So who's watching this..?
Great start from England, missed the dismissals but saw a replay of a Kieswetter spectacular.
Any opinions on anything...
Raina to launch a couple like the last one..? :)
-
No better way to spend a Saturday afternoon and it should be a cracker.
England will struggle batting second but a great start with the bowling
-
Good counter-attack from India there, not sure how long these 2 batsman will last though..
-
I think tomtek has been coaching India
Go hard or go home
-
That was a damn good catch from Hales.
Just seen the replays, how can Kiewswetter hold those and drop easy ones?! :o
-
How big is that Puma
-
Its a stickered up Puma and stamped PH on the edges

How big is that Puma
I was just thinking that lol first Asian player to use/be sponsored by Puma? Can't think of anymore
-
ganguly used puma a while back
-
I'm loving the crowd, screaming like mad, a wicket goes and it's total devastation!!
-

I seen the Nike with PR on the edge but didn't notice the puma
-
Ive found it odd recently that kohli,dhoni,rahane use very average looking Bas gloves as well
-
It's just the sponsorship money that motivates that I'd have thought mate. Maybe they are very comfy though, comfort and feel are what most go on when choosing a glove (I think..), so look doesn't come into it that much.
Key wicket there..! :)
Edit:
Key WICKETS :D
-
Its all gone quiet over there....say its all gone quiet over there!!!
-
Dhoni's worn that style for years as well and I've never seen Kohli bat in anything else, it just seems odd that these India batsman aren't sponsored by any one company as opposed to Raina Dravid etc. I see Uthappa is sponsored by Kookaburra so are we now likely to see the Indians use Overseas Sponsors?? Surely they make enough from the IPL already Haha
-
How plumb was that LBW?!
-
Shocking behavior from KP!!
-
Surely he'll be fined for that - utter stupidity, he was square of the wicket so what does he know..
-
Did you notice him mouth 'T**t' aswell?
-
That was like the idiot who appeals from gully on a Saturday
-
That sums up Pietersen nicely for me.
Stunning stuff from England. Double wicket maiden from Ravi.
Complete silence inside one of the biggest stadiums in the world
-

Yeah, I was wondering if many saw that. Why does he care anyway lol..
That was like the idiot who appeals from gully on a Saturday
Haha that's usually me..! ;) - I go by the philosophy if you don't ask you don't get..
eg. the Prior stumping of Sachin Tendulkar at the Oval that wasn't given - only cause he didn't ask!! :(
RavBop seems to like Swanny as captain..I think Swann has captained very well here!
-
A man with a spanner couldnt be plumber.
How plumb was that LBW?!
-
Have India been giving some stick to Bopara or is it just Patel?
-
Could that drop be costly,, yes... :(
-
I think it was both, I always remember when Owais Shah got sledged by Pakistan and he gave as good as he got back in the local Punjabi language it surprised a few of them lol
-
This is like gold dust, Dhoni got out!
-
Could that drop be costly,, yes... :(
Well he edged and got caught as well
-
I can see Pietersen getting triggered.......
-
How Plum was THAT? going over the top lol
-
Do you think they will use 4/5 spinners..? Anyone..?
-
Ravi Bopara is the only English player (that I can see) that has got a T20 100
-
Dont need hundreds!
3 50s are better than 1 100!
-
Why did he play that shot?! ???
CK had been looking at his bat practically the entire innings lol :)
-
Ravi Bopara is the only English player (that I can see) that has got a T20 100
Out of this team yes, Cook has one but he 'isnt a 20/20 player'
-
At least ge tried to use his feet so I've not got a problem there give them freedom we were too timid against spin in the odis
-
Thats more like the Indian fielding of old!
-
He didn't get triggered :o
-
Im shocked!
Anyone else find it depressing that Pietersen is probably better than all of us left handed?
-
Looks village against left arm spin and then does that haha
-
KP = class
-
Not great from hales tho in what was shaping up to be a good over...either give it a slap or don't! Chipping it about
-
KP = class
Up until those two shots he didn't look quite as classy!
-
Out of this team yes, Cook has one but he 'isnt a 20/20 player'
Ahh yes, Cook had back to back 100's for essex, both not out I believe, Bopara's was also for Essex, don't think there has ever been and International T20 hundred for England
-

Confidence thing with him, playing poor, 2 rediculous shots and now hes having fun.
-

Morgan has the highest 85*
-
I told you!
-
Yep, sawn off good!!
Hopefully they don't collapse or muck it up from here!
-
I love the fact that if the umpire gets a decision wrong from an Indian point of view it gets replayed from every angle, pieterson gets a shocker and we get a crappy nearly side on replay and hawk eye being available but not for us to see Laughable such a shame for a great cricketing nation to be run by a bunch of idiots!

"Start the tuc-tuc"
I love Bumble!
-
What the (No Swearing Please)? Pietersen reprimanded for showing dissent.
To quote cricinfo: "15.5
Raina to Pietersen, OUT, 57.9 mph, he's given him! Pietersen swivelled into a reverse sweep but missed the ball and was struck on the pad. Raina was bowling round the wicket, however, and this looked to have pitched outside leg. But he's got to go, and to his credit he does so without complaining. Is there still hope for India? "
-
Yep, lost 50% of his match fee for laughing and shaking his head. He also pleaded guilty.
-
Ridiculous, surely the umpire should be fined for giving a wrong decision!
-
That is ludicrous! It was an appalling decision, that umpire was poor throughout - Bopara had Pathan plumb in front of middle, not given! Pietersen IMO showed no dissent other than a shake of the head and a smile, harmless reaction.
-
If anything i thought he handled it well.......
-
If anything i thought he handled it well.......
I think everyone thought that!
-
That's a complete and utter joke.
He didn't start swearing at the umpire, the laughed at the situation but took the decision and left.
If they were going to fine KP for anything, it should have been for arguing with the umpire in the 1st innings when he didn't give Pathan out when he was plumb.
That umpire was awful, to be fair the umpiring in the series has not been great with a lot of England players seemingly getting triggered.
And then the host broadcaster won't show the replays of those dismissals >:(
-
Why does the last bit come as a surpise Johan? It's the BCCI who are in charge of broadcasting...
And remember they don't like reviewing decisions!
-
Yeah that bit wasn't a surprise, just a general moan. Also, the SL/Pakistan test has had a fair few shockers in it, they're not using DRS there for some reason..
Got to the point where commentators were discussing having the umpires rotate per session! :o

Probably because Sri Lanka are broke and cannot afford DRS

If you are being serious (as opposed to fishing for a bite lol), its down to the host broadcaster and board to pay for it. Hence it should be Pakistan.
-
No not aimed for a bite. I presumed it was in Sri Lanka. They are broke, they haven't paid there players for months, and owe £14 million to a Chinese construction firm for the stadium used in the world cup.
-
Lol I hoped as much :D
-
Matt Prior has also scored a T20 100!
