Awesome stuff from Badri...

badri is an excellent fielder - in this current team with yuvi on the decline and no kaif, Badri si the best along with Raina.

Kohli is also good

agree... but whats with Yuvraj... is it, that the Maharathi status catching up with him as well...

agree - forgot about kohli !! yuvi still has knee issues i think.

i win - i make it 65 now. a lucky wicket.

ZK saves india the blushes!

your 65 prediction went wrong.
I think they will go up to 125.

bah !! you are wrong too

Here was my prediction !! I will be the closest

SL will score 150 with 50s from KMDNK and MTTM

let's see. but none of them scored a 50

Wondering about the long names the SL players have.. the initials KMDNK sounds like a short name of Suraj Barjatya movie

Bhajji limped off the field after bowling 1 ball. Dhoni like an idiot replaced him with Zaheer !!! Now Zaheer can bowl only 9.5 overs and bhajji can potentially bowl only 9.1 overs !!!

How can an international captain make such dumb mistakes !!!

teamindia · « **Reply #85 on:** August 20, 2008, 07:28:29 AM »

142 all out.

justforkix · « **Reply #86 on:** August 20, 2008, 07:31:24 AM »

143 is the target !! 3 less than what we scored in the 1st ODI

Now that bowlers have delivered with the ball, it is time for them to deliver with the bat..... we may miss Ojha's batting here unless PK can contribute 15-20 runs with the bat.

I think Munna Bhai will score our winning runs

kohli, the future captain of india, tried his best to lead the way back(to the comforts of the pavilion)but the captain's plans went awry. he is young after-all.

Maybe Yuvi was sent in as nightwatchman to see us thru' to lunch

Libran · « **Reply #90 on:** August 20, 2008, 08:13:46 AM »

Some guys are gunning for Kohli ....

Milton: "Kohli is not sure about where his off stump is. He is too tentative to be an opener at the highest level."

Libran · « **Reply #91 on:** August 20, 2008, 08:15:53 AM »

Jayawardene may open the post lunch game with Mendis....

Follow the Vodafone toeline.... " wherever Yuvi goes, Mendis follows "

Libran · « **Reply #92 on:** August 20, 2008, 08:17:08 AM »

Ajay: "India is going to lose this match. M & M Phobia will let them down. Sri Lanka will start bowling with Mendis from 5-6 over onwards."

Ajay was a "guest" here

Libran · « **Reply #93 on:** August 20, 2008, 08:21:11 AM »

Suresh: "Bad captaincy by Dhoni to have allowed seventh wicket partership of 70+ and to have given bowlers like Yuvraj. At 44 for 6 , he should wrapped up the innings below 100 by using main bowlers and not part timers. Though as much as i like Dhoni, i believe the media and analysts overlook his mistakes."

Some interesting comments pouring into Cricinfo

Conquerer Vanquished !!!

Lasted 9 balls - 1 run - CLUELESS

Yuvi decided to do the march past rather than continue getting RAGGED !!!

14.5 Mendis to Yuvraj Singh, OUT, Yuvraj continues to be a sitting duck against Mendis. Done in by that carrom ball again. It landed on a length around middle and off, Yuvraj groped forward and across, front leg landing well across the line and he couldn't get his bat around the front pad in time and the ball cut in to trap him right in front. Dead duck.

well, he is slowly but surely conquering - from 4 balls to 3 overs today, a 600% improvement - now, that is a blue chip!

our future captain, after setting us on the path to victory decided to walk away from the limelight.

75-5 !!!

Rohit - similar to Sanath I would think....

k-slice · « **Reply #108 on:** August 20, 2008, 09:51:40 AM »

this is starting to worry me. Not the fact that we have just lost the excellent test player-in-oneday-boots Virat Kohli(and please save the usual"situation demanded it" bull faeces), but rather the fact that we REALLY have nobody to replace the big 3 and its gonna bite us in the arse sooner rather then later. I am not basing this off this match but VK is no replacement for VS and i am now begining to doubt if RS will ever really come to the party to stay or if he will continue his show up and leave acts.

justforkix · « **Reply #109 on:** August 20, 2008, 09:55:20 AM »

come on - one wicket to make this interesting

justforkix · « **Reply #110 on:** August 20, 2008, 10:18:35 AM »

Tony Greig, on air, is impressed with Badrinath. " From what I see here today, I think he will get a run in Tests."

justforkix · « **Reply #111 on:** August 20, 2008, 10:20:06 AM »

Rajiv: "What a match! Our bowling and fielding always keeps us in the hunt. If only we had another 2 consistent batsmen (other than Sanga, Mahela and Sanath) to replace Chamara "I don't belong here" Silva and Tillakaratne "I will never realise my potential" Dilshan, we would be atop the rankings."

Navin: "Badri should have been selected in the Indian team 2 years back itself. He is a prime example of selectors ignoring genuine talent and performance in domestic and A tours. Lesser batsmen got preference repeatedly over him. Perhaps the south zone selector in the selection panel has got something personal against him. Even for this series, if he hadn't shouted (after finally being fed up) openly against selectors, he wouldn't have got selected."

pipsqueak · « **Reply #113 on:** August 20, 2008, 10:33:03 AM »

how were uthappas and yousuf pathans picked over badri? dhoni and the selectors are rank idiots.

justforkix · « **Reply #114 on:** August 20, 2008, 10:45:57 AM »

It acually took injuries to SRT, Viru and Gambhir for Badri to finally get a chance in the ODI playing XI !!!!

FYI, Uthappa & Yusuf Pathan got selected on the basis of their performances in domestics unlike Rohit Sharma & Virat Kohli...

VB Chandrashekar was busy hobnobbing with Greg Chappell and Kiran More for him to be really concerned about Badri.. Well...better late than ne'er
