    Yeah that made no sense. In the freak chance that the bails lodge back on, the batsman's not out. This is my reference for the rule: Law 28 (The wicket is down) - Laws - Laws of Cricket - Laws & Spirit - Lord's

    According to the rules the bails need to be completely dislodged, but I seem to remember many run-outs/stumpings given when the bail is even partially dislodged. Keeping that in mind I thought that run-out should have been given.

    India vs Pak: India are the new ('80s and '90s) Pakistan

    Pak had the better team till the early 2000s. We just managed to beat them at World Cups somehow. Weird and wonderful co-incidence I think. That '96 WC game got me following cricket. Remember Pakistan beating us everywhere else, Sahara Cup etc. But we won again in the '99 WC.

    This is so hapless from India it would be hilarious if you're not a supporter. Pwned by the quicks and the bowlers getting mauled.

    Plus, the opening pinch hitter role in T20 makes less sense IMO. Maybe one of the openers might try to bat long but the other guy is likely going to play about as aggressively as a pinch hitter anyway. You'd rather have your best batsmen up front.

    HAVE to get Watson early, and try to choke the rest. Ojha needs to play the key role here.

    Don't like Pathan opening. He's okay with the bat but our specialist bats should be opening. Oh well, hope he makes me look silly.

    Rohit to open? No Sehwag.

    Speaking of which, is there anything in the laws preventing fielders from crossing the ropes in anticipation of a ball headed for 6 that could be parried back to the field?

    Was a good game! Kinda silly for England getting so close with 6 wickets left, but Morgan was lucky. Terrific fielding from WI!

    Can't stand Symonds and Botham, Bradman seems like he wouldn't be far behind in the ****meter. Roy probably the worst however.

    Yeah fans are happy for Yuvi but Dhoni getting plenty of stick for the loss.

    Haha. Losing by 1 run with 6 wickets left. Owned.

    This was a poorly managed chase but it's ridiculous saying Dhoni has been lucky to be winning run chases with his batting thus far.

    It's the oxygen deficiency. Can't blame Gunther.

    Kallis the worst of those 3 IMO. His selfishness might be exagerrated by fans but it's there IMO and it's irksome.

    Andre Nel seems to be forgotten too. Shame.

    Why so much Watson hate? I only know about the altercations with Gayle and Gambhir.
