Cricket World Cup 2011 Thread

Tendulkar's century sets up a south african victory!! GO South Africa!!!!!!!!!

lol @ Dhoni - 30/9!!!!!
 
IMHO kohli should be replaced by raina.
He is much better suited to play in the death overs.
Kohli is better at No.3.
In a high scoring game he becomes a liability at the death.
 
Thanks Sharktale :)

@ggt

Good point there. Suresh raina ought to be played. Kohli just doesnt seems to be like a toughie. More like an upgraded version of Rahul Dravid in ODI at the least.

Team already has 3 openers playing, so that shd take care of the no 3 slot.

Sachin

Sehwag

Gambhir

Yuvraj

Dhoni

Raina

Harbhajan

Ashwin

Nehra

Sree

Zaheer

Munaf and Pathan are a real liability imo.

Choosing Drama Queen Sree over Ishant was a realer howler. Both spray the deliveries around, but Ishant has pace.. and atleast Ricky's wicket would have been guaranteed. ;)
 
Oh crap I missed today's match, I thought the match is tomorrow. :ashamed:

Why is it that I never see tendulkar score a big score, Missed his 200 too :(

It seems as if the powerplay does more damage then good, The previous Eng vs. India match also showed this. Ist over of powerplay and two set batsmen out in consecutive deliveries :rofl:

But still 30/9 is unbelievable, wtf happened to Pathan?

P.S I'd heard of some "world cup plan" from some TV advertisement from tatasky but there is nothing about it on their website, how do I activate this plan? Anyways if the plan doesnt exist now, on which channel in India are the matches broadcasted? I've had enough of the shitty Doordarshan commentary.

^ It is on ESPN, Star Sports and Star Cricket.

And come on, how can someone grow tired of Yashpal Sharma and Wassan on DD. They are the real gem. :)
Which of these channels is the best?

^^ I never trused pathan to play good for Indian team

He only kows to play good in IPL
But his 100 against South Africa was one of the best innings I've ever seen.
 
^ All are same, it wont matter. Star Sports though seems have hindi commentary too.

Though it depends on whether you have cable or DTH. On DTH many operators have Sports Pack.

If on cable, Star Cricket is the best bet.
 
still the game is in our hands
a few more wickets and SA will be in trouble
the required rate is still high
