.

And what a bad way to start.

[Ruri]

In ODIs. Fullstop.

 

[Sherlock]

Lol, Eng.

 

[nish_mate]

Amazing how the change of continents changes the fortunes...

All through the summer, the 1/2 was associated with the Indians...

 

[JibranAnsari]

In ODIs. Fullstop.

Will see in tests , yet to prove themselves in SC

 

[James]

Me: India v England unavailable on Sky Go to paying customers. Poor show from BSkyB and the BCCI/Indian broadcasters. Awaiting @skyhd's response

Sky: Hi, unfortunately we were unable to secure the online rights for the the Cricket at the weekend. Thx SW

That's not really an answer is it? I already knew that. Should I be a pest?

true , but is it not too early in the game to say. Though I see they are crap in SC.

 

[IAJ]

England need a 150 runs partnership here. Not looking good so far

 

[James]

SEEING AS I CAN'T WATCH IT have we scored a run yet?

Whippy , BCCI.TV showing live. Ravi Shastri though

 

[nish_mate]

It is early, but never once on the home soil was the England batting scorecard looking this frail.

Was just pointing out, what a big boost up playing in your backyard can be...

For me the payback has to be next year-this is just a distraction.... wont tell us anything that we dont know...

 

[Pure Evil]

ROFL!! ) Our phast bowlers love dead pitches )

 

[Ruri]

SEEING AS I CAN'T WATCH IT have we scored a run yet?

Yah , only when he is talking about swing and seam bowling. I don't think he is in the commentary box.

 

[nish_mate]

Is Gangs there?

He has got the potential to become a pain the back for the visitors

 

[Justcrazy]

This partnership is important here for England.

 

[James]

I think we won from 10-3 in the World Cup against Real South Africa. The Fakes can still carry us to a defendable total here.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Is Gangs there?

He has got the potential to become a pain the back for the visitors

As you say it my stream is dead

 

[JibranAnsari]

Yar why do india play vinay? Why not some half good pacer? Goni is better than him when i saw him 3 years ago.

 

[nish_mate]

6 overs 21/2

Need to get the Saffers off the pitch-by hook or crook....
