He's been happier hooking than avoiding, but then he took that bad blow last year when he top edged a hook into his face,

A side that hasn't won ANY match in ANY FORMAT on their last 3 consecutivr tours of the Southern Hemisphere over the last 14 months are apparently being "under-estimated" and one of the favourites for the World Cup. You couldn't make this *modded* up. :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm

Important win on what sounds like a tricky pitch. Well done Taylor and Buttler, wickets for Finn again and apparently some good catching.

India experimenting in these games, while England putting out their best team. And India went close in their game v Australia. The Asian powerhouse have had good use out of the competition, and are a stronger team than England, taking into account the recent series in UK. Especially if they get Kohli and Dhoni started. But Australia are way ahead.

Even if you take into account the results in the UK, its 3-3 and England have won the last 3 and in conditions closer to what you'll get in the WC. Add to it India's embarassing displays in SA and NZ. But sure, they are better.

Dunno. England won at Perth and Brisbane. The extreme end of conditions. And not convincing today. The dead rubber in UK didn't mean much. I'd be a happier India fan right now.

After the way their bowlers got carted in the Tests, India must surely be happy with the econs of a few of their seamers.

It shows India's attitude to these games that they gave the expensive Jadeja ten overs, just because he needed them, rather than the match situation needed them.
