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

[Statsman]

India's bowling

A population over a billion and no good pacers.

Look at this:
Even after losing
Pakistan still has

Why does someone who wasn't even required till the last match have to bowl 10 overs on a trot, and that too in the beginning of the innings?

Care to explain Mr. Dhoni.

84/1 in 15.

 

[Civil]

c'mon chennai crowd get into this!!

this is the world cup! be a 12th man for your team

sunny gavaskar not happy with the crowd.

also I'm loving darren lara bravo shots.

 

[Munna]

i really believe now that dhoni is an over rated captain!!

 

[Pak_Jazba]

How easily are we losing to Windies man )

We dont deserve to play QF, even Bangladesh defeated a good team. Bangladesh should be playing QF instead of us. We're a disgrace to the tourney, just a liability

Awwwww. Its fun cricket

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

I sense India are losing this game on purpose to avoid the aussies.

 

[md_tariq]

windies is cruising.

 

[hur rizvi]

Coz we don't have options, we are the arrogant brats of world cricket. We suck at bowling and we think we can still do with 1 good bowler, 3 average and 2 part time bowlers

Calm down mate


You are still no 1 arent you ??

 

[Markhor]

Darren Bravo looks a great talent,West Indies have a good pool of players but tend to need a kick up the backside.Sometimes the effort and commitment isn't there which is so frustrating but when they do perform,they are a real dark horse.Come on you Windies !

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

WWhos says India will win the world cup.

 

[Civil]

indians shouldn't be trying to avoid aussies.

India have beaten sri lanka in a world cup only once in 2003. Sri lanka can play better in these conditions than the aussies.

wat else do u expect when ur captain is insisting on dart throwers bowling non stop!!!

India always expect surprises to happen from their part timers n when they do happen, u defend totals.. otherwise not!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Raina in.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

86/1

 

[Poison]

Raina brought on now, with the wicket not offering any turn whatsoever.

Dhoni wants to play Sri Lanka.

My turn now.
Calm down young boy. Switch off the TV. Taking deep breaths might also help.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Awesome running.

 

[Munna]

this is excellent cricket from west indies so far!

 

[hur rizvi]

Looks like we are playing England in QF for sure

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Good running for 2

 

[Afridi_Fan]

)

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Out... bravo... throws his wicket away

 

[Statsman]

I see what Dhoni is trying to do here.
He's trying all the bowlers before the quarter finals. This match is almost inconsequential. Nothing wrong in that really.

 

[hur rizvi]

Darren bravo throws his wicket away

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[Deewana Mastana]

 

[ads101]

lol. What a joke.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Bravoo commits suicidee.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

There goes Bravo

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Darren Bravo throws away yet another start!

 

[Bhaijaan]

Finally a wicket

 

[ads101]

Yep. Especially since Raina won't be playing anyway in the quarters. Might as well get 10 overs from him now.

 

[Munna]

this is the only way west indies can lose this .. by throwing their wickets to part-wonder-expecting-timers

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Absoulute sucicidal from bravo.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

16.6


Raina to Bravo, OUT, suicide from Bravo. Oh boy, what have you done.


DM Bravo c Harbhajan Singh b Raina 22 (29b 1x4 1x6) SR: 75.86

Even cricinfo want India to lose

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Game on.

 

[hur rizvi]

WI have habit of throwing matches when they are in healthy position ....

 

[asif9138]

none of the teams wants to win!

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Pathan bowling well.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

I dont believe it if both teams want to lose to avoid the aussies in qf.

Care to explain Mr. Dhoni.

And you do remember we have been beating you in world cups with these bowlers?

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Bhajji has been out of form in the world cup so far.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

94/2 after 18

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

And you do remember we have beating you in world cups with these bowlers?

Dont worry mate, this year you wont beat us. INSHALLAH.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

 

[Afridi_Fan]

50 for Smith.

 

[Bhaijaan]

West Indies are still well in control

50 up for Smith, well done

 

[Afridi_Fan]

101/2 in 19.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

100 up for WI in 18.5 overs

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Well done Demon smith

 

[Munna]

sarwan and chanderpaul shud come up good for west indies now ... its surprising both of them haven't performed in any matches out of the 5 played!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

101/2 after 19 overs

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Drinks!

 

[Munna]

Well done Demon smith

u mean smith?

 

[jusarrived]

Yep. Especially since Raina won't be playing anyway in the quarters. Might as well get 10 overs from him now.

am not sure Raina wont be playing

 

[Statsman]

And you do remember we have been beating you in world cups with these bowlers?

How did you deduce that I am a Pakistani?

 

[Munna]

raina actually shud've been preferred over kohli ... he has more experience and was in supreme form before the wc!

plus he can throw in some darts too and is a very good fielder!

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

u mean smith?

smith he likha howa hai

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

100 up for WI

 

[Bhaijaan]

Dont worry mate, this year you wont beat us. INSHALLAH.

I don't think that's gonna happen, because we're crashing out of the world cup in QF

 

[Statsman]

dp: "What is Munaf doing in this match ? He cannot bat, he is not been given the ball...aah, he is in for his fielding!!:

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Bhaijaan]

How did you deduce that I am a Pakistani?

No one else has time to bash Indian bowlers )

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[Bhaijaan]

India has been real shame in this tourney man I am really really hurt

 

[Afridi_Fan]

107/2 in 20.

 

[praveen]

This game will also follow the familiar patter we've seen so far. End up scoring fifty runs short while batting. Let the opposition get back with incompetent bowling. Pull things back excellently at the eleventh hour. Then lose in the final over by asking munaf to bowl.

 

[Statsman]

No one else has time to bash Indian bowlers )

Really, are they that good? You've lost it mate.
5 posts back it was you who was saying in a hyper exited mode:

How easily are we losing to Windies man )

We dont deserve to play QF, even Bangladesh defeated a good team. Bangladesh should be playing QF instead of us. We're a disgrace to the tourney, just a liability

Talk about bashing.

 

[chui_kadoo]

what kind of fielding was that. Munaf just escorted the ball to the fence

 

[chui_kadoo]

India should have easily made 300. How on earth did they collapse to 269 all out

 

[Deewana Mastana]

2 runs

 

[Afridi_Fan]

115/2 in 21.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Munaf is the most useless player in the Indian side right now....

He cannot bow, bat nor field...

I prefer Ravindra Jadeja over him...

 

[asifp]

Dhoni's captaincy is really baffling at the moment

 

[asifp]

India should have easily made 300. How on earth did they collapse to 269 all out

They all thought they are Bradman
