ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

Think these kinds of pitches suit Bhuvi more than Shami. Bhuvi will be difficult to score against whereas Shami being an attacking bowler, can be scored against if the pitch offers nothing.
Hardik will be vital for India, they will surely target him. If he can contain them or even get a wicket or two, India will be able to contain England

Will come down to our spinners. If they can't take wickets in middle overs then England will get 350+

 

[MJJ]

I support India. Obviously I'd want Pakistan to lose every fecking game.

You are just rattled at the sight of Pant playing today. Who's the next player who you are going to predict as a test cricket failure before he has played a single ball of test cricket?

I mean the two things aren't mutually inclusive.

 

[KM]

Decent start by us. Bairstow had been lucky.

 

[Moonred]

Bairstow’s off the field whining have brought him unexplained luck.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

Jonny Edgestow is one lucky man.

 

[Moby]

Decent start by us. Bairstow had been lucky.

We need wickets in first 10 overs. If they survive that with or without luck it will be a tough ask to restrict them below 350. That's what they are simply looking for, is getting past the Bumrah spell with no damage.

Miles more Indian fans than England!
Man they love their cricket.

Leave voters must be frothing at these scenes.

 

[AJ10]

This is easily a 300+ wicket, wonder why they changed it from previous game.

Lots of Asian people in Birmingham so no surprise, India get great support when they tour.

 

[AshRK]

They finally listened to Bairstow's whining.

 

[2mufc0]

Good start by England, first time this tournament India bowlers are being taken on, let’s see how they react.

 

[TheGame]

This is easily a 300+ wicket, wonder why they changed it from previous game.

The pitch is prepared for each match however the hot weather over the weekend especially yesterday has made it drier. The ball is spinning and Shami has bowled well.

 

[MDFC Manager]

Don't know what match you guys are watching, this doesn't look like an easy 300 pitch at all to me. Especially against our bowling

England will do really really well to get 300.

Shami has bowled well, very unlucky not to get a few.

 

[Moby]

No wicket in the first 10. Job done, as far as England are concerned.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

Don't know what match you guys are watching, this doesn't look like an easy 300 pitch at all to me. Especially against our bowling

England will do really really well to get 300.

Anything over 270 will be a difficult chase.

Haven’t you heard? It’s a conspiracy by England.

Clearly something there for the bowlers, seam and spin if they hit the right spots.

 

[FlawlessThaw]

Both Bumrah and Shami have bowled well, constantly asking questions and no gimmes. Roy and Bairstow have either had to use a bit of luck or hold back their natural game.

Pandya might benefit here as the batsman will feel they have to go after him.

 

[Moonred]

Done well to not lose wickets. Rode their luck and can build now.

 

[TheGame]

Hit the glove, mistake by India there.

 

[Moonred]

We all heard a noise

 

[Di Maria's angel]

How lucky can you get?

 

[Snowjoe]

Thought I’d heard a snick in real time on that one

 

[prateik]

Unless England throw it away, I think they are set for a 300+ score..

There was a little something for the seamers with the new ball. not sure it'll last for too long.
England didn't lose wickets.. They have set themselves up nicely.

 

[AJ10]

My opinion was based on general condition of this pitch, Of course it doesn't mean quality bowlers can't bowl well on this pitch.

Also tried to attack Imad after the match, idiots.

 

[TheGame]

India can review but they didn’t.

So did I, Dhoni seemed less certain though.

 

[TheGame]

But the pace of the pitch has been mixed and some balls of died on the batsmen.

 

[crappycraperson]

Pathetic not to review that.

 

[MDFC Manager]

So that's both openers having slices of luck...

 

[AJ10]

That = its not a good batting pitch?

 

[Zlatattack]

The one day I start supporting India and your boys start playing rubbish.

60-0 cmon! We need some wickets.

 

[2mufc0]

Crazy not to review.

 

[TheGame]

It’s a good surface with the weather but the way you were saying it, there is nothing for the bowlers in the pitch when there clearly is.

 

[crappycraperson]

Really don't know what kind of pitches English want. Maybe where you just use bowling machines instead of bowlers since pitches don't offer bowlers anything.

 

[MJJ]

Crazy not to review.

Maybe kohli fixed the match?

 

[crappycraperson]

Hardik getting hit out of the attack. Big problem. Jadhav will have to bowl today
