If the rain does't interfere in this match, surely indian would have won this match. And by winning the mumbai match they would have levelled the series with australia. But the rain had gifted the series win to australia.
Saurav should look at his personal performance rather than comenting on other players performance. If he is captian it doesnt mean he should be spared for his effortless and reckless batting , lazy fielding. He should be sacked and Rahul Dravid should be given the new role as captain. I dont understand why he bowls. he doesnt use his resources properly.He doesnt make bowling change at proper time. He doesnt consult with team members when needed. Infact he seems to be jealous of Sachin as he never gives him bowling. He should put India first instead of Personal priorities
What a waste of time, money, resources et al! What in the world stops the administrators from having a reserve day in case of a washout etc. No wonder its popularity has remained limited to 8-9 countries. No more watching Cricket for me!! Whew!! Lets watch Hockey, Football, Athletics..and maybe someone will win an Olympics Medal after that!!
Thank god at last chennai had heavy rain. People wont bother if india win/lose the match. rain is most wanted by chennai people that india's victory. Even if india won the match, the victory lasts till next match start but the happiness of people after this rain will lasts for atlease two months.
Could the BCCI helped india's cause by doing the following..
1) Providing a tent like structure made of tarpaulin covering the whole ground so that whatever rainwater falls on it will be collected only beyond the boundary line fence & then into the gutter..
2) this has to be done immediately as soon as the rain is likely to be coming..
this will ensure that once the rain is gone match can start
but today whenever the rain stopped the groundsmen were mopping the water collected on the covers and whatsmore with a sponge and collecting water in buckets and mugs.. thank god they didn't use the small glasses used in Tamil nadu for serving filter coffee.
when will we invest in things that will raise our standards in front of the world.. we have one game that is like a religion to us can we present ourselves as leaders atleast in that sport..
Rain seems to have taken the australian side, bangalore which is known for so much rain, there was noen when indian was heading for a huge defeat, but when it came to chennai, where it hardly rains, and just when india did well, they have lost it.
