Dhoni wants to come 1 down and screwing Raina's form ...like sachin wants to open to maintain his record and screwed Ganguly batting form.. Only difference, Dhoni is winning or somehow contributing ..
Sehwag Gambir Raina Yuvraj Dhoni Y Pathan I Pathan Harbhajan P Kumar Ishant RP Sing/ Z Khan
and if one of the batsmen fail then Rohit comes in. plus feel that India has a solid batting line up and with the likes of the Pathans, Harbhajan, P Kumar and Zaheer when he plays you have potential big hitters.
We don't need an extra batsman but what we need is diversity in our bowling and also good death bowling ... which we have been suffering.
Think would have P kumar and I Pathan open the bowling and have IShant come in first change and 12-16 overs. Depending on the conditions either have harbhajan death bowl with Zaheer when he comes back or sellect which ever bowler that seems to be in the zone. Plus players like Raina and Y Pathan can give you a few overs depending on conditions and match situation.
What you don't want is going into match and one top bowler is taken to the cleaners and you have to fall back on part timers who might also travel far!!!

again please dont mix politics.
yes indeed sachin fravid vvs are not better players than yuvi n dhoni but they are really genius cricketers.
but for this format of game we need young legs who could just dive run and take catches at absolutely brilliantly which i think the old warhorses may find diificult...
so i think this team is the best team to platy t20 at this moment of time

You are th kind of people who first look for Hindu-Muslim divides. And if that is not there;then you look for North-South or caste divisions. And then you crib and say that the Aussies are racists!!

but he's better than harbhajan!!!he slaps his own team mate!! how manly ain't it!!(being sarcastic)
Re: Re: Re: Why not including Sreesanth
by deewaker pandey on Jun 02, 2009 04:38 PM
ya u r right. harbhajan is too much tht time bt he never hide his performance bcoz of his such arrogance nature. where as sreesanthis unable to porform in that way. he only speaks even he knows that his place is nt secure. remember in match betwn punjab-chennai, hayden go after him n hit 3 sixes and on last ball he got out while trying to hit another 1. then sreesanth has started showing his agresion. it ws foolish. instead of showin tht he mst b tryin to bowl wid good line length. he mst b showin agression after dominating the batsman n nt when he is being punished by the batsman everywhre. ye to besharmi hai bhai.

if sreesanth will concentrate on his boling only he could b a dangerous in comparision to other bowler of india. we hv seen in past

its bowling u dumbo....anyways spelling mistakes apart....sreesanth is much better than the bh*yya bowlers of UP like RP and Praveen....if he were not a SOuth Indian he would be in the team now....why was bhajji let off so lightly after the slap? this was becoz of typical North Indian politics which has shaped Indian cricket for 50 years now....no wonder becoz of all this bias Indian cricket has been in the middle rung only....south indians like laxman and dravid and vishwanath contributed to lot of critical wins but North Indian media only likes to talk abt the performance of UP or Punjabi morons and keep selecting them at the cost of other meritorious cricketers.....thats a fact and u better acknowledge that.

screw your partision talk you dumbo Sachin Agarkar and screw your english and spelling. Bhajan is spinner and Srisanth is not so don't compre them. Srisanth was failure in IPL 20's. To the extent where opposition where milking him for runs when he came to bowl..
It is possible that he will come back with some more practise but at this time is not the one for the Indian team..

just keep sportsman spirit....he has proved that he is a good bowler by all means....thats his style aggression...majority Indians like it..
Re: Re: Re: Why not including Sreesanth
by Sachin Agarkar on Jun 02, 2009 05:35 PM
coz he is a south indian northies don't like his aggression...they think agression is their solely patented right....if it were dravid or ganguly as captain bowlers like sreesanth and agarkar would be in the team but they are now not being selected coz of northie jharkandi ghamandi dhobi...who will also fall one day from his pedestal....

Having celebrated like a mad man after taking Dhoni's wicket in IPL2 he has finally managed to go one step more than hitting the axe on his feet...he has taken his feet and kept hitting it on the axe!! How do u expect him to be taken in the team!!?!!

if South africa and australia are both being counted in last 4, india stands out, all three are in the same group. SOUTH AFRICA might win this T20 world cup this time
Re: Re: Re: Name the team in semis

Group A - India and Bangladesh can qualify Group B - Pakistan and England can qualify Group C - Australia/WI and Srilanka can qualify Group D - SA and NZ can qualify
Super eight stage: Group E - A1, B2, C1, D2 Group F - A2, B1, C2, D1
Now tell me how can you say India, Aus and SA will be in same group. Anything can happen. Most probably Group E - India, England, SriLanka, Newzealand Group F - Bangladesh, Pakistan, Australia, South Africa
