First of all stop paying out of propotion money to the crickters. They should earn their daily bread like any other common man. Then only they will understand the value of money. Instead we are drowning our crickters with cash,house, car & what not. These thing should be stopped at once. Fix some goals to them & then pay. Otherwise fix some maney as salaried people gets for their work.
During Sehwag's successful days many ex-cricketers pointed out the technical loopholes in his batting style and adviced him to correct the same. Sehwag being a bigmouth replied "Till the time I am scoring who cares?" such was the arrogance. so now runs has stopped and critics are on top. by the time he will set his technique, he would be forgotten and other more talented players will come forward. P.S.: Update and upgrade yourself in good time as bad time will not allow you to do this.
Just make him play against Pakistan freely without fear of losing his position and see the difference. I bet he averages more than 50 in the series. I prefer him to play at no.4 for some time.

venkatesh you are absolutely right.look at his test averages,it is more than 50 & is the only tripple centurian in india,which he scored in style, not by consuming too many balls in 299 for the sake of record.people who talk about is techinique are fools.why great technical players like gavaskar,dravid,manjrekar,tendulkar,etc not able to score triple,nowdont tell me pitch helped him.its allabout un-selfishness & guts.and about world cup,why blame him!he is the highest scorer for india,even he played well against srilanka.though he scored century against weak team like bermuda,why other players like uttappa,yuvaraj,tendulkar,not able to score any matches.this proves he is a match winner &if he plays good knock then only india has got the chance to win.today some young players got chance to play are not playing great cricket.they even struggle to get past 50 .attleast this man has given blazing start when he entered world cricket,he has given run for money that time crazy tendulkar.now he is out of the team bcos of vengsarker,niranjan shah.lalit modi,who want to promote players from west to fill their pocket.sehwag is no doubt is a great player than vengsarkar.i want sreekanth to be the chief selector.

guys (Venkatesh and Sandeep) stop living in the past and come to the present..No matter how great you have been, its only results that matter..Sehwag has not played well for over 2 years, how can you push him ahead when others are performing better than him in the domestic circuit..That would mean cheating the rest of the contenders of a deserved chance and sending out a wrong message that the selectors are prejudiced (i dont mean to say they are not) ....

by sajeev pillai on Oct 26, 2007 11:11 AM
when did he not play freely ???? and the pressure of losinghis position shud always be there .. if he cant hadle that,,then lets forget him and look for youngsters who even though are playing their first or second match play more aggresively and sensibly..
RE:What to do with Sehwag ?

Pressure of losing the position can be handled only by players who play slow and steady innings because they take their own time to settle and build their innings. But it is not the same in case of attacking players. Sehwag, Gilchrist, Afridi are best only when they go after the bowlers and not when trying to play cautiously. If they are in a position of losing their slot they try to play cautiously and their natural instinct of attacking comes without their awareness and results in a two minded shot whether to attack or defence. I have seen a lot of dismissals of late of Sehwag have been of this kind. Do u know that cricket is not just hitting ball with bat. It is also played in minds of players.

He doesn't deserve to be in the tam at all, he has been pulled with the team for almost 2 years after the Pakistan series and he did not do any thing good, just have a look at his attitude towards game and u will see that he doesn't even want to improve it. I recently saw an interview just before the T20 cup and he said that he has been playing good but selectors wish that he scores a hundred in every match then after failing in T 20 just before the match in another interview he said that he is not feeling dis appointed for not being selected in one day team because he was injured and he DID NOT want to join the team. what a looser he is, Even he performed a Tantrik Yagya because he feels that some one has done some magic tricks on him so that he plays bad. Sucker. More over he is such a dirty person that he did not even pay for the tent and flowers he got installed in his marriage ceremony. I saw in another news
RE:What to do with Sehwag ?
by Venkatesh V on Oct 26, 2007 12:00 PM
No player in the world wishes to play for his country when he is injured.Also there is nothing in him saying that selectors expect centuries from him. Why was he not selected for Ireland, England tour after scoring 50's and 40's in Afro-Asian games. That shows the selectors expect centuries from him. U can definitely be a film director........ur imagination is excellent. Did he invite you for the Tantrik Yagna. Even the master blaster after earning so much in his career didn't wanted to play tax for his Ferrari.Still he is not a dirty player and Sehwag is. Good man!!!

I dontthink he deserves one more chance. he has been given too many chances.
RE:RE:What to do with Sehwag ?
by Venkatesh V on Oct 26, 2007 11:41 AM
Sincearly speaking even I dont want him to get a chance so early because it is he who is need of the team. After 2-3 series (especially Aus series) the situation will be a lot better. Then it will be the team that will be in need of him. It's better to get into the team then.
it is clear that Sehwag has failed in the One Day games, but yet with fields up and the Test arena he still a force to reckon with! India should let him take on the Pakistanis in the TEst series and then decide who should go to Australia, cause I feel he warrants a place instead of Karthik. The second wickie should be P Patel and he is also a potential opener in good form! _________hotworldcup.com
RE:He has failed in One DAys not in Test Matches
by klc on Oct 26, 2007 10:22 AM
have u ever seen parthiv patels wicket keeping skills. its really pathetic. no place for school boys.
If he missed one catch of gilchrist/hayden/ponting, that is equal to losing a match.

