I don't know whether to be happy that India didn't lose, or sad that we didn't win.

In all honestly, chasing 237...we should have won.
Batting flop. Again.

15 not a good number today, Sachin, Kohli and Rohit all dismissed for that number :shock:

Dhoni almost did it again :love:


There's something about me trying my hardest (obviously) not to support India but I end up doing so when they're in the worst position. Dunno why it happens LOL usually Dhoni is at the crease, probably my favourite Indian player.

Should have chased that though.

Lol, I was supporting Pakistan yesterday...look what happened :facepalm:

Dhoni is awesome. But you can see two sides to his performances, 'cos keeps everyone on the edge of their seats whilst he's batting. Arguably, you can say Dhoni's two innings in the last two ODIs have been putting unneccessary pressure on himself and the tail 'cos of the number of dot balls he faced.

But then, what else do people expect him to do? When he's batting with the lower order, he needs to ensure he's there at the end.

Dhoni's not to blame...other than him running Gauti out.

Kohli, Rohit, Raina all failed. Oh and Sachin. But SRT's dismissal wasn't as stupid as the youngers' ones.

Dhoni is great in the shorter form, wish he'd be better in Tests too.

Tendulkar is badly out of nick. Bowl outside off-stump and he nicks off.

He was in terrific touch at the beginning of the test series. Seems like he's having to be more aggressive through the off-side than he'd like.

I know, then got bogged down a bit afterwards, I think.
Don't think he's ever going get that godforsaken 100th ton. I don't really see it's significance, it's not as if its going to change what a legend he is.

The fact that he hasn't scored a century in almost a year is showing something is up with the Little Master :frown:

Hopefully Pakistan won't do any dodgey business this year.
Doesn't the manager shout at them for it?

But i was shocked last time when i saw the recorded one, once.
The white person provoked the crime?i found it stupid.
He set the pakistani up basically, which is so wrong!

England is consistant thats the thing.

Pakistan start involving opinions,emotions and politics behind their cricket, thats where they mess up!

i was being sarcastic,
it was a big mistake and pakistan have moved on,
i'm definitely sure no-one in pakistan team will ever think of doing anything "dodgy" again.
Let's just hope tomorrow will be a very interesting match between the two cricket nations.

India's innings was one ball short, due to a counting error in the 30th over. That one ball could have obviously changed the game entirely considering it ended with the scores tied.

In either sides favour.
Or made no change at all, since it was in the middle overs.

Though I'm a Sri Lankan fan, I do agree that ball would have likely got India some runs, since they got 9 off the other 5 deliveries, but that wouldn't have meant they would have won the match tho. Since that might have made Dhoni take a few more dot balls during the middle overs. lol :P
