Group A - 12th Match Ireland v India

[SaiSrini]

India are doing it so easily here... I dont quite agree with Nasser Hussain. You got to finish it comprehensively (a big win). I dont want India to give easy wickets in their quest to finish it in style.

As I say this, Gambhir is OUT! Hope Dhoni comes out and gets good practice for himself.

Dhoni again at no.1

Dhoni again at no.1

It was an inconsequential match, and Dhoni needed practice since he is struggling to get the big hits going in this version of the game. What was wrong with him coming in?

In fact, I would say that Dhoni is going to be the regular No.3 in this tournament with Raina down the order for the late big hitting. Logically, it sounds correct to me because Dhoni doesnt hit big these days and Raina will be needed for the late overs to push the score to a really good one. If Dhoni gets going (even without big hits, he can score 8-9 runs an over with his 2's, 3's and a solitary boundary), India can really do well.

India wins comfotably and will go to super 8 with winning spirit. Rohit is in good form so India may not miss Sehwag but Dhoni shouldn't be come at 1 down.

Raina is perfect at no. 3 as he can play long innings as well as can score fast runs and he is in good form also so chaging his position will effect his form and probably team India.

i dont know why Dhoni changing his position,he must be in no 6.may be he testing his position,hope it does not happen in Super 8
Rohit in excellent form,as also Yuvi .

This is Sharma's breakout tournament, going very nicely so far. Biggest test will come in the next stage. Khan came back nicely, best he has bowled in T20.

I feel Rohit will be the man on whom India will rely to stay till the end.Hes aggressive and scores quick runs too.Gambhir will be the man who tries to take risks and Rohit will try and stay till the end.The idea looks good and if its backed with execution it'll be a huge success I guess with power hitters like Raina,Yuvraj,Yusuf and Dhoni( he needs to gain form.hes looking pathetic right now)

And yeah as people above has said,our death bowling needs to be improved.Dhoni must try and bring Ishant like how he brought Balaji in the IPL.Make him bowl his 4 overs in the last 10 overs of the innings.

India wont win this one, its SA's time to shine

 

[shefellover93]

Yup. Ireland has no chance here. Good for B'desh. As we along with them are going to the super eights...Ireland has no chance at all.

We are very closely equal to South Africa. And in T20, nothing can be predicted. Lets see.
