India is losing it. wtf bowling?!!!!

 

[thetechfreak]

Ireland taking singles and building partnership.

Ireland- 86/2

21 overs done.

 

[Baker]

Too much with this fixing issue. I think it better be stopped immediately.

I think Baker shouldn't be given that rudeness here. He is right with this, "in india cricket is protected by all multi national corporates.... so tough to bring the truth....... ", and we all know how much capable a multi national corporate is to avoid media in this matter.
I ain't supporting Baker and also not rejecting him, but I think the discussion about this fixing issue should be stopped.

thats what my point.. ok let stop this... PEACE...

watch SA vs ENG thats more interesting...

the sad part here is foreign spinners are shining in indian pitches.. where our over hyped spinners struggling....

 

[thetechfreak]

Ireland 134/4

Chawla struggling.

Ehh..I missed O'Brien, he failed today, was wishing that sparkling batting from him. Btw- From where did this Alex Cusak learn that type of spoon shot? , he played twice for boundary against Yuvi now.

 

[Baker]

SA need 9 runs from 3 overs with 2 wickets left......

ENG won.................

 

[ithehappy]

Mr. Lottery is out.

 

[Baker]

Team india is not bleeding blue...... they are sh$ting blue....

 

[Dangerous Dave]

yusuf pathan rocked! awsome sixes

 

[gagan007]

Indian team plays according to the opposite team and runs scored. They always make the match interesting till the end, which is scary sometimes.
Anyways a win is a win.

by the way, yesterday one Irish player was given out by the umpire even though ball was more than 2.5 mtrs away from the stumps, while in match against England Bell survived the same situation because of same reason. I think BCCI's arm-twisting worked here which came after Dhoni criticized the decision (and in turn was criticized by an ICC official)

 

[thetechfreak]

Yusuf Pathan is just awesome!!!

 

[gopi_vbboy]

Seriosly india need to improve...i see uncertainity of world cup win for india mostly cos of bad bowling

 

[ithehappy]

Yusuf Pathan is just awesome!!!

Don't say it yet, wait for the match against RSA, he'll be tested there

 

[thetechfreak]

Don't say it yet, wait for the match
against RSA, he'll be tested there

damn!

Seeing Indias recent performance and the table of group b, I am more than a little scared if we can pull it off against RSA.

 

[The Conqueror]

I think even if India lose a match or two it might be good. For eg, Suppose if England can beat Australia then ->
And If the Semi final schedule is like this:
Group A (1st) vs Group B(1st)
So if Eng tops the rankings of Group B and Aus tops A
so perhaps Aus can get eliminated.

I might be wrong about the semi and quarter final schedule and fixture but this is the probability that the rankings within a Group are Very Important.

Nevertheless, a good team can win in any situation.

 

[gagan007]

@The Conqueror: whoa man, even I am counting on these calculations. Call me overoptimistic but I am seriously hoping that somehow Australia, Pakistan and South Africa are eliminated so that India gets to face England in the final

 

[skeletor]

well, if Sachin wasn't playing his last WC, I'd have loved to see Ireland and Netherlands winning the WC.

Ireland deserve the test status now.

 

[thetechfreak]

India gets to
face England in the final

why? England are NOT weak. I just hope India dont have to face Australlia in any of elimimator games..

India - Pakistan game would be great. It will send TV ratings off the charts.
Pakistan are in a RAMPAGE and India have to play their best to stop them.

 

[azzu]

Wanted To see twist in the Pak vs nz match at end..
while razzak and gul were batting..
but alas Ross make sure'd that they dont go too far away

 

[thetechfreak]

Ross Taylor just exploded today. NZ were 100 in 25 over but due to his fireworks ended at 302


India vs Ned tommorow. Men in Blue should win easy.

Their real match against RSA.
