[cricketinblood]

Fake Pathan is made to look **** in internationals once again despite being a bully in the IPL.

infact this IPL he was pretty ordinary...

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Why are they playing pacers ?!

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Dhoni hits a FOUR against his Chennai Teamate and follows it up with a single

 

[don1990]

hundred by raina.......

 

[Romali_rotti]

Daime this Raina Kid can really hit.........

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Hits a SIX...what a way to get to his century..

 

[don1990]

raina after well made hundred

 

[JeeraBlade]

Well played. Raina!

 

[Inswinger]

Amazing knock by Raina

 

[kashmiri_lad]

But gets OUT next ball

 

[cricket_fever]

well done raina!!!

 

[TalhaSyed]

Brilliant knock by Raina

 

[don1990]

178/5 2 balls remaining in the innings

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Well batted Raina!

 

[strongman123]

wow...sotuh africa bowling attack looks weak..apart for steyn though he didnt pickup wickets either

 

[dukki_badshah]

Amazing knock

 

[Inswinger]

Indians only have 2 seam bowlers.

 

[imran666]

hats off to raina ..one of the best t20 innings ive seen in a wile

 

[don1990]

poor throw & boucher not collect the ball )

 

[wanted_desi]

infact this IPL he was pretty ordinary...

Don't know why is he being selected to play in 11, when they got rohit Sharma.

 

[don1990]

to end the innings....

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Dhoni finishes off with a SIX

 

[don1990]

india made 186 in 20 overs...

 

[Sledger]

Neither Morkel is international standard in the shorter forms.

 

[kingusama92]

Excellent knock by Raina.

It will be quite a chase if South Africa pull it off.

 

[Inswinger]

Indian bowlers should be happy.

 

[imran666]

Well batted Raina!

actully he battled u guys )

 

[RexRex]

186/5 .. fabulous effort on this wicket

 

[cricketiac]

india smashed 75 runs in their last 5 overs

 

[JeeraBlade]

India

75 runs in last 5 overs.

143 runs in last 12 overs.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

So,,186 it is..Lets see what Saffees have in store..
I think its a defendable total....
especially when India have got better spinners.....

 

[Fawad2010]

It will be good to see how Smith's XI will respond to a total of 186!
I think they should come all guns blazing and start with a good powerplay and remain try not to lose wickets early

 

[Gabbar Singh]

haha at Rameez: 'you do not have any muscles so how can you hit the ball so far'

 

[Fawad2010]

Bosman, Smith and Kallis will be the key, two of these need to fire and add 75+ scores each

 

[JeeraBlade]

Harsha Bhoglay ----- what a moronic whiner!!!

He is blaming Karthick's dismissal on big boundaries. )

Harsha --- wake up buddy! You are not in Mumbai and Modi is not running this show. Quit whining!

This idiot did not whine about big/long boundaries during Raina's innings. )

 

[GLORY OF '92]

I think the pitch is good. 172 and 186 are not possible on a bad pitch.
SA look flat, if they continue like this then we should be comfortable vs them in the super 8s.

 

[Momo]

What a phainti to South Africa!

Amazing hiiting at will display by Raina!

 

[RexRex]

who was the other guy who hit a 100 in international t20 apart from gayle ?

 

[Abdullah22]

india smashed 75 runs in their last 5 overs

I hate India by heart but that's a good achievement.

 

[Sledger]

Smith not opening!!!

 

[Sledger]

who was the other guy who hit a 100 in international t20 apart from gayle ?

McCullum.

 

[Inswinger]

who was the other guy who hit a 100 in international t20 apart from gayle ?

Gayle 117 against South Africa
McCullum 116* against Australia

 

[Momo]

Considering the fact that the Proteas have the mental strength of a snail, this pasting might leave irreversible mental trauma on their consciousness.

 

[Momo]

The Proteas playing for a draw.

 

[JeeraBlade]

Considering the fact that the Proteas have the mental strength of a snail, this pasting might leave irreversible mental trauma on their consciousness.

As in "not being able to win a World Cup"? but, oh wait ---- when was the last time they did that?

 

[UP]

Porteas need to accelerate now.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Mad thinking by SA with this sort of start???

 

[Momo]

Yusuf Pathan so bored he has started playing with himself.

 

[UP]

Bosman OUT

 

[Ali Raja]

India will win easily.

 

[Sultanofswing]

now bosman is back to home, not a good sign for chokers...

 

[Momo]

As in "not being able to win a World Cup"? but, oh wait ---- when was the last time they did that?

No, I was thinking about "going on to get a Kabul-style pitayee from the Afghans" kind of mental trauma.

 

[Boi]

NOOOOOOOOO Not good at all for my fantasy team.

Need De Villiers to play a blinder when he comes into bat.

 

[Boi]

"Hold on....is dat ball tamperin?!" ) ) )

 

[Inswinger]

Seems the Proteas have given up already.

 

[saj001]

Bosa hUwa naaan dissapoints again

 

[Momo]

That racist is a far better batsman than this Bosman guy.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

25/1

 

[Sultanofswing]

are we playing on the same ground?

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

South Africa can't find any boundaries.

 

[JeeraBlade]

That racist is a far better batsman than this Bosman guy.

who??

 

[Sultanofswing]

gibbs?

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

who??

Graeme Smith.

 

[imran666]

omg that was Bob Woolmer in the crowd witha SA helmet

 

[Momo]

What a bunch od pussycats, these Proteas.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Finally a boundary.

 

[Momo]

gibbs?

Yes.

 

[Animal]

The SAFs bowled just one over of spin in their 20 overs. That's their biggest mistake in this match. Its been proven time and again in T20 that spin is king. In contrast, India's spinning options are The Budge, Raina, Yuvraj, Pathan, Jadeja. This is India's game to lose, no doubt about it.

On edit: And there's Chawla in there too. A potential match winner by himself.

 

[Sultanofswing]

is afridi watching this game??? spinners are the key here, i guess afridi should open bowling. what u guys think?

 

[Momo]

What a pathetic commentator Ramiz is!

 

[Sultanofswing]

kallis is not hitting much coz theres no DLF maximums or Citi moment of successes....

 

[Ali Raja]

What a crappy match in a crappy pitch.

 

[Sultanofswing]

it takes hot cheerleader babes for proteas to fire

 

[RexRex]

what is SA trying to pull here ?

 

[Pak_Power]

SA playing themselves into the ground.

 

[Momo]

The Proteas seem to be waiting for a messiah.

 

[Sultanofswing]

The Proteas seem to be waiting for a messiah.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

The Proteas seem to be waiting for a messiah.

 

[Poison]

The Proteas seem to be waiting for a messiah.

He's on the way to the ground

 

[Momo]

The Markhors have arrived!
