Phew! That was close. The first replay they showed looked like it was out. But I guess he got the benefit of the doubt.
ICC Cricket World Cup 2011
- Thread starter The Taurean
- Start date
Sachin pure genius
We'll win this with extras
Roles swapped ? Sachin the aggressor and Sehwag to anchor ? Or all out attack ?
Not a great shot from Tendulkar there, should have just left it.
you can feck-off tait.
Just fecking calm down you chump and hit the length.
Shaun tait - malinga lite.
How come Australia had a century from Ponting, lost only 6 wickets but got only 260.
the crowd
Hope they continue at every stage.

Ok now the real battle: Brett Lee v Sachin Tendulkar!
Should be like that, flaccid pitch and other than Lee, the rest flatter to decieve. Johnson can be very good on his day though, although those days are few tbh.
Bowling at crucial moments was spot on, never let Australia ever get on top.
They're in awful batting form.
A sub-continent crowd watching their home team in a big match is a glorious sight.

I want Sehwag to face Tait.
Brett Lee bowling well. Apart from the four, he's bowled in the right place.
He is a pretty economical bowler. His average of just 22 runs a game in stunning!
Johnson better be on his game! Hopefully he has his evil eye brows on.
Tait's all over the place.
I think Johnson is going to replace Tait the next over after Brett Lee.
Reckon Australia are 20-40 runs short. Looking good for India.
This is going to be another annihilation of Australia on par with Barcelona v Arsenal.
Sultans a chicken plucker! thats right, I went there!
I'm struggling to see the benefit of Shaun Tait.
This match is over.
Believe!
This is going to be another annihilation of Australia on par with Barcelona v Arsenal.
You seem to be very confident of an Indian victory. Has your age and long beard taught you nothing about Indian circket?
He's being realistic
All depends which Johnson turns up really....
This is the big one. If we can dent Mitchell Johnson early, all Australia have left is Brett Lee
Is the Tendulkar-Sehwag pairing the best opening pairing in ODI's today?
Yup, needed to get an early wicket, probably Tendulkar more than Sehwag, and then see how the rest react.
Instead it has been a steady start for India, and without too much hassle already 31 wiped off the target.
Ooooh another extra.
Sehwag showing restraint.
Jaysus tait is quick!

Aussies being rubbish is my reason.
