1o runs off 5 balls.

India had dug their own grave.

England destroyer Jerome Taylor coming in.

Dhoni hits him for six, and almost yawns.

Then he waddles a 2, takes a single, and has a nap at the non strikers as Yusuf wins the game.

It should have been an exciting match, but with dhoni there it seemed like a sunday stroll to get an ice cream.

This is such a stupid fucking series though.

It took Dhoni’s waddle to victory to get me to speak about it.

    Yes! J. Lets stick to the more surreal cricket… evryone else realised commenting is also a waste.. So ahoy the Ashes! Did u notice Ian Bell.. absolutely hilarious.. Lee might hv just played the undertaker to Bell’s career! :) thats much better than finding form or leading the pace attack once again..

    boring series..only interesting thing about this series is return of Ashish Nehra

    Watch out for Darren Bravo too..he bats like a clone of Lara

    people ignore this series at their own peril.

    It heralds the comeback of Nehra, the last time Rohit Sharma played for India, and the first look the world got of the next great West Indian batsman, Darren Bravo.

    … and please, please stop “the next Lara BS”. There will never be another Lara like there will never be another Bradman, another Tendulkar or another Warne.

    It is a shame this version of Dhoni did not turn up at the T20 World Cup.

    Uncle J, would like to divert your attention to a seies of contest betwen the two coolest teams in the world that has started today. I kow the Ashes are here, but I would bet on the Pakis and the Lankis outentertaining the Poms and the Aussies.

    Here you got the coolest lawyer cum wicketkeeper and the hirsute Adonis. There you got fucking Collingwood and King Probot. I rest my case.

    Hi, funny you say that, before I wrote about Dhoni, the only other two times I almost wrote about this series it was about Darren Bravo and Ashish Nehra, but then I couldn’t be bothered.
