India vs Ireland Highlights – T20 World Cup

Ireland Bat

India Bat


Watch cricket highlights: India vs Ireland – from the 2009 T20 Cricket World Cup – scheduled start is 16:30 GMT (22:00 IST)

Scoreline: Ireland Bat 112/8: Andrew White 29 (25) – Zaheer Khan 3-19-4, Pragyan Ojha 4-18-2
India get there in 15.3 overs (18 overs game): Rohit Sharma 52 (45), Gautam Gambhir 37 (31)

Zaheer Khan in the post match and an earlier interview appeared to deflect questions on whether he was fully recovered or not from his shoulder injury which he sustained much like Sehwag while diving during the IPL. Can’t blame him. With so much ruckus over Sehwag, he probably feels its best to avoid statements like, “I’m working my way to total fitness” and the like.

Ireland were without two of their stars from the win vs Bangladesh – Johnston and Niall O’Brien – but went after the complacency hanging about the Indian team once they had Ireland down for 70 odd for 7. Too bad there were no Kevin O’Brien heroics today – he looks seriously interesting.

Dhoni seemed hell-bent on driving everyone nuts by coming in at No 3, nudging it around, trying to launch a few, getting one right and then getting out for 14. But his post-match thing suggests he might not necessarily be doing this all the time as he talks some boring stuff about it all being about the bowling combination. Oh. I get it. If you’re playing a 5 bowling attack like the last couple of games, and therefore have only basically 6 batsmen, you need an experienced total batsman like Dhoni to shepherd those immature guys Yuvraj and Raina through. Man.

His talk of combination deciding his move isn’t clear. Considering the absence of Sehwag, what other combination is possible apart from RP Singh coming in for maybe Irfan. Unless of course, he’s eyeing Dinesh Kartik to take over wicket-keeping duties, much like Parthiv did in the IPL for Chennai.

Pregame: Not sure what the status of Niall O’Brien is considering he’d cracked his foot in the game vs Bangladesh. The only thing sure is Sehwag’s exit from the tournament after his shoulder injury was finally confirmed bad enough.

    Admin,

    For a moment, I thought you were intentionally calling the Irish as English. I wonder how I would have reacted if you had said “British”. After reading your comment, I realized it was sleep deprivation on your part and not lack of my intellectual ability to not grasp the meaning behind it. As usual, I read too much into it than I needed to.

    After listening to Zaheer’s answer to Nasser Hussain’s question about his shoulder, I thought you may have edited Zaheer’s answer. Based on your comment, it seems like he completely ignored the question. Your explanation makes sense.

    I thought your comment about Dhoni was funny. I guess I am one of those guys who tend to be reactive than proactive when it comes to Indian Cricket team. It seems like the team is doing ok for now. I will probably get mad after they have lost due to reshuffling of batting order. We will see what happens.

  27. Suri says:

    Hi, great work guys. The only concern is intially we have to wait a few minutes to buffer. Is there a way that u can upload the videos of the same quality but with a player that can be watched instantly without wait for buffering. I saw that kind if stuff like 3 or 4 months from you only.

  28. Shreehari says:

    @raj… i feel sorry for you man, you must be really twisted in the head.

    PROUD TO WEAR BLUE! Go India
