Hmm, I think I'd rather have Wright bowl his 4 then Dimi, bit of extra bounce.....

Big fear is us taking a wicket too early and bringing Yuvraj into bat!

Ur fears have come true..

Dimi gets a wicket..but it gives Yuvraj time to get his eye in before he tees off

Squeaky bum time here... come on England.

Agreed about Wright. As a part-timer, he's not likely to find his radar straight away, and he should have been left on to keep his rhythm, especially against these two.

EDIT
So Dimi takes a wicket straight away. My point about Wright remains though.

 

[grecian]

but I could be wrong, vital time now.

Get Yuvi early and we must be favourites

 

[BoyBrumby]

Gambhir goes on the sweep. Dimi does the trick, but him against Yuvi could get a bit brutal.

 

[Lostman]

I think the choke is on

 

[ret]

yes Gambhir goes!!

 

[grecian]

Oh dear

 

[BoyBrumby]

Yup, called it. Maximum first up. Get Dimi off now!!

 

[Dissector]

Pathetic performance from India with the whole top order struggling with the short ball. And what's Jadeja doing wasting balls. Just 19 off 25 so far.

 

[Lostman]

bring on the spinner for yuvraj

 

[four_or_six]

We really need to keep our heads here. If we can just string a few more overs together that go for less than 10.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Swanny looks good for 4 overs, bowl him through and try Wright against Yuvi. Bowls fuller than Dimi.

EDIT: Broad. Interesting.

 

[four_or_six]

We only need one more over from the fifth bowler now... good to see Broad back on.

Would have been my call.

 

[grecian]

Well there's a lot of talk about poor batmanship, but the pitch clearly isn't easy to score on, with 4 sub-average scores looking likely.

Puts KP's innings into perspective.

 

[ret]

rotate the strike, Ravi

I think jadeja lost it here for india. Messed up batting building the pressure enormouusly. Big tactical blunder from dhoni here to send jadeja out there.I think the 15th over will decide the game.
