boosting morale of Team- India - a sure shot.
by Raj mehta on Sep 23, 2005 08:42 AM

Whenever Team India happen to perform awefully against standard teams in series at a stretch,for say,an year or so, make it to play against weakest team of the world.It will not only win but many,including some nonperforming players,will create RECORDS.This can atleast be done by BCCI if it has no courage to remove nonperforming players ie.its CHAMCHAAS.Now,after such a win,it will be in a comfortable position to loose another few sets of series,followed by above dose and so on.

Afterall a Win!
by Umasutarao C on Sep 23, 2005 08:27 AM  | Hide replies

Dear Sir,
A win is a Win, even against minnows! But it doesnot deserve any special acclods! Nor this deserves any merit to Ganguly's captancy! His painstaking Century and a win against a tooth less team are no passport to his continuance as Captain.
Congratulations to the Indian team for bringing the first series win after nearly two decades, never the less.

First Overseas win?
by D Parthasarathy on Sep 23, 2005 05:38 AM

I wonder why everyone keeps saying this is our first overseas win aborad in 19 years. What about our win in Pakistan in 2004?

Should Team India be joyous on their first overseas win after 19 yrs and that too against a team( i must say minnows) which is reeling and whose test status is under scanner

India wrap series with 10-wkt win
by Shankar Srinivasan on Sep 22, 2005 10:27 PM

Indeed...! Against a third-rate opposition which is even worse than our Ranji teams!

Given the political way of the BCCI functioning, I'm sure this win against a lame team will considerably elongate the careers of the likes of VVS Laxman and Ganguly....

India's win over Zimbabwe
by Ateesh Dwivedi on Sep 22, 2005 08:07 PM

Your report wrongly states that this is India's first series win overseas in the last 19 years. India beat Pakistan in Pakistan early last year 2-1.

Secondly, India needed 19 runs to win this match which were scored in 2.2 overs, as against 18 runs of 3.2 overs as stated in the report.

Mistake 1 India won in 2.2 overs not in 3.2 overs .

Mistake 2 Its India's first series win in 19 years out of subcontinent, not overseas.
