MCC v Rest of the World | July 5, 2014 | Lord's

[Mr Consistent]

I think easy win for MCC

 

[MarkCooper]

There has been some shocking bowling today. Even from current players.

 

[saiyan0312]

that deserved a hit. ajmal has looked to be on another planet here so far amongst all the bowlers. Wanted to see warne too. :*

 

[Munna]

Afridi feeding pies to Finch at the moment

 

[Mr Consistent]

another 4 by Finch

 

[Mr Consistent]

finch moves to 91 9 away from 100

 

[Bilal7]

Finch looks like a good player against spin. Hope Waqar, Misbah and Ajmal are taking notes

 

[saiyan0312]

OHH what a shot that is.

 

[Silly Point]

Yuvraj handed the momentum to them on a platter in the last over. Overrated pie chucker.

 

[saiyan0312]

Lara looking confident here.

 

[Munna]

Pulled by Lara for another boundary. Keep carrying on master!

 

[saiyan0312]

Slowly becoming more into it.

 

[Indiafan]

Yuvraj handed the momentum to them on a platter in the last over. Overrated pie chucker.

Have you been even watching the match? MCC has been doing it easy from ball 1 and Afridi's first over was nothing great. What momentum?

 

[lameduck]

I hope Finch retire out once he gets past his 100

 

[saiyan0312]

Very easily played there lara. single.

 

[Munna]

Have you been even watching the match? MCC has been doing it easy from ball 1 and Afridi's first over was nothing great. What momentum?

Warne's loss made this even more easier for ROW.

 

[saiyan0312]

Why cant anybody esle emulate his technique. Just easily change the face of the bat for a single. Makes it look soo easy but u bet its the hardest thing to do.

 

[Munna]

Let Pollock bowl please!

 

[shaz619]

Shaun Pollock on for warne go on mate!

How quick was Brett bowling today? Warne injury apparently serious

 

[saiyan0312]

for finch there. what will he do now.

 

[saiyan0312]

what a shot. What a shot. Its mouth watering.

 

[shaz619]

Trademark cover drive from lara!!

 

[Munna]

That's the Lara that will remain vivid in my mind forever! That fluent drive, oh what are we missing in cricket these days!

 

[shaz619]

ah crap! he's out

 

[saiyan0312]

Oh NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i WANTED MORE... Soo much more

 

[saiyan0312]

That's the Lara that will remain vivid in my mind forever! That fluent drive, oh what are we missing in cricket these days!

Bunch a hacks who get out on flat tracks. This generation is worlds apart from the previous one.

 

[Munna]

Farewell Lara Hope to see you again soon!

 

[Electron]

Lara out.. but I am glad I saw that drive.

 

[saiyan0312]

One last player to watch. The legendary dravid. I live watching him. I know he is boring for some but for me that defense was classic.

 

[shaz619]

Sachin and Lara walking back into the paviliion at Lords one last time gave me goose bumps, there will never be another with the flair and style of lara was a joy to watch

 

[MarkCooper]

Brigadier Blocker Colinwood is on a hattrick!

 

[Electron]

After all that serious pre-match practice, Dravid gets a golden duck

 

[Indiafan]

Now Dravid

 

[saiyan0312]

Lara out.. but I am glad I saw that drive.

That. Those two shots gave me the flashbacks. We need more of these matches.

WHAT THE HELL. The WALL Castled. This is not happening.

 

[shaz619]

Dravid gone for naught!!! Colly on a hatrrick

 

[Indiafan]

Dravid out first ball, damn

 

[shaz619]

Afridi giving colly an earful like why you do that bro!!

 

[saiyan0312]

Soo all of those legends gone. I wanted to see dravids defense. :* :* :*

 

[shaz619]

Cruel to see one of the best to leave lords that way

 

[Electron]

Dravid smiles as he walks back. Had that embarrassed look about him.

 

[saiyan0312]

chanders in. Collingwood with his skidding deliveries. that was a sight too. I never understood how he got wickets but he got them.

 

[Munna]

Bunch a hacks who get out on flat tracks. This generation is worlds apart from the previous one.

No wonder cricket is not the same without such greats and gentlemen of the game. It has lost a great deal of value and caliber in the last 5-8 years!

 

[shaz619]

what a field setting for that hattrick ) Colly ul joel garner on faaayaa

 

[MarkCooper]

Chanderpaul. Protect your average! play for a NOT OUT and let finch do all the work

 

[saiyan0312]

Dravid smiles as he walks back. Had that embarrassed look about him.

Shouldnt be embarrassed. I am his fan and think not even an ounce less of him for getting out for naught here. to me he is still the wall that came after the opening of sehwag and ganguly and sachin to create terror. The man i knew would never get out. Believe it or not i again had that feeling seeing him there.

The majestic defense that will not fall early. The feeling that said get ready for a long show bcz that he aint leaving soon.

I hear you bro. The way it was played before was soo different then its played now.

Thats true. These guys have done so much in the past, all this is irrelevant.

Hahaha... seriously.

 

[test_fan]

Dravid took a very good catch. That's good enough.

 

[saiyan0312]

by finch against murali.

 

[Munna]

Look at those Chander's stats. He's just a notch below with the likes of SRTs, Laras and Dravids

 

[saiyan0312]

Look at those Chander's stats. He's just a notch below with the likes of SRTs, Laras and Dravids

After him west indies batting will end completely.

 

[Silly Point]

If they can have DRAWvid and Chanders, why not have Misbah too? Tuk tuk galore.

 

[Silly Point]

I remember watching a MCC vs ROW match in the late 90s where Sachin and Chanders each scored a hundred. 15 years later they're still featuring in this match but today they're on the same team.

 

[Munna]

I wonder if Ponting was invited for this game or not

 

[saiyan0312]

Powerplay on.

 

[saiyan0312]

nearly bowled from the legs.

 

[saiyan0312]

Gilly is still a quick keeper. Although he has not been thoroughly tested but he kept very well.

 

[saiyan0312]

yorkers that slow dont hurt unless you are swinging it.

 

[saiyan0312]

easily picked.

 

[saiyan0312]

swept and gone. Murali has not looked threatening,

 

[Munna]

Wow. Andrew Strauss apologizing live on air for his derogatory remarks against KP

 

[saiyan0312]

chanderpaul in white clothes is thinking its a test match and just as i write this he smashes it for

over the bowlers head.

 

[saiyan0312]

smashed that one with ease.

 

[saiyan0312]

This guy is going to be smashing us too if we are not careful .

 

[saiyan0312]

what a shot by finch. Destroying murali there.

 

[saiyan0312]

chanders better kick start or this may turn out to be a match losing innings.

 

[saiyan0312]

pollock is there for warne as substitute. Might as well try a few overs.

 

[Munna]

Pollock must be wishing for his sake for Finch to end this ASAP.

 

[saiyan0312]

Tino has more ridiculous appeals then juni.

 

[saiyan0312]

man he is making ut look easy.

 

[saiyan0312]

soo easy. Tino is horrible.

 

[saiyan0312]

53 needed from 54 balls. Man i wish someone would take another double wicket. I want to watch vettori bat.,

 

[saiyan0312]

Awesome . Kevin to bowl. this will be good.

 

[saiyan0312]

Shot and 151 for finch. Great innings. MOM will be finch.

 

[saiyan0312]

weird but it went the distance.

 

[Munna]

Finch should go for a 200

 

[saiyan0312]

Finch should go for a 200

The way chanders is tuk tuking he might just reach it.

 

[saiyan0312]

on the back foot.
