RE:aussie by keith pavlak on Dec 17, 2007 08:28 AM hmm so how does it feel to be treated as an Animal in brisbane? Dude you must either not know what you are talking about or have the lowest self respect possible..on one hand you say "they never treat others as human" and then you sign off as "Rajeev from brisbane" ...if things are so bad..why are you in Brisbane?    Forward   |   Report abuse

RE:Statistics tell the full story by rajan bar on Dec 13, 2007 02:28 PM Autralian infrastructure for sports like Cricket, Hockey,Rugby is probably the best in the world.there, in almost every small town or city suburbs, or main cities, there are large number of well built and well maintained grounds for the children to play. participation in sports is encouraged by schools as well as parents. is it the same in india? NO. hardly anywhere place for the children to play. horrible infra for sports. parents want their children only to become doctors and engineers and look down on sports as a career choice.their sports budget for each member of population is way ahead of what the Indian Govt allocates for us.over and above that the nepotism and politics that prevent the quality players from coming to top easily.ok! so, lets analyse what we have, why we are not the top team and how to improve rather than commenting about a functional eam. for all you know, Warne WAS acting as a super star, had his running ego battle with the coach apart from having his drug/bookie contacts,Ponting was dropped for a match after a late night fight in a bar,Andrew symonds's drinking problem .It is not as if Sachin or Rahul or Yuvraj or Dhoni telling the fans to treat them as super stars. it is the media who are hyping these guys and making a business out of it.our team is better than Pakistan, NZ( 4 players dropped for smoking marijuna on tour), Engalnd( Fredalo-World cup) and west indies in terms of player discipline and on par with the best. Cool.    Forward   |   Report abuse
RE:Statistics tell the full story by Birbal on Dec 16, 2007 07:32 PM I have seen another significant difference.....in India, from childhood we play more of One-day cricket like game....and in Australia they play more of unlimited overs cricket more like Test cricket......i think this helps them become a better cricketers besides other things like infrastructure etc.    Forward   |   Report abuse
RE:Statistics tell the full story by Ford Eals on Dec 14, 2007 05:49 AM Let's no kid ourselves. Our problem is we never produced match winning bowlers. Even Kapil Dev was manacing till 1983-83, after that he wasn't good enough to single handedly win matches. Kumble is good only on tailor made wickets. Aus won because they consistently produce match winning bowlers. WI were champs because they had great bowlers. 1st and foremost you need good bowlers to win matches. I am not saying team effort is not important. Pak is a classic example of a team that under achieved even when they had excellent bowlers like Wasim and Waqar. And I think the reason is lack of team efforts! But in case of INdia, it's always lack of match winning bowlers.    Forward   |   Report abuse
RE:Statistics tell the full story by Ganpat Rai on Dec 14, 2007 09:02 PM I agree with your comments... After all, in order to win a Test match you HAVE to take 20 wickets, and we have (in the recent past) seen many examples of our bowlers' inability to force results unless the track suits them. That would explain the low winning percentage record --- many matches which would have been won, have ended up as draws.    Forward   |   Report abuse

RE:SACHIN IS GOD by rocker on Dec 12, 2007 09:48 AM we find a 16 yr capable of holding a bat then we push him into intl cricket n chant his name for the next 20 years.... so that he ll make all the records... if he was born in australia probably he would have made his debut when he turns 30 n made none of these records..... its not abt individuals in aus... sometimes, its form more than class .....    Forward   |   Report abuse
RE:SACHIN IS GOD by Ram on Dec 13, 2007 07:13 PM Ponting came in when he was 21 years old when he made his debut and we all know that he took sometime to settle down in international cricket. Sachin took 17 tests to score his first test hundred. And, why do you forget he scored a hundred at Perth, which Allan Border has praised a lot. At that time he was 19 years old. Introducing Sachin so fast a good move and credit to him that he has survived so long. His best days have been when he was young. Cricket is a game for the young.    Forward   |   Report abuse
