How unlucky was that

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

I had that twice at indoor yesterday, nailed it at a guy at silly mid off, hit his hip and ballooned to another player. TWICE.

The bowler was protecting himself and the ball just happened to pop into the air and fall into his lap.
KP has to feel more than a little unlucky! Especially when you consider how flukey Sahwag was in the first over!!
But that's the game of cricket for you! Sometimes everything goes your way. But other times, nothing seems to.  :(

At least we have started in a positive manner, although I am still convinced that we will be all out!!

If Chawla wasn't bowling so many pie's he'd have them in real trouble.

Trying to score at this rate when you can't pick the wrong'un is mightly risky.

England are ahead of the run rate, but as I said, they will have a mini collapse somewhere!
If India's mega-strong batting can collapse, then I have a feeling we will soon follow.

Nice to see us putting up a bit of a fight though, and against probably the strongest batting team in the world cup!
Shame we couldn't keep their run rate down a little more - could have made a really close and interesting match!  ???

Still count run them close, going to need them to keep wickets in hand and probably have a few massive overs in the final powerplay.

need to put away the bad balls if were going to get anywhere near the total. Strauss is cramping himself by trying to cut the spinners....need other options as can see him being caught behind or bowled off one!

Because impact was over 2.5 meters so hawkeye is not as accurate but I agree it was out

He got away with it because it's perfectly clear all umpires, officials and indeed the computer hardware that the DRS system is run on are all notoriously racist.

If it wern't true, India would win every ODI by scoring 1800 runs and bowling the opposition out for 0 in 1.4 overs.
