only one question
by vinay on Dec 29, 2009 01:30 AM  | Hide replies

had indians played first, and suppose v had refused to play(which i dont think wud hv happend), all (including icc) wud hv blamed us.

n if v continued in playing n after getting out cheaply, critics wud hv blamed our batsman's technique playing on such pitch.

Unfortunately people at high positions are selfish to their bone. Everybody pitched in attacking DCCA preemptive.

ICC verdict is due after several weeks.

Our players are known to give worst excuses
do u remember Sachins dramatics after 2007 wcup when he blamed chappel for indias loss?
How can the coach be blamed?did he catch hold of sachins bat while batting?

players are adults and dont need to put up with bad dressing room atmosphere.
its not easy to create rift unless u hate each other anyways.
chappel for all we know might ve never done all that,its just sachins words against his,plus there was no need to put up with it,they gave him almost 2 years in the room,its not that overnite he turned bad..

yea but then y not kick him out right away,y wait till we loose wcup
plus who hired him in the first place?it was ganguly who thought he will use Chappel as his chamcha like John Wright was..
and all Chapel did was ask sachin to bat number 4 which wasnt a bad idea
u see even Virat Kohli scores a 100 at number 4 but sachin always wants number 1 slot to bat all 50 overs...so dont blame chappel,he didnt do anythign wrong..

When is it our mistake and not some GORAS?
by Raman Shiva on Dec 29, 2009 01:29 AM  | Hide replies

When we didnt make the semis in 99 WCUP,it was the fault of ICC for using the points carry over to super sixes,not Indias fault to loose to ZIMB or play badly
When we didnt make it to second round in 2007 wcup IS Bindra openly says how can team india be kicked out just by 2 losses
When our pitches are substandard and even after warning from ICC a few months back the game is called off fairly,still its not our fault
Aussies have won WCUPs 4 times and Champ Trophy twice,still they are no good cause they are sledgers(as if we dont sledge or slap fellow indian player)
Gavaskar scores 36 of 60 overs and till this day maintains he didnt know why he did that as ODIs were new to him,did anyone ever play a innings like that,not even Boycott
Mike Denness catches sachin red handed with video clippings as proof of ball tampering still Mike Denness is the one who gets the boot.again its not our fault
Gavaskar gets out plumb LBW to Lillee in 1981 and creates a big scene and still its not his fault
People who really care for our country to improve wont defend mistakes and try to improve in every angle
Some moron even said Azhars ban should be lifted cause match fixers in other countries were let off,well who benefits if a match fixer is let go scott free and who gets hurt?is it that hard to guess?
Saurav Ganguly is kicked out of team India,guess whose fault is that?Greg Chappel?so what the selectors like Kiran More have no power the moment chappel becomes team india coach?

gavaskar was known for walking out if he surely knew that he is out. he didnt wait for ump's decisions unlike today's heros who shamelessly hang around n say boast that its ump's duty to gv them out.

so there must hv been some serius doubt in the decision, may b inside knick of the bat or like thing.

v hv seen many bad ump decisions like in pak, or in aus.

and Gavaskar was not a walker,even in Chennai test 1983 he was out and didnt walk Viv Richards was furious and gavaskar scored 236
and in that test in AUS Gavaskar was out,watch the utube video and he protested cause he never made a hundred(at that time 1981)in AUS and he wanted to score one badly
AUS and PAK did have bad umpires,so do we
DO u remember AV Jayaprakash who gave soooo many decisions agaisnst visiting teams
Do u remmeber that umpire who adjusted his hat while giving out to Jadeja and midway decided not to?this was in SLanak India series in India 3rd odi,go check the facts..

