I think they want to rest the bowlers , else they would have never posted such high score in the 1st innings..

Even last game vinay kumar and 1 more bowler was rested..

 

They should have just played the reserve bowlers then. Why would they go into a match so unprepared? Even bowling with part-timers for the 2nd innings would have been a better strategy than batting on. They are supposed to be the team to beat this season, and they should play like one.

Our top order is collapsing very quickly..Most games we are 80 - 4 , 120 - 5..

CM gautam , S.Gopal are getting the runs in the lower order and saving the team...

So guess they wanted to give some practice to top order..One of my friends who follow domestic cricket very closely told me this..

 

Seems more appropriate reason than resting the bowlers..

we wont give it back it seems :doh:

 

star sports has a way of coming up with the most asinine promos. all of which come back to bite us in the a*s. they seem to enjoy trolling indian fans :P

 

dhawan giving all those gabbar expressions in the promo :rolleyes: he'll have plenty of time to practice those in the mirror after he's out in the first over

 

so what happens when we lose. bcci will still hold onto it & say "main na doonga" B)

BC 99 dollars! Are there any cheaper options of watching it in the States?

last year Football world cup online dekha tha on sony max website for just Rs 99...yeh time agar star sports karta hai online toh dekhna..shayad Rs 100-200 mein ho jaye...Bakhi speed ka tension hoga nahi ...

Mohit bhai, even if star sorts does stream it online, I'm sure it'll be geo-restricted to Indian viewers only. I also watched the T20 world cup on star sports online.

voted for south africa B)

 

 

Wait so last years Dota 2 International had a bigger prize pool than the World Cup of cricket?

 

This is the best the ICC BCCI could cough up?

 

Because it's the no. 1 sport in bunch of gareeb desh and in rich nations it's fairly low on the totem pole.

Ishant Sharma has taken 187 wickets in 61 Tests, at an average of nearly 40, and managed only six five-wicket hauls. Does anyone have worse figures than this?

 

 

 

Of the 171 bowlers who have now taken 100 or more Test wickets, there are 11 with worse averages than Ishant Sharma's, which is currently 37.30. Easily the worst of all the 100-wicket men is the West Indian allrounder Carl Hooper (114 at 49.42), and then come Nicky Boje (South Africa; 100 at 42.65), Ravi Shastri (India; 151 at 40.96), Mohammad Rafique (Bangladesh; 100 at 40.76), Ashley Giles (England; 143 at 40.60), Doug Wright (England; 108 at 39.11), John Emburey (England; 147 at 37.87), Paul Harris (South Africa; 103 at 37.87), Fidel Edwards (West Indies; 165 at 37.87), Dilhara Fernando (Sri Lanka; 100 at 37.84) and Phil Tufnell (England; 121 at 37.68). Most of them are spinners, apart from Edwards and Fernando. As for five-wicket hauls, the only bowlers to have taken more wickets than Sharma with fewer five-fors are Andrew Flintoff (226 wickets, but only three five-wicket hauls) and Jacques Kallis (292 and five). Garry Sobers (235 wickets) and Morne Morkel (currently 217) also took six five-fors.
