England vs India at Edgbaston Cricket Ground, Birmingham

[LeGenD]

no..bumrah is the worlds best bowler...he is no 1 ranked bowler in odis..compare starcs and bumras runs conceded in this world cup and you will understand.

I see.

But I posted my personal opinion. Mitchell Starc can deliver results in virtually any setting and rip through batting partnerships in pressure situations - extremely dangerous. This man have god-gifted bowling talent and nerves.

Just look at how Starc collapsed NZ batting line-up a day earlier. NZ can struggle in batting situations but not easy to humble.

The first 10 - 15 overs will decide the outcome. If India get off to a flier without losing wickets they are in for a chase.

comon india!!


may the phorce be with you and you hit every ball like brahmos missile! and balls fly like tejas and cross the boundaries!

India not playing to win. But to maintain run rate.

 

[maximuswarrior]

English bowlers would be more ferocious like their batsman as it's a do or die situation for them. India I don't think would be able to chase this but secondary focus is not to loose badly by more than 60-70 runs and reduce our nrr even if we loose.

It depends on the first 10 overs. If India start off aggressively it can become a good chase.

Shami was good, but got a little hammered in the end. Yes Jadhav shd be replaced with either DK or RJ.

Shami is not good for long spells in death overs

Yeah spinners gave away this game. 98 runs between 10-20 overs is rediculous. Eng didnt even score that many in last 10 overs.

Nice batting track, lets see what India does

Shami was the one who put brakes on fast scoring rate in the middle overs, any bowler can be smashed in such a wicket in death overs especially against batsman like Ben stokes. Bumrah well is an exceptional all literally all his deliveries in last overs were Yorkers only bowler who I remember could do that in the past was malinga during his peak time.

Your hatred for India is much more than expecting ur team to win..this is what i was expecting to hear from you guys...

Personally i like to see Pakistan to be in Semis...Pakistan is not a weak team..u fans are upset because they lost to India..

you want pak to be in semis so that you may have a weak opponent. pak has a world class bowling but a third class batting slightly better then afghanistan so that's why they dont deserve to be in the semis.they had 3 shameful performances in the tournament i.e. against WI, ind and afg. avg performances against SA, NZ and aus and good performance in one match only against eng. many players are not selected on merit. so that's why they dont deserve to be in the final 4. the final between eng and aus will be interesting match.
as far as hatred for india is concerned it is a universal truth but yes it is also a fact that indian cricet team is more professional then pak cricket team just like PAF is more professional then IAF.

That's what I am saying India should go forward with 5 Batsman + 1 WK + 5 Bowler scheme.
Open with Bhuvi & Shami, Middle with Shami & Pandya and death over with maximum of Bumra & mixture of Bhuvi & Shami

 

[litman]

eng is 50 runs short. it is going to be a tough game. dont know why root played so slow.

I see.

But I posted my personal opinion. Mitchell Starc can deliver results in virtually any setting and rip through batting partnerships in pressure situations - extremely dangerous. This man have god-gifted bowling talent and nerves.

starc has the advantage of his height and pace. these things give him edge over amir.

Dude with our current middle order woes we can't afford a 5 specialist bowler squad

 

[crankthatskunk]

first over maiden by Woakes.
Already pressure mounting on India. If lose by big margin, the run rate would go down and pressure truly on.
I wish Afghanistan had played sensibly and beaten Indians. It would have the effect of "Cat among the pigeons".

 

[litman]

root will be responsible for eng loss today. BC. batted like pakistani batsman and dropped rohit's catch like a pakistani fielder.
