Let the begin

 

[AlizeeFan]

Batting first? It's winter in Mohali. Dew can affect bowlers.

Batting first? It's winter in Mohali. Dew can affect bowlers.

I think englands only chance to beat India is to chase, so batting 1st aint to clever an idea!

 

[velu]

England 5 after 2 overs.
Both the openers off the mark

 

[Bhaijaan]

Down with Cold, not going to stadium

[Bhaijaan]

[Bhaijaan]

Kieswetter out for 36

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bowling 145 KPH for fun, this lad is good

 

[Romali_rotti]

This Yadav kid seems consistently quick, I dont think I have seen him ever bowl in the 130's, so far his quickest being 148 ks and consistently in the mid 140s...

 

[Bhaijaan]

146.8 kph

 

[Amjid Javed]

India seem to have finally replaced Kumble with Kohil

 

[Romali_rotti]

[AlizeeFan]

Both saffers are batting well.

 

[Bhaijaan]

KP and Morgan are the only proper ODI batsmen in English team

 

[Bhaijaan]

We are not helping ourselves by taking Yadav off after a few loose overs. WHAT PHATTU MENTALITY

 

[velu]

138/2 after 26 overs..

[Sherlock]

There's a reason I hate home umpires in home games.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Match is happening at Mohali

 

[velu]

In the last two games England chocked after 30 overs :kd

 

[AlizeeFan]

Hawk-eye for KP's wicket

 

[Amjid Javed]

KP out to yet another SLA )

 

[velu]

@f_c

mohali crowd doesn't shout in sync like other crowds ( ooooo aaaaa ooooooo aaaaaa )
they just make a noise as ooooooooooooooooooo

 

[Bhaijaan]

We need Trott to stay there till the end

 

[velu]

good comeback from umesh, gave4 runs in his last two overs

 

[Bhaijaan]

And a lot of Punjabi love words you never get to hear

[Bhaijaan]

Taufeeq Umar batting on 196

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bopara is actually the only local player today , he plays for KingsXI

 

[Bhaijaan]

Run rate drops to 5 an over

 

[velu]

180/3 after 36 overs..

i m loving trott

 

[velu]

choking time for England :kd

 

[Bhaijaan]

What a delivery

 

[Bhaijaan]

In comes Samit Patel

 

[Bhaijaan]

Need some wickets

 

[velu]

England marching towards 300

 

[Robert]

Come on lads, get 30 off the last three overs.

 

[Looney]

tuk tuk trott should have given away his wicket but he will do a and score a 100 )

 

[velu]

Fat patel

 

[Statsman]

Good score by England. Should be an exciting match.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Brilliant innings by the fat boy - well played. Shame for Trott.

This is going to be a tough total to chase.

 

[velu]

England 298/4 ..

Seeing Fat Patel rolling over our bowlers effortlessly, it should be a batting paradise

 

[Bhaijaan]

Good total by Team England.

There best chance of winning

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Even if dew is there, anything around 300 is always a tough challenge especially given we don't have our full strength batting, last match we scored so quick because there wasn't any pressure, it'll be different this time.

ATM I reckon England are favourites.

 

[Amjid Javed]

A testing chase for India for once!

 

[Bhaijaan]

Anything over 270 is a tough task.

 

[Robert]

Anything over 270 is a tough task.

Fatel will soon pay you back lots of runs, and Dernbach will be dishing up the pies.

 

[Bhaijaan]

I hope so.

 

[velu]

Hope Rahane does well.

Rahane's wicket is pretty easy to get, keep some men at the boundary for pull shot and bowl short, he will gift his wicket.

Shiva and Hoggard in commentary box

 

[velu]

Ind 23/0 after 4 overs..
Only one mistimed shot so far , handle Swann then game is ours

 

[ares1000]
