Raina definitely deserves the GOLDEN BAT....

 

Guys who will be man of the match?? Negi or Raina??

 

Personally, Raina was brilliant but Negi's 5 wickets which changed the match...Otherwise surely a 220 kind of a pitch...

Ridiculous this is..

Bowlers are being reported , same way switch hit should be made illegal...

 

Its already illegal if you change stance before bowler balls. You are allowed to switch hit if you switch when bowler is in delivery stride. Also, switch hit requires more skill than conventional batting and not everyone can pull it off. Bowlers chucking is unfair and clearly against the laws, and actually requires less skill than conventional bowling.

Bowler should tell umpire before hand , if he changes his hand its a no ball..

Chucking is unfair , no complaints about that..

 

Just saying Switch hit is not fair for the bowlers..

It has already been discussed and laws have been made regarding switch it. What Warner did against Pakistan was well within the laws:

 

MCC’s Laws subcommittee discussed the matter in detail in 2010. We decided that the batsman may switch his grip or stance once the bowler’s back foot had landed in his delivery stride. The International Cricket Council issued a directive to this effect and, under the letter of that directive, Pietersen should have been within his rights to change his grip once Tillakaratne Dilshan’s back foot had landed.

The series is absolutely pointless. Whoever performs/fails here wont matter in WC as pitches are vastly different there. The whole series is without any context. Would have been better if they gave players ome rest and then sent them early to Australia to play for some of the First class sides so that they get accustomed to the conditions. I'm expecting Rahane to perform better than most of the other batsman as Mumbai pitch has more life and bounce than tradional indian pitches. Thus he should be able to handle bounce better.

Managed to sneak in a pic without looking like a total pervert in front of my family :fear:

After I took the pic, the guy in cap started hiding her face with his hand as camera was on her for too long :lol:

 

She is wearing a black skin tight mini one piece :wub:
