India vs England | 1st Test | Ahmedabad | Day 1

[Sandeep]

Lucky for Gambhir there!!!

 

[cricketworm]

almost a wicket! phew

 

[Marshland]

Inside edge for the Gambit, gets lucky.

 

[IgnitedMind]

ball is not even carrying to the WK...low again!!

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[Sandeep]

England bowlers already getting frustrated at this pitch... Their batsmen should be scared at the thought of playing forth innings here

 

[Justcrazy]

England have a really hard day ahead, nothing in the pitch for fat bowlers.

 

[Sandeep]

Loving the way Barbie is bowling... Anderson isn't cut out for pitches outside Britain )

 

[Justcrazy]

Big toss won By India here

 

[LethalSami]

Jeez, this Indian ESPN stream I have is in Hindi!

why you no google for a better SkySports stream??????

i don't like to see people suffering, especially not hobbits!!! <3 LOTR

 

[Justcrazy]

England need to keep things tight , that is all they can do here.

 

[IgnitedMind]

so gauti still poking balls outside off stump!!

 

[IgnitedMind]

Sehwag!!

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

:4

 

[musaarthali]

Sehwag started........

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[Justcrazy]

Panesar would have been more effective here.

 

[PakPrince]

Sehwag could kill the English bowlers this series if he gets going.
No movement or pace, and he becomes a Viv

 

[LethalSami]

so gauti still poking balls outside off stump!!

give him a break!!

when he pokes Malcolm Ishant, y'all on his case

when he pokes outside off, y'all on his case

whatcha want?

 

[IgnitedMind]

2 for gauti

 

[Justcrazy]

India would be aiming to bat big here , get a big first innings score.

 

[Justcrazy]

England would not survive 4th day on this pitch.

 

[Anfield]

Good start from English bowlers. Been tidy so far. Pitch looks very dry. If India makes over 350 in the first innings game over for English boys.

Sehwag having fun

 

[velu]

[Anfield]

Bounce is very low.

 

[LethalSami]

Anderson's avg. getting a 30+ treatment......showing he's a mediocre bowler

 

[IgnitedMind]

sehwag !!

 

[Ruri]

Anderson feeding those wide balls.

 

[velu]

and one more :4

 

[ace58]

I love sehwags batting style. Always putting the bowlers on the back foot.

 

[James]

Looks like a dead pitch, 20 wickets for either side gonna be difficult.

 

[velu]

jimmy wants to go back to england

 

[Anfield]

Sehwag opening up. Lol

 

[Bhaijaan]

They are telecasting match in english as well as hindi. Star Sports showing the english stream.

No bounce at all in the pitch, lol good luck England.

 

[Justcrazy]

31 / 0

 

[IgnitedMind]

dravid in comm box !!!

 

[Anfield]

Looks like a dead pitch, 20 wickets for either side gonna be difficult.

No way dude. Pitch looks very dry it will start breaking by the end of day2

 

[ace58]

I don't think the pitch will break up. It will just remain dead for atleast 4 days I think. So India should try to score as quickly as possible to force a win.

 

[PakPrince]

This will be a long series for England

I predict half the side to have pulled out by the end of the tour citing 'injuries' lol

 

[Sandeep]

Deathbed for Anderson here! Bresnan would certainly do muchhh better! England will miss Finn here

 

[Anfield]

Pitch is full of very dry patches.

 

[James]

lol at doom-mongering after 40 minutes of a 4 test series

 

[IgnitedMind]

Looks like a dead pitch, 20 wickets for either side gonna be difficult.

Not a dead pitch....will be tough to bat from day 3 !!

 

[IgnitedMind]

Bresnan in

 

[Sandeep]

World's best pace bowler removed from the attack just after four overs?!!!! )

 

[IgnitedMind]

I am not sure how fast bresnan bowls normally....but he is bowling like vinay kumar now...125-130 !!

 

[Justcrazy]

37 / 0

 

[Justcrazy]

Indian spinners would get purchase here. Tough luck loosing the toss for england

 

[Sandeep]

Bring in Swann! Wanna see a contest here )

 

[IgnitedMind]

It will turn into a minefield when you bat on it sunshine

[cricketworm]

England not bowling well. Swann time

 

[IgnitedMind]

swann in...

 

[OutKast]

Swann to get Gambhir

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Pleasantly surprised by Gambhir. Its a flat pitch yeah but his approach has been far better, not looking to slash at anything and everything and also like his old-self ready to grind it out.

 

[PakPrince]

UN XI have missed a major trick by not playing Panesar

 

[Justcrazy]

68 / 0

 

[Justcrazy]

Monty Panesar is underrated here, he should be played ......... you got to go with 2 spinners on these kind of pitces.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[IgnitedMind]

sehwag

Two s !!

 

[BaaliSoda]

Gambhir survives yet another over from Swann but looked very shaky with his footwork and timing

 

[Random Aussie]

CricIndia full of sooking about the pitch. Both teams have to play on it y'all.

Good start from us, GG has been sensible and batted normally for the anchor work.

 

[LegendAli]

Sehwag on 46.

 

[Justcrazy]

Indians hamering away here

 

[Snow]

England chose 3 pacers, bresman is bowling around 120s

 

[cards fan]

why are these english commentators crying about pitch all the time? what did they expect? pitch to have full of grass like they had back home? have they not watched cricket in india? it has always been dry or flat wicket, atleast for the first 2 to 3 days.

 

[Justcrazy]

England likely to loose this game , unless they bat Big in first innings.

 

[IgnitedMind]

Sehwag 50 in 45 balls !!!

 

[jeetu]

Typical faster than run a ball 50 from Sehwag on home turf.

 

[Justcrazy]

Bresnan is a poor choice over Monty, I do not think Bresnan can contribute that much with bat either.

 

[IgnitedMind]

Sehwag !!!!!
