India v England | WC'11 | Group B | Bangalore | 27/02/11

[Bhaijaan]

Let the show begin!

Broad is out of the match with illness

 

[jattafridi]

dhoni won the toss and he bat first

 

[ddss]

Broad has been their best seamer, tough luck for England

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bad news for sub continental fans, Broad is out

 

[ddss]

"Never have felt worse" Broad

 

[Energy]

India to bat. Expecting a healthy total.

 

[spoiled]

broad got ill?

or maybe england dont want to give india that edge

 

[Bhaijaan]

MSD wins the toss ! What a shocker

India bats first

 

[spoiled]

"Never have felt worse" Broad

what channel?

 

[Romali_rotti]

From Cricinfo:

Apparently there are a hoard of Indian fans who have travelled out from England, a quirk on the Barmy Army I suppose. They are being interviewed on Indian TV at the moment, much to their delight. With that Broad news you might want to get updating your Fantasy team, I know I need to.

lol Home patriotism at its best....

 

[jattafridi]

just look at the atmosphere in the ground pressure match for England

 

[ddss]

what channel?

just read it on cricinfo

 

[Bhaijaan]

Cricinfo-

Broad out
Goodness, that's a huge blow. He was England's best defence against the Sehwag typhoon. Rumours are that James Tredwell was being congratulated in the team huddle. Not sure if it was by the Indian batsmen. )

 

[Energy]

Chawla playing over Ashwin. On merit I suppose.

 

[Wised up]

Broady out! Big blow for English men..

 

[md_tariq]

win the toss and win the game. Nothing great even if India win this game. they should win it when they bat second.

 

[jattafridi]

MSD wins the toss ! What a shocker

India bats first

dont worry he will lose in QF

 

[Bhaijaan]

The stadium is jam packed ! Hoping for a match to remember for years

 

[ZenBowman]

Broad is out, Shahzad is in, who can actually do some damage.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Changes-

PIYUSH CHAWLA IS IN !
replacing Nehra

 

[Romali_rotti]

Just had a call from my cousin from the stadium in Banglore,,, I cant hear anything except the crowd hahah.

 

[jusarrived]

Chawla playing over Ashwin. On merit I suppose.

to an extent yes , but Ashwin being an off spinner is alos working against him with Harbhajan already in the team

 

[AZ]

England had a slim chance, well now they have zero chance of winning this one.

will have to eat some humble paaye tonight!

 

[Bhaijaan]

dont worry he will lose in QF

The way the team has been performing, toss has become irrelevant in ODIs actually
it does hurt in tests sometimes though

 

[jusarrived]

win the toss and win the game. Nothing great even if India win this game. they should win it when they bat second.

our record chasing totals is is good .

 

[Bhaijaan]

England had a slim chance, well now they have zero chance of winning this one.

will have to eat some humble paaye tonight!

why?
they should look to restrict india to anything less than 300 which would be chasable as the Indian bowling is not that strong

 

[PB]

I thought it was Bangalore..Why do they call it Bengaluru

 

[ddss]

Pressure on Swann tonight

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Let's go England. Come on Shahzad

 

[Bhaijaan]

win the toss and win the game. Nothing great even if India win this game. they should win it when they bat second.

India is currently the best chasing side in the world i believe.
They are holding world record of 16 consecutive successful chases

 

[jusarrived]

I thought it was Bangalore..Why do they call it Bengaluru

cos it was Bengaluru for the locals

 

[Bhaijaan]

Cricinfo's Andy Zaltzman is tweeting from the ground and has this: "Atmosphere possibly electric. Hard to tell. Some soulless muppet has decided to blast low-grade 80s pop music over stadium PA for last hour."

[Ashraful_Rox]

why?
they should look to restrict india to anything less than 300 which would be chasable as the Indian bowling is not that strong

Indian bowling attack is vastly underrated

 

[jattafridi]

I know india is a very strong team but still i am supportng England

 

[hussnainn]

Electrifying Atmosphere

India batting first at home, I don't think there is any bowling lineup in the world that can stop them right now.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Indian bowling attack is vastly underrated

Its honestly poor, but on a given day these bowlers can play out of their skin and outperform the opposition bowling

 

[cric_fan82]

Stuart Broad chickens out! LMAO

 

[PB]

India batting first at home, I don't think there is any bowling lineup in the world that can stop them right now.

Really?

 

[ddss]

LOL who was that lifting the kid

 

[Bhaijaan]

India batting first at home, I don't think there is any bowling lineup in the world that can stop them right now.

Australia restricted India to 200 odd 2 weeks ago. Indian batting line-up is capable of under performing:rana:umarakmal

 

[AZ]

I just hope Ajmal has a good game, should be a huge lesson for him playing against the likes of Sachin and Sehwag in India.

welcome to the big time, matey!

 

[PB]

LOL who was that lifting the kid

Munaf McGrath!

 

[Blitz]

) ) )) ) ))

 

[Bhaijaan]

Stuart Broad chickens out! LMAO

He sensed annihilation

 

[Blitz]

They totally messed up Englands anthem.

Mind games?

 

[PB]

Is that a asian kid?

 

[emclub]

ill broad sits out............Haahhahaahahahhaha

 

[hussnainn]

National Anthems

Everyone Please Sit Down

 

[Blitz]

Got to say this is a big time game, one we can ALL enjoy.

Mostly because Pakistan won yesterday

 

[PB]

The kids tall as Tendulkar.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Crowd building up nicely

 

[PB]

I thought Indias anthem was..Saray Jahan Say Acha..HinduSataaaan Humaraaaaaaaaa..

 

[Blitz]

Massive CROWD.

A perfect crowd may I say.....to be silenced

 

[hussnainn]

Whoever Loses today, I will find many reasons to be happy about it

 

[Blitz]

Whoever Loses today, I will find many reasons to be happy about it

The beauty of this match has no limits

Hindi Commentary

Bharti Captaan ne keh diya hai k jab toss jeetne k baad 35 40 hazar darshak jab aap ka swagat karte hain to barhiya khelne ki bhawnaein jaag uthti hain..

 

[Bhaijaan]

Tendulkar and Veeru get a big cheer !

 

[malakian]

I've just woke up to find out that India is batting first & no Broad. This isn't going to be pretty.....

 

[AZ]

getting the same butterflies in the stomach from yesterday!

very nervous for Ajmal, hope he does well!

c'mon puttar!!!

 

[hussnainn]

Bharat ki Salami jori Sachin Tendulkar aur Sehwag Morcha Sambhal rahay hain..

 

[Bhaijaan]

England are no push overs says Shastri

I'd like to know Bold Sehwag's view on that

 

[malakian]

Damn it!!!!!!! Lucky sod.

 

[hur rizvi]

[Blitz]

I usually despise India, but watching England fail so so much fun as well

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

[Blitz]

Another massive chance for catch. Just over the top.

 

[hur rizvi]

Sehwag living dangerously ...

 

[hussnainn]

OMG!!!!! this match

 

[jusarrived]

Anderson very unlucky ,

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

sehwag so lucky to be there, batting like a tailender

 

[malakian]

It's already going to be one of those days i think. We should've had a wicket.

 

[Blitz]

Anderson bowling well

 

[Blitz]

Crowd go nutz!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Love England's jersey, has to be second best after Pakistan.
