Player 1 : Ayela, yeh pair mein bahut dard ho raha hai. Bahut bhagaya aaj. Player 2 : Arre baba , main to roz ‘Moov’ se malish karta saare joint per . Toom bhi koro.. Lekin dard to mujhe bhi ho raha hai. Player 3 : Listen you both, I am still better off because I take Dabur’s Shilajeet Gold, Jhandu’s Kesari Jeevan and 30plus capsules twice a day. You also do it. Player 1 : Ayela aaj tak kyon nahin bataya , Mere kabhi tennis wala elbow ho jaata hai, kabhi badminton wala groin ho jata hai. Player 3: Arre all of us have to take all required precautions, after we have to play in 2011 World Cup.

Not only Kumble....all Test cricketers should retire...ha ha ha ha ....Only T20 matches...ha ha ...No TEST WEST...5 days , 450 overs ...especially if the pitch is lifeless or dead like the one in Srilanka now... then surely all batsmen can score 100. Even our Bhajji or Kumble can score 50 runs if 3rd and 4th day also no spin happens on this pitch.
Better RETIRE unlimited overs Test cricket or make it limited overs for each innings please
I am reading lot of messages where everyone started bashing DK and comments like he shud be dropped from 2nd test. Relax guys. Having a bad day is part of every player's career and he is no different. I also read something like he use to bat well only on flat surfaces and when bowlers are tired. so funny. Did'nt he face the new ball( without much experience as an opener ) in seaming conditions in England and became the highest run scorer in that series ???
He batted as well as kept well in this tour's practice game but today is hard luck for him. He'll bounce back to his keeping best( he is one of the few acrobatic fielders in Indian team ) and prove his batting skills as well in this series.

hero, stop. what about his performance in previous test match he made world record u know that, right giving heighest extra runs. he is with team since long time but nothing has been proved, if u are saying one tour then in previous england tour one of the test match saved by parthiv only at begining of his career, so this is the time to drop him as he is with the team since last 3-4 yrs continus. and give chance to parthiv

agreed with sameer. ppl compare parthiv's keeping done by him 5 years back but conveniently forget all the hard work n improvement done by him since then. parthiv is the better keeper available but ignored by the biased skipper.

mudhalvan. karthik is pathetic as keeper. dont compare his batting in eng with his keeping. but even his batting in eng is a past. he is out of form even in batting. but still, if u support karthik, take him only as batsman, but never as keeper.

you are a *golden oldie* of this board but nobody talks about kicking you out..how come..?? have some shame aish and learn to respect these seniors..!!
Stop ripping off cricket fans with this farcical Tests that no one in his right mind would set up in July in the subcontinent ! the very sight of India's 90 year old players like Dravid, Ganguly, Tendulkar, Kumble is irritating enough. Add to it 1000s of runs scored against insipid bowling on dead tracks in 100 degree heat and pouring rain. STOP this cricket nonsense immediately !!!!

I won't comment on oldies but I agree with Deepak about setting up a series in July. It looks like a big farce and this is not the first series set up at this time of year, in Srilanka.
Is it held to give the home team an advantage, who are used to such climates?? Who knows. The BCCI 'thinktanks' may be knowing better.

Let tendulkar cross lara in the runs &then he should take sanyas from test cricket as jayasurya did & only concentrate in shorter version of the play.

why dont Tendulkar with all his money start his own league like ICL and score as many runs as he wants?? damn...this guy has become so selfish I remember in Australia he was letting Ishant Sharma the strike so he could remain not out. These guys play records, not competitive cricket. Goooo away Oldies enjoy your money and listen to Frank Sinatra !

With fools like you its no wonder they stage cricket in July in Sri Lanka, when it pours and hot air blows. All these old geezers like Ganguly & Tendulkar has to do is show up for the match ! btw Cricket was never meant to be played in tropical heat and rain. Its meant for cool summers on lush green meadows of England. Play football man !