this no name guy keeps copying msgs from other ppl's old msgs...either full or half.. bloddy typical...shame on u
haha ppl keep saying sachin should retire for ODI cricket n they show faith in sehwag' form.sehwag ka tukka har time nhi chal sakta.....he made some good scores in ODI N TEST macthes bt he never plyed with good technic.....
RE:SEHWAG..................
by Venkatesh V on Oct 26, 2007 10:18 AM
Then why was Raina, Kaif, Ganguly dropped who were playing with good technique. Final thing that matters is runs and not technique. Moreover were the scores that were scored by him deducted just because he didnt play with good technique?
RE:SEHWAG..................
by sajeev pillai on Oct 26, 2007 11:07 AM
venkatesh ,,
when did ganguly have a good technique ???? and kaif is basically a back foot player and always a circumspect against fast bowling coz he's neither fully forward and nor completely back... atleast know ur facts before commenting
RE:SEHWAG..................
by Venkatesh V on Oct 26, 2007 11:29 AM
I have posted my reply for those who are seeing lack of footwork by Sehwag as a big technical flaw. They seem to think only people with good footwork are the best technicians. Coming to u.......It seems u know a lot abt technique ........ student of Boycott.......can u write what technique is after all.
RE:SEHWAG..................
by Hiren Bhavsar on Oct 26, 2007 03:04 PM
i hv a ques.. Doesnt Dravid supposed to hv best technique??? What happend; was it not good enough for aussie bowling? makes me wonder if any other batsman--means whole team should never play..
I am surprised how this Haresh Pandya found a job here. Wonderful article and superb analysis. Do u know anything abt cricket and did u watch the match yesterday. U have written Sehwag was struggling to stay at the crease. Just dont write articles by knowing how much a batsman scored of how many balls. There was no clue that he was struggling. He was finding the middle of the bat and timed the balls well on most occasions. It was only that he could not place the balls in gaps and hence wasted some deliveries. If scoring 9 of 19 means struggling can u write about one top order batsman who got off to flier.None.Even Raina who scored 92 started the same way.
RE:Haresh Pandya ???
by Venkatesh V on Oct 26, 2007 10:50 AM
Without knowing that he could'nt have scored over 9000 runs in international arena. On a day even the best of all can find it difficult to find gaps right from the first ball. I pity ur knowledge abt the game. Hope u get better.
RE:Haresh Pandya ???
by senthil JEGADEESAN on Oct 26, 2007 11:27 AM
but Raina scored some runs. Kaif scored some runs. But Sehwag has been very inconsistent. he nned not score 100s every match. he should not play that rash drive and give a simple catch to wicket keeper or slip always. He should score 40 runs consistently atleast. but he is ot able to do it. Techically correct or not is not a point. he is inconsistent and has been given more and more chances. Bhadhani or Raina were not given so many chances. Time for Sehwag to forget about Indian team and stay with Delhi Ranjit trophy team
RE:Haresh Pandya ???
by Venkatesh V on Oct 26, 2007 11:37 AM
On small information:Kaif scored more runs only after being dropped early in his innings. If that catch would had taken u people might have started throwing tomatoes on him also. Sehwag's recent scores in 50 over games: 114,48,37,21,52,48,8.......are they not pretty consistent. Dont comment that 114 was scored against Bermuda. I have heard a lot of it. Even Ganguly played in that match and struugled to get past even 20.
Why the pakistani put Afriti in all their ODIs?,he is not a player perform continuously in every match,even he is in team,why should sehwag ommitted?.He doesn't waste the balls,if he score atleast 30 runs by 15 to 20 balls,i don't think why they ommitting sehwag.
RE:He is need our team
by senthil JEGADEESAN on Oct 26, 2007 11:30 AM
Pakistan does not ask Afridi to open the innings. he has been made as a finisher. Sehwag cant be used as a fnisher. Afridi is more of a bowler who can swing his bat(Like Pathan in India). but Sehwag should have been like Anwar in Pak. He is a good opener. He took his place in the team for granted and did not improve his game. He is paying the price now.
RE:He is need our team
by Avi on Oct 26, 2007 10:47 AM
It's suitable for T20 man ... But in ODI'd, if all the batsmen (6) score 30 out of 20 balls then India's score will be 180 in 20 overs and then for next 30 overs bowlers will have to bat ... Same reason why Gambhir is super successful in T20 and dumb failure in ODI despite given so many chances ... Check the records if u contradict in Cricinfo ... In ODI's u need patience, technique and experience to build up the innings ... Why india win most of the matches even when Sachin and Sourav gives a slow and steady start ??? Coz they save wickets for later half of the innings ... Any further comments ???
RE:He is need our team
by venkat narayanan on Oct 26, 2007 10:21 AM
afridi is bowling well in leg spin you should go and see his last one year bowling record including 20-20 WC. Please dont compare with sewag he is not in form. please people forget him speak about Raina. he is wonderful Fielder.
