New Zealand v India | T20 | Wellington | 27/2/09

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

Hope Newzealand win this game and the series.

 

[IronMan2009]

yes they will win definitely. They are stronger side.

 

[Momo]

yes they will win definitely. They are stronger side.

They may be the stronger side, but they are definitely not rock-stars.

 

[iafzal]

will the rockstars get rocked today?

 

[khanz141]

any links to the game???

 

[iafzal]

dang Sehwag is currently rocking the Kiwis. 5 4s already and it is only the 3rd over

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

shewag gone.. hooo

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

flat track bullies getting owned..

 

[IronMan2009]

Sehwag was entertaining as long as he lasted.

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

Sehwag was entertaining as long as he lasted.

we all know he does not last long..

 

[IronMan2009]

Again they keep going for too many shots and lose wickets. Rank long hop should have been deposited into the stands.

 

[IronMan2009]

we all know he does not last long..

Yea.. sometimes he gets out easily at 309

 

[Momo]

Yea.. sometimes he gets out easily at 309

Yes but those pitches epitomize travesty.

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

Yea.. sometimes he gets out easily at 309

only if the wicket is flat.

 

[IronMan2009]

Yes but those pitches epitomize travesty.

Yes.. ofcourse that was the flattest on the planet Anyway we managed to extract a result out of it

 

[IronMan2009]

only if the wicket is flat.

He made 2 centuries in NZ last time in one dayers. Next high score from both teams was only 60 or something. So?

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

budha gone.. it shows how good he is really..

 

[jusarrived]

only if the wicket is flat.

the case with every pak batsmen .

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

nobody is jumping up down shouting we are the best batting lineup, rockstars, etc.,

 

[Eagle Eyes]

the case with every pak batsmen .

A ridiculous judgment can be made for every indian batsmen.

 

[jusarrived]

nobody is jumping up down shouting we are the best batting lineup, rockstars, etc.,

I wouldn't be jumping p and down if i wer the fan of a mediocre side like Pakistan , like you !

 

[Momo]

Yes.. ofcourse that was the flattest on the planet Anyway we managed to extract a result out of it

So did 'we'.

 

[Khabri420]

nobody is jumping up down shouting we are the best batting lineup, rockstars, etc.,

and super models....

 

[Eagle Eyes]

I wouldn't be jumping p and down if i wer the fan of a mediocre side like Pakistan , like you !

The same mediocre side that beats show off Rockstars every now and then? How many times has India beaten a mediocre Pakistani side.. compare to the one at full strength??

 

[IronMan2009]

So did 'we'.

Not innings defeat.. India lost 5 wickets Pakistan lost 20 wickets . oh i forgot with balaji and pathan.

 

[jusarrived]

good for you , if you happy with your team ..& full strength ? )


anyway back cricket , 170+ will be a good score here !

 

[Random Aussie]

3/62 after 9.4 overs

 

[IronMan2009]

Tired of windups.. Ya.. you are good we are bad.. India is struggling to work jessie again. These two choked us last time. Vettori and Ryder.

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

135 all out..

 

[Momo]

oh i forgot with balaji and pathan.

What's wrong with Pathan now for crying out loud?

Wasn't he the next Wasim Akram?

 

[IronMan2009]

Dhoni has really lost his ability to hit the ball powerfully like he used to do. Too many "responsible" innings has changed him.

 

[Momo]

That's a familiar story, isn't it? That's what too much obsession with stats and averages does to you.

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

I don't think so. He might be playing carefully for few overs before the onslaught...

 

[IronMan2009]

That's a familiar story, isn't it? That's what too much obsession with stats and averages does to you.

He won so many matches finishing especially against Pakistan, Srilanka.

 

[Khabri420]

What's wrong with Pathan now for crying out loud?

Wasn't he the next Wasim Akram?

Isn't that Zaheer 'Six-Pack' Khan now?

 

[IronMan2009]

Isn't that Zaheer 'Six-Pack' Khan now?

Na Zaheer is better than Akram. He doesn't want to be compared with a "traitor"

 

[Momo]

Isn't that Zaheer 'Six-Pack' Khan now?

True. They keep on changing. Zaheer seems to be the flavour of the month these days.