Sachin and India flop in 2007 WCUP and guess who gets the boot and the blame?Greg Chapel,sachin comes out in the media and says he was hurt by chappels comment and for what?asking to bat at number 4 to guide the team to win.give me a break,when are these guys ever gonna stop blaming a gora for their mistakes

The list just goes on

So whose fault is it?When are these whiners like Gavaskar and Chetan Chauhan ever gonna admit the mistakes and stop acting like victims,its never our fault is it?Its always some GORA who is the culprit,ive lived in USA for 11 years and not once did i ever see a GORA do anything atrocies against Desis,not that all Goras are good ,my point is u just cant hate one race and blame them all the time...
Today Sunil Gavaskar says Stuart Broad gets off cause his dad Christ Broad is buddies with other match refrees,if thats the case Gavaskar is buddy with Cheeka bai who is chief selector,can we call bias in every selection of Srikanth,Cheeka has admitted so many times that he isa big fan of Sachin,so that means he will be biased in selecting sachin over others?not that i am saying sachin dont deserve but if Gavaskar thinks Match Refrees are biased then so can anyone in power

one more point of disagreement.
just like u say gav was politician but definitely a good batsman.

same way, accept that although ausis might hv won 4 wc that doesnt mean that they r not sledgers. this 2 things r separate. they r good in ckt but bad in behaviour.
in fact, they r cheaters taking bump catches (ponting). when they fear of losing, they start negative tactics (nz series of 2002(?)).
they do the mischief but opponent players r banned or fined.

Yes CHappell wasn't at faults and I agree with you on that as I myself questioned Sachin's position on that wc debacle.. But then again, Gawasker is more right then wrong about his criticism of Goras..

I really think you need to read more about Aussies as they have ruined the game of cricket. They're pack of roudies as even Mark Taylor said that they need to work hard on their attitude to change 'Ugly Aussie' tag

i dont potray goras as saints,but u cant blame them for everything
the list i gave u mainly about the wcup flops of team india and then blaming ICC or Chappel was ridiculous

i really think u guys need to read more about Gavaskar,he sure wasnt a walker,i mean that LBW,u gotta see the clipping in Utube.
Gavaskar is not a saint,he is hot headed and has caused so much friction in team india during his tenure as captain,he tried to wreck Kapil dev and lot of North Indian cricketers
He was openly biased but a great batmsen.dont get confused.
ANd he openly supported Pak in 1992 wcup that he got a dinner at the prime minister house there.
he got out purposely in semis 1987 to avoid playing in Eden Gardens,everyone knew it too..read those articles and then decide for urself..

denis found 6 inds with fault but none from sa. saurav found guilty just coz he was capt.

what abt perth test between ind vs aus and now wi vs ausi.

ausis were never found guilty but only ind then and now wi players r found guilty.

problems is not with our mistakes but of biased treatment to us.

if u ban bhajji then ban symonds also. but u let go symonds with some warning or 5% fine (mockery) n ban others for 2 tests or odis????

ViNAY:

Punishments are proportionate to one's actions in the incident.

Just because two players are involved in an incident does NOT mean that both have to be punished similarly.

By that logic, if Bhajji slapped Sreesanth, you'd want Sreesanth banned and fined 1.5 Crores... right? :)

if we find the clip for that Jadeja incident when the umpire adjusted his hat that will be ultimate,i still cant forget that.
the worst thing is Ranatunga went and shook Jadejas hands when he scored a 50,that was soooo obvious he was out,the nick almost flew to slip and Jadeja shouldve walked to save the umpire some flak
AV Jayaprakashs umpiring in delhi test 1999 against pak was worse than Steve Bucknors...

And im not saying anyone has to walk,but dont drag ur batting partner along with u to the dressing room like Gavaskar did in 1981
Plus Gavaskar sure is jealous of AUS as they have won 4 wcups and his buddy sachin might never get that feeling,i mean sachin has played in 5 wcups and never been part of winning team so it sure bothers gavaskar
plus Gavaskar has had many run ins with Goras but shamelessly goes to Chanel 9 commentary box for money

bowlers right to refuse to play
by vinay on Dec 29, 2009 01:04 AM  | Hide replies

bowlers shud also hv right to refuse to play if the pitch is batting paradise with no help to bowlers.

