India vs England | 1st Test | Ahmedabad | 16/11/12 | Day 2

I just remembered a few points:-

1) GG didn't get a hundred today because he suffered a concussion in England.

2) Viru didn't get a double hundred because he had suffered an injury during/after CLT20.

3) SRT didn't get a hundred today because he had suffered a tennis elbow in the past.

4) Yuvi- Cancer.

5) MS- Back spasms.

6) Kohli- Suffering from hair fall.

7) Zaheer- Suffering from pot belly syndrome:rana

8) Yadav- His cow just gave birth, so he has been busy nursing his calves:runaway:

So many injuries, how are the Indian's even playing:asif
 
Awww...you are hurting my English Sentiments mate...Don't act like an 8 year old :(

How dare you call Trott a donkey you flipping idiot. Dont you know he is the Lord of English cricket. That is when he is not a saffer. :wahab

But haven't we all agreed that anyone who has other opinions, is supposed to be 8 years old:kami

You forgot Vinay Kumar didnt get 5 wickets in tests because its not the IPL where every fielder is near the rope and slower balls (LOL how can it get slower than 125ks) dont work in Perth. :yk

To be honest, it has been fun seeing Botham squirm a bit over that Trottski incident....

Was it Sir Ian who said " no place for cheats in the game"....


Anyways knowing our "love for the spirit of the game" wont be surprised if Trott's given a second life overnight, post the Flower and Cook nightly shenigans to the Indian camp :D
 

Birmingham: England pacer Tim Bresnan has asked India to show 'more desire' if they wish to succeed in the cold weather here.

"It'd help if India's fielders didn't have their hands in their pockets. It's not that cold. They need to look interested (in play) and show some desire.

If you don't want to be here, go home," he said on Wednesday, before rejecting India coach Duncan Fletcher's observation that the ball had swung prodigiously in the ongoing series. "The pitch is playing all right. We were expecting it to be quicker and seam more," Bresnan told reporters.


Did Bressie show "more desire" in hot weather today.

"If you don't want to be here, go home," - Preach it brutha. And Practice the same too mmmmkay.

It wont matter when England drops him for Monty. Please England do it. We want to hear new excuses from your fans not the same ones.
 
Sky's post match analysis was very blunt and scathing on Andy Flower(and even Andrew Strauss? for their consistent team selection and tactics), especially on the same old batting order that England used and sending in Nightwatchman ahead of Trott. In fact, Nass openly suggested that it could be the refusal from Trott to go in and play few overs at the wee end of the day may have made cook to send Jimmy ahead.

Beefy was very critical on field setting, in particular for Swann.

But as other posters above me suggested here, it is still it is not all lost and gloomy for England. Their best players of spin are at the crease and can make life difficult for Indians on the field tomorrow. Cook has the patience to play long inning and KP can counter attack Indian spinners. We need to get these two batters out as quickly as possible to have firm grip on the game.

ZOMG! These are some way tooooo creative excuses for not scoring runs :))
 
England has got right combination at the crease right now. Both batsmen will be crucial in this inning.

Can England promote Prior ahead of Bell? I don't think that would be bad idea.

Spirit of cricket is a joke. Do as I say and not as I do. More "Spirit of cricket" from the English.