 

[jusarrived]

That's a familiar story, isn't it? That's what too much obsession with stats and averages does to you.

Dhoni is the last person to worry about stats ...his strike rate is still around ~90 & wins more matches than any other batsmen for us ...we need some one who plays the anchors role in the middle !

 

[Eagle Eyes]

Wasim Akram the legend? hahah )

Pity they didn't schedule the Tests first

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

Dhoni is one of the very overrated batsmen in the world.

 

[Khabri420]

Yuvi Padukone gone!

 

[jusarrived]

yuvi gone , good fifty !

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

yuvraj ran out of luck

 

[Khabri420]

nakli pathan into bat

 

[jusarrived]

Pity they didn't schedule the Tests first

I doubt Ryders bowling would bother us in tests , but yeah fortunate that we are not playing tests firsts ...though the likes of Dravid , vvs etc would be without any practice !

 

[iafzal]

they seem to be going for about 150

 

[Shaan]

Dhoni looks like he is not fit for this version of the game !!

 

[jan_Jamshed]

yousuf pathan gone.. for duck..

 

[Khabri420]

and nakli pathan gone for a duck...

 

[Shaan]

Pathan gone without opening his account !!

 

[iafzal]

Zeeeero quack quack

 

[jusarrived]

tough one for the umpire there !

 

[Random Aussie]

Excellent

 

[IronMan2009]

Dont mind losing wickets to obriens butlors.. again to Vettori.. over-rated left armer..

 

[Random Aussie]

Same old problem for India, one Pathan too many. Both in the same team are liability.

 

[Random Aussie]

Vettori>>>>>>>>any of your spinners

He is a gun, would kill it in a strong team. Imagine South Africa had him.

 

[Momo]

True, especially when you consider that at least one is faking it.

 

[iafzal]

Jedeja is showing he is cut for test match too

 

[Khabri420]

Jadeja lacking some power....

 

[jusarrived]

Dont mind losing wickets to obriens butlors.. again to Vettori.. over-rated left armer..

actually hes underrated for this format & ODI's imo..tests , hes just alright !

 

[Momo]

Jedeja is showing he is cut for test match too

Do we have The Wall Mark II?

 

[IronMan2009]

Vettori>>>>>>>>any of your spinners

He is a gun, would kill it in a strong team. Imagine South Africa had him.

32 wickets 3 tests ahem .. Probably he is better than any of Australian spinner. what am i talking nathan mcmillian is better than any of your spinners.

 

[Khabri420]

Jadeja should just get out

 

[Shaan]

these two forgot that they are playing T20, not test !!

 

[Momo]

Dont mind losing wickets to obriens butlors.. again to Vettori.. over-rated left armer..

actually hes underrated for this format & ODI's imo..tests , hes just alright !

Very coherent discussion taking place here.

Good commentary, Akh Momo )

A meaningless comment is required for that?

Chucker, some friendly home umpires and pitches. What has he done since except get Ponting out? Even Indian fans don't rate him unless they are on here and getting defensive. He is talented bowler who is scared to pitch it up and bowls flat and fast instead.

Vettori is comfortably better than Harbajan Singh, I got no problems saying that.

Only Mendis & Murali ahead of Vettori.

No kidding Zimbabwe would have better spinners than Australia.

 

[Eagle Eyes]

The guy cant rate for cricket's sake!! )

 

[Random Aussie]

5/109 after 16 Dhoni the key as usual. They will need to go mad to get a decent score though.

Will the WORLD CHAMPIONS OF 2020 go down to New Zealand this series?

 

[Momo]

Don't bother.

You know they want to

They might. But they will still be the rockstars, make no mistake.

we never have difference of opinion here ?

 

[iafzal]

6 down

 

[Khabri420]

nakli pathan part 2 comes to bat...

 

[iafzal]

Pathan #2 in

 

[jusarrived]

13 of that last over ..3 overs to go ...can we get to 160 ?

160 is defendable on this pitch !

 

[Momo]

we never have difference of opinion here ?

By all means we have. Please don't get me wrong. But you have obviously missed the humour.

Just go through it once again and enjoy the abrupt jump from one extreme to the other. In an objective sort of way. And I assure you, you will thank me for it.
