It is really fascinating how people change their minds. The so called experts, some of whom in their cricketing careers fared even worse then the people whom they criticize time and again, make themselves look funny. Till a couple of days before general public influenced by these experts were baying for the blood of these very cricketers. Take the case of VVS Laxman for example, he did not shine this time, but so did so many players. If one series proves bad, we people dump our players. How can we forget the famous series win against Steve Waugh and more recently the win against Australia in Australia. Was it done ever before ??? We should give credit for our players for other games have not brought so much glory for India as Cricket has. Take our performance in Olympics for case study. Let's not forget that the cricketers are also human and are likely to flounder sometimes.
Anyway Kudos to this Indian Team, which always looked different from their earlier version, the bonding, the youthfulness, the never say die spirit was never there in as much as it is in this Team.
Congratulations to Sachin and Laxman. Where many others struggled and continued the ongoing, non-stop procession for two days, the class of Sachin, Laxman and Dravid made the difference with those few but valuable runs where bowlers from either side were unplayable. One does feel that on home pitches three Indian spinners and two medium pacers who can bat decently for a few overs can fetch victories even when defending a smaller totals in the final innings. Irfan, Zaheer, Ajit, Balaji, Nehra, Amit and other aspirants need to pay attention to their contribution with the bat. Besides their effective bowling Anil, Bhajji and Murali Karthik made useful contributions with their bats. Hats off to the amazing Indian spin trio and hearty congratulations to Team India for their splendid victory against the world champions.
batsmen or badmen. in spite of them we turned victors,thanks to bowlers. these bowlers proved that they can bat better than the great 'six'. a nightmarish series. the lesson learnt is bitter and will haunt the crazy lovers of cricket. it is 'cry'cket.freedom to sponsor has changed their priorities and instead of practicing cricket,they practice acting. media report says that our non playing captain found time to sponsor at mumbai when wickets were falling to clark's magic spell. 'dedication' to note. it has become a most attractive profession with least consideration for dedication and performance. they should be contracted to either BCCI or the sponsors. we are anxious to regain the lost glory.
Though VVS Laxman is having enough talent.. He will play a good game only when he want to make sure about his place in the team. After 2001 kolkotta test he got a permanent place in Indian team, Nowadays he is playing good cricket on the need basis. Every one can realise this by going back recent series ...he was playing good game only in the last match of every series. This kind of people should not be in the team.
india was superb .they deserve every bit of it.it was a collective effort. at the same time,hats off to the aussies. but,we have still a lot of thinking to do. but,i think we will recaptulate our form. jai hind.
I think it is right to give the credit to spinners trio. But it should not be forgotton that it was a bowlers pitch. 40 wickets falling in two days was an unexpected thing.
The only people who should get due cresit for their efforts are Sachin and Laxman. On such a trck picking up 120 runs with a brilliant 85 runs partnership, and with 15 Fours and a Six was outstanding.
Last but not the least all the cricket enthusiast who were cheering for India after the series loss. Who still had a faith in Indian Team.
hello, i am ijaz from malad wants to tell you that our indian batsman are not performing well at present.i thought that after having the world no. 1 batting line up how the indian batsman playing. In the second inning if sachin and laxman did the partnership of more than 200 then the chances of india to win was increase. The target was not good for the australian team but all credit goes to our indian bowler harbhajan,karthik and kumble. They bowled brilliently and got out the australian batsman only for 93 runs
One of the greatest win in history of indian cricket. before anil; kartik is bowled ; the decision of rahul is great.It is fantastic to see in indian cricket. We show to the world our attitude is not depend upon seniorism.
