Cricket World Cup 2003---> Pool A

The so-called BEST batting line-up managed to barely cross the 200 mark against the worst bowling attack. hmmmm

We should definitely look into this Indian innings for any match fixers. Now, that Azharuddin is not playing, who do you think Indians will blame it on?.

i smell ISI...where's Advani.....

go holland gooooooooo!!

i just cant wait to meet my indian counterparts at the uni lol!

He took 2/47 off 9 overs. Not bad bowling and also had Yuvraj dropped off his bowling.

Didn't they blame Ajay Jadeja also last time?

Regardless of the outcome, I think India should consider this match as a loss. They virtually lost the match after getting bowled out for 204 within 49 overs.

I wonder if McGrath and Gillispie are drooling by now?

to be honest i think india still have a godd chance cuz holland's batting is worse tha their bowlng

but i have to say: the 2 opening bowlers bowled an excellent line and length!

Holland 0/1

First guy gone on the 3rd ball of the innings.

Srinath takes the wicket. Caught in slips.

Srinaths 300 ODI wicket.

Just saw the the leading wicket takers in ODI. Top 5 all Asians:

  1. Akram 493
  2. Waqar 411
  3. Muali 306
  4. Kumble 303
  5. Srinath 300

Oh they were probably drooling after watching garbage NZ bowlers make mince meat of India :D

Does Holland know how to play spin? That is the only danger spot for them, otherwise they can win this.

Holland will lose this match.

My comments are ONLY based on India's batting. John Wright, India's coach said before the match that he wants Indians to be ruthless. if this is being ruthless against a non-test playing nation, then I only wonder how would they play cautious against the Aussies?

i don't know........but i think that in their local competition there are mainly spinners operating....whether those spinners are comparable to international spinners remains to be seen...

21 for 1 at 5 overs. Was that catch supposed to be for Mongia or Dravid?
