There are lot of things to talk about when it comes to cricket. All of u know india under the captaincy of rahul dravid won a rare test series win over england in england and registered it's 25th overseas win. Immediately after this win india lost the first ODI by a huge 104 run defecit.A loss like this just after the test victory can break the confidence of the whole team.
In the first ODI captain "Rahul Dravid" made a fucking decision to bowl on a "batting" pitch as said in the pitch report. This was the first main flaw for the loss of the match. No other captain will agree to bat under lights where there will be more swing than in the daytime.I also suggest a change in the captaincy.
when elected to bowl the indian bowlers were been hit to all corners of the ground especially "Agarkar" who was the one who was the one completely out of form and needs a break. piyush chawala the young leg spinner needs experience so he can't be blamed. zaheer and r.p. singh where the only bowlers who pose some threat to the english batsman.
The english batting especially cook who got is maiden ODI ton was playing superbly that nobody will say that this is his maiden ton he placed his innings so beautifully with good shot selection and some gorgeous drives.He is sure the rising star for england well supported by bell the man of the match. The english posted a daring 288only for the loss of two wickets owned by zaheer and r.pingh each.
the indian batting failed very badly as none took the responsibility to carry on the innings. The wickets at regular intrevals made it easy for england. James anderson was the destroyer in the indian batting order as he got 4 wickets, well supported by other bowlers. flintoff had a good run at his comeback match.
so overall it was england england......... everywhere in the whole match. so i hope the indian team will recover from this and play well in the second ODI.
