i don't understand that how can u win a match with just two pace bowlers !!!!! i wonderr what wrong has agarkar done not tu win aplace in the X1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
VRV is getting chance because he bowled the luckiest delivery of his career, that hit ganguly on his helmet and it pleased More and Chappell so much, he becomes an instant fovorite :-) What a way to get selected!
Is't Mr Holding being a bit too harsh on the Indians(calling their tactics fool hardy) considering the fact that the Indians played GREAT cricket with lot of character , the numerous LBW shouts which went against the indians and the fantastic performance of the extra members in the West Indies team(umpires/Match refree)?
Hope he realizes that the Scoreline could have very well read 2-0 .... He'd do better to make sure WI plays better in the future tests instead of glorifying them...
The real reason for India losing has been the bizzare selection of VRV Singh. He has never looked like taking wickets and the numbers speak for themselves - he has taken 2 wickets in his 4 innings - both non-specalist tail-ender batsmen. In comparism Sehwag has taken 8 wickets in 4 innings and he is not even a bowler. In effect India with VRV Singh have been playing with 3 bowlers, not 4.
Michael is correct. Had there been either Harbhajan or Irfan in the 1st test, India would have romped home with a grand victory. Rain played the spoil spot at St. Lucia and snatched away a grand victory from India. We wiish best of luck to Rahul and his men to do well to win the 3rd test. A word of praise for Lara and Chanda Pal to stand like rocks and save thematch for WI. K.Mallick
i agree,Indians are a bowler short but the reason is the non inclusion of Ajit Agarkar. with him India could have won both the tests with four bowlers i question the wisdom of the men who dropped him!
