Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

Bah. I tried it, and a “error syncing to MPEG” message is displayed in the status bar. I am assuming you are in the same boat as well?

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

Try re-loading that site a few more times and see if you can get in. Sometimes, late updates are also made at the eleventh hour.

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

Seventh delivery into day's play, and India are all out, as SreeSanth is trapped LBW. Awesome performance by Hoggard.

India: 323-all out (136.5 Ovs). Trail by 70 runs

M Hoggard* 30.5-13-57-6

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

I did, I did. That was the very first option I used. The "acquiring license" message is staring back at me in a miserable manner.

Not working via WinAmp or Windows Media Player, for me, at least.

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

Now I am in the same page as you. The Login box is there, and when I type-in the credentials, it does absolutely nothing.

Seems like there is quite a heavy load on their server. Taking quite a long time to load, even their homepage.

And I recall someone mentioning about the desperate 10,000 NRI desi's getting their hands on this one. A Nightmare for these "naive goras", I tell you. :D

Chalein jee, mein akailay hee commentary jaaree rakhta hoon apni. Awaaz record kar kay kul subah pooray muhallay mein baant doonga, eik adad gulaab jaman kay saath. :D

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

Hot off the press (Garam garam tandoor sey :D)

1.6 Sree Santh to Cook, 1 run, inside edge onto the pads, appeal for leg before, but not very convincing*

Aleem Dar should be hanged for this one. If he stood at square leg, let's hang him for yesterday's sufferings. :D

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

hahaha

yes i was thinking the same thing, heavy load on the server, poor gora's

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

2.6 Pathan to Cook, no run, shaping away and draws Cook across, to beat the outside edge.

Try picturing yourself with an actual cook in your kitchen, with an emphasis on the bold above. :D

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

3.2 Sree Santh to Strauss, 2 runs, inswinging on good length, but the line allows the batsman to whip it away off his pads, to mid wicket

This reminds me. All day yesterday, Ian Botham and his over-the-line “reverse swing” comments. From doodh wala to golay ganday wala, they all were getting the ball to reverse-swing yesterday…

Thankfully, it is just commentary and not the audio I am listening to.

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

are dhobi bhai
check this in winamp - http://66.221.255.98:8000/;stream.nsv
working well for me as of now

as soon as those 10000 desis get on it, it will be another story

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

3.3 Sree Santh to Strauss, no run, fuller length, Strauss punches it back, but its crashed straight into the stumps at the non striker's end, was hit very well indeed.

Woh to shuker hai stumps beech mein aagaaye, warna hamaray Mamu Aleem ko phir sey phaansi kay phanday charha diya jaata. :D

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

"Magnifi-shunt effort by Hoggard" - Srinath :p

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

english are making it look easy, what is this yar? they're supposed to be struggling with their injuries and what not

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

I know, I know. All credit to Aleem Dar for making things happen, instead of waiting for them. :D

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

On another note, CricBuzz has totally misprinted the actual meaning of LBW on their running commentary score webpage.

LBW, we call it Luv B4 Wedding.

Chain nahin hai in logon ko bhi. :D
