Indian Commentator: Head is able to hit that 6 because the sun is not out

 

[sherb]

That tournament started with Sunil Gavaskar scoring at a strike rate of 20 against England and finished with Clive Lloyd scoring at a strike rate of 120.

I remember Gavaskar scored 36 at some ridiculously slow rate, can't recall exactly, I will have to look it up.

I'm going to be ratshit at work tomorrow.

I have to do a presentation at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning in Japanese ffs. Sayonara campaigners.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

I don't want to take anything away from Gilchrist's innings. He completely set up that win but Head's innings was really up against it

100% both great knocks but this was better as we weren’t expected to win this

 

[Andronicus]

Howie saying something smart.

Must be drunk.

I love the fact that celebrations can only last like 24 hours (if we win of course) due to an all important 5 game T20 series.

England didn't give a s**t about the 50 over series here after they won the World T20 last year and understandably so. I couldn't bag the Aussies if they were of a similar mindset for the T20 series after this World Cup.

Hearing McCullum saying India played all the cricket

 

[Moonwatcher]

India have such a dominant batting line up they should have doctored the pitch

 

[ptrg]

Ah, it’s really easy batting now according to Sunni.. such a flog. Like Rohit and harsha, completely dropped their bundles

Just say “I love Head” in Japanese

 

[smasha]

Oh Head!

 

[SSwans2011]

Hmmm. Yes.
This is good. Am I right, Headless?

Consider me subscribed to this potential conversation ️

Context of batting for the underdog side against the undefeated home side who have beaten Aus in the same tournament and have a guy in the attack averaging under 10, as opposed to batting for arguably the greatest ODI side ever assembled adds a few points in Head's favor without taking anything from Gilchrist.

It was in the tournament opener against England.

It's not really though. It's better than losing but it's just cashing in on the work of a previous series. Plus only rained saved us from the most epic choke of all time.

as long as we're in possession of the urn, I'm happy.

IPL contracts on the line so I assume many will actually take it fairly seriously.

Grade cricketer live stream on YouTube instead of the commentators is bliss

 

[ep2018]

Havent seen Plugger in a while?

 

[freo_leo29]

What a shock we'll be the first team to hold the Test, ODI and T20 world titles if we win here.

England hold the T20 title, they won it here

 

[RandB]

A catch for the ages and a ton under pressure.

Magical Head.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

They'll never offer a public holiday on a sport that we actually might win

usually

 

[boncer34]

England won last years T20 WC

Whoops

 

[Topkent]

as long as we're in possession of the urn, I'm happy.

Anyway now's not the time but I don't agree but all good lol

Keep cranking em head
