Most Indian fans dont rate jadeja at all..... Its laughable that Pakistani fans feel threatened by his stats.

lol. Threatened? I just told you I think he's an average slow left armer. Commies are building him up to be the new spin king. :warne

220 is a fighting score for Lanka.
 
He should bowl more often much better than kohli

But he doesn't have the luxury of having a genuine wicket keeper in the side everyday. If Karthik becomes a regular then he might in helping conditions.
 
Travis Dowlin of Windies was the man bowled by Dhoni...And Surprisingly that match was also in CT...2009
 
Jaddu is a matchwinner. Ranked 4th in the world, just helped us whitewash Aussies 4-0,far better batsman, 100 times better fielder..
Jaddu rocked CT, Ajju flopped. Infact, Jaddu has outbowled, outbatted, outfielded Ajmal massively in any tournament they hv played together.
Sir Jaddu is awesome.
Form is temporary class is permanant :tendulkar:
 
SL need at least 160-170 more runs in next 130 balls...
 
Come on sl hit them hard hit them very hard hit them extremenly hard ... hit them with hammer
 
Shane Warne rates Jadeja very highly. According to him the biggest secret of Jadeja is he himself doesn't know which bowl will turn and which won't. He just maintains a tight line and length and let the ball do its job.
 
Sandy: "Looks like the Dhoni ploy is working...not because he is bowling well...but because the batsmen dont want the ignominy of getting out to him."

Ajmal isnt playing in semis. hence commies will not talk about his bowling in the game. Its as simple as that.
All thing Indian isnt that bad my friend :)

You'll have to admit that the guy has shown tremendous improvement (incredible, I must say) after being labelled so ordinary during his early days with everyone making fun of him. I myself used to consider him a joke of a player.

Yeah, thats why I quoted the name too !!!

i feel Dhoni is giving the match away with his cockiness...ashwin needs to come in with Jaddu bowling at the other end

30.1
Jadeja to Mathews, no run, spin gets first wicket, it was fuller and drifting on to the pads, it pitches in line with the stumps and straightens a touch to hit the batsman in front of leg stump.. The umpire raises the finger immediately. Angelo asks for a review, perhaps more in hope, but there is no edge, and the batsman has been hit right in front. But hello, DRS shows this is going well over top. What a review! What a reprieve for Angelo. That looked plumb

how was that going over?:69:

He's improved his control and is using his brain more mixing up his pace, line and throwing in the quicker ball. Nothing against him but this is normal spin bowling which shouldn't be difficult for International batsmen to cope with.

Watch him against Mahela he looks average, others make him look like the magician which is why some Indian fans are getting confused :ajmal

He had Pakistans Best batsman clean bowled trying to defend a straight delivery !!!:misbah
 
The whole match now rides on Latish Malinga. He has had his share of spankings..now the stage is set for revenge.
 
Ashwin needs to quit this defensive line and go over the wicket, there is some turn for him.

Let's be honest, by no means he is exceptional. The point is he used to be a player (during his early days) in the mold of Shoaib Malik - a complete waste. He has come a long way to prove that he is a very competent player with both the ball and the bat, and he certainly deserves a place in the Indian team purely on merit. That's my point. During his early days we used to make fun of him saying he makes it to the team due to his friendship with Dhoni.

Fair point.

A pace bowling all rounder would have been ideal today, I would have gone with Irfan Pathan for these conditions.
 
Another 100 runs on the card here, given our expertise in death bowling.

~220~230, not a bad effort from our bowlers and add DL to the equation, if rain does arrives, we are in a great position ATM.
 
They should stop the innings and ask Indians to chase :)
Better they should have fixed the match in advance for 30 overs per side, to make sure that Rain doesn't spoil the match. That's better than match getting washed off due to rain with Srilanka's full 50 overs + India's 18 overs, and Finals Berth is based on league standings.
