Editing mistake Sudhir?Dada would have so,hence included in the 15.Will come down the order.
i remember 1983 series against West Indies at home for kapil's 9 wickets at Ahmedabad. yes west indies defeated india in that series both in tests and onedayers. india had just defeated them in wc final earlier that year....india lost oneday series 5-0 to them..and what to say of mohinder in that series..if u remember mohinder had done extremely well against west indies fast bowlers in west indies earlier that year..so they studied his style and got him out easily in return series...mohinder's scores were in binary in the series.
I am from Andhra Pradesh.... so it does not mean that i will say that VVS Laxman is better than Don Bradman or Lara or Sachin...or so... A realistic view is necessary....with no proper reasons sourav is being sipported by these people in west bengal... i find only a single reason for this one... ............... he is a bengali....
When he is in power he really played kick boxing with sachin and kumble altering their postions and keeping kumble on the bench....
People say that he is a very good player of spin.... give me a single instance when he played shane warne with disdain...
its show time and show men like sourav attract attention... a strike rate of 73 for an opener .... is ok... but not that good to see say that he is aggressive... agression does not mena that we will remove shirts or we will shout at our will on fellow players or having ruffled with opposition players unnecessarily and getting fined... Agression should be in implementation.... Ganguly is branded agressive by his erronous behaviour .... All Prince's admirers shud look at all the above statements and once again rethink before you say that sourav is so and so...
