Sorry B. Your boys are taking a hell of a beating.
It certainly was, i was shitting my pants during the first 20 overs.:scared:

After tendulkar's 100 i think we fucked up.....i think SA did good to restrict us in the last overs taking all those wickers...

Byrone,this is your match to lose man :D
Fucked up? That was a choking session of EPIC proportions in both innings.

Wow, that PP killed Indias batting. What happened? I am at work, hopefully I'll watch SA's innings.
Dale Steyn happened.:agree:

Just like netherlands match,got over confident and started swinging....SA a too good a side not to take advantage and they did...

What an awesome start and we fucked up
It was unbelievable, we were stupid not to take the review option when Sehwag was on 12. It would have been a totally different game but India really screwed up because India's score should have ended on 400 run +, easily.

I can't believe they just played Justin Bieber :rofl:
Me too, i was like.:wth:

Guess India will slowly take up the chokers tag :seven: And oh, Dhoni's decision to bowl Nehra when Peterson was on strike was gold :p
Nah, Dhoni is the problem here. I've said it before & i'll say it again, he's not ready for the pressure of being national team captain. You're spot on about bringing Nehra on, everybody was ecstatic when Singh was overlooked.:D

That was a good game. I don't like Harbhajjans attitude though. Kohli is one hell of a fielder.
He was behaving like a cunt.

Sachin reached 80 from 63 balls and then took his foot off the accelerator to score another 20 from 29 to score his hundred. Thats when India lost momentum. I might get a lot of slack here, but I was more impressed when Pollard tried to score a six and got out trying to up the run rate instead of scoring his maiden century yesterday.

Batting first is a mistake in these pitches....dhoni knows batting is the strong area of the team

We should try and chase for the rest of the cup
Generally but yesterday's pitch was prime for batting first. If SA won the toss, i'm pretty sure they would have batted first.

Comfortable victory for your boys T, what are your expectations with the match with Australia? With the team qualifying it's a great way to step up the performances & get ready for the knockout stages.

We need to tweak the top order a bit as Shehzad is not looking comfortable up there at all. Also, Akmal needs to get his shit in order, he cost us the game v New Zealand I don't care what anyone says. There's not a lot of time but if we get these issues sorted we'll have a good chance against Australia. If we win this game we'll top the group if I'm not overlooking anything.

Well the match with Australia is a great opportunity to try someone else in his place but you're spot on about Akmal. He was woeful against New Zealand because those were school boy errors he made & for a wicket keeper, it's unforgivable. New Zealand has a better net run rate then your boys so it all depends on how many runs can be saved & pushed for, so Akmal can' afford to be in hibernation mode against Australia.

Anyway Group B has some mouth watering matches coming up. England v West Indies, if England lose, they're out.:weee: Also India v West Indies on Sunday will be another scorcher because if WI lose to England they'll need to beat India to progress & hope Bangladesh don't beat SA, haha.

there u go

43.3


Swann to Roach, OUT, gone! And another!


KAJ Roach c Tremlett b Swann 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

43.2


Swann to Roach, no run, pushes into the off side

Slip and short leg in

It's down to the bowlers now...here's Kemar Roach

43.1


Swann to Sarwan, OUT, gone! Would you believe it. Swann has struck. Extra bounce, Sarwan went to turn it on the leg side and gets an inside onto the thigh pad which loops gently to Ian Bell at short leg. You couldn't write these scripts


RR Sarwan c Bell b Swann 31 (68b 3x4 0x6) SR: 45.58
