Against a 3rd rate Paki attack, you batted like a woooos. Look at your atrike rate.Even you century against Himachal Pradesh was like that, just dead batting.
I think you refocus, ask SRT for help.Your ego has already made us a laughing stock in the World Cup, now if you score runs as if this was a 10 day test match, cricket will DIE!

Rahul is a technical batsman. He doesn't play non-technical shots to score.

You must be kidding. Yuvraj has been a failure while opening the batting in the past. He is a good middle order bat. Don't spoil his career by asking him to open.

Don't cry yaar bad umpiring has cost Sachin, Ganguly and all great players in the past and also will do in the future, Dravid is still not in great touch and rather he is lucky to get the weakest ever bowling by Pakistan to get to his 50 with a horrible strike rate, in today's context! He should be given rest and Yuvi should be in.

by gaurav hindocha on Nov 30, 2007 08:39 PM
yaar i don't think dravid should be rested, instead it should be kartik who must step out for yuvi.
RE:Bad Luck Dravid!
by Birju on Nov 30, 2007 08:44 PM
I know he won't be that why I told he should be. Dravid has abnormal strong support from the non-cricketing idiots of BCCI, who rate loyalty not cricketing skills/form as the benchmark to get into the team! Also Yuvraj is not an opener, so Kartick can be replaced by Gambhir, not Yuvraj!

Drop Kartik and ask Dravid to open. One down should be Lakshman, then Tendulkar, Ganguly, Yuvraj,Dhoni should come later. Rao

man relax the guy has played in all conddiitions and also one of the few players to scroe centuries in their conuntries strike rate come on 1/1 imagine 2/2 then tend could not have played the way he did u nderstand the game.
RE:Bad Luck Dravid!
by shyam on Nov 30, 2007 09:53 PM
What i mean he is not here because of political support he has scored centuries against all countries in their home turf. he came in when the first wicket fell and no platform so he played preety well. tend also played his natural game because of the solid platform

Who is this idiot talking about such a great batsmen "Dravid"....?? If he had any political connections with BCCI, he would be playing in one-dayers also. No other batsman has played till date in the crisis situation as Dravid has played.... and thats the reason u call him " THE WALL".. and dont talk about strike rate, its not a 20-20 game. ( atleast use your common sense ).

Mr Legend, Bangalore test will be 99th Test for Dada.. If everything goes right then he will go for 100th test in Austrellia , Melbourn.
RE:laghe raho dada
by Birju on Nov 30, 2007 08:33 PM
Dada is in great touch, rather dravid looked like a liability, even in such a placid pitch with a 3rd grade bowling attack also he could not dominate the proceedings, apalling strike rate!

ha ha i think u have got ur answer from ur question...tell me on wat basis he has performed more than anyone in this team...Wats wrong in the current palyers who are performing & India middle order is stable...no place for Kaif...
RE:KAIF MUST BACK
by I Am legend on Nov 30, 2007 08:16 PM
suresh raina,maoj tiwari,badrinath are better players than kaif..
yes selection shud be purely on performance..but kaif isnt performing well in domestic matches..first he need to perform and later he claim his place in indian cricket team
RE:KAIF MUST BACK
by Mohd Haris on Nov 30, 2007 08:27 PM
Kaif barely is able to reach a 50, and stars huffing and puffing. Besides his fielding abilities he doesn't offer much. We got better players yet. Kaif might be good on foreign pitches, when the ball is doing something, but he has to first prove with performances.

by Jaffer Ali on Nov 30, 2007 09:30 PM
Arnold you are the one who dragged religion in the discussion. Stop thinking everything based on religion, Tendulkar, Jaffer, Ganguly, Zaheer etc all are fighting in the field for India. Please wash your mind or else move away.

What are you expecting? Better search for your own achievements and then come back. Don't try to ride on other's fame.
sehwag is the third highest run getter against pakistan and averages 91 against them. he should be brought back to third test. both he and karthik should be in squad to australia. sehwag did very well last time . karthik doubles up as reserve wicket keeper.
RE:bringback sehwag
by Cool Guy on Nov 30, 2007 07:38 PM
Premraja, Sehwag should first perform to get back his place. No use of getting an out of form player. Past records against Pak do not matter. It is the present that matters. Sehwag should join ICL as he does not deserve a place in the Indian team.

Playing once in blue-moon? let wasim jaffer against aussies and even if he scores one fourth of what he had today? They can get him out inside 4 overs
