sri lanks - pakistan match was on when the entire indian cricket team showed up on the balcony. each of the player was wired to his ipod. the indifference was tangible. like some superstars from heaven descended. each of the player is over hyped. you see raina, he cant even stand up to quality fast bowling. ishant is most over rated bowler. dhoni's ego is bigger than the game itself. how could he promote himself in the top order?? how come indian players get all the publicity while better players from other countries remain 2nd citizens of cricket world ?? medocritiy showed in their poiseattitude when they stood at the balcony....

why India is using Yusuf and Pathan to bowl while it is playing 5 bowleres in 20-20 while all countries plays only 4 regular bowlers other are allrounders.It is ridiculous strtegy as we know one bowler can only bowl 4 overs and the best can be struck our of any 1 over. So y play 5 regular bowlers. Remember strategy of last T20 WC. Dhoni ego this time seems to be too high....Only difference is last time players were ruling the team this time he alone is ruling
i know the bowling department of indian team is weak, so whenever they opting to bat first they shd score 200
against WI, while batting, dhoni played under too much pressure, 11 off 23 balls tells it all, and when the time comes for big hitting he got out and put more pressure on the batsmen to come........
its seems they were flying on high skies, this loss will woke them up.....

What happened to dada? Dada slapped his critics with this bat each and every time he was kicked. Then he pissed at his critics and left International cricket. IPL issue was different. It is not International cricket.But who knows? let us wait for next IPL, prbably dada's last IPL. Do not compare this incompetent arrogant with the great dada. Try to have respect for this national hero, which many people refuse to show, simply because dad is of Bengali origin.
does he fit in the format of the game ahead of rp singh and pravin kumar??????isnt this a big tactical mistake dhoni is making.......or he is controlled by his egos more then anything else????

Hey guys todays match is very critical.if west indies beat south africa (which is quite possible as they have almost upset australia and india), then it will be do or die match for south aftica to win it against India. So if WI win it today then it will be either India or South Africa who will be thrown out of the competition..

Hey u really feel SA can be beaten by WI..hw pathetic? SA gonna win T20 world cup..they are the best team , this tym around...first go n watch Matches boss
Dhoni's strategy is getting predictable for most teams now. I think they should noe revert to another plan. It would not be bad to spring in with some surprising batting order. Here it goes...
The hard hitters at the begining of the innings will try and amass as many runs as possible. However, if wickets do fall early then Dhoni or Rohit Sharma can hold on at the end till the 15th-17th over. At the end Yusuf, Harbhajan and Zaheer can accelerate.
For Dhoni...you are out of form..get out while hitting pls don't waste balls..come later, give the in-form players some chance...
Similarly, in the bowling department, we can use Ishant only when the fielding is spread.Two to three overs can be bowled between Raina and Yuvraj mixed up with Ishant's overs.
