India v Sri Lanka | 2nd ODI | Nov 6, 2014 | Ahmedabad

[Saurav]

This is where Shami adds value..

yeah but we need atleast one other guy who can bowl well in death

 

[battler]

Gamage reminds me of Debasish Mohanty, with the bowling action of his.

 

[McGarrett]

I was hoping he will do it today. But he didn't get too much strike in the last few overs.
Poor Mathews

I don't think that Mathews cares much about personal milestones. Otherwise he wouldn't have taken those singles at the death overs

 

[Justcrazy]

India should win this easily.

 

[Justcrazy]

Lanka need early wickets to be in the game.

 

[Noobosauras]

slow but risk free start

 

[Justcrazy]

Saving runs will not help , these to will explode when set

 

[IAJ]

Really poor commentary. All Shiva and Laxman talk about is Indian players. They should know there is another team at the ground as well.

That is why Ganguly is good commentator. He talks about both teams. People do also hate Shastri but I personally think he is also more neutral than many other indian commies.

 

[Justcrazy]

17 /0

6 overs

 

[Electron]

We have the most boring openers in the world

 

[Justcrazy]

Outttttt

Rahane gone.

 

[battler]

Rahane
in

 

[McGarrett]

Pathetic commentary by these Indian commies. All they are doing is talking about Indian FTBs.

 

[Saurav]

Kohli hiding,Rayudu in

 

[IAJ]

We have the most boring openers in the world

Noway, they are exciting, but compared to Sehwag and Gambhir theh might be a bit slow no?

Read my post above

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Poor decision.

 

[McGarrett]

Huge edge. Bloody cheaters

 

[Big Boss]

So the tailunetd Virat Kohli hiding against this mediocre bowling attack )

 

[McGarrett]

Shiva is saying that Dhawan is a very honest player.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

What a poor start - they are not even trying to hit 4s.

 

[battler]

What the hell kohli?!!
Hiding behind hackayudu, because u saw a hint of swing

 

[battler]

2 hacks playing at the crease.
How India play Rayudu in the playing XI is beyond, event tailunt sharma is way better.
I guess Rayudu's biryani is too good to resist!

 

[biggestdravidfan]

Huge edge. Bloody cheaters

Where did you come from ?

 

[IAJ]

This is not an easy wicket to bat on. You have to time your shots here.

 

[Electron]

Noway, they are exciting, but compared to Sehwag and Gambhir theh might be a bit slow no?

Dhawan bats like a tailender on sporting wickets, and his previous partner Rohit is a nightmare to watch overseas. Don't know about Rahane, but those two are the worst openers around unless the pitch is total batta.

 

[Sandeep]

Kohli dropped himself down the order as there isn't much experience left..

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Outsiders won't understand what a joke Dhoni has turned this into.

On one hand, he gives us cups.
On another, stuff like this.

The only hope for us is to see Rayudu play many games and fail so that he is discarded.

Can you believe Samson, Kedhar Jadhav, Uthappa don't get a chance and this guy does.

Sick. Sick. Sick.

Dhawan...that useless hack was out but not given.

 

[Big Boss]

Sanga is still angry

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Too much respect being given to this useless randiv
Need to clobber him and end his career instead of being content with just taking 3/4 off his over

 

[Nikhil_cric]

finally

 

[Sandeep]

Rayudu has a 45 ball 150 which is still a record in Hyderabad school circuit..Don't know why he turned into tuk tuk..

 

[Big Boss]

50 for Dhawan.
Sanga )

 

[Noobosauras]

They are playing very well actually, I dont care for run rate. Get us to 150 and we can accelerate from there.

 

[Sandeep]

India slowly confirming the authority.. Beautiful by Dhawan

 

[Sandeep]

Toying now

 

[Noobosauras]

Shikhar in 5th gear

 

[Noobosauras]

Lol Sanga making a nothing appeal

 

[battler]

Dhawan has finally cut loose!

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Dhawan nearing 100 SR now.

Rayudu at his usual SR.

At least hack Dhawan can accelerate once things go his way.

Rayudu...well sigh.

 

[Sandeep]

Dhawan nearing 100 SR now.

Rayudu at his usual SR.

Rayudu...well sigh.

Lol.. All the people want both these guys out of the team..

