KO7- Charu v MOC - (Starts June 18th 10pm Aus time)

**IBA** · 06-18-2012, 07:32 AM

I'll go with MOC's opening combo, but Charu has the better batting line up. WK bat Flower without a doubt. Charu has 4 frontline bowlers and Sobers. Trueman and Underwood were brilliant. Can't find stats of Underwood as a spinner. Still that's a fine record. Donald definitely a top fast bowler. Bhagwat a fine spinner. Have to consider Proctor although he didn't get to play that many matches. Johnston to add variety. Charu has McDermott and Vaas. I'll give it to Charu for having variety, a better batting line up and Border as captain.

Charu has Trott,Harvey ,Border,Sobers and Dhoni behind them what a middle order and with Mcdermott , Trueman and Vaasy also 3 top pacies.

MOC has a slight edge with his batters but charu has the better bowlers for me.

So my vote goes for Charu.

I like MOC's opening combo, but Sobers and Border in middle outplay MOCs entire batting line-up IMO

Charu gets the nod for the captain

MOC gets for the keepr even though just like pundmc mentioned none of them (dhoni, flower) kept for good bowlers

Bowling, I like MOC's Donald. Trueman was pretty good and Charu's XI got variety

Tight contest but i wud go for Charu.

Openers - One of the best combos for MOC. Tick MOC ftw win here.

Keeper - MOC wins it too.

Middle order - Charu.

Bowlers - Charu due to his variaty.

Overall think Charu can beat MOC in this match. Have to go with Charu. If MOC had a decent one extra bowler or allrounder I def gonna vote for MOC. So yeah my vote has to go with Charu's team eventhough I don't like that crap FTB keeper.

Openers - MOC and I think even no3 is MOC. Big fan of Mccabe, he was always hanging out at the other end when Bradman went nuts and sometimes matched him as well.

But then its all Charu, Sobers, Harvey, original AB. Forget about it cuz I dont MOC even gets close to that. But will say that modern AB has the potential to change a game in a session for MOC. Thorpe was also a fine player but the problem is Charus players are just massive for MOC to compete

I would think Dhoni is the better keeper. He hardly misses anything . Flower is probably the better bat.

Underwood and Trueman are big for Charu. Vass and Mcdermott are good support add Sobers and he's got it down pat.

MOCs bowling is a little light I guess. Donald was good. Procter has a great reputation although its not in tests. Chandra was also good but he never troubled guys like Sobers when they played together. And Sobers is key in that middle order.

I go with Charu - He just has a better overral side.

Well my vote is for Charu. Harvey, AB, Sobers and Kate Upton .... enough said!

**no1slcricketfan** · 06-18-2012, 10:44 PM

On a more serious note batting goes to charu for obvious reasons. Bowling I'll say it's a tie. Same with wk and fielding. Captaincy I'll also give to Charu. So even without Kate Upton charu wins. Sorry MOC a very good team nonetheless but my vote is for charu.

good contest,But will go for Channa for his middle order batting,captain and bowling variety although Underwood wasnt a spinner.

MOC has a great WK bat,good openers and a lovelly attck but channa gets the nod

off topic - underwood is being seriously underrated here. one of the greatest spinners of all time imo.

both batting sides are supremely strong. in fact i think they're among the two best batting sides in the competition. i think the moc's bowling is stronger although both have their weaknesses. MOC's bowling attack is seriously underrated here. proctor, chandrasekar, donald and johnston is as good as it gets.but the difference is that one side has sobers and the other doesn't.

i will vote for charu. purely because of sobers.

**ApoCrypto** · 06-19-2012, 06:55 AM

IMO Charu has the better batsmen but the bowling is almost equal I feel. Flower is simply the better keeper so that goes to MOC but due to Sobers I think Charu clinches this. Sobers is a massive pick.
