I am extremely angry at Pilot for getting Ash out. This was his day. He was so sad, looked to me almost in tears. I won't forgive pilot for quite sometime for this.

This out changed this game all together!


Ash didn't have to take the run.

-Ash didn't take the run..he was at the non-striking end and was forced to run towards the opposite end when Mashud took off after hitting a ball that went straight to a fielder..!!
How was he forced? He was the set batsman, he could have just held his ground and Mashud would have been run out instead of him.
Seriously , you cant blame anyone for that runout... They were both under pressure and this kind of thing happens regularly in cricket... I actually did not understand Whatmores gameplan.. Opening with a spinner against the worlds best players of spin??