 

[Noobosauras]

Rayudu...well sigh.

Actually Dhawan is also not a hack. He hardly plays any cross batted slog. Even his six was with straight bat.

He has pretty weak technique though against moving ball.

Also plays short ball compulsively which is another chink in his armor.

But not a hack in true sense of the word.

Hence hack.

Can't play spin with proper footwork either. Quality spin that is.

He ain't a Yusuf Pathan hack but still a hack.

Russel Arnold ✔ @RusselArnold69

Arnold is blind lol

Get the mob.

Arrange for the stones, broken bottles and sticks.

CHARGE........................

 

[Sandeep]

Virat Kohli. He's chewing gum. That's always a good thing, I think. Gum-chewing batsmen are better batsmen.

) Bad ass

 

[battler]

Another gem from CI

Adesh : "For months, almost 2 years I was bitter and unconvinced about Dhawan replacing the hero that was Sehwag. However I can safely say the opening role is in safe hands with Shikhar Dhawan." [MENTION=134809]sensible-indian-fan[/MENTION], [MENTION=90229]Sandeep[/MENTION]99

 

[Sandeep]

Rayudu is playing some good shots.

Laxman is impressed. Ek sheher ke log

Noo.. Sehwag was Sehwag. No one in the cricket world can replicate what Sehwag did. Let us leave him alone.

Dhawan, well, let's wait for the world cup..

Arrgghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...................

Give me the bleedy gen.

GIVE ME THE BLEEDY GEN.

 

[battler]

Wow, class shot by

 

[Nikhil_cric]

In ODI's Sehwag underachieved a lot considering his ability. Did way better in tests considering his technique. Was an exception as far as batsman ship was concerned. Dhawan is pretty much the norm for batsman with unreliable technique.

 

[Arsal_AK]

The Lankan bowling attack is just pure class.

 

[Sandeep]

I'm depressed looking at the sad discussion that's happening in cricinfo.. "Mexican wave"

 

[Arsal_AK]

So, Kohli is going to bat at 4 from here on??

If so who replaces him at three??

 

[Sandeep]

So, Kohli is going to bat at 4 from here on??

If so who replaces him at three??

Oh, this actually makes sense.. Probably they're readying Kohli at no.4 because India has effectively 3 openers! When Rohit comes back he'd be opening and Rahane will be our new number 3..

 

[battler]

It's not confirmed, they are just experimenting prior to the wc.

 

[Justcrazy]

This is easy now for India

 

[leatherface58]

How did Prasanna succeed against Pakistan?

You guys are sooo right.

Its true.

Its true.

I never thought about it.

Rohit when he comes back will not go to No 4. He is a disaster in the middle order.

But Kohli can do a great job at No 4.

So just like WC 2011, we will play our 3 openers in the top 3 spots. No 3 is most likely to be Rahane.

How could I miss it?

Its so obvious.

[Justcrazy]

Only 109 required now

 

[Justcrazy]

105 from 18 overs.

 

[leatherface58]

Don shastri with a great evil laugh.

 

[IgnitedMind]

not sure where Rayudu gets bad rep from...he always seem to do well in his limited oppurtunities. During his early first class days..he was a gem...150 as an U19 cricketer against england was awesome. Just lost his way because of fights of shivlal yadav's son..arjun yadav and going to ICL...

however, massive downgrade for hyderabadi school of batting...from Silky god like wrists of Azharuddin to Elegant ondrives of VVS...to Rayudu's shots which are not pleasing to the eye..

 

[Justcrazy]

Lanka need to get couple of quick wickets here

I concur with you.. He's the anti-thesis of Hyderabadi style of batting

 

[Sandeep]

Why is Arnold so impressed with Rayudu?! Heaps of praise in the commentary

Mathews batted well though..

Rayudu - the new tormentor of Sri Lanka..

 

[Thivagar]

Sri Lanka picks Dilhara Fernando as a possible prospect for the last 2 odi vs India .......35 year old pace man

 

[IgnitedMind]

Rayudu turning it on...

Legend !

 

[Thivagar]

Rayudu - the new tormentor of Sri Lanka..

Replace "Rayudu" with All indian batsmen

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Some tough decisions ahead for BCCSL. The bowling is utterly toothless.

I bet he'd still be better than these fast bowlers of yours
