Dravid performs as a captain but Team India cant and Ganguly can't perform as a captain but Team India can.

So i think Ganguly should be appointed back in a team as a 12th man.....So that we can accomodate one more batman.....

India's Greatest Test Victories
by eco con on Jul 02, 2007 11:31 AM  | Hide replies

The info was really great, but a few more tests deserve a mention - 1)India v/s West Indies 1975 at Eden Gardens,Kolkata in which G.R. Vishwanath scored a spectacular century. 2) India v/s England 1986 at Lord's which was remembered for 2 things -first India's first ever victory on England at Lord's and secondly Dilip Vengsarkar's third successive century at Lord's. 3) India v/s Pakistan 1998 Delhi in which Anil Kumble took 10 wickets in one inning.
4) India v/s Pakistan 2004 Multan in which Virender Sehwag scored the first triple century by an Indian. These victories were no less great than the ones mentioned.

How about losing to Argentina 1-2. I am sure you are a delighted Hoceky fan. Go sulk now and don't bother the cricket fans.

losing to argentina is far better than beating Bangladesh, Kenya, NZ, West Indies (which are not good at any other sport), Sri Lanka. cricket is a pathetic game played in 8 countries, 4 of them in the subcontinent which do not have any sporting pedigree

Shut up. Cricket is a religion in India and it is the second most populous country in the World. As said earlier, get lost in the name of hockey and don't post your asinine comments over here.

Why am i here? How can I not be here. when I'm having such fun reading your pathetic messages. Your appreciation for two symbols of Indian mediocrity (cricket and Bollywood)mystifies me no end. It should indeed one of the seven wonders of the world :)

Azhar & Ganguly
by sajid khan on Jun 27, 2007 03:59 PM

Our writter dont want to inputs names of such a great captians in their eraa

Azhar won maximum number of test match as a captian in his time

Ganguly won more matches as a captian than azhar

so this two captians test matches is really valuable to be there among the top 10

Test Series against England in 1993

Test Series against South Africa in 1996

Beaten Australia World champion in Indian ground

The 10 ever best Test matches for India is incomplete without the memorable test against Pakistan at Ferozshahkotla ground where Anil Kumble equalled world record of 10 wickets in a innings! How could you forget such a feat from Indian Cricket History??

RE:My top 15 list!! (10 is too short)
by Virag Sharma on Jun 27, 2007 11:06 AM
great collection...
u have also made a gud point in highlighting the 15th victory (2004 Mumbai victory over Australia when the whole Australian team was bowled out for 93, absolutely destroyed!!
)..
it was a wonderful display of left arm spin bowling by murali karthik...
australians cudn't handle him....and retailated by saying that these pitches are not gud for international cricket....
i guess the bouncy pitches at perth are very gud for international cricket because they suit the fast bowlers of australia.