bolrs shud refuse to play on pitch which gives 400 runs a day without losing wkts. y only batsman hv become cry baby. y not allow bolrs also hv a say in pitch condition.

it was called off cause there was danger to batsmen(do u know batsmen the one who weilds the bat and did u c Dilshan got hit badly and Jayasurya someone who played for 20 years compared to u who hasnt played evne a single day thought it was too dangerou to bat on)
when a batting paradise lets u score 400 runs a day the bowlers dont die,and if u want to protest for that then u apparently know nothing

Chetan Chauhan is trying to act smart by playing the blame game,he must be ashamed to say he has no clue as to how to prepare a pitch and followed orders,he played the game at the highest level and not mr Daljit singh who he is pointing the finger towards.

It took them 24 overs to discover that ? If it is dangerous,it is dangerous from the begining not near the half way mark.In fact it should be dangerous from the very first ball. They lost 5 wickets and thought that they cannot win and made a decision not to play.

Or is it that you want to say they were trying whether some one dies within the first 25 overs or not.

They just chickened out.

A match in Indore was called off within the first 5 overs during 90s.

The pitch was dangerous, the match went on for 23 overs because the umpires and players wnated to see if it would settle down. It never did and continuing till a tailender is sent to an hospital is not the right solution.

Imagine Mendis facing a Zhaeer Khan or Malinga hurling something at Nehra . It was a below standard pitch. No questio of chcken and egg. It was DDCAs fault and they should be banned for 100 years.

The next pitch was also underprepared. Plus it takes 3 hours to get all the microphones, stump vision moved etc.

Imagine Mendis facing a Zhaeer Khan or Malinga hurling something at Nehra . It was a below standard pitch. No questio of chcken and egg. It was DDCAs fault and they should be banned for 100 years.

ind team has faced such situations in nz ausis.
never our batsman complained.
in fact, our critics glorified our batsman's lack of technique to play on bouncy pitch.

get a tape and watch the game first.. It wasn't bouncy but uneven as balls staying very low or bouncing awkwardly..seaming in either direction off the cracks

Absolutely right..

Chauhan is adding idiocy to incompetence.. And now blaming Lankan for the fiasco..

The DDCA pitch drama is going on since IPL time and still not fixed. Shame on the system..

Once u start using Race as a excuse and think ur victims everytime a decision goes against u then u will always whine and if u notice most people do agree like u and me and blame DDCA but the biased ones always drag Goras into it and blame them for DDCAs incompetence..
Gavaskar usually does the whining this time his ex opening partner has done.

Chauhan is a typical Indian politician. Now Gawaskar whine but he always had solid reason and able logic to back it up, unlike what Chauhan is doing here. Chauhan's action is more comparable to Rantunga as you mentioned. He is basically trying to pass the buck and set Lankan up to take all the blame..

Singh:

Sorry. Watch that whole clip on You Tube.

Haddin and Johnson were NOT the perpetrators.

Benn first ran into Johnson and almost pushed him off his feet.

Haddin pointed out to Benn that he was wrong. The matter should have ended there.

Benn acted very hurt and kept "cooking" that incident throughout the over.

Benn went on and on with his verbals and gesturing... he didn't give up when everyone else had moved on with the incident..

Yet you feel that Benn was instigated? :)

Curious sense of justice YOU have got... ;-)

above article should be right
by bikas on Dec 29, 2009 01:01 AM

if batsman had allready faces new ball then i think they should play another 25 over too.
it should be obviously right that there is something for bowler.

ind shud b declared winner
when lankans dont want to continue the game, then opponent ind shud b declared the winner.

when porkis capt inzi carried his team out of oval test, eng team was declared a winner.
agreed with chautan, that there hv been many instances in world ckt, where pitches hv been worse than this kotla pitch. but no team has refused to play.

lankan batsman r responsible for the fiasco.
nowadays, its fashion to score heavily on flat bed pitches. but if bowlers start getting help from the pitch, every1 start cursing curators for the 'bad' pitch.
