VB Series in Australia

[pal]

The only good thing for us Indians is that the lower order did not collapse, maybe it is because we have Tamilians in the lower order along with Pathan....

It's because they did not have to gace Brett Lee or the new ball or the both.
That Agarkar is a true comedian with the bat .I think Harsha is probably right bout the magnet thing.
[He said that the probably has N pole attached with to it and so does Agarkars bat and since like poles repel the ball keeps missing Agarkars bat : ]

indian tailenders performed really well and it's nice to see brett lee back in form :

B) i just hope india doesnt loose to zim on the same pitch.

 

[imported_fastbreaker]

I'm gonna laugh if they do. :

 

[nik]

This time India are gonna thrash the zimbabweans'

 

[-$ohail-]

i think that they will play more sensibly now having faced a defeat
in fact the 1 week break did not help
this is a good wake up call for the finals

 

[nik]

as a strong patriot of my country (India) india will thrash the ozzys and take home the vb series cup. like they took the tvs cup in india! :cheer:

 

[ricky123]

B) i am sure india will take the cup.

but i am not sure india will win tommorow

Don't blame the tailenders, if the batsmen can't do it.

I think the batsmen had the same magnet in their bat as well. Don't tell me that Lee was bowling. Whoever bowls, these guys guys are talented enough to face them. It was just poor application which saw their early demise.

The way the first three wickets fell i was thinking that india has already won the match but Gilly sucked everything :

LOL That's funny as :

 

[squiz]

I reckon it'll be close Zim vs Ind, coz Zimbabwe have a predominately Pace attack which "COULD" work in their favour

 

[indyan]

I really won't balme the Indian batsmen.
I don't think it really was a case of lack of application from the top order.
We must not forget that they are not used to those kind of pitches.
And some of the balls were really good.Sachin got an excellent delivery and so did sourav.

Squiz u are forgetting that the Zimb pace attack severly lacks quality.They can hardly pitch the ball in right pace(except Streak) and also are at the most fast medium.
