mazolaman Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 What a cracker! Just a note to anyone who likes their cricket. India V England. If you can catch the highlights some how,have look. Personally I'm not the biggest fan of the shorter forms of cricket,but this was a corker. 50 over cricket can sometimes be this good! Worth it just to hear the cacophonous atmosphere from the Indians!
Kangaroo495 Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 The Poms I thought were a bit lucky in some respects. Bell got a lucky lbw call. Strauss it seemed was caught behind at one point, but the Indians didn't appeal.. It was like the crowd was too loud to be able to hear the nick of the ball on the bat. But those last few overs were real quality. Even my heart was in my mouth. Was hoping the English would win the match.
KurtE Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I'm a much bigger fan of test but I watched some of India's innings and taking into account England in one-day I stopped watching thinking it was over. Props to England Tendulkar is just beyond amazing isn't he?
mazolaman Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 Yep,Tandulkar is still agreat batsman,even at this late stage in is career. If India were a bit sharper in the field,it would have been theirs. Kangaroo....yep.I think there were two instances where Strauss got a faint edge,but no-one heard it due to the noise of the crowd! The Bell LBW was not given,as he was 2.5m from the crease.....which is a rule I'd never seen before(and quite a daft rule,as he was plumb) Shazad must have had some guts to come in with a few balls to go,and hit his first ball for 6!
