34th Match - West Indies v India

[slippy888]

I dont know what happen To Rahul batting he use to be more fluent now he turn into a pujara type player

Our middle-order mainstays in the 2009-11 period, which is when our batting lineup was probably at its best, were Yuvraj and Raina, who averaged mid-30s or thereabouts. It's weird that we now have guys like Jadhav and Rayudu with much better stats, but they aren't considered to be anywhere near as good as those guys.

for the same reason why Andy Gantaume isn't considered better than Bradman

 

[harsh.ag]

What a tame way to get out.

i'll let you fill in the last word

 

[trundler]

Yesss no century for Kohli.

 

[slippy888]

Barely gonna get 240 now

 

[mr_mister]

Doesn't mind throwing away a start does Virat

 

[morgieb]

Tame way to get out. India still in it but it's gonna require a fair bit of work to get a good score on the board.

Arbitrary, meaningless, inflated and deceptive?

 

[Spark]

Arbitrary, meaningless, inflated and deceptive?

well i had one of those in particular in mind, but yes

 

[trundler]

Bumrash and Chahal will wreak havoc here

 

[slippy888]

Half assed shot from kholi why not pull it with power

 

[weldone]

Long tail after this pair - not looking good for India

Only good thing is that Roach and Holder's 20 overs are almost done

 

[slippy888]

I think India better off going for shots here to put pressure back on bowlers

 

[trundler]

Pandya has to fail sometime

 

[weldone]

Yesss no century for Kohli.

That sounds like a Tendulkar-fan.

 

[Spark]

a more athletic fielder and that's a genuine opportunity imo. no anticipation or aggression towards the line of the ball

280 is on if Dhoni goes berserk
