[Schickelgruber]

India will rely solely on their spinners to win matches unless they bat second.

 

[Sanchez]

India will rely solely on their spinners to win matches unless they bat second.

Last time I checked the WC is in the subcontinent. It'll be that way for most of the teams

 

[mastermind_quad]

we need some or all quick wickets ....

 

[mastermind_quad]

Taylor ...

 

[ganeshran]

[afridi_champ]

Could be all over below 200.

 

[mastermind_quad]

 

[PakCrikNeedsFixin]

I know we were all predicting high 300+ scores in this World cup but against any team with a good spin attack it will be difficult to get 260+

 

[The Slogger]

New Zealand is in our group right?

 

[anakwalajinn]

typical NZ

 

[ganeshran]

Why did Cricinfo miss the word OUT in its commentary for Ryder's wicket (25.4 )? Thats it, Cricinfo is biased against India, I demand an apology

 

[ads101]

I know we were all predicting high 300+ scores in this World cup but against any team with a good spin attack it will be difficult to get 260+

which is why teams who play spin well, like India will be able to score over 300 and get teams out for around 260.

The home advantage for India is incredible. They'll have the strongest batting attack, and a strong bowling attack able to threaten and limit top teams (if they pick a spin heavy one that is, which they undoubtedly will).

They're massive favourites for this world cup. I can only see teams like South Africa (who play well on these sort of tracks, plus they have amla who's excels against India) and Sri Lanka, and perhaps a small chance of Pakistan on a good day knocking them out. I don't see how anyone else really has a chance.

o yaa

[The Slogger]

Pakistan plays better in India than India

 

[mastermind_quad]

to How

 

[ganeshran]

How did How hit that ?

 

[spiron]

I have a question. Is yuvraj a sikh? If so does that mean not all the sikhs wear turban?

Yuvraj Singh belongs to Sikh community.
He got his hair cut long back. He was a proper Sikh/Sardar.

 

[mastermind_quad]

yes they are. alongside zimbabwe canada kenya australia and sri lanka

Pakistan should easily get in QF's

 

[ganeshran]

lOlz ..just saw that ...

I think Cricinfo should be named CricNZ for this. unbelievable level of bias

[mastermind_quad]

[ganeshran]

Styris dropped by munaf

[mastermind_quad]

yep both not difficult one....both lazy feilder IMO ...Munaf & Gambhir ....

nope he is a punjabi there is a diff

 

[ganeshran]

Munaf is an unbelievably lazy fielder. He needs to improve his attitude. I remember gavaskar took him to the cleaners once for his lack of seriousness.

 

[ganeshran]

How did How get ?

 

[mastermind_quad]

UV got How ...

 

[ozymandias]

how many runs were scored in over 28, and over 29?

In cricinfo commentary, it is saying 1 and 8 runs respectively. But end of overs score is different?

 

[ganeshran]

This time he holds on to the catch

 

[ganeshran]

how many runs were scored in over 28, and over 29?

In cricinfo commentary, it is saying 1 and 8 runs respectively. But end of overs score is different?

Very incompetent work by Cricinfo.. read the commentary on How's wicket

Styris had gone down the track for the lofted shot and ended up slicing it towards Munaf at long-off.

EDIT: Now changed to the batsmen

 

[mastermind_quad]

Munaf is an unbelievably lazy fielder. He needs to improve his attitude. I remember gavaskar took him to the cleaners once for his lack of seriousness.

In his favor ...he did worked on his fielding he was pretty impressive during NZ series ... ...but fir se laziness start ...

[ozymandias]

[mastermind_quad]

Its Drink ....jaldi wkt lo ..khatm karo yaar ....

 

[mithun_minhas]

Yuvraj is an Arya Punjabi.

He belongs to the Sikh Community. But they dont wear Pagdi and follow all the rules that other Sikhs follow.

My Sardar friend told me that most Non-Sikhs in Punjab do pray to Sikh Gurus as well as Hindu Gods. Its interesting.

 

[mastermind_quad]

@mithun_minhas Welcome to PP ...

 

[ganeshran]

^^ Isnt there a DD cricketer by the same name?

 

[mithun_minhas]

@mithun_minhas Welcome to PP ...

Thanks man

 

[mithun_minhas]

^^ Isnt there a DD cricketer by the same name?

I liked Mithun Minhas. He was one of the guys who had the potential but could not make it to the national team.

 

[Crazy_K]

^^ Isnt there a DD cricketer by the same name?

That is Mithun Manhas

 

[mithun_minhas]

That is Mithun Manhas

Its all the same man.
Manhas-Minhas are the same.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Chawla Strikes again!! Styris Out!!!

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Do you guys know that Mithun Manhas is from Jammu...

 

[ganeshran]

Do you guys know that Mithun Manhas is from Jammu...

Yup.. this year playing for RCB

 

[ZenBowman]

Nehra is the worst bowler in this tournament, even Canada probably has better pacers than us.

 

[QuarterBack]

My God, Nehra is getting tonked around!!!

 

[ganeshran]

Nehra isnt good enough to be a ball boy .

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

mucclum bicharay nethra ko sabak dey raha he.

 

[mastermind_quad]

chota McCullum in hitting mode....

 

[ZenBowman]

mucclum bicharay nethra ko sabak dey raha he.

Acchi baat hai, Dhoni needs to realize Nehra ki aukaat nahi hai international cricket khelne ke liye. Aise chamche bowlers ko harkiss nahi gend dena chahiye.
