Shikhar and Rahane batting. Akram kept saying Mukammal. What’s up with that? Last time I checked, there ain’t no one in the Indian team by that name.

And who the heck is Umda?
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
^ What you pointed out are not names, but words.
Mukammal means complete or thorough.
Umda means beautiful or nice.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
Terrible batting by India. In fact terrible approach. Every time someone gets out, next batsman gives 4 to 5 dot balls. And then gets out.
Just play your game. Learn from Warner. See ball. Hit ball.
This building foundation business is overrated.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
Dhoni true to form. 2 runs off 12 balls so far.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
Dhoni 2 fours in 3 balls. Binny playing well. 152 for 5 off 39 overs.
Make that 6 wickets. One of the best catches at slips. By Ian bell. Binny out
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
Typical rear guard action from. Mohammae Shami pulls India to 200.
Terrible show by the rest except Rahane and Dhawan.
Dhoni not good enough to bat at number 6.
Bell another brilliant catch.
India enter world cup in danger of not making it through to next round. A village in Scotland has a good Chance against punches timid India
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
India 200 all out.
Mera England Mahan.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
Ji bilkul.
Impressed with Ian Bells catching. And he batted very well against Australia. Moin Ali bowled brilliantly. Anderson was very good as usual. Broad and Finn and Woake (spelling?) Also bowled well.
Shoaib and Kapil were confused why the pacers were holding ball cross seam. Then one of them offered - get more bounce.
The ball was flying off the wicket. One hit Dhoni on the helmet when he was on the back foot defending.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
Didn't watch England bat. Just saw score is 66 for 5.
Binny and Mohit doing a good job. Aksar Patel also gets a wicket.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
India have not been batting so well lately but it would be wrong to read too much into these games. The focus and motivation is not the same.
They will be up for it when they meet Pakistan on the 15th of next month.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
England win 201/7
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
200 was never going to be enough but once again bowlers could not finish the job. Should have done better after getting those early wickets
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
After 66 for 5, this was surprising. Had checked the score before retiring - was abt 97 for 5. Had a feeling England might pull it off.
Looks like if wicket gives some assistance the bowling is ok. The batting right now is in shambles. Maybe Nohit coming back helps.
But very negative approach. If each batsman takes 4 dot balls before scoring, that is a lot of dot balls.
And Dhoni can no longer produce miracles. Kapil said when Dhoni was batting - he USED to score fast.
Australia plays positive cricket. Right now Indian batting very negative - no punch. As GA said, this is the stage where they get all the cobwebs off. And regrouop.
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
India winless on the tour
yeh to Lulz hogaya
Re: India vs England one day -Wasim Akram getting confused
At one Stage when India was on 100/1 I thought they will achieve 250 but big collapse and they were bowled out on 200.
India got early wicket but Taylor and Buttler partnership did the trick and took away the game from India. Especially their running was super, All Asians players should learn how to steal singles.
