Re: Re: India is best... by pradeep nair on Apr 06, 2009 02:05 PM but in this year SA won 5 out of 7 onedays played , that too incl a 4-1 win against Aus in australia. India definetly a gud side, but SA and Aus have the power to bowl out and blow out a team in such a powerfull way, just see the last 2 games between them. indias top order at their best of form - thats the reason for their recent success, it is too early to say them no.1 as far as i conern SA is no.1 ODI team , and Aus just behind and india 3rd- and that is what exactly the icc ranking say    Forward   |   Report abuse
Re: Re: Re: India is best... by Anurag Rathore on Apr 06, 2009 02:23 PM Even NZ have beaten Australia in Australia(2 ODI's, In last ODI Aus escaped with help of rain). They did it without Ryder, Oram, R.Taylor and Mills. Both teams(SA and Aus) are exposing their batting line up in current series.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: India is best... by pradeep nair on Apr 06, 2009 02:34 PM boss , did india play against SA last year ? i think in a 2 match trst series in india , and it was a 1-1. can india beat SA on their soil, cannt . Aus and SA played each other most of times , so no surprise in that statics. india played most of matches in asia and that too against a weak Englnd and SL team , the only gud perfomrance i can say is test win against Australia and now in NZ But if india to be ranked as No.1 or even 2 , they have to beat SA and AUS in both tests and ODI in away, till then wait    Forward   |   'Report abuse' disabled by moderator
Re: Re: India is best... by Anurag Rathore on Apr 06, 2009 03:36 PM India have beaten SA in last ODI series in 2007 by 2-1. They drew the test series last year by 1-1. Now team India is performing much better than last year. According to the current form of India I can say SA and Aus can't beat India currently. Ranking is just a matter of time. SA and Aus points gap from India is decreasing fastly. By the end of year 2009 we will see new number 1.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: India is best... by Anurag Rathore on Apr 07, 2009 10:18 AM That is my point, we are changed now. Now we have Ishant, Gambhir, P.Kumar etc who never went to SA. Now India is performing 5 times better than 2007. There is no chance for SA and Aus against India. Forward   |   Report abuse
