The real mystery is why our guys didn't vary the length. We should have bowled some short balls.
The pitch!... |

So India gets the bonus point and we have lot of hard work to against Oz!
:))
Anyway it's good that the tournament is alive as those days Oz used to have a cake walk!
However I would have liked if we win, but still You have to appreciate the Indian effort! |

36.4
Malinga to Kohli, FOUR, and that is how you pull a bunch of rabbits out of Geoff Boycott's hat.
36.3
Malinga to Kohli, FOUR, Kohli glorious! The front foot crouches forward, the bat face opens, the pose is held as the ball booms away over the covers. He swaggers down the pitch, smiles and thumps Raina's gloves.
36.2
Malinga to Raina, 1 run, Raina can take guard on the front foot if he wants to. Everything is full. Pitched up and pu nched through the covers for one.
36.1
Malinga to Kohli, 1 run, another near yorker, Malinga is just not getting the lengths today. Not conceding the four in itself is a mini-victory. Whipped with the angle to deep midwicket for one.
'Amidst all this carnage, spare a thought for Dilshan! Pity him. 2 of his highest scores, both against India and both lost,' points out Venkat..
India won! |

Lose with a ceding a bonus point too.
India well played under extreme pressure.

Herath 4 over for 20 runs. Why wasn't he continued?:
Mahela may have the answer! Of course we here typing and commenting, do not have the idea how the pitch behaves! Am I right? |

Debo,
Not only that, Herat was brought in quite late. Maharoof who was bowling well was not persisted with !!
Mahela has a lot to answer here. |

I watched the last part of the match. Although a very flat pitch, we should have varied our bowling. Malinga didn't bowl a single bouncer. |
