Awesome, haven't heard Jeremy Coney on commentary for ages. I really rate his analysis!

Bell back in the hutch already (albeit a tad unlucky) and Strauss looking a walking wicket, not looking good already

What are thinking of our bowling attack (& I use the phrase loosely, obviously)? Even if Saj, Jimmy & Harmy get thru their allotted ten (which is far from a given for me) we have to conjour 20 overs from Yardy, Dalrymple, Colly, KP & Bell.

With the Indian batters it could be sheer murder. Lewis would be right to be jarred off at being left out.

Typical ODI start from England lose early wickets score at a slow rate and make a complete hash of the power plays.

This seems such a superb wicket to bat on with the ball coming on nicely to the bat. India has bowled very well getting good swing but England has been clueless.

This is pretty much India's best team, with Sreesanth to substitute any one of the pacers if they are out of form, or Powar if its a pace friendly wicket.

Good selection by India, just wish Sreesanth was in the squad.

Awesome start by the bowlers, not giving the English batsmen an inch.

Yardy at least trying to score runs. Strauss seems content to to give his wicket away & not doing a fantastic job of that either.

"Umm no?" What are you, 12?

WI may have India in the palm of their hands on WI territory, but this is India, and I don't think all out for 80 is going to put fear in India. WI last two matches against India were hardly convincing as well.

India or WI could get through with Australia. I'd say India are more likely to though, being hosts and all.

Yardy goes LBW if KP doesn't score considerably probably not.
