Why?

This game started ages ago.


Why didn't you post this then???

I considered starting a thread entitle 'England batsmen crumble in Hyderabad" but the cricinfo site is so slow it would be difficult to have a decent debate.

Looks like the club team are being made to look like one.. If India prepare wickets that are so dry the top goes after 50 overs. India had better win the toss in the ODI games..

It seems Finn ended with a hat-trick and Woakes was on a ha-trick so all's well that ends well.

Hyderabad X 163 all out! WELL DONE ENGLAND!

Don't you just love a happy ending

Keeping an eye on cricinfo and seeing our top 4 disappear in quick succession this was a good ending indeed.
We must thank Bopara, Patel, Woakes and Finn for this result.

Now england are playing a club team, and no one wants to comment or start a thread. I wonder why?

Anyway virudagreat.

What were your final conclusions??........

England winning in the sub-continent

Taxi for Viru...

Tra lala la la here we go again

Those indians, whoever they are, certainly made batting in the sub continent look difficult, didn't they ?

We all know how this series is going to go, don't we? It's our time.

I thought Sehwag, Kumland, and Raina could make getting Golden Ducks look easy but those 2 boys Ahmed and Naidu take the biscuit Please Sir, lets be seeing more of those 2

yes bowling wise england did a great job, and could defend a low total. that is a positive for them. batting wise, bopara and woakes did a great job. but there is nothing to be happy about the top order batsman

It doesn't matter if our top order fails as our tail can take your "bowlers" apart

One step at a time viru. As usual you are getting ahead of yourself. We will take this victory and enjoy the fact we bowled that lot out for a very low score I will once again enjoy today, another fine victory and let you dream about the future.

Am assuming before every game it will be watch India thrash England. Then half way through the game OH NO the same old destruction imparted on India..
If India bat first and prepare uneven turning wickets. They may have a chance.But saying that England will bowl them out with one arm tied behind their backs..

Viru, you are struggling to understand something, despite watching England play cricket in all formats, for several months now. Our top order runs down to about number 11 No matter what happens, somebody will do the business. <who cares if it is batsmen number one or number 11?

Indeed Maksi.. In test cricket Anderson averages 13 for a number 11. Raina Averaged about 7 in the recent test series and he bats at 6

get your excuses in now Neon..

Indias biggest problem is that if they produce a batsmens wicket then we will win, and if they produce a bowlers wicket then we will win. They are chanceless and their only hope is too lose gracefully. We are going to absolutely marmalise them and would do in England, on the Sub Continent or on the ruddy moon. Woe betide those who compare this England squad to the others that have played in India. The difference in class between England of yesteryear and England today is an almighty chasm.

Enough about that though, let's enjoy our first victory on tour WOOHOO

Maksi reading your posts makes me very glad I'm on the same side as you are.
If I were an India fan I would be in tears by now.
