Ganguly's Failure is Bad Sign for Indian cricket
by AURNOB ROY on Jan 25, 2008 11:15 PM

Sourav Ganguly needed to give a good reply to his critics Dhoni included that he is a passenger.As a matter of fact his form has let him down at present when every guy in the team is shining from Sachin to in form Sehwag to Skipper Kumble to Monkey Chanting Hanuman Chalisa Man Harbhajan.Ganguly was dropped from one day side too and so were Dravid and Laxman but why keep Sachin and Sehwag then are'nt they blocking Gautam Gambhir's place and Jaffer will be meted the same treatment as was Shiv Sundar Das from Orrissa with Perfect Technique.We need logic,consistency and good backing to old players so that the new ones can be well groomed by them.Fact is this Indian team doing well is made up by DADA for he nurtured Harbhajan,Irfan,Sehwag,Zaheer,Murali Kartik,Laxman among others because teamspirit,synergy,facilitation is more important when implemented.I wish Dada and India well but do have some national prestige India must have come back after the dubious loss in the Sydney Test.They won at Perth and here too they must do their best to win-Long Live India-Jai Hind!

Tendulkar is a cricketing genius
by ASHOK BURRA on Jan 25, 2008 07:03 PM

The best cricketing batting statistics are already registered with Tendulkar's name. He is often compared with any other cricketer and is often criticized too.
Many criticize him that he didn't perform on big occasions. This is not true.
Cricket is not Tennis. If it was, then Sachin could have got many Grand slams.
In Sydney he performed, then what other Indians did. We could have saved the test if other Indians have survived another 7 balls despite the fact that there were umpiring mistakes, which costed the match to India.
And, in how many tests of the 16 Australia had won with Ponting and Steve Waugh leading the Australian teams, had Ponting and Steve scoring in all the matches ????
