Aus beat India by 140 runs go 1-0 in the four match series.... Ind all out for 159.... Laxman 43
All other paper tigers below 25(cos SRTis already on 16 othewise definitely hewouldve scored < 10)Indian bowlers once again bat a bit...take Indian total to three figures...
Now all indian fans should sing
BARSO RE MEGHA BARSO BARSO RE MEGHA BARSO...BARSO RE MEGHA......... BARSO...
I want to know from you all inspite of presence of Tendulkar, Ganguly ,why they were not been utilized in both the innings by Kumble.I have observed this with other Indian captains also.Why is it so? To me it is a wastage of resources.How do you learned friends feel about the same?

Ganguly i dont really know..but Tendulkar...as it is he is scoring 10 12 runs per innings...if he is asked to bowl and by some freak accident takes wickets...he wont score that 10 also and everyone will say genius whether with bat or with ball...kumble not taking that chance :)
Sachin Tendulkar ek maukaprasth betsman hai.16 saal se khel raha hai ab bhi lara se door hai jabki ponting toh cricket ka baadshah hai,kharab form ke baad bhi tendulkar ke karib hai,chalo jo bhram bharat ki bholi bhali janta ko hai woh jalti tootega.sachin tendulkar bharat ka woh khiladi hai jo mauke par kabhi kaam nahi aaya par dikhata aisa hai ki uske bina bharat ki cricket team bekaar hai.saurav ke baad uska number hai retirement hokar rahega.

Uskeliya be jee tod competition hai - Laxman aur Dravid se - Dravid to 5 banakar apna eligibilty prove kar chuka hai - aur sabse pehle apna kaptan Kumble - jinhone home wicket per wicketless ban kar dave mein sabse a'age'y hein. Its tough to get out of the team, tougher than getting in - bahut competition hai.

y blame Laxman.he averaged 45 in SL (wen the rest of indian batsmen failed)..He will definitely compensate the 0 he scored in first innings(rare failure against Australia)

MERE HISAB SE AUSTRALIA KI TEAM PURI TARAH SE PROFESSIONAL TEAM HAI.TENDULKAR,GANGULY,DRAVID,LAXMAN 40000 SE JYADA RUN KIN GHATIA TEAM KE KHILAF BANAYA HAI.AAJ KE MATCH MEIN APNE HI DESH MAIN HALAT PATLI KAR DI AUS NE.hU HA AUSTALIA AAYA AUSTRALIA. JAI.TEAM CRICKET INDIA MURDABAD.
Instead of making fun at our guys, its time to praise the gallant efforts of two very good under rated cricketers. Brad Haddin and Shane Watson was really great. They took the upon the opposition and hit them hard rather than defending. greatest conter attack in indian soil in recent past. Kudos guys!!!!! Thats y aussies remain at the top the cricketing world and all other nations try to suspect their invicibility. They are true professionals and who ever comes into the team performs consistently to keep their flag flying!!!! Great job Ponting and Co.....
Amongst all praise / bashing of Sachin/Dravid/Dada/Dhoni, how best fans can remember this test
1. Sachin reduced the gap from Lara by 13 / some runs 2. Dravid hold his crease for 4 hours for a fifty. 3. Dada took so many body blows to avert maraunding Aussies bouncer 4. Had Dhoni not dropped catches 5. Had Kumble was in usual self
OR
6. No matter who does well or fails, India chases valiantly some thing 300 and wins the test.
If option 6 has to happen, which has not happened since 1976 (Gavaskar(102), Vishy(112). Amarnath(85) B Patel(55) successfully chased 402 against West Indies in Port of Spain), We fans have to wish good luck only.
Re: Personal Record / Failure OR Win which matters?

Trust Sewag and Sachin to let India down once again. In the second innings I am sure they will play true to form - i.e., only when it suits them, not when India needs them to win the match.
Sachin crawling to surpass Lara record since couple of series, but frequently failing. So we are all requesting BCCI to arrange a “Emergency Series” against weakest Bangaladesh immediately up-on this series. And let him put his papers to Intl Cricket.

I agree. Better to do that sooner than later, and get it over with, so that someone more deserving and capable can take his place.
