[notting hill]

ok.. now since the match has got over .. can we have your views "Always neutral" .. on England's loss ..????!!!!!! .. and yeaa Pakistan is in the semis... so whats the english tke on it mate ??

 

[ajpirzada]

this is not fair....
this rain screwed everything. windies were told to make 80 runs in 9 over and they had all their wickets with them. in other words u can say windies made 80 runs in 11 overs at the loss of no wickets!!!!!!!!!!
they should have reduced the total number of wickets as well

T20 debacle: What cost India the game





New Delhi: A three-run loss at Lord's to England on Sunday sealed India's fate in the World T20 championship and made sure that there will be a new T20 world champion come June 21.

A day after the shocking defeat, CNN-IBN's Nishant Arora dissects the mistakes that cost India the game:

Dhoni's first blunder as skipper was to yet again not complete the quota of overs for his best new ball bowlers. RP Singh delivered a wicket and went for only 13 in his three overs, yet he didn't get a fourth over to bowl.

Despite going for 26 in his three overs, Zaheer Khan's experience was too invaluable to ignore. Why did the skipper not turn to him instead of handing over the ball to Ishant Sharma, who has generously given runs throughout the tournament? Ishant went for 36 in his full quota of four overs.

India's third mistake in the field was allowing two wide balls by Harbhajan Singh to sail to the boundary, not once but twice. As the senior spin bowler, it was a cardinal sin by Harbhajan to bowl two such shocking deliveries - first in the 18th over and then in the final over. Those 10 runs cost India dearly.

Tell us: Should Dhoni quit as captain?

The decision to bat Suresh Raina at number three in the batting line-up despite his obvious weakness against the short ball was also hard to understand. With the asking rate (required run rate) not too stiff, could the skipper have given himself the role of seeing the initial England burn out and kept Raina in the dugout for an assault on the spinners?

Then came the game breaker – Ravindar Jadeja sent in to bat ahead of Yuvraj Singh at number four. Jadeja was simply unable to find the boundaries. He consumed six of the 20 overs on offer, making just 25 with one four leaving Yuvraj, Dhoni and Yusuf Pathan too much to do in the end.

T20 debacle: What cost India the game

Come on man, its just a game.
T20 is not a real cricket, its called gutga cricket. Captains cant make strong strategies or plans against any team.

Look Australia also lost, even they were not in super 8 but there media and people are not behaving like that as people/media of Pakistan, India, BD.

Man they are not reborts, Tell u few things which I feel abt the loss of Indian team from T20.

1) There were lack of understanding between captain and players, especially Dhoni and Sehwag issue.

2) Dhoni did mistake to chose bowl first after winning toss.
3) Keeping Irfan out was also mistake, he is a valuable player. Only he needed to come in form, as Last day out of form Shahid Afridi came in action just b4 semi finals.
4) One more thing, I heard Mr Mushtaq Ahmad (Pakistan Ex leg spinner) was helping English men how to tackle Asian spinners in NETS in the tournament.

Any ways the match against England was very close, atleast they fought.......come on there shld be some respect for those players, they won the title in 2007 for u.

Winning and lossing is the part of the game, only team shld learn to fight till last bowl and I say they showed fighting till the last bowl. They didnt give up the game yill last over.

Remember they needed 18 runs last over and they lost for only 3 runs, so their is a fighting sprit which proves that they are also champs like other teams.

@Al-Zakir
Sir thanks for supporting us throughout

wrong friend!

SA v. PAK (subject to today's match - if NZ wins it will create 3-way tie and then decided on net-run-rate, so hold on to those jets!)
SL v. WI (as above)

no1 of one group plays no2 of other group!

No Sir,
Folowing are the current states.

Std-----Teams --------Pts---- Net RR
1 B1 - Pakistan-------- 4------+1.185
2 C2 - Sri Lanka--------4------+0.70
3 D1 - New Zealand----2-------+0.943
4 A2 - Ireland----------0------- -2.183

If Sri Lanka wins today, Pakistan will play against West indies and Srilanka (Srilanka will get 6 points after winning and stand at top in group) against South Africa.

If Newzealand wins today then Pakistan will play against South Africa (Pakistan runrate is already very strong that makes them to qualify for semi's) and Newzealand (Newzealand runrate is batter then Srilankan runrate. Srilankan run rate will drop more if they lose today) against West indies.

whatever the permutations

no1 of one group plays no2 of other group - so lets wait till tonite!

Good news! Bratties are out! WI deserved to get through.

Whoever Pakistan faces, one thing is certain, our team has grown throughout the tournament and they deserve the credit. Despite all the harsh words and criticism the team managed to peak at pivotal junctures. Let's not forget that Pakistan has been alienated for the past few years by the whole cricket community. Pakistan has hardly played any test or ODI series. Against all odds, they have managed to reach the semis in this WC which is a huge achievement. Let's stand behind our team and support them through thick and thin. Again, they fully deserve it.

 

[MZUBAIR]

Today,2 games.

New Zealand vs Sri Lanka (Big game like quater-final)

South Africa vs India
Doesn't matter for SA, if they win or lose, but ofcourse if Dhoni n company wins that will help them to prevent for such harsh criticism.

LOL....brits ve gone 'OOME'...eventhough they were hardone by the rain and D/L (invented by goras)...i would still think that overall it was Windies who should have advanced. England team was fragile. Everytime Pietersen departs they look nervous in batting. Most of work is ususally, nowdays, done by Bopara, Shah, Adeel, and maybe sidebottom.

I wonder where Always Neutral has vansihed...i guess he would be reading these comments. If he praises the opposition and gives where the credit is due, he might feel better

In this case

If Sri Lanka wins today, Pakistan will play against South Africa and Srilanka (Srilanka will get 6 points after winning and stand at top in group) against West indies.

If Newzealand wins today then Pakistan will play against West indies (Pakistan runrate is already very strong that makes them to qualify for semi's) and Newzealand (Newzealand runrate is batter then Srilankan runrate. Srilankan run rate will drop more if they lose today) against South Africa
