series between two poor teams
by Niharika Sharma on Nov 25, 2010 08:46 PM  | Hide replies

this is series between two of the poorest cricket nations in terms of skills n talents but richest in terms of history n heritage. if u dont have anything else to watch, watch this tamassa where surely many aussies will become bradman n shane warney against a team which fails to stand against them n think that aussies r the only best team.

Are u crazy? They are in the top five, England is a pretty good team and Australia is also despite downhill slide.

They both whipped failed statePornistan handsomely and mind it Pornistan is the weakest team in the world today. With hardly any batsmen of substabce and bowlers of dubious quality, it is more of a farce that only is good in spot and match fixing. After committing the act, its players pretend that they are not involved and are a victim of conspiracy theories. Even Bangladesh is better than this sinking failed state Pornistan.

Niharika Sharma:

:) Since you have described the Aussies as being the poorest of teams, what was the big hoo-haa a month back when we defeated them at our own home? ? ? :)

That too after being on the verge of losing the Mohali test??

Kindly explain..

I feel England are in good enough form to stage a comeback. After all it is just a first day of a long tour.

Star Cricket is taking Channel nine feed so we can listen to Bill Lawry and Benaud , but they come less nowadays ,more of Healy , Slater,Taylor these days.
Sky coverage I got to know through streaming websites
Thank God Sky Feed is not here in India.
I too want more of Lawry ,esp on the Hattrick it would have been Worth gold

Star Cricket will show Highlights at 12 midnight only
They keep showing old WC matches repeatedly during the day and Primetime as well,bad for people on work and those like me who do not like to watch for 7 hours, they should do something about this

Aussies were part of 3 WC victories from 1999-2003-2007. What about Indian jokers...only record chasers. High on emotions low on substance.

Australia-England series always delight to watch, as they believe in level playing. Batters vs bowlers. Hard cricket. Our Indian team is full of zalim toond wale several players who are no better than truckdrivers or washerman. But Indian team jugni or nagin dance on SA green pitches is what I am looking.

hahaha, Excuses. What about second NZ innings? Who forced them to win the toss and bat?
NZ survived on dead pitches but when they played on a good test pitch they couldn't face Indians and proved why they are number 8 in the rankings.

Yeah. If New Zealand had bowled first, you would have said, BCCI talked to NCB, so that New Zealand fielded first, and had to bat 4th Innings in a dust-bowl Indian wicket.

It was a definitely a risk. If NZ survived the 1st hours (also, Indians leading paceman Zaheer was injured) they would had got the upper hand.

Vettori gambled, but his batsmen let him down.

Yeah, PorkiPig BRUNO, they spoke and that was in your wild brain. It is only your disgraced nation's PCB that does that speaking and then fixing matches. And then pretending to be innocent and coy.

Dust bowl pitches are found in only your disgraced nation, uPorki, flat, uneven and unfit to play even practise matches.

If NZ got bowled out in 193 and 175 in a dead pitch. I wonder how much they had scored if it was a green top.

New Zealand Tour of India, 2009
2nd Test Napier

New Zealand 619
India (1st Innings) 305

NZ got a 1st Innings lead of 314 and made India follow on

India 2nd Innings 476/4

Result: Match Drawn

What prevented Kiwis from doing that ?

India saved the Napier match by playing well in 2nd Innings, and I think in the Nagpur test,during the 2nd Innings of New Zealand there was no overcast.

About batting pitch, read your previous messages you were the one who was complaining that India makes dead pitches. So if there was no overcast the pitches were perfectly good to bat on.

Sporty, this PakiPIG BRUNO is feeling dejected that his disgraced nationPornistan is roiling at the bottom of the table, only fixing matches and then trotting out excuses that 3 hours overcast conditions is responsible for India winning

Look at the audacity of this shamelessPakiPig, bawling egged ob by the pathetic shape of his disgraced nation.

I am amazed to see the England squad without EOIN MORGAN. Where is he? Is he injured? The guy was in such tremendous form ..... he could have single handedly saved the team from this ignominy!!
