India v West Indies| Group B | WC'11 | Chennai |20/03/11

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[asifp]

India has made batting tracks through out the world cup. If their batting does not click their bowling line up will struggle.

 

[chui_kadoo]

Need wickets and fast

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Smith doesn't care who they could face after winning against India.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

126/2 in 23.

 

[Munna]

dhoni to mummy daddy bachon ki tarah bolta hai )

 

[KingKhanWC]

West Indies chasing this down with ease.

Looks like we will be playing the barmy army England team in the q/f.

 

[Statsman]

Come on Dhoni.
Playing against Australia will actually be better than playing against Sri Lanka. Think about it once. linga

 

[Afridi_Fan]

3rd umpire decision.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Now we are scared of England

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Safe.

 

[Riff]

. damm, not liking this

Im guessing you dont wanna face England in QF?

 

[Dragon]

Windies should try to lose on purpose as well.

 

[chui_kadoo]

what was that. What was Dhoni doing. Dhoni didnt even attempt the run out

 

[Afridi_Fan]

128/2 in 24.

 

[chui_kadoo]

Seems like India do not want to win this match at all after seeing that run out attempt

 

[KingKhanWC]

Now we are scared of England

Rather play Engerlen than these Windies.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

wicket coming

 

[chui_kadoo]

Im guessing you dont wanna face England in QF?

Yes because England always beat us

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Patel comes on.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Patel back, India turn to pace.. well sort of.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Munaf's shameless smile irritates the hell outta me

 

[mithun_minhas]

Trundler back in the attack......

Munaf the pile of garbage with the ball...

 

[Statsman]

Now this is blatant. Totally blatant indeed.
1) Part timers being smashed around for 6's and 4's and Dhoni still continuing with them.
2) Zak, Bhajji, Munaf and Ashwin having 26 overs left between them.
3) Munaf not bowled even a single delivery.

All this leads to believe that Dhoni really wants to lose the match. But why? Sri Lanka won't be a walk in the park MSD.

Munaf gets the ball. Too late for him.

 

[asifp]

they players are getting their a$$ kicked, and seem to be enjoying it.

India's best bowler has bowled zero overs yet insane

 

[jattafridi]

come on India

need some wickets

 

[Riff]

Yes because England always beat us

We might have the better team on paper, but I agree, England have the edge because they have beaten us so often recently

 

[Munna]

Yes because England always beat us

but not in the WCs

but overall we don't have a bad record against them ... i say bring it on .. lets take sum inteqaam

 

[Sheikh_Chilli]

Bring back Ashish Nehra!


Sheikh 'Tongue-in-Cheek' Chilli

 

[KingKhanWC]

India will have a better chance against the Lankans. Aussie pace attack can blow away any batting side if they are on fire.

 

[chui_kadoo]

If India lose this I really hope they get battered by SL. Dont understand why they are scared to face Australia

 

[Dragon]

India will lose to sri lanka, this is a disgrace what india is doing right now.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Ab samaj aye, Devon wants to avoid Pakistan

 

[chui_kadoo]

We might have the better team on paper, but I agree, England have the edge because they have beaten us so often recently

Shoaib Akhter always does well against England. He has trotts and Strauss's number but I guarantee you that Afridi/Waqar will not play Shoaib.

 

[chui_kadoo]

This is shameful stuff by India. How blatant can it get.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

132/2 in 25.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Munna]

this is superb batting against the dutch bowling!

 

[KingKhanWC]

Lovely timing by Ramnaresh Sarwan, easy as you like.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

West Indies 132/2 (25 ov)

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[Afridi_Fan]

139/2 in 26.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

this is superb batting against the dutch bowling!

)

Brilliant.

 

[Sheikh_Chilli]

Is the crowd still up there in the stands ?.

Can't tell...


Sheikh 'Angasht-e-Badandan' Chilli

 

[asifp]

11 overs bowled between Pathan/Rain/Yuvi

now can he use his main bowlers?

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

When will this one man show end?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Is the crowd still up there in the stands ?.

Can't tell...


Sheikh 'Angasht-e-Badandan' Chilli

Angasht-e-Badandan, heard it after ages. Brought some good memories.

 

[Markhor]

The crowd have been dreadful,get behind your team !

 

[Afridi_Fan]

50 Partnership.

 

[sam]

If India do lose this one, the match should be investigated by the ICC.

Intentionally playing to lose a game is just not on. No matter what the reason for doing so is.

Really questionable tactics being employed by Dhoni.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[KingKhanWC]

short, wide and spanked for 4. shot.

 

[NorthStar]

Is this match for real?

India on home conditions getting tonked by #8 ranked side???

 

[Afridi_Fan]

146/2 in 27.

 

[Munna]

never saw smith playing this good ..
i thought of him as another version of Ravinder Jadeja before this match

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

India to bounce back by giving ball to munaf in last 10 overs?

 

[ZenBowman]

One of the more pathetic bowling shows I have seen, very lazy, playing like they are afraid of Australia.

 

[KingKhanWC]

123 to win.

Yahoooooo, change of bowling, the Turbanator returns.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

One of the more pathetic bowling shows I have seen, very lazy, playing like they are afraid of Australia.

You are still not sure?

you can never prove it. As long as it wasn't done for money

 

[chui_kadoo]

I so badly want us to face WI instead of England. Come on India

 

[Rizwan25]

is this a test match? it feels like it

 

[sam]

Pathetic that Zaheer has bowled just 2 overs. India's best bowler of the tournament bowls only 2 overs with his side in desperate need to wickets.

Pathetic.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Maiden.

146/2 in 28.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Maiden. Good over there.

 

[chui_kadoo]

well played Sarwan. Good work. Keep playing out maidens

 

[Munna]

wow a maiden!!!

Netherlands shud award Harbhajan with a Pride of Performance award

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Pathetic that Zaheer has bowled just 2 overs. India's best bowler of the tournament bowls only 2 overs with his side in desperate need to wickets.

Pathetic.

They want to avoid Aussie.

 

[ads101]

What really makes me angry as India are favourites in this tournament. They should be scared of no one. You might expect this of a mid ranked or lower ranked team, but from disputedly the best team in the world on these tracks? It's just not right. It's cowardly.

 

[sam]

you can never prove it. As long as it wasn't done for money

Will take some convincing to explain Zaheer bowling just 2/28 overs in the WI innings.

 

[Statsman]

It seems like the first time Pakistanis are cheering for India to win. Yay!

 

[james_bond]

Is zaheer or munaf injured?

 

[chui_kadoo]

WI need to start playing test cricket here

 

[Bhaijaan]

Munaf Not giving him a room

 

[KingKhanWC]

I so badly want us to face WI instead of England. Come on India

Windies are far more dangerous. England only have 3 and half bowlers and Prior opening the batting.

 

[ZenBowman]

You are still not sure?

Our bowling attack is so poor that I can never be sure, maybe they are really this bad?

 

[sam]

If anything, India must avoid to play SL. Good bowling, good batting and good fielding side. In form too.

 

[NorthStar]

Bollywood Tamasha scripted match xy

 

[rajachoudhary50]

you can never prove it. As long as it wasn't done for money

EGGGjactly ...How will they prove it if there is no money involved.

 

[ZenBowman]

Munaf bowled one phasssssst delivery, I was amazed to see it.
