In India 3 big players are having experience of more then 1000 matches, and together they made more then 30,000 runs. so need of coach. ask them to train the team.

Forget about the fact Dada is a Bengali, If you follow cricket even you will slap him.Come out of that regional feeling mate, we are Indians.Dada is not criticized because he is a Bengali.he was criticized of his performances and off screen politics

Don't underestimate to Dada whether he play or not play. finally he is a cricketier.U don't have right to comment.
RE:No coach
by Blitzkrieg on Jun 04, 2007 04:08 PM
Its not underestimating Dada,He is one of the best cricketers but that was past, You cant spend ur present days showcasing your past.Sourav is not playing well at the moment, He is aging and doesent deserve a place.he should make way for Manoj Tiwari atleast to keep all you Bengalis happy
make sunil gavaskar as batting coach, and kapil dev as bowling coach, Azhruddin as fielding coach. and make then responsible. If all 3 dept. perform india. india will win.
RE:Sunil and kapil
by Blitzkrieg on Jun 04, 2007 03:00 PM
FYI, Gavaskar and Kapil already worked for Indian team as a coach and have been awfully unsuccesful.Both are very good in criticising others.
RE:Sunil and kapil
by Blitzkrieg on Jun 04, 2007 03:07 PM
what mate? check your statistics, He is the captain of team for many years, and worked as coach for some time when Sachin is the captain of the team.
RE:Sunil and kapil
by Blitzkrieg on Jun 04, 2007 05:01 PM
sorry mate, you seem to be a guy with a little knwledge in cricket.Gavaskar is the captain of team India during 1985 Benson and hedges tournament which india has won.

in Azhruddin Period Period sachin was the deputy but he did not learn any thing from Azhruddin
The Band of blues...err sorry Blue team practising)
Dav: Saurav, saurav....stand up to the fast bowlers, mate! Sorry, ...err Dada, pls stand up and look at Zaheer in the eye!! SG: Kee bolbe Dav? I cant see tha ball, tell Zaheer to bowl slow na? I keep telling him to practise his slower ball with me and he keeps enjoying bowling full pace (120kmph)!! Dav: I say, Zak, try bowling spin to Dada, he wants to practise the slow ball. Zaheer: (muttering....then loudly) Dav, this is the slowest I can bowl. Remember my fastest ball is only 125 kmph, so what can be possibly slower than that??!! Dav: (running to Zaheer, and whispering) Zak, just bowl some spin mate, till we have the next batsmen. And remember, bowl anything but dont bowl SHORT!! Dada doesnt want to mess up his face before he goes for the new Pepsi advertisement! Zaheer: Ok ok I will remember (muttering again).
SG: Dav da, ask some of the local schoolboys who are playing in the next ground to bowl to me, na? I will get more practice that ways! This Zaheer is not behaving himself! And remember pls ask them to bowl spin so I can practice some of my sixes!! I look good hitting sixes to long on...then maybe I will get the Dabur advt as well...please Dav da please! Dav: Awwwright mate! Zak quit bowling, lets have Tinu, Chinu from local schools (under 15 house team) to bowl to Dada!

Good one, Sourav played international cricket for 11 years but still wasnt able to get rid of the short ball phobia.

sastri's performance during 1992 world cup is good example for it. i remember he scored 10 runs of 60 balls as opener. during that time Guys like great batch where almost scoring more than 100% strike rate.
Coaches (Indian or foreign) can help refine a team's on field technique, it's batting & bowling consistency etc. That's not the problem with the Indian cricket team, especially the seniors.
The main problem with the Indian camp was/ is discipline. I was hoping that BCCI requested Udai Hussien to take charge of the team- oh but alas, he's dead.
Seriously, you need a military colonel or a hardcore drill sargent to drill discipline into & drain out complacency, indifference & obidience- out of our senior camp.
Maybe we should send our players to train in North Korea? lol...
RE:Don't they get the point?
by k prasad on Jun 04, 2007 03:03 PM
i think our players are not mentally strong.. when they loose two consecutive wickets then another 2 they will give up in fear!! they nead to come out of it. if he can do this then what more watmore can do better than indian coach will get answered?
RE:Don't they get the point?
by goutham bala on Jun 04, 2007 03:30 PM
Boss, thats exactly what Greg Chappell did, he conducted things like a military camp, and what did the seniors do, they threw Greg out of the team. It won't work with these guys.
Why pay Dav more money to be the coach?. I can be the Indian team coach for half the wages. You know why even If I coach the team or Dav coach the team there will be no difference. Dav is already rich let me make some money too. After its a money of poor cricket viewers.
RE:Make me the Indian Coach?

Players dont take home the runs they score. Sachin and dada have won us matches. Think before making rubbish comments

May be (not sure) Karthik doesnt have the technique of Sachin or Dada, but he has interest and willing to learn and bend his back for his country. so y throw such people away from Team and keep mum with fools like Sehwag, who are not willing nor have technique to bat even though given chances a many

..excuse me, he is not 'overrated' he is a performer, unlike your buddies, Sachin and Dada

by Blitzkrieg on Jun 04, 2007 03:06 PM
You are absolutely right, Karthik is a honest trier and not a passinoate politician like Dada, Our team doesnt need sincere players like Karthik.They need flambouyant players like Sachin dada or Dhoni

Pranesh, I agree that Bermuda won't perform like the Aussies, but atleast we can assure that they will have the process in place for Bermuda to perform 4-5 years down the line.
Thatz what I would like to see with India. Cheers PG

Do you know Cricket you fake named Saurav. Karthik has proved to be a best player in different condition. Show me one Hayden or Ponting in Indian team. But India is producing large number of cricket models.
RE:Does it makes any difference.......?
by India on Jun 04, 2007 02:44 PM
Feel pity for you. Dont be a hero worshipper. Aussies and SA are better teams than India. Have they all score 10,000 plus runs. Dont talk about selfish political game playing players.

Sachin & Sourav were the best NOT are the best. They are well over their prime! make no mistake about it. People like Kartik are going to be the future of Indian Cricket.
RE:Does it makes any difference.......?
by sourav on Jun 04, 2007 02:51 PM
if u think Karthik like people are going to replace sachin/dada then be ready to lose to Bermuda and also be ready to lose Test status
RE:Does it makes any difference.......?
by balbir panwar on Jun 04, 2007 03:28 PM
By balbir If Kartick had played earlier than sachin, dada, then he will have more than 30000 runs and will always be hungry for runs, not like for sachin and dada, both are idiot person, don't resign from cricket becuz of money only.

Dont forget that Dav was a boxing star earlier... he is the only one who can manage the troublesome indian seniors... i foresee indian players coming to the ground with black eye circles...
RE:Best choice
by heaven on Jun 04, 2007 02:28 PM
Dav only has two arms while there are 6 stars....so this is a total mismatch....while he swings two arms, there will be 12 arms throwing punches at him...and all 12 are 'starry' arms...so Dav will fall!!
