Damn .. I jinxed Gayle

BD_TigerZ · #52 June 7, 2013, 10:35 AM

Powell, Sammy and Best need to be in the Windies XI

How tall is Irfan? From Cricinfo:

Misbah isn't a short man and he's towering above him. We've got a gigantic situation here.

Tiger444 · #54 June 7, 2013, 11:34 AM

▲some say he's 7'1" but I think he's 6'10"

These WI batsmen are obvioualy very talented but if they want to be one of the top teams in world cricket, then they have to start rotating the strike better.

Kawali at the Oval

... love it.

Warrior868 · #57 June 7, 2013, 12:27 PM

West Indie!. I was sweating bullets. Too many batsmen want to hit 4 and 6

MohammedShamim · #58 June 7, 2013, 12:30 PM

Excellent Game, Both team's had chance to win, credit to Pakistan Bowlers (Worldclass)

Atfer a while a bowler's game at last in England.

It seems the tournament will be a mix of high-low scoring games. Good for cricket.

Yes - that is why it was a pleasure to watch - and those 600+ runs scored yesterday was just bulimic!

Supporting Australia today over England. Still bitter about the post-colonial ruling of spice industry east portugueuse company.

Gladiators · #64 June 8, 2013, 01:40 AM

England didn't play all that well against NZ, but Australia are weird now - so this could turn out to be anything...

7' 1" ... Taller than Bruce Reid, Garner or anyone who played international cricket. There is an Indian in US who is 7' 4" playing basketball. And yes, he is every bit of 7' 4".

Looking forward to the Zim or World XI side against Aussies

Abid_Khan · #67 June 8, 2013, 04:46 AM

Just wondering... why is there so much hate for the Champions Trophy?

Angur fawl talk.

Because we were not invited.

Equinox · #69 June 8, 2013, 07:11 AM

Was there at the match yesterday. Great atmosphere. Wish Bangladesh was playing so bad.

Tigers_eye · #70 June 8, 2013, 08:01 AM

England losing their way after a great start. Typical. At times 320 was on the cards. Now 270 would be a hard reach. 5 overs to go.

Tigers_eye · #71 June 8, 2013, 08:39 AM

They end up with 269. Not bad. Bopara 46 notout. The pitch is slowing down and turning. England have spinners. This would be interesting unless Watson takes the game away from England.

BD_TigerZ · #72 June 8, 2013, 08:46 AM

Watto and Warner key.

Tigers_eye · #73 June 8, 2013, 08:59 AM

Warner got off the mark. Last two practice match he scored two ducks. Enough practice for him.

ReZ_1 · #74 June 8, 2013, 10:34 AM

Now a days these commies just get into the nerve- during the first innings, when sides batting slow keeps on telling- such a good wicket- they are really falling behind. then in the second innings the sides get the sweat out of their skins to reach towards the target and they say the wicket really changed- such a bad wicket to bat on. and some trying to be versatile discuss among themselves family matters, personal hygiene and so on. Not that all are same but Fredrick's fever seems to have spread all around..

Gladiators · #75 June 8, 2013, 11:58 AM

England with a comfortable win...
