Finally a TAMILIAN makes it!!
by sandeep kumar on Oct 09, 2007 03:20 PM  | Hide replies

BCCI is famous for bias to tamilians, which is why calssy players like badani,sriram,s sharath,reuben paul,d vasu etc where not given the chances like mumbai/north players.
GO Badri..shred the aussies! the whole of TN is with u...nd hope ur the first of many tamilians.

Sometimes we feel BCCI is biased or people from a zone or state are discriminated, but if you look at the issue from another angle, a team can have only 15 players per squad and only 11 players take the field. Whereas we have numerous players coming out of our domestic system. But the problem is there is only room for 15 players. Sometimes a player may perform well but still might be denied a India cap not because this player is not good enough but because there is no room. Remember Adam Gilchrist had to wait till be turned 26 to make his debut because Healy was doing so well!!!
So lets keep these issues such as bias, regionalism etc out. Badrinath has got a chance, its good, we hope he does well.Players like Sharath, badani were good if you look at it Muzumdar, bahatule, ananthapadmanabhan,srikanth kalyani, raju bharathan,chamundeshwarnath and many more have had outstanding domestic careers but got little or more chances with team india. So lets not get bring in this regionalism again and again

Stop being Racists and think about the team
by Mahesh B on Oct 09, 2007 03:04 PM

I have been reading the blogs and some of the comments are purely racists. Be it attacking South Indians or Bengalis or Muslims. Don't be racist. If you want India to win then try to find the right mix. Encourage a player no matter which state or race he belongs to. Aren't they (South Indians or Bengali's or Muslims) in the team Indians too. Would appreciate if people think constructively rather than passing racist comments. We should all have a good read of this blog before before calling any one else racists.

RECALL LAXMAN!
by dc on Oct 09, 2007 02:16 PM  | Hide replies

The last time India won a One day match against Australia was when Laxman made a hundred and Tendulkar and Dravid worked around him.
That was 3 and half years ago! And yesterday's win was an aberration!

Future of Big3?
by Prasad Manokaran on Oct 09, 2007 01:54 PM  | Hide replies

Sachin, Sourav and Dravid: the big three.
They have done wonders to Indian cricket on and off the field. But the foundation for a better future has to be laid now. Cricket is not a memory game. It is played in the here and now. Past records alone dont make the best player of the day.

The player who is able to dominate the oppponent or atleast makes his life difficult - they are the kind of players the team need.

At some point in time we have to start looking away from the past and into the present.

if India has to win, Saurav has to play...look at matches in England and the 1st 3 matches against Aussies in India...

Once Saurav has played, all others can start firing...then Dhoni becomes good, Utthappa becomes a stunner, Dravid sheds of his shemaleness, etc etc.

And here we have various kinds of people (mainly idlis) who want the seniors out...

Ganguly is the star player.. he HAS hit so many centuries.. he HAS been the best on off side.. he HAS performed... he CAN stay on till he dies mate... he IS THE MAN in the country to play cricket for ever... i only hope he doesnt die before he breaths his next... even after death im sure these bengali babus will ask the BCCI to select his SOUL/GHOST...my god.. SOURAV da GANGULY.. has no end ... ofcourse he had no begining either..his is not LIFE... its, as far as it can be seen, just a MYTH...a MYSTERY...oh how i wish i could be HIM... he is THE GOD of cricket..he USED to time the ball sweetly... he IS timing the ball sweetly.. ofcourse the ball has to meet bat.. apart from that he USED to run WELL...no comments now.. THE GOD of cricket doesnt deserve comments..Every thing is so right about SOURAV da GANGULY... only one mistake.. he is INDIAN.. worse, he is a bengali..
