You really want me to?..:lol:
 
England deserved victory today, anyway picture is clear. India forget world cup, you gonna lose first match in the second round...THE END. RIP bowlers like chawla, patel and the lappa king pathan.

England deserved to win. Indian bowling needs a lot of thinking (which was obvious when even Bangladesh scored 283 chasing) !

Oh gimme a break. What about England's match against non-Test playing Netherlands? 292 was a low score, was it?

Today's match proves as much..this World Cup doesn't have a clear favorite.
 
bach gaya India! Lousy all round performance. dhoni should have promoted Pathan before himself-atleast we could have 20 more runs on the board. Bowling like this won't get India into the quarter finals!
 
the iPill has made us expect high.

we undermine credibility of the batsman at strike and blame bowler when we are in this condition..or the batsman in opposite situation if we are batting.. can't the opponent have some genius? or are we so used to playing against a predictable AI ?? :lol:
 
Bangladesh reached 280. Morgan-less England almost created the most successful run chase in WC history.

India can't win the WC with this bowling.
 
Yesterday it was a very disappointing day to watch India field and Bowl the way they did.

Baring a few all most all of them are not fit. They should learn from Strauss. He did not look a bit tired even after scoring 150 runs.

The bowlers bowled many loose balls and the english batsmen were running singles and Two's even if the ball is going straight to the fielders. The Indian fielders should up their ante.

It is disappointing to hear from Dhoni that the fielding could not be improved more. There is no commitment to the team. Few of the other teams put their body on line to stop the ball.

Winning or Lossing doesn't matter if you give 100% to play the game
 
Pathetic Fielding display by India. Even the body language was showing that they were tired don't know why as they has 8 days rest.

The only good fielding display was by Suresh Raina.
 
Both the teams did terrible bowling - and India is surely missing their best bowler, Praveen Kumar.

50 ball 100 from Kevin O'Brien :O Fastest in WC History beating the previous record of 66-ball Hayden 100.

Ireland might beat England today. Dont miss it guys :eek:hyeah:

53 needed of 8 overs with 4 wkts in hand and O Brien still in crease.

IRE need 40 runs in 36 balls

Wow. If there a bowling attack which can leak more runs than us then it seems it is England :p

Stuart Broad 7-0-56-0 -> Wish he had played in our game ;) We would have won.
