India vs West Indies | 2nd Test | Mumbai | 14-18th November

[AamchiMumbaikar]

I'm losing confidence on Kohli, the test match batsman. Never learns to convert the starts.. very bad habit

He scored 57, was looking to score quickly
Can't hit centuries all the time

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Are yaaron score a quick 50/ 60 and declare/ get out
2nd innings will be fun

Not just scoring runs, you never feel he's settled in test matches. Always looking to score like in ODIs.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

^ This pitch is not a belter even Pujara was out @ 60 odd if not for the 3rd umpire

Now that Sachin has retired we will see out of Pujara, Kohli and Rohit who will be the best impact player in SA series

I hope Dhawan gives us a semi decent start to start with though

Rohit it will be. Wanna bet?

 

[Ims1]

409/7 . last 10 overs - 55/2 .

 

[Ims1]

231/7 & tea with 35 overs left for today . i hope MSD declares now .

 

[Scrolln]

Rohit it will be. Wanna bet?

I place my bets on Ashwin to be more successful in SA than all three.

Will come out after Steyn/Philander have wiped out the top order with India down in the dumps at 60/5 and score a Laxman-esque 70 odd against the old ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

India lead by 231 runs with 3 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[Scrolln]

231/7 & tea with 35 overs left for today . i hope MSD declares now .

I hope not, at least before the lead is 300+.

I dont think Sachin can better the first innings 74 in the second innings. Played all his trademark strokes barring the upper cut.

Cant think of a better way to remember him by, considering his recent form.

 

[Justcrazy]

India lead by 232 runs with 2 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[jattafridi]

excellent fielding run

 

[Justcrazy]

run out

 

[prayas]

Bring back ishant and vinay in second inning so sachin can bat another time

 

[Justcrazy]

Nick, more than the total no of Test runs, it is the centuries which Kallis can overtake, Sachin - 51, Kallis - 44, but Kallis is 38 and last scored a century last year in November. In terms of runs, he is behind Sachin by almost 3000 runs which would require Kallis to at least play a minimum of 3 more years."

PeterA: "Is there a record for most number of catches in an innings by a non-wk?" Sammy equals the record with five.

 

[Ims1]

sammy has taken 5 catches in this innings- a record .

 

[Ims1]

lead 250 .... declare .

 

[Ims1]

255/9

 

[Ims1]

shilly bowling his 38th over & 97th of innings .

443/9

 

[Ims1]

Sharma on for a ton here .

 

[Justcrazy]

shama playing brilliantly here

 

[Ims1]

this is probably Sammy's last test too.

 

[Justcrazy]

India lead by 268 runs with 1 wicket remaining in the 1st innings

[London_Lahori]

Declare Dhoni!!!!!!! Please...

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Rohit it will be. Wanna bet?

Started liking Rohit since his first IPL club Deccan Chargers days, he was in wilderness all these years blowing hot n cold

I want Dhawan, Pujara, Kohli & Rohit all to do well so that we have a solid Test batting line up in the coming years ...

 

[Justcrazy]

Current partnership 40 runs

 

[Buffet]

Brilliant batting by Sharma with tail.

 

[Indiafan]

Rohit rotating the strike and playing with tail like Inzi

 

[Ims1]

lead 274 .

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

I place my bets on Ashwin to be more successful in SA than all three.

Will come out after Steyn/Philander have wiped out the top order with India down in the dumps at 60/5 and score a Laxman-esque 70 odd against the old ball.

I hope Kohli and Ashwin guide IND to a good total if that's the case

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Rohit yaara jaldi century mar doo
MSD- declare immediately after that

 

[Justcrazy]

458 / 9

 

[Justcrazy]

Sharma will be third Indian to get 2 successive hundreds in his first two games.

 

[Ims1]

predict WI 2nd innings total .... i think 280 .

 

[Robbie]

WI players must be feeling like 'bin bulaye mehmaan in someone's (read sachin) shaadi.

 

[Ims1]

will msd declare after sharma's ton ?

 

[Ims1]

century for Sharma with a 6

 

[Ims1]

still no declaration

 

[Ims1]

shami struck two 4's

 

[Ims1]

declareeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. lead is 305.

 

[Ims1]

just 15 overs left . senseless batting on from here .

 

[Ims1]

313 lead . Will we bat again?

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Rohit is awesome!

Ananth Narayan, who writes for Cricinfo, says, "This will be my first and only comment on the commentary. As a cricket writer, analyst and writer for Cricinfo, I am dumbfounded and outraged by the way this whole thing is being treated. By ex-players, commentators, commenters and everyone else. This is ridiculuous. The game must remain supreme. I cannot but compare the last Tests of Dravid, Laxman, Lara, to mention a few worthies. To wish that the Indian wickets should fall in a heap or West Indies should score tons of runs etc., is unheard of. Give the true gentleman cricket icon that Tendulkar is, a proper farewell. He would not approve of most of these."

This is so true, let the man enjoy his last game without all the hooplah how about we will never seem him again with a cricket bat.

W.I have been a complete and utter shambles, this test series is abit of a joke and only benefit has been for sachin to get a decent fair well send off...

Gayle playing 20 20 here

West Indies trail by 250 runs with 7 wickets remaining

 

[Justcrazy]

WI batsmen play too many shots for Test matches.

 

[Justcrazy]

Ashwin very likely to take few more wickets here.

87 / 5

Siddharth: "Another 74 runs for Chanderpaul to get to 11000"

 

[Justcrazy]

Ojha need to be played in shorter formats as well. he is a very good bowler.

 

[Justcrazy]

WI will be disappointed to see both games finish on third day.

 

[Justcrazy]

90 / 6

 

[standardcricket]

Will shiv or ramdin pull a rohit sharma?

 

[Justcrazy]

Whole approach of WI in Test matches is wrong, they need to find Test batters with some grit and determination.

 

[jeetu]

WI - 90/6 Chanderpaul still batting.

 

[Ims1]

can we get them for under 200 ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Sad to see WI in test matches.

 

[Justcrazy]

100 / 6

 

[chaiwala]

Harsha talks way too much. Who gives a 10 min. interview in the middle of the match? Ask her a few questions and end it dude.

 

[Saurav]

Its all sinking in

 

[Justcrazy]

Out of nowhere Ramdin launches one into stands

 

[Saurav]

very good interview of Mrs. Tendulkar

 

[Ims1]

Ramdin batting with aggression . entertainment for crowd . I like this pitch ,decent amount of bounce & spin .

 

[Ims1]

Shami on - good move .

 

[Naheem]

ramdin get his 2k runs in tests

 

[Naheem]

chanderpual need 63 runs more to get 11k runs

 

[Justcrazy]

Shami brought back in here.
