Of course, I'm being a racialist. :D

To understand the rules fully, have a look aroud youtube.

In brief synopsis, if any non Indian/Pakistani fans make any reference to the India/Pakistan teams that is anything other than glowingly positive, they are being racist.

However the twist in the tail is this;

Indian/Pakistani fans can say what they like about the team of any other nation because for us (non Indian/Pakistani fans) to accuse the Indian/Pakistani fans of being racist is itself being racist towards them.


I emphasise the  :D before anyone gets on their high horse.

On a tangent - Bell just played the most textbook drive i have seen in some time! He's racing towards 50.......Pete, I think the 220 all out was a touch pessimistic from you!!!

Didn't Boycs make the comment today though that with the state of the ball in the Indian innings and the slow bowling rate by England had it been Pakistan they would have been accused of all sorts of stuff.

Of course not. But let's just say sometimes the rules are applied to their spirit and sometimes to their letter!

Back on the match when should England take the Powerplay? I think best time is after the 34th over when they change the ball.

Yup, Indian have no plan now I think. Just praying for a wicket and try and take it from there.

Ok, ok....so perhaps I was a little short of the mark!
But the game is far from over yet.
The fat lady may just be changing into her singing clothes, but she is nowhere near singing yet!!! In fact, she's not even warming up and doing her scales yet.
85 more runs to get may not seem like a lot but this game can change in seconds!
But it is nice to see our batsmen playing calmly and not trying to hit the leather off every damn shot!  :(

I will still be really shocked if we pull this one off!!  :o

See - another stroke of luck for Bell there!
That LBW was very lucky indeed! The 2.5M rule is the only thing that saved him!
In fact, I believe that the umpire can decide whether to rule it out or not with the 2.5M rule. And the fact that Khan wouldn't take one or two steps forward and him and Dohni were arguing with him earlier about fielding positions, as I'm sure that it would have p155ed Bowden off a little!!  ;) Always stay on the good side of the umpires and don't wind them up!
Anyway, it is a damn good match so far! Not the best wicket for bowlers but there is movement and turn!
