amdavadi · Post by **amdavadi** » 30 Mar 2011 17:49

Because he is nehra

negi · Post by **negi** » 30 Mar 2011 17:49

Seriously Dhoni is such a dhakkan for not sending in Raina before himself; I mean seriously how many runs has McHD made this in this tournament ?

260 is defensible on this pitch..if our bowlers do their task.

krisna · Post by **krisna** » 30 Mar 2011 17:50

260/9 TI completed 50 overs at least.
no all out or wasted 50 overs.
India will lose onlee

We did okay. There is hope. Do not lose heart. 280 runs was a sure win. We played 50 overs. So we are going to win.

Patni · Post by **Patni** » 30 Mar 2011 17:51

260 to defend. On the pitch with odd balls keeping low and definitely not a flat track, TI has fighting chance.

I like this Raina guy. Compact and no non-sense.
Says 260 is good on the track. When talked about Aswin. He replies: I am there. (as is Sachin).

Pakis will have to earn the win. As long as the TI bowlers keep it between the wickets it is going to be good.

Let us not discount the pitch. There was already a mention of how two-paced the pitch is.

amdavadi · Post by **amdavadi** » 30 Mar 2011 17:57

He will do that in the Finals. Pukka. Guarantee.

Marten: I hope you are proven wrong.

If the crowd bays for paki blood and we sledge smartly, pukes may lose their head.

amdavadi · Post by **amdavadi** » 30 Mar 2011 17:59

calm down boys, paki will loose 2 wknd under 30

Zaheer, instead of taking a single, went for the big shots himself.

Expect a lot of slow balls from the fast bowlers today!

A Nandy · Post by **A Nandy** » 30 Mar 2011 18:01

yes we have to attack and get those 2 openers

Neela · Post by **Neela** » 30 Mar 2011 18:02

Cricinfo remark:

I'm not sure about Ankit's maths here: "260 is not a bad score actually. Add 10 to it because of the pressure of a World Cup semi-final. Add another 15 to it because India's fielding will save that many. And add another 15 to it because of the pressure of both country's Prime Minister's watching. So it all adds up to a total of 300! Well done, India."

True that!

rvishwak · Post by **rvishwak** » 30 Mar 2011 18:03

it would be difficult to get runs off the old ball, squeeze them in between 20th and 33rd over

Lilo · Post by **Lilo** » 30 Mar 2011 18:03

260 not enough , toothless indian bowling ,headless kapitan -- all together

Lalmohan · Post by **Lalmohan** » 30 Mar 2011 18:03

if nehra gets three wickets, he can have one of the lalchix
if he gets five
he can have both of them
after that he gets a white ghagra chick per wicket

Aggy thinks Gawd was plumb out LBW....

amdavadi · Post by **amdavadi** » 30 Mar 2011 18:04

pakis wont last 40 overs.....they will not get to 200

rvishwak · Post by **rvishwak** » 30 Mar 2011 18:05

what about kohli getting 9 runs of 21 balls. kohli and dhoni just wasted the balls.MSD house in Ranchi is named as Shaurya, time to show it off.

Here's my chweet list of excuses/rationalizations for tomorrow morning....

1. The grapes are sour anyway.
2. Its just a game yaar...
3. the sun will rise tomorrow, life will move on...
4. luck factor is there no yaar....

finally from twitter@greatbong

Everyone relax. IPL is from next week. I can assure you 1) India will win it and 2) Dhoni will be in great batting form.

Sumeet · Post by **Sumeet** » 30 Mar 2011 18:08

I mean Pakis have struggled chasing anything over and around 200 in this WC. It will be bad bowling and fielding that can cost us match.

Pathan would have been a better choice for this game instead of Kohli. At least he wouldn't waste balls.
MSD should have let Raina go ahead of him. The man is just not ready to admit his batting form is poor.
