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

[mastermind_quad]

its seams my player's century will be in vain .....

 

[Bhaijaan]

268 is still a good score but our middle and lower order batter's form is a bigger cause of concern than over overly-maligned Bowling attack.

For Pakistan, Sri Lanka, RSA, Australia's bowling line-ups.
We can't defend this unless WI intentionall wanna lose and avoid Aussies

 

[asad100101]

Yup. Wi will lose the match purposely. No one wants to play against Aussies. Wi will take on pak any day of the week than Australia.

 

[Statsman]

I finally got a 5-wicket haul in an ODI. Roachy got sick and I got a call up suddenly. I went out there and did my job for the team. Early on there was some bounce on this track. We assessed it well. In the end I tried yorkers; it worked. Once you have long partnerships you can take this. It''s an awesome crowd man. They cheered.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Yet another Indian collapse. I think they will have enough runs to win though!

 

[talha3]

lol, both teams aiming to lose this. We could be seeing no balls and wides from the bowlers and hit wicket's and edges from the batsman.

 

[jattafridi]

India dont wanna play against Australia in QF thats why they doing all this

 

[Love Pakistan]

Both teams are trying to lose.... I think India can win this one...

 

[Markhor]

Fantastic bowling from Rampaul !

 

[pakcricketfan]

That's exactly what I was saying to my brother a while ago.

 

[Statsman]

Collapses of epic proportions. India seems to have mastered them...
Here:
41.3 overs India 218/3
49.1 overs 268 all out
46 deliveries 6 wickets

Vs South Africa
39.3 overs 267/1
48.4 overs 296 all out.
55 deliveries 9 wickets.

There was one against England too.

Vs England

45.5 overs 305/3
49.5 overs 338 all out
24 deliveries 7 wickets

To think it in this way. India is improving (LOL)
Collapse Comparison
Vs England 3.43 deliveries per wicket
Vs South Africa 6.11 deliveries per wicket
Vs West Indies 7.66 deliveries per wicket

 

[Markhor]

Gayle
Smith
Bravo
Sarwan
Chanderpaul
Pollard
Russel
Sammy
Benn
Roach
Rampaul

if they play this team against us were in one heck of a game.

No wicketkeeper in that team though.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Single taken.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Parvez: "Bhajji proved his worth. May have got Pollard's wicket even without bowling!!" No news on Pollard yet. He didn't look good at all, when he came down

Any news on Pollard?

 

[Poison]

Waleed are you Indian?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Waleed are you Indian?

No

What makes you think that?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

8/0 in 2.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Another

 

[Poison]

No

What makes you think that?

Just asking young chap

 

[pakcricketfan]

LOL.. Ashwin bowls like a "naag"

 

[Afridi_Fan]

14/0 in 3.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Just asking young chap

Ok Ok.

 

[mrk]

Was that the bowler ppl was talking about ? Does not look good at all for me... strange action

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Poison]

Cracking shot Devon Smith.

 

[Poison]

LOL FAIL UMPIRE ir

 

[jattafridi]

No

What makes you think that?

I saw indian flag 12 days ago now is Australian
venue hyderabad india now cricket ground

 

[Afridi_Fan]

20/0 in 4.

 

[mrk]

that was OUT lol

 

[Levity]

There was a run-out not called for.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Wow, WI get away with a run out there as Taufel didn't even go to the third umpire

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Guess what WI's ultimate aim would be?

They don't want to lose this match like a club cricket team, So for that they would try to increase the run rate while doing so they may even lose wickets. When the runrate will be approximately 7-8 RPO, They would start to collapse. On The other hand, The story for Indians is Quite difficult. They may deliberately try to bowl no-balls wides etc. Difficult in the sense as what happened with Trio when they bowled

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why wasn't that given out?!

 

[Eagle_Eye]

that was clear run out.... howler from Taufel

 

[insaftak]

blunder by Simon Taufel

 

[Khan6575]

Edward was out, even the umpires want us to play England.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

What was that?

3.5 Khan to Smith, no run, aha, the stumps are hit. Short ball outside off, and India haven't appealed! This is appalling.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Who would've been out if it was given?! India will surely have a crack at the end of the match!

 

[Levity]

Match fixed? How could Taufel miss that? Taufail

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

I saw indian flag 12 days ago now is Australian
venue hyderabad india now cricket ground

I remember, I had one. I was just supporting them at that time. I don't remember what made me do that.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

24/0 in 5.

 

[QuarterBack]

What was that?

Zaheer asked the ump and Kohli def appealed...

 

[jattafridi]

umpire also want india to lose )

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

LOl

3.5


Khan to Smith, no run, aha, the stumps are hit and the umpires haven't given a run out. It wasn't the strongest appeal yes, but still. Smith cuts to point and they think of a single. Kohli catches Edwards short at the bowler's end, but Taufel doesn't give it. Or refer it. Apalling.

What's going on

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Taufel

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Cameras aren't stopping following Taufel around

 

[BaaliSoda]

Even AShocker has not done that before i guess. What happen to Taufel?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Harby goes for 2

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Some bounce for Harby

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

WI want to win?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Edwards

 

[Eagle_Eye]

6......

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Dances down the pitch and straight over the bowler!

 

[Levity]

Edwards is unleashing now as well. What have you done Taufel!

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Indian bowling is just too toothless

 

[Deewana Mastana]

33/0 after 6 overs

 

[Poison]

Kirk 'Chris Gayle ka baap' Edwards hitting Harby for six.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

33/0 in 6.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Bad news : Pakistan likely to face SA

 

[Bhaijaan]

Windies on complete control.

India is easily losing this match and shamefully going into the QF without doing anything. Thanks to this format

 

[BaaliSoda]

I think thats out . Ashwin's first wicket

 

[Pak_Jazba]

Get set for a Pak vs England game

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Review.

You ain't even trying to win it.

As I type, Review taken.

 

[Bhaijaan]

[Afridi_Fan]

Bad news : Pakistan likely to face SA

[BaaliSoda]

That's a carom ball

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[jattafridi]

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[Levity]

Who will India play if they lose? I know that they face the Aussies if they win.

Sri lanka

 

[pakcricketfan]

Was that the bowler ppl was talking about ? Does not look good at all for me... strange action

Exactly! Look at how he moves his hand in circles over his head :naag

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

How exactly?

From Indians' body language, It seems like they are keen to lose this one. So if they lose to WI. Pak will face SA right?
