@ Jeraldjay:

@ gunther:
Until you mention how useless the West Indians are or how deur die kak the Cape Saders are, then he is on his soap box again
@ gunther:
There top order is a shambles.
I’m sure they couldv’e pulled VVS, Sachin and Dravid out of retirement and they would do a better job.
this is some good bowling though… ashes will be interesting
Considering the lengths the BCCI have gone to to ensure that they rule the cricket world, they seem to have gone backwards with their team.
Gosh just seen the score for the first time today, it looks like India are in a spot of bother at 43/5 glad to see Chris Jordan has taken 2 of the wickets.
@ nortierd:
Sorry I know it wasn’t on.
😆 @ Jeraldjay:
Boycotts mum with her stick of rhubarb could have done better.
India 44/6
But, as JFK mentioned, it doesn’t matter how crap they are, they are in bed with the correct people
