[macho punjabi]

[Arcturus]

wont be much of a upset if Windies win since the very format of T20 makes it a dicey affair

I heard they are telecasting in Youtube. Can anybody post the link here.

[Pakhtoon_Rules]

[DeadlyVenom]

Welcome to PP mate and it should be a good game of cricket. Head says India but my large heart says the Windies

 

[SameerP]

it will be interesting to see holding commentry in this series, what he says about india and and its cricket board, and not to forget bhajji dosra as well

Holding is in England commentating on SL vs ENG

 

[kashmiri_lad]

India 1/0 after 0.3 overs..
Quiet start from India..
Shikhar Dhawan feeling unconmfortable ...

 

[Afridi_Fan]

So, we have another Indian poster. Welcome on board.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Seems like there's a slight drizzle now

 

[BaaliSoda]

Poor running between the wickets by openers so far

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why have India got Dhawan in there? Don't you have the likes of Uthappa or something? lol

 

[macho punjabi]

is this a t20 match? hardly any action so far.

 

[Fireworks11]

Good outing for the youngsters here.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Come on Windies!

 

[SameerP]

So, we have another Indian poster. Welcome on board.

I feel you are disappointed

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Beauty

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Drop and run

 

[Afridi_Fan]

is this a t20 match? hardly any action so far.

This is NOT IPL, this is International game. You will get used to it.

 

[rahulrulezz]

Dhawan is not a T20 or ODI player..look his record in IPL..Lost so many matches singlehandly to Mumbai Indians and Deccan Chargers..Bizzare selection

 

[BaaliSoda]

Drizzling started

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What happened though?!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

And Sammy badshah strikes.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Dhawan gone ..
good riddance..was playing very slowly..
Kohli in now..

 

[Deewana Mastana]

haha! That's out!

Cleary takes the edge of the bat and Dhawan was hoping nobody noticed!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

LoL he was saying to that, that he was unlucky?

In International cricket if the ball hits your gloves you are out Mr Dhawan.

 

[BoomBoomCricket]

Out!

 

[KingKhanWC]

As soon I switch to the red button, an Indian is walking back with a big grin.

Should I switch back to the test match, maybe not.

13-1

 

[BaaliSoda]

Dhawan is not a T20 or ODI player..look his record in IPL..Lost so many matches singlehandly to Mumbai Indians and Deccan Chargers..Bizzare selection

In this match we have got one of the poorest opening combination for the last 5 years.

Dhawan is a hack and he proves it once again

 

[rahulrulezz]

Dhawan is a big ch###tiya... hahaha clean out and still moaning on umpire..he effing doesnt deserve to play for India... dont know who selected him for T20s

 

[Fireworks11]

Good early breakthrough.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Cheerleaders.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Cheerleaders have too many clothes on..

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rampaul gets smacked by Patel

 

[cricketindiafan]

Last vt20 on this round WI vs Zim

Zim 105 in 20 overs
WI 79/7 in 20 overs LOL

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Sh0ot by Chotha Patel.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Parthiv hits first boundary for INDIA

 

[Krishnan]

suresh raina is clearly following dhoni strategy for csk here.always keep wickets for last 8 overs by playing slow first and go hell for leather at last.while it may fail in some games,i wholeheartedly support this should be the strategy for india from now in t20 matches and t20 world cups.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sammy knew it from the moment he let it go

 

[macho punjabi]

dhawan pretended like he didnt hit it.. lol. ipl effect.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Parthiv Patel has grown since I last saw him play. Has he learnt how to keep wickets now?

Rampaul back of a length.

 

[cricketindiafan]

WI cheerleaders better than any IPL cheerleaders

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Why there is no Pollard even though The Tamasha League is over?

 

[Sir_Afridi]

Short ball woes continue for Indian youngsters.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

India surely shouldve got a better player than Dhawan in the side! Rohit Sharma playing?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

WI cheerleaders better than any IPL cheerleaders

Sensible post.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Good shot but single only..
They are showing Chris Gayle now..

 

[KingKhanWC]

Chris Gayle is some s&m costume. )

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Was that Gayle?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Gayle and Jerome Taylor

 

[BaaliSoda]

If Raina does not wants to have yet another forgettable captaincy at international level, then he should first get rid off hacks like Dhawan, Parthiv Butter Glove Patel and even the overrated Bhajji from the playing eleven.

 

[cricketindiafan]

Gayle and Taylor sitting in stands, WICB

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Only 19 of the first 4 overs..

 

[DeadlyVenom]

wasn't aware this was on the red button.

 

[W63L35]

Gayle and Taylor sitting in stands, WICB

..and Gayle is appropriately dressed for the occasion!

 

[Krishnan]

India surely shouldve got a better player than Dhawan in the side! Rohit Sharma playing?

Poor shikar dhawan has played one odi international,and this is first t20 and u call for him to be out.to be honest we have zero patience be it india or pak fans.gambhir was exactly like dhawan when he came in,lot of failures.i am not telling dhawan can become world class,but these guys hardly get games man.

 

[SameerP]

WI cheerleaders better than any IPL cheerleaders

Preity Zinta should be a cheerleader

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Kohli is a quality player but :umarakmal is better.

Now let the discussion begin.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Kohli is one heck of a find for India.

in yellow today.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Good shot but ZERO placement..
Still no run..

 

[Afridi_Fan]

King Viv.

 

[cricketindiafan]

It's a shame they are having this match at 10 am in the morning local time. Evening time would have seen amazing atmosphere.

 

[SameerP]

Kohli is a quality player but :umarakmal is better.

Now let the discussion begin.

is better than both, neither kohli or umar can score 10 runs from 50 balls
