Fact is fact !!! Captaincy matters alot. Why was laxman unable to reach Semi.s atleast ?? T20 needs agressiveness...which is absent with Laxman. He is a good player but not a capable captain.
Re: Its not to degrade Laxman, but Gilli should b da captain 4 DC

mr. ravindra last yr gilly also captained in half of the match bt tht could nt make difference. this yr it ws team effort tht make them to win the tournament.laxman is nt T20 material bt u cnt blame him for everything.

ur stmt doesnt make any sense. do u think all the runs made by sachin/dravid r worthless? chck the records n then bark in the forum. DC won the IPL this time n ppl r giving all the credit to gilly. they mst know that in last IPL gilly ws captain in half of the matches and still DC ws not able to win matches.DC won bcoz of hard work of the whole team.

Only Mumbai Indians & KKR did not reach to the semis out of total eight teams. This year they were at 7th & 8th. See next year they enter to the semis.

I am sure you are a Bengali who is bitten by SRK's replacement of your beloved Ganguly.

Afridi has no business in commenting on IPL - Pakistanis have been barred by BCCI in the wake of terror attacks in Mumbai. Why this fool is still commenting on Indian cricket? Perhaps it's a case of Khatte Angoor (Just like Miandad)!

why not ? he has played in ipl 1 and he has seen what goes inside the ipl. just becoz he is from pakistan and play from pcb which is in deep crisis, this doesnt mean that he can talk on ipl. then why bcci has asked for Raja to do professional commentry thru ipl2.

GOD is only one who created the heavens and the earth and all between them. He knows everything what we conceal and what we say....He is beyond our comprehension..He is MOST MERCIFUL towards his creatures.
He is unborn...He exists when nothing exists and will remain when nothing exists!. He sees all and hears all and accepts his servants plea and responds with a higher reward!!. He is my LORD and Iam the servant of him!

There is no incarnation concept exist...it is manmade concept!
Yes Afridi is correct and the results prove.Still some bloggers are irrational to acclaim his point.Dont know how the topic of religion or country comes here.I think India runs on only a few brains, going by the majority of blogs in rediff.
Re: Re: Damn correct
by Lucky on May 26, 2009 04:50 PM
Agreed to a certain point. But having best captain and zero contribution from the team wont win you matches.Yeah india runs on few brains but ur country runs a brain factory which produced IPL taking cricket to next level. Ever some one imagined in ur country taking cricket to next level.

You cannot measure a player worth by 20-20.Test Cricket matters most than any format.20-20 anybody can slog.
Re: Re: Overly hyped players
by Lucky on May 26, 2009 05:04 PM
They may not fit for 20-20. But they r not overhyped. What ever few successful test innings or matches they played in australia...can any other player wud have dreamt off. They have saved our face on so many occasions which nobody in indian cricket ever did. Ask few t20 sloggers atleast for 5 minutes in test cricket in australia. Its agreed that Laxman is not agressive.
It is the pitches in South Africa which helped Deccan Chargers to Win the Competition.Gilli was also the Captain in the First Edition when Laxman was injured after the initial first few matches,Why could'nt it succeed then?Laxman is a Class Player and above all nobody wants to lose,Afridi keep your 9 holes shut,do your understand,Psycophansing(Chamchagiring) Gilli will not help you, Afridi to get into the Team.Veeru
HELLO AFRIDI - FORGET ABOUT CAPTAINCY. WHAT WAS YOUR CONTRIBUTION LAST YEAR? 10 MATCHES - 9 INNINGS PLAYED TOTAL RUNS SCORED 81 HIGHEST 33 AND AVERAGE 10.12. IF YOU GUYS PLAY LIKE THIS NO CAPTAIN COULD ACHIEVE RESULT. THIS YEAR YOU ARE NOT IN THE TEAM - THAT'S WHY DECCAN WON AND NOT DUE TO GILCRIST CAPTAINCY ALONE. YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO COMMENT ABOUT ONE OF THE OUTSTANDING STROKE PLAYER OF MODERN TIMES - VVS LAXMAN. DON'T TRY TO COVER UP YOUR FAILURE BY COMMENTING ABOUT VVS CAPTAINCY. BETTER YOU MIND AND FOCUS ON YOUR GAME. BUT YOU SHOULD PLAY FOR PAKISTAN IN T20 WORLD CUP NEXT MONTH AND CONTRIBUTE SAME WAY AS YOU DIDI IN IPL 1 LAST YEAR - THEN ONLY INDIA WILL HAVE EASY CHANCE TO RETAIN THE CUP.

sahi bola beedu. but sadly that's the world. even in our workplaces etc. people cover their failures by passing the buck. all these guys are scumbags. learn from tendulkar. he just does his job and never creates any contoversies via media. if you have a view point i am sure there are enough forums with every team to vent it out.
