Cricket Discussion - Part 1

[Greasyrhys]

Need a wicket to break this stand before these two could get out of control

 

[RustyCage]

Dhoni is the one we need

 

[RustyCage]

He likes chasing the wide ones

 

[RustyCage]

Great review. Rahane gone

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

We will destroy NZ on Sunday.

 

[LukeSA]

Ooh... one less coat of lacquer and that would have missed.

 

[Rising Power]

You bloody beauty! What a run out!

India being cautious. Plan is to obviously die wondering.

You bloody beauty! What a run out!

I yelled out to my wife to come and watch the replay but annoyingly they only showed the slow-mo from close in then went to an ad. Then when she left the room they finally showed the wide shot in real time, showing how ridiculously, impossibly good that throw-in was.

 

[LukeSA]

Farking hell Watson... don't need that this late in the innings.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Need to get Dhoni out to seal it...

The pasty kid who looks like he wants to cry all the time goes alright yeah?

Gotta get Dhoni out he was AWLAYS going to be the key in the chase. The entertaining bastard that he is.

Dhoni showing himself capable of rounding out a game but not very good at counting in this game. Waiting until the required run rate is over 14 before you unleash your assault is unlikely to win you many games against the top 4 nations.

And an assault at 1 a ball is meh ... fork it he's out anyway.

 

[LukeSA]

Farking beauty of a throw... Dhoni now gone

 

[Greasyrhys]

Watch out Blackcaps...

 

[Powerstufff]

Wonderful bowling from India from about over 35 in our innings. I thought we were going to be lucky to get 300.
Dreadful batting from ... hey for Heaven's sake stop losing wickets as I type! 2 in this little post!!

 

[philreich]

Outstanding stuff from our bowlers: bring on the Kiwis!!!!

 

[Powerstufff]

I missed the opportunity to work for this game. Happy about the decision, at least until I reflect on what I brought home this week.

He had just hit 2 sixes in a row at the time. Don't know what he was thinking about taking a single straight after that.

 

[Dentshop]

Meh game in the end, especially compared to the game on Tuesday.

Glad though that the Aussies will be still hungry, the Kiwis have already played their final.

 

[Seanybruz]

Ha ha ha
How's that campaigner crying...

 

[ozph1870]

2-80 odd they were at that stage... its like sheding a tear 2 goals down at qtr time...

 

[ozph1870]

when my baby, when my baby smiles at me i go to mumbai

 

[Seanybruz]

I don't think the emotion shown from their supporters was over their teams position as much as it was about Kohli getting out for sfa yet again, for some reason they care as much about 1-2 idolised players performing as the whole team winning.

I don't understand the way they build up their cricket stars as demigods, Virat is a very good player but vastly overrated when they try to compare him to Sachin who is a once in a generation player.
